Day by Day Entertainment is an independent hip hop record label and record distribution company based in New York City. It was started in 1999 by MF Grimm before his three-year incarceration which started in 2000.[1]

After a brief hiatus, Day by Day Entertainment was relaunched on August 24, 2009.[2] After several years of relative inactivity, the label released new material by MF Grimm and Ayatollah.

Part of the significance of the label's being a taste-maker of underground hip-hop music is its release of The Downfall of Ibliys: A Ghetto Opera of tracks recorded within 24 hours of going to prison, and American Hunger, which is MF Grimm's three-disc volume of new material recorded in 2006. The releases were well received by Pitchfork.[3]
