interview IV LIFE FAMILY  (June 2003) | Written By: Lil Jay for Westcoast2k

      
IV Life Records are the new up and coming label from the West Coast. With a combination of the best talent the streets have to offer and a nurturing environment IV Life are ready to become one of the major players in Hip Hop. IV Life's CEO Dell 'Dog' Rowels has brought together the best array of young talent ever seen on the west coast and connected them with veterans such as Big Tray Dee, Snoop Dogg and DJ Slip. IV Life Records are still yet to release a major record, "VOL2: Tha New Breed" will be their 1st major/big release. It's due for release this Summer and has been pushed back since March 2003 due to hooking up with the right Distributor. IV Life released an Independent album in 2002 titled "IV Life Underground VOL1" which featured old material that got bootlegged and some underground gem's like "Maintain" by BG Knocout & Kam and "Get My Bang On" by Snoop Dogg, Tray Dee and Too Cool. Originally IV Life were going to release the "IV Life Family Album" as their 1st big release. But VOL1 did so well in the streets that that they are going to release VOL2 as their 1st big release. The "Family Album" will be released next year.

IV Life Records reside in South Central LA, on Tha Eastside. The IV Life family consists of Too Cool, Young Buc, Tray Deee (from The Eastsidaz), J-Dog, Crisstyle, Jewell (Formerly of Death Row Records) with former Comptons Most Wanted member, DJ Slip behind the boards.

They are also affiliated with Goldie Loc and DJ Mike T (Official DJ for IV Life) of Comptons Most Wanted.

IV Life gives back to the community! IV Life are for the people! they have an annual toy drive and a feed the children turkey drive on thanksgiving, IV Life Records supports the community that supports them!
