Ice-T is launching his own record label.

The former hip-hop star turned television sex crimes cop — per his role on Law & Order: SVU — has teamed up with bosses at to create his own digital imprint.

He says he’s already signed up a handful of aspiring rappers.

“I’m starting a digital label through EMI. I’m trying to get back to more hip-hop. To me, music right now is like disco. It’s very sing-songy, and nobody’s dealing with content. That’s what I miss. I miss Tupac and Big. You got Lupe Fiasco and T.I. now, but in general, we’re swamped with bubblegum pop,” the “Cop Killer” hitmaker said in an interview with The NY Daily News late Wednesday.

“We signed about five groups,” he added. “We’ve got an artist from L.A., a group called Certified from Washington state, Born Twice from Houston, and a Korean kid from New York. I’m playing the whole map.”
