Cold Chillin' - a seminal hip hop label if there ever was one - has inspired music fans the world over for over twenty years. Now, for the first time, the label's iconic logo (originally designed by Haze) and DuBose's cover imagery of one of its larger-than-life stars, are available as officially licensed tee shirts.

Cold Chillin' Records released many of the defining hip-hop records from the late 80s and early 90s. Most of the label's releases were by members of the Juice Crew, a loosely knit group of artists centered around producer Marley Marl.
