[Marios]

Rocker-T, the internationally-renowned, ground-breaking, and award-
winning Reggae and World Music recording artist, in association with
San Francisco's Epiphyte Records, announces the release of his EP,
"Luv is the Foundation," featuring five mixes of the duet single, "The
Way Life Should Be," with singer and human rights activist, Joan Baez.
Legendary trumpeter Bill Ortiz, best known for his work with Santana,
Tito Puente, Destiny's Child, and Tony, Toni, Tonι, provides the songs
captivatingly haunting and impassioned melody.

"Luv is the Foundation", is being released as a limited edition
collectable EP on Epiphyte Records in advance of Rocker-T's star-
studded, full length studio CD, "Rocker-T - The Hurban Warrior of
Peace," scheduled for a Summer 2009 release, which also features;
Baez, KRS-One and others.

Rocker-T, who originally hails from Brooklyn, New York and now resides
in Oakland, California, was an integral part of the formation of the
New York City Ska scene in the 1980's and is one of the founding
talents in the creation of the New York City Dancehall/Ragga Hip Hop
scene in the early 1990's. He is a gifted multi-instrumentalist,
vocalist, composer, DJ, performer, producer, MC, and his innovative
and dynamic musical style of singing and chanting Ska, Reggae, and Hip-
Hop is a musical amalgamation term that has come to be known as sing-
jay.'

Rocker-T and Baez first met, and had discussed the idea of recording
together one day, after his rousing and legendary Reggae on the River
Festival performance, in Humboldt, California in the summer of 2000.

Rocker-T, who cites Joan Baez as the most influential musical artist
on his own career, says, "I am deeply honored to have Joan share her
voice on a project that I believe will help lead to a more peaceful
world."

Continuing, Rocker-T states, "Conflict knows no discrimination in the
impact it makes on all generations. Therefore, there should be no age
discrimination on the call for World Peace. Through the single The
Way Life Should Be,' I have issued a universal and multi-generational
call for World Peace to combat the rising tide of indiscriminate
international conflict." "Luv is the Foundation" will appeal to all
ages and musical tastes, as it features a main radio mix and four
remixes of "The Way Life Should Be," in Dance, Down-Tempo, Dubstep,
and, Binghipella styles. "Luv is the Foundation" was recorded in San
Francisco's Pyramind Studios, both a production and training facility,
which supports Bay Area independent music through its label, Epiphyte
Records. "Luv is the Foundation" was engineered by Pyramind founder
Gregory J. Gordon (aka: G.2), and mixed and co-produced by G.2 and
Rocker-T with final mastering handled by Michael Romanowski. The Dance
remix was created by G.2, the Dubstep remix was created by Rocker-T
and the Down-Tempo remix was created by FROST-Raven.

Rocker-T's forthcoming full-length CD, "Rocker-T - The Hurban Warrior
of Peace," will be released later this year featuring a star-studded
line-up of guest performers, including, but not limited to, Joan Baez,
KRS-One, Cutty Ranks, Terry Ganzie, King Django, Soul Medic, MC
Seasunz, and Adrian Xavier.

Another guest artist appearing on Rocker-T's forthcoming studio CD is
KRS-One, who is the 2008 BET Lifetime Achievement Award recipient for
his efforts on behalf of the Stop the Violence Movement, as well as
his overall pioneering contributions to hip-hop music and culture.
