This label is behind legends like Ray Charles, Led Zeppelin, and Aretha Franklin. They’ve also worked with top artists from recent decades, including Sia, Bruno Mars, Wiz Khalifa, Ed Sheeran, Coldplay, and Skrillex. Today’s hottest stars on the label include Cardi B, Charlie Puth, Lil Uzi Vert, Lizzo, and Ava Max, among others.
Additionally, this means that 3 out of 4 BLACKPINK members, except for Jisoo, have signed with US music labels. Particularly, it was previously announced that Lisa and Jennie signed with RCA Records and Columbia records, respectively.
