Sylvia Rhone Officially Steps Down as Epic Records CEO, Closes Out Decades-Long Legacy in Music Industry⁠
⁠
Blogged by: Cabbagepatchgrl⁠
⁠
#SylviaRhone, one of the most respected leaders in the music industry, is leaving her role as chair and CEO of #EpicRecords.⁠
⁠
Her departure takes effect at the end of this month, marking the close of a historic run at the label and another milestone in her five-decade career.⁠
⁠
Rhone’s leadership at Epic has been marked by numerous standout moments. In 2024, the label made history when Future earned three No. 1 albums within six months, tying a record only The Beatles had previously achieved. Epic also placed three artists in the Top 10 of the US albums chart on two different occasions during her tenure.⁠
⁠
She helped deliver major projects from #TravisScott, #Tyla, and #21Savage while continuing to support an eclectic roster that includes #OzzyOsbourne, #Andre3000, #ZaraLarson, and #MeghanTrainor.⁠
⁠
In a note to her colleagues, Rhone reflected on what her time at Epic meant to her.⁠
⁠
“It’s been an extraordinary journey: 11 years since my promotion to president of Epic Records and six years since my appointment as chairwoman and CEO. This role at Epic represents the third time in my career that I’ve been the first woman and first Black person to serve as CEO of a major record label owned by a Fortune 500 company. And today, I am moving on from this historic role at Epic, and I’m very excited about the future.”...to read the rest log on to balleralert.com (clickable link on profile)
