Hip-Hop magazine archiving (Looking to contact rights owners)

Hey GDers, I met with a guy today who is working on archiving thousands of music publications online including all of our favorite Hip-Hop magazines like the Source, Ego Trip, Rap Pages, Blaze, basically everything in and out of print. (One Nut Magazine?) How cool would that be though to be able to find scans of every issue of old music magazine online?

So, if you happen to be an editor or former editor or have any contact info for publishers who may or may not own the rights to any Hip-Hop magazines, that would be a big help. He just needs to get permission from them and usually he can find the actual magazines in libraries around the country who mail him issues that they scan and then send back.

If you happen to know anyone who can give this type of permission or can offer any leads it would be greatly appreciated.

Here is a link to his blog about it: https://kenwachsberger.wordpress.com/2016/09/29/do-you-love-hip-hop-and-rap-music/

He also does this for underground printing from the 60's and 70's as well as for other musical genres.

Many thanks.
