Taylor Gang Records is an American independent record label and management company based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania founded by rapper Wiz Khalifa. Rapper Juicy J serves as a co-owner and A&R for the label. The record label is home to artists such as Chevy Woods, Berner, Project Pat, and Ty Dolla $ign among others.

History

Initially being Khalifa's fan base network, street team and home to his crew it is currently a full label that holds Hip hop acts, and also runs a clothing line. The 'Taylor' hails from the high school that Wiz Khalifa attended, named Taylor Allderdice High School, and from his affinity for Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star sneakers. In December 2011, Khalifa revealed that rapper Juicy J was now a part owner and A&R representative for the label. The record label also doubles as a supergroup and they announced plans to release an album as a group in 2014. In July 2013, Khalifa signed Ty Dolla $ign to Taylor Gang Records. On September 13, 2013, it was revealed LoLa Monroe and producer Cardo were no longer affiliated with the record label, the latter left the label after signing to Fool's Gold Records.
