The imprint was started after Alan McGee announced on November 25, 1999 that he was leaving Creation Records, Oasis' original record company. The first release on Big Brother was the single "Go Let It Out" (catalogue number 'RKID 001') on February 7, 2000, the lead single from the band's fourth studio album, Standing on the Shoulder of Giants. On August 14, 2000, all of Oasis's singles from Definitely Maybe, (What's the Story) Morning Glory? and Be Here Now were re-issued on the Big Brother label and given new RKID catalogue numbers. In 2005, British band Happy Mondays released their first new material in over 13 years on the Big Brother label, with the single "Playground Superstar".
Big Brother were reported to be buying back the rights to Oasis' back catalogue from Sony BMG, who took complete control of Creation Records in 2000.. The new deal signed with Sony means this process is on hold for the foreseeable future.
