Lex Records is an independent music label that was established in 2001 by Tom Brown. Originally a hip-hop focused imprint of Warp Records, Lex quickly expanded its scope and began releasing full albums from artists such as Boom Bip and Non-Prophets. Over time, Lex developed its own roster of long-term artists, including Danger Mouse, Boom Bip, Fog, and Subtle. In 2005, Lex became a fully independent label when it was sold by Warp to Tom Brown. Despite the split, Lex continues to receive support from Warp's distribution channels.

The label has gained recognition for its unique approach to music releases and its commitment to supporting emerging talent. With a diverse range of genres represented on their roster, Lex Records has become known for pushing boundaries and challenging traditional industry norms.

Through partnerships with distribution platforms like Warpmart and Bleep, Lex has been able to reach a wider audience and continue sharing groundbreaking music with the world. Their catalogue numbers have become iconic within the industry, with certain numbers remaining unused as documented in Rob Young's book 'Warp'.

Fly Anakin's debut studio album Frank draws influence from the classic R&amp;B and Soul his dad played him as a child, showcasing a gift for songwriting alongside the breathless raps he’s become known for. Recorded at the same time as ‘FlySiifu’s’, it features Pink Siifu on the DJ Harrison produced ‘Black Be The Source', as well as link ups with another Richmond hero and Anakin mentor Nickelus F, and fellow Mutant Academy members Big Kahuna OG and Henny L.O. Beats by Madlib, Evidence, Jay Versace, DJ Harrison, Ohbliv, Foisey, Graymatter and Like of Pac Div. Fly Anakin is a rapper from Richmond, Virginia, who was described by Madlib as "one of the illest MCs”, and has previously collaborated with Freddie Gibbs. He’s co-founder of the Richmond rap collective Mutant Academy.
