Abstract
The editorial introduces the concept of open access and open educational resources, and explains how these models have been applied in the publication of Global Hip Hop Studies (GHHS), and related ERC-funded projects the 3rdAI Hip Hop Research Engine and the textbook Planet Rap: Global Hip Hop and Postcolonial Perspectives. It then issues an invitation to help beta test and otherwise engage these projects in order to find a way to fund the projects – and GHHS – in perpetuity. The remainder of the introduction then turns to summarizing the issue before concluding with a brief celebration of the life and work of hip hop studies pioneer, Professor Marcyliena Morgan, who passed away recently.
