The Black Wall Street Records is a recording company founded by The Game and his half-brother Big Fase 100 in 2002. The label is named after The Black Wall Street, a segregated black business district in Tulsa, Oklahoma during the early 1900s, which was eventually burned to the ground in the Tulsa Race Riot.

The Game decided to help his own label gain success in hopes of being similar to his former label. Big Fase 100, the main co-founder, officially left the label after internal problems began between him and The Game. Since then, the founder went forth to start his own imprint, Brazil and Wilmington Records. Currently the only project the Black Wall Street has released as a group is a mixtape called The Black Wall Street Journal Vol. 1 . The label has a distribution deal with Capitol Records. Former artists who have been on Black Wall Street include: Ya Boy, Eastwood, Glasses Malone, Techniec, Young Life, Cyssero, Vita, and Charli Baltimore.

The Black Wall Street will release The Black Wall Street Journal Vol. 2 during Spring 2007.
