Nappy Boy is an American record label founded by R&B and hip hop artist T-Pain.[1] The label was distributed by RCA Records, formerly by Jive Label Group & currently by Empire Distribution. The label's roster of artists includes Gym Class Heroes front man Travie McCoy, Young Cash and Chayo Nash.

In May 2008, T-Pain announced that he would like to turn Nappy Boy Entertainment into a new business venture which would turn his company digital, by releasing albums and songs online via iTunes.[citation needed] The new venture, Nappy Boy Digital, focuses on albums and songs released as downloads and ringtones, with few physical releases.[2][3]

Featured in the Nappy Boy logo is the Florida State Capitol representing Tallahassee, Florida, where T-Pain was born.
