The National Hip-Hop Museum (NHHM) of Washington DC – the world's first Hip-Hop museum – officially launched January 2019. It is the leading organization in Hip-Hop preservation, history and education, offering more than 500 exclusive and authentic pieces of memorabilia, artifacts, posters, sneakers and other rare and historic items representing all aspects of the culture.
