Daddy's Records is a record company that is based in the UK. It was originally set up by billionaire Vincent Elite to ensure his daughter, Candi, had unlimited funds to launch her solo single. However after she left the label after releasing one single, the company went into hiatus for around a month, before Chase Elite signed with the label. The label sold over 2 million records in 2011 alone and is exclusive only to members of the Elite family.
History[edit | edit source]
The label was set up initially for Candi to launch a solo career. However the star didn't like to feel the dependancy on her father, and ended up signing up to Blacklight Records instead, however she is still linked to Daddy's Records in case she needs extra funds for projects. Vincent Elite has revealed that if any of his family wish to release music, he will provide them the money. However, the label is exclusive to his family, therefore anybody not related to him can't sign with the label. He was also known to be angered by his daughter's rejection of the label.
Following Candi's depature from the label, Candi's younger brother Chase Elite was signed up. To date the label has released five singles, all of which have charted within the top 3. Two of these have been #1 singles, "That's Hot" and "Somebody For Me" (which was the 2011 Christmas #1).
