In 1996,
@pntbtrwlf formed the independent label
@StonesThrow Records with a commitment to stay true to his style.
The label’s first release was “My World Premiere” by Charizma and Peanut Butter Wolf, which ultimately became a hip-hop classic.
Since ‘96,
#StonesThrow has been a staple independent label of the hip-hop community and beyond, having released seminal albums from
#Madvillain ,
@officialjdilla ,
@Madlib ,
#Lootpack , and more.
“Stones Throw is probably one of the most unique, boutique creative labels in existence, going beyond the boundaries of what underground hip-hop is,” said
@Questlove on the
@qls in 2017. “A lot of my favorite artists that I listen to on the daily are on this label.”
“The excitement is having a new generation of music appreciate the older music in a new way,” says Peanut Butter Wolf. “For example,
@apiferaband is a band we’re putting out. There are jazz influences and rock influences. You can’t really describe it as one thing. That’s what I want people to discover.”
