Welcome to the Chicago Hip-Hop History Project's (CHHHP) Encyclopedia of Chicago Hip-Hop, built to collect and share information about all aspects of Chicago hip-hop culture. This project is designed to help students, researchers, and the public learn about the rich history of Chicago hip-hop.

This wiki is administered by the CHHHP team and attempts to adhere to the five pillars of WikiEditing.

The CHHHP is a Semantic MediaWiki project, which is built on the same platform as Wikipedia but includes semantic extensions that allow properties (variables) to be stored in a database and queried to produce analytical information.

However, on its face, this site functions exactly like Wikipedia, and as such, everyone is encouraged to create an account and contribute. You can begin by browsing by category using the links below, searching for an artist, song, etc., using the search bar at the top of the page, or browsing a list of all pages.
