Big Dada—the innovative, Ninja Tune–distributed hip-hop label whose roster has included King Geedorah, Run the Jewels, Roots Manuva, and Spankrock—is getting relaunched. The label will be “run by Black, POC, and Minority Ethnic Ninja Tune staff members for Black, POC, and Minority Ethnic artists,” according to a press release. Along with the announcement, the label has revamped its website, which will feature industry advice, mental health resources, and editorial think-pieces. It will also sell merch from “sustainable clothing company Rapanui and finished by London based Black Owned independent embroiderers.” Check out Big Dada’s mission statement below.
Big Dada was founded in 1997 by Will Ashon, who left in 2014. Two releases on the label have received the Mercury Prize: Speech Debelle’s Speech Therapy in 2009 and Young Fathers’ Dead in 2014.
