Chocolate City rapper, Ice Prince is set to launch his personal record label while still signed to Chocolate City. Insider reports reveal that plans are at an advanced stage to announce the label, with a number of artistes signed. Recently one of the artistes, Stuntz, released his debut material,‘Ojukokoro’, a tidy rap single. Ice Prince has always hinted he has a record label in the works. In April 2014, during an interview with MTV UK, the rapper talked about the record label.
“There’s Super Cool Cats music, my new outfit, and I have a few artists that I want to introduce to the world. There’s a girl called Ruth and a guy called Stunt. They’re all super cool cats. And there are a lot of producers in that outfit as well.”
Ice Prince will not be the first to diversify his label association, with label-mate M.I Abaga also owning and running his imprint, Loopy Music, under which are signed Ruby Gyang, Milli, Loose Kaynon and DJ Lambo. Loopy Music was created in 2012.
Ice Prince who recently released his a mixtape, ‘Trash Can EP’,will not have a problem with his Chocolate City bosses over the running of his label.
The opposite is quite expected with his label President, Audu Maikori revealing recently that Chocolate City encourages personal growth.
“We are very happy with it, there’s no friction between both labels.” Audu told Hip TV. “Ice Prince also has Super Cool Cats, which is his new imprint and it’s coming out soon, one of the things Choc City set out to do is to be the mother body and create that platform for others to grow and we have encouraged that actively by supporting their projects.”
