The Hip Hop Congress is a 501 (c) 3 Non Profit Corporation. The Hip Hop Congress mission is to use the culture of Hip Hop to inspire young people to get involved social action, civic service, and cultural creativity. Hip Hop Congress is the product of a merger of artists and students, music and community. It achieves this mission in a variety of ways.
Its Chapter Program develops chapters in universities, high schools and communities. Hip Hop Congress currently has 29 chapters. Hip Hop Congress chapters engage in a range of activity promoting hip hop culture on their campus or in their community. Hip Hop Congress chapters produce or sponsor over 200 events a year. Most chapters produce Awareness Weeks: a week of different events focusing on hip hop culture (panels, speeches, emcee/bboy/dj exhibition/battle, awareness festivals, screenings, etc).
Its Artist Program is designed to help artists pool resources, sell music and take advantage of all the opportunities the music industry has to offer without giving away the rights to their works in return. It strives to create an international web of resources and contacts for its artist members. The network is run via regional delegates and a national oversight committee. Some Hip Hop Congress artists include Shamako Noble, The Procussions, Rahman Jamaal, Aloe Blacc from Emanon, La Boussole (Le Havre, France), the Bedouin, and Jacka and Husalah of the Mob Figaz at a national level. We have local artist like Big Will, Big Sin and more at Cal State LA..
As many services within the educational system become privatized, more and more institutions are looking to independent contractors and consultants for program design and execution. In addition, the application and addition of Urban Arts into the education system through youth centers, events and generational shifts is becoming all the more common. Hip Hop Congress, as a national and international organization that is dedicated to its mission, is constantly looking to develop and work with those developing experimental and pedagogically proven methods of using Hip Hop as a positive motivationaland academic tool. That’s why HHC has picked up Education as an initiative and centralization point for its artists, chapters, partners, and donors.
Hip Hop Congress‘ mirror organization, Hip Hop Congress Europe, networks with organizations in France, Africa, England, Belgium and the Czech Republic with the intention of creating after school programs and sharing projects created in these schools in a pen pal-type relationship through the use of technology such as Web TV. Hip Hop Congress Europe is based in Paris, France.
Hip Hop Congress‘ goals are to continue to build these programs while devising creative ways for the three to interact, always keeping its mission statement in mind.
