Record Company Research

The record label that I chose to produce my video is Polydor Records. It is a record label that is owned by Universal Music Group and is headquartered in the UK.
It was founded in 1924 as an independent branch of the Deutsche Grammphon Gesellschaft and didn’t become big in the U.S until 1971, when it was graced with the presence of R’n’B legend James Brown, despite opening a division in 1969.

Polydor Records supports its artists greatly and helps to make them chart topping successes. Also being from the UK, I felt that Polydor having an American branch as its defunct, would help boost Hayleigh’s profile.
