Overview
Internet Money Records, commonly styled as Internet Money, is an American record label and record-producer collective founded by Taz Taylor. The organization combines several functions that are traditionally separated in the music business: it operates as a label for artist and producer releases, a collective through which producers collaborate, a YouTube-centered educational and promotional platform, a producer-focused agency, and an aggregator for music-making talent. Its stated model is built around helping producers generate income and expand their careers using production, collaboration, licensing, and release strategies developed by Taylor and the wider collective. The organization is particularly associated with contemporary hip-hop and melodic trap production. Its beats commonly emphasize prominent 808 bass, programmed drums, atmospheric melodies, and digital production workflows. Internet Money members have contributed production to commercially successful records by artists including Lil Tecca, Juice Wrld, Trippie Redd, The Kid Laroi, Lil Tjay, and YoungBoy Never Broke Again. The collective has therefore functioned both as a recognizable production brand and as an infrastructure connecting producers with recording artists and labels. The label's commercial profile expanded through a series of collaborations and releases beginning in the late 2010s. Its 2019 collaboration with Lil Tecca and A Boogie wit da Hoodie, "Somebody," became the collective's debut single and entered the US Billboard Hot 100. In 2020, Internet Money released "Lemonade," featuring Gunna, Don Toliver, and Nav. The track became the organization's highest-charting release in the supplied reference material, reaching number six on the Billboard Hot 100 and receiving a multi-platinum RIAA certification. The song was followed by remixes featuring Roddy Ricch and Anuel AA, extending its commercial reach across the US and Latin markets. Internet Money released its debut studio album, B4 the Storm, on August 28, 2020. The album featured a broad group of guest artists and producers and reached number ten on the US Billboard 200. It was supported by "Somebody" and "Lemonade," while "Thrusting," featuring Swae Lee and Future, served as a promotional single. The album established Internet Money as more than a behind-the-scenes production collective: it presented the organization as a collaborative recording act capable of packaging producers, artists, and label resources into a unified project. The group continued releasing collaborative singles in the following years, working with artists such as Lil Tecca, Lil Mosey, Don Toliver, Lil Uzi Vert, Gunna, Jackson Wang, Dro Kenji, Scorey, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Roddy Ricch, and Kodak Black. Its business history also includes changes in label partnerships. Internet Money entered a record arrangement with Alamo and Interscope Records in 2018, but Taylor's relationship with those companies later deteriorated. By late summer 2019, Taylor had agreed to a buyout and moved to a joint venture involving TenThousand Projects and Virgin Music, a structure described in the reference material as giving him greater control over the artists signed through the venture. The available material does not establish the current corporate ownership or distribution arrangement.
History
Internet Money emerged from Taz Taylor's work as a music producer and from his interest in creating a repeatable business model for producers operating through online communities. The supplied reference material gives both 2015 and 2016 as founding dates: the introductory description identifies 2015, while the history section says Taylor started Internet Money in 2016. Because these accounts are inconsistent, a single definitive founding year is not assigned here. From its beginnings, Internet Money was designed as more than a conventional record label. It combined a YouTube channel and online media presence with a producer union, agency, aggregator, and label structure. Taylor's stated aim was to help producers earn money from music using production and career methods similar to those he used himself. This model placed collaboration and digital discovery at the center of the organization, allowing producers to share techniques, create beats, connect with vocal artists, and participate in commercial releases. The collective became associated with a large group of producers, including Taz Taylor, Nick Mira, Rio Leyva, Zia Mian, Thankyouwill, Mason Wu, Vendrbeats, Noah Mejia, Spaceman, Cxdy, E-Trou, KC Supreme, Pharaoh Vice, Census, Paryo, and Birdman Zoe. Its production work reached songs by artists including Lil Tecca, Juice Wrld, Trippie Redd, The Kid Laroi, Lil Tjay, and YoungBoy Never Broke Again. The sound connected with the collective is rooted in modern hip-hop and trap, with heavy use of 808 bass and digitally programmed instrumentation. Internet Money entered a record arrangement with Alamo and Interscope Records in 2018. The collective also appeared with 03 Greedo on Mozzy's "Free Greedo" in August 2018. By the middle of 2019, Taylor's relationship with Alamo and Interscope had deteriorated. A buyout was agreed by late summer, after which Taylor entered a new arrangement with TenThousand Projects and Virgin Music. The reference material characterizes the new joint venture as giving Taylor greater control over which artists could be signed through it. The organization began releasing music under its own collective identity with "Somebody," a 2019 collaboration with Lil Tecca and A Boogie wit da Hoodie. The song entered the US Billboard Hot 100 at number 96 and subsequently received RIAA platinum certification. In 2020, Internet Money appeared on Lil Tecca's "Out of Love" and released "Lemonade" with Gunna, Don Toliver, and Nav. "Lemonade" reached number six on the Billboard Hot 100 and received RIAA multi-platinum certification, making it the collective's most prominent charting release in the supplied material. On August 28, 2020, Internet Money released B4 the Storm, its debut studio album. The project reached number ten on the US Billboard 200 and later received RIAA gold certification. "Somebody" and "Lemonade" served as the principal singles, while "Thrusting," featuring Swae Lee and Future, was released as a promotional single. The album's subsequent editions and remixes extended the project's life: a Roddy Ricch version of "Lemonade" was released on September 30, 2020 and included on the complete edition issued October 23, while a Latin remix featuring Anuel AA followed on November 20. The collective continued to use collaborative singles as its main public release format. Late 2020 releases included "Hey!" with Lil Gnar and Lil Keed. In 2021, Internet Money released or appeared on "Jetski," "Whipski," "His & Hers," and "Drive You Home," involving a range of American and international artists. In 2022, "Flossin'" with YoungBoy Never Broke Again reached number 72 on the Hot 100. In 2023, Internet Money released "I Remember" with Roddy Ricch and Kodak Black. The available references do not provide confirmed details about a second studio album, current distribution arrangements, headquarters, or ownership structure.
