Outkast's Big Boi To Launch Record Label With Daughter

Outkast's Big Boi is planning to launch a record label with his daughter.

The rapper revealed that himself and his 16-year-old daughter, Jordan, have formed Purple Kids. The record label will feature a roster of younger musicians but will appeal to all ages.

''My daughter just turned 16 years old, and you can see it on MTV's ['My Super Sweet Sixteen'], where they get cars, and things that depreciate and just don't mean nothing," Big Boi told Billboard.

He added: "I wanted to give my child something that she can grow and build and nurture. So I gave her her own label."

Big Boi is due to release his new solo album this summer which features guest appearances from Big Boi’s Outkast bandmate Andre 3000, T.I. and Jamie Foxx.
