Ba Da Bing Records is an American record label based in Brooklyn, New York. The name is derived from the saying "ba da bing, ba da boom", common among Italian-Americans, especially in New Jersey.

The label was founded in Leonia, New Jersey, in 1994 by Ben Goldberg.[http://fort-greene.thelocal.nytimes.com/2010/10/12/a-record-label-grows-in-fort-greene/#more-46659 A Record Label Grows in Fort Greene] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131205170313/http://fort-greene.thelocal.nytimes.com/2010/10/12/a-record-label-grows-in-fort-greene/#more-46659 |date=2013-12-05 }}.
