Interscope Geffen A&M Records shines like a supernova in the musical universe. The division of recording industry titan Universal Music Group (UMG) oversees a diverse collection of record labels, including three of UMG's flagship imprints: Interscope, Geffen Records, and A&M Records. Together, the three brands focus on rap, R&B, rock, and commercial pop. Interscope Geffen A&M Records' roster of artists includes 50 Cent, blink-182, Eminem, Feist, Sting, and Guns & Roses. The division was established in 1999 following Universal Studio's $10.2 billion acquisition of PolyGram. The reorganization combined the once-separate operations of Interscope and Geffen Records with the acquired A&M Records.
