Universal Music Group (US)


Universal Music Group is the world's #1 music company, formed from the 1998 merger of European giant Polygram with the US-based MCA/Universal portfolio. At the time it was the flagship entertainment arm of Canadian drinks company Seagram. That group was in turn acquired, and the business is now owned by France's Vivendi. Its labels include MCA, Motown, Polydor, Island and Def Jam. Current key artists include Amy Winehouse, U2, Rihanna and Kanye West. Click here to access the Adbrands profile (subscribers only); or subscribe to Adbrands.net here.
