If you’re a prospective college student and Cornell University is on your shortlist, make sure to make an appointment at the library to see the school’s hip hop collection. Yup, Cornell has an appointment-only collection of incredible rap memorabilia. If you’re not a prospective college student, Cornell was nice enough to digitize some of the collection for your to peruse. From flyers for shows to photographs of parties, concerts, and events in the South Bronx, the collection is pretty damn impressive. Pull up an old school hip hop playlist and get ready to waste hours.
