Record labels

After a brief reunion, Krayzie again parted ways with BTNH in 2011 citing "uncontrollable circumstances" In many videos he can be spotted wearing a chain that says TL. In 2010 the name ThugLine Records was changed to The Life Entertainment. In order to reach out to more artists and identify the best talent for the label, Conquer The Industry was developed as an internet channel to help up and coming music artists break into the music industry.
