Spanning two exhaustively researched and stylistically composed volumes, Catch Us Before We Fall Off: a [ch]oral history of anticon is an audacious document of a pivotal moment in hip-hop history.
Caltrops Press founder and National Endowment for the Arts fellow Joseph Rathgeber presents the definitive document of anticon, the first collectively-run independent hip-hop label in the US that ruptured the underground rap scene at the turn of the millennium. Over the course of two volumes and 1200+ pages, Catch Us Before We Fall Off: a [ch]oral history of anticon chronicles the label’s rise between the years of 1997 and 2003, combining a revelatory oral history with a close reading analysis and compelling subcultural criticism. Nine years in the making, Catch Us Before We Fall Off features nearly 100 new interviews with anticon’s founders, their affiliates, and prominent figures from the underground hip-hop scene, analysis of nearly 50 albums, never-before-seen photographs, and a foreword written by anticon visionary the pedestrian.
Release date: September 29, 2026

basically lived on the anticon forums in the late 90's/early 2000's. any of you fools around then? met a bunch of awesome people at scribble jam and various shows, kept in contact with some for a while but have lost touch with pretty much everyone over the years.

Seeing the recently posted posters I thought I'd share this from the pre-order bundle of Selling Live Water. I got it together with the t-shirt but sadly I sold that on eBay ages ago.

I got both of these from Rich (buck65) decades ago here in Halifax, we were dj’ing at an event together and he gave them to me.

The Catch Us Before We Fall Off books have me reminiscing and I finally went to my basement to see what I could dig up. All of this stuff is from either shit that was mailed to me or from shows we promoted locally in Charlotte NC.
