Sons of Rap-A-Lot CEO J Prince Launching Record Label

Brothers J Prince Jr. and JS Prince Jr. have formed a new record label with the help of their father, Rap-A-Lot Records CEO J Prince.
The two sons founded Southern Empire, along with their cousin and business partner Young Gun, and plan to incorporate different genres of
music, in addition to rap.
"We plan on expanding into every market and every genre of music," J Prince Jr. told AllHipHop.com. "That includes
rock and roll, pop, and whatever else we may take."
The brothers need not look far to find a blueprint for success. Their father has been a fixture in Hip-Hop since he founded Rap-A-Lot in the mid-80s.
The Houston-based label's roster includes prominent artists such as the Geto Boys, Scarface, Devin the Dude, Bun B and Yukmouth.
In addition to his musical pursuits, J Prince has penetrated the sports market by handling the boxing careers of
Roy Jones Jr., Floyd Mayweather, Clarence "Bones" Adams and Ronald "Winky" Wright via his company, Prince Boxing Enterprise.
J Prince Jr. and JS Prince Jr. are combining what they've learned from their father as they work with him to launch the new label.
The brothers are currently working with new artists and hope to release new music soon.
