Hip Hop Program Description
The Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins University is launching a new major in Hip Hop for the Bachelor of Music degree program. Founded on existing strengths in Recording Arts, Computer Music, and Music for New Media. Leveraging our connection with Johns Hopkins University’s other divisions, the new major will seek to situate the literature and methods of Hip Hop at the intersection of critical and sociological scholarship.
