Hypnotize Minds is a record label (originally named Prophet Entertainment) started by the Memphis rap group Triple 6 Mafia.

This record label consists of an extended collective of rappers around in-house producers Juicy J and DJ Paul. Its central group is Triple 6 Mafia, which features DJ Paul and Juicy J. Former Triple 6 Mafia members include Gangsta Boo, Koopsta Knicca, Lord Infamous, and Crunchy Black. The rap collective includes Project Pat, Lil Wyte, Frayser Boy, and Chrome.

Because the group has been heavily involved in Triple 6 Mafia productions, it has started careers for many rappers. The family has had several falling-outs with other rappers from the Memphis area, mostly over financial reasons. They have released albums under the names Prophet Posse, Hypnotize Camp Posse, Tear da Club Up Thugs, and Da Headbussaz, and are heavily featured on Three 6 Mafia projects.
