Since then, Stones Throw has grown into a multigenerational, international powerhouse in the underground music scene. In regards to the music on the label, Manak has said “I put out what I personally like and save the rest for the other labels out there” The label has gained fame for releasing acclaimed hip-hop records, including Madvillain's (a collaboration between producer Madlib and MF DOOM) highly-acclaimed〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.metacritic.com/music/madvillainy/madvillain )〕 debut album Madvillainy in 2004, as well as J Dilla's album Donuts, which was praised by ''Pitchfork Media'' with a perfect 10/10 score, saying "It's a widely praised favorite for so many people, and yet there's something about Donuts that feels like such an intensely personal statement". In 2014, the label was featured in a documentary entitled "Our Vinyl Weighs A Ton," which featured hip-hop luminaries including Kanye West and Questlove as it retraced the label's influence upon the genre of hip-hop and beyond. The movie has been given high praise from critics and audiences alike.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/our_vinyl_weighs_a_ton_this_is_stones_throw_records_2013/ )〕 The all time highest seller on the label is singer Aloe Blacc. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stones Throw Records」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
