All you want to know about Sony Urban Music

Sony Urban Music was a former division of Sony Music Entertainment, active from 2004 to 2006, The division handled R&B, soul, and hip hop releases by artists nominally signed to Sony's Columbia and Epic labels. During its existence, Sony Urban managed releases by artists such as Bow Wow, Omarion, Bossman, DMX, Beyoncé, Amerie, and contemporary Christian music duo Anointed.

In November 2006, it was announced that Sony Urban Music would be dismantled. [1] All of the artists handled by Sony Urban were returned to either Columbia or Epic, with a handful of exceptions. R&B singer Omarion switched from Epic to Columbia, where he recorded a duets album with rapper Bow Wow. New signees Sa-Ra, signed to Columbia through Kanye West's G.O.O.D. Music imprint, negotiated their release during the restructuring.
