Press release as per Mike & Co.

Mixed by one of the worlds top deejays Peanut Butter Wolf, 45 Live is a nineteen track journey into raps true golden era. Wolfs credentials make him the perfect choice to raid the archives of labels such as Enjoy, Sleeping Bag, Fresh, Cold Chillin, Strong City, Nia and Idlers with skill and subtlety

This project is such a great honor for me to be involved with. This is one of the crowning moments of my music career, seriously. As a kid growing up in San Jose, CA when all this stuff was coming out, I was hooked and half a lifetime later I still am. I can only imagine what these songs sound like to a teenager today hearing them for the first time, just as they probably wonder what it was like for someone like me to have heard them for the first time back when it was all happening. I’ve also always wondered what it was like to grow up in one of the five boroughs in Hip-Hop’s infancy in the 80s. These songs were the closest I got to knowing. Peanut Butter Wolf
