Infrared Entertainment is a Record Label that was founded in 1994 by Paul R. Taylor. In the beginning the label started as a small garage band with featured artist, G-Krawl, Blaq Tone, B.A.M and G-slow. Early 1995 the first label launched album Drivin’ at 65 was released by Infrared Entertainment with artist P.O.J featuring G-Krawl. Today this album still lives on as a Pittsburgh Classic

The small success was short lived, by 1997 the artist G-Krawl was arrested for homicide, artist G-slow was killed artist Blaq Tone was jailed for Homicide and artist B.A.M left the label to start his own.

In 2001 the label re-launched itself by added a new Female R&B singer Fiya (F.I). Shortly after obtaining her, in 2003 Infrared Entertainment was presented with the group called, “Tha Govament.” This group featured artist S. Money, Boaz, Hard Timez, Young Knowledge and Lay War bucks.

In 2004 Tha Govament Tour was launched in 25 states capturing the national attention. Show performances from Pennsylvania to Houston would gain the attention of Universal Records. In 2005 Infrared Entertainment and Tha Govament met with Universal Representative Kay Roseman to negotiate terms of a record deal. It was founded to be in the best interest of Infrared Entertainment to stay independently at that time.

In 2007 S. Money of the Tha Govament would leave Infrared to sign a deal with Rostrum Records. As Rostrum had most of their resources behind the emerging star Wiz Khalifa, the S. Money deal became unfruitful.

Currently Infrared Entertainment now has S. Money and is seeking a partnership with a major label while still searching for new talent.
