Aftermath Entertainment

There is also another similarly titled record label, Aftermath Music, which is based in Norway.

Aftermath Entertainment is a record label, specializing in hip hop music , founded by Dr. Dre in 1996. Dre was originally co-owner of Death Row Records with current Death Row CEO Suge Knight, but left that label in early 1996.

With artists such as Eminem, 50 Cent, Eve, Busta Rhymes, The Game, Stat Quo, and Dre himself signed to the label, Aftermath has become one of the most successful hip-hop labels of the present era.

Aftermath distributes its material in association with Interscope Records, and has two specialty imprints run by its two most successful artists: Eminem's Shady Records has Eminem, 50 Cent, and Stat Quo signed to its roster.

50 Cent's G-Unit also signed The Game. Recently 50 Cent declared that he is no longer a part of the label, which sparked a rift between Shady/Aftermath and G-Unit. After a well-publized beef between them, 50 Cent and The Game officially squashed the beef and The Game was reinstated back to G-Unit. Therefore, The Game was re-signed to Aftermath/G-Unit Records.
