JYP Entertainment strengthens its partnership with American record label Republic Records
On February 10, Universal Music’s Republic Records, which has been voted the No. 1 music label in the United States for years, announced via local media: “We will strengthen our strategic partnership with JYP Entertainment, a company that spreads the power of KPOP around the world. Both Stray Kids and ITZY will join forces and strive to achieve success in the United States and global markets.
Republic Records is one of the largest American record labels under Universal Music Group. Under the new partnership, Republic Records will support the US operations of the South Korean agency’s other K-pop groups, including Stray Kids and Itzy.
Since Twice’s emergence on the American music scene, the nine-member band has managed to release two of their records, “Formula Of Love: T+O=”
The group released their first English-language single “The Feels” last year, which debuted at No. 83 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Republic Records is home to many famous artists, such as Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift, Drake, the Jonas Brothers, and Post Malone. He has also taken under his wing a selection of K-pop artists, including Twice and Tomorrow X Together (TXT).
