Welcome to the Journal of Hip-Hop: a non-profit publication   Founded in 2004 , The Journal of Hip-Hop (JoHH) functions within the 5th Element of Hip-Hop culture: Knowledge. The Journal of Hip-hop provides a medium to intelligently dissect, critique, sermonize, challenge explain, and most importantly advance Hip-hop culture via an educational journal. From it's roots in the South Bronx, Hip-hop has always needed interpreters to decipher its coded messages and pass on knowledge about the culture. The Journal of Hip-Hop publishes short essays, poems, graffiti, photo-essays received via submission; in addition to recurring sections including classic album reviews, profiles of Hip-hop activism, lyrical analysis, and classroom supplements for educators. The Journal is published 3 times yearly ( January, May, September) and available in print and electronic form. (johh 1.5 coming soon)
Letter from the Editor   "I grew up on Noble Avenue, about 4 blocks from the Bronx River Projects where Hip-Hop first organized in the late 1970s. bI was nine years old and in my room, when I first heard Criminal Minded. It was 1986. For the first time there was a music speaking to me. I grew up on Hip-Hop...this journal began evolving back in the late 80s on Noble Ave and Parkchester in the Bronx (and secretly in Rogers Park – Chicago). It’s now 2005, Hip-Hop is coming of age. Hip-Hop has created a dope soundtrack, but music only preserved the calm on the Titanic."
