About Stones Throw Records:
Under the direction of founder and world-renowned DJ Peanut Butter Wolf, Stones Throw has consistently released critically acclaimed, left-of-center albums since its inception in 1996. The LA-based label is considered one of the leading names in underground hip-hop circles with a cult fan following around the world.
