Luke Records is the record label formed in 1985 by Luther Campbell, (former) frontman of 2 Live Crew.
The label was originally called Luke Skyywalker Records, however because it was not found to be of fair use, Campbell shortened his pseudonym to Luke (a result of George Lucas' successful lawsuit for Campbell appropriating the Skywalker name). From 1990 to 1995, the label was distributed by Atlantic Records.

“There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and who feasted sumptuously every day. And at his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, who longed to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man’s table; even the dogs would come and lick his sores. The poor man died and was carried away by the angels to be with Abraham.”
