Cultivating Scholars & Amplifying Research

Through our Scholars Program, we work with Hip-Hop pioneers and academics. HHEC supports research, historical documentation, and new pieces of work by scholars who amplify the Hip-Hop’s history, elements, and innovation. Our visiting scholar program supports international research, scholarship, and community programming projects. Visiting scholars have joined us from Japan, South Africa, the United Kingdom, Germany, Brazil, Canada, Ukraine, and France to name a few.
