Kold Sweat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kold Sweat were a record label founded in the early 1990s, releasing predominantly British hip hop records. They followed the success of the first dedicated British hip hop label, Music of Life, discovering a whole host of big names in the UK scene: Son of Noise (poached from Music of Life, Katch 22, Krispy 3, Unanimous Decision and Standing Ovation.
Kold Sweat were, arguably, one of the most successful British hip hop labels of the early scene, with their records (and their distinctive green sleeves) getting radio play and selling in numbers that started to attract bigger name labels to the scene. However, the success did not last, and Kold Sweat ceased trading in the mid-1990s, leaving their artists homeless.
