The Recording Industry Association of America® (RIAA) is the trade organization that supports and promotes the creative and financial vitality of the major music companies. Its members comprise the most vibrant record industry in the world, investing in great artists to help them reach their potential and connect to their fans. Nearly 85% of all legitimate recorded music produced and sold in the United States is created, manufactured or distributed by RIAA members.

In support of this mission, the RIAA works to protect the intellectual property and First Amendment rights of artists and music labels; conduct consumer, industry and technical research; and monitor and review state and federal laws, regulations and policies. RIAA also certifies Gold®, Platinum®, Multi-Platinum™, Diamond and Los Premios De Oro y Platino™ sales and streaming awards.

RIAA Members

The following is a list of RIAA members (U.S. record companies that pay dues directly to RIAA) as well as record companies that have content distributed (“distributed labels”) by major recorded music companies (“majors”) in the U.S. The names of distributed labels are reported to RIAA periodically in connection with the collection of industry data. This list was last updated in January 2017, and is updated annually.

Music services and other potential licensees should be aware that distributed labels who receive RIAA benefits because they are distributed by a major have not necessarily authorized the major to distribute or license all of that distributed label’s content, or in all formats. Whether or not a major is authorized to distribute or license for a distributed label is governed by the contractual terms between the major and the distributed label, and licensees should not rely on a label’s listing on this page as a substitute for specific inquiries concerning the scope of the major’s authorization from the distributed label.

For a list of membership benefits, please see Become A Member. If you are a distributed record label owner and don’t see your name on the list but would like to be added, or you would like to be removed from this list, please email RIAAMembership@riaa.com.”
