G.O.O.D. Music
GOOD Music (often stylized as G.O.O.D. Music; a backronym for Getting Out Our Dreams) is an American independent record label founded by rapper Kanye West in 2004. The label entered an exclusive long-term worldwide distribution contract with the Island Def Jam Music Group in 2011. In 2012, the label released its only compilation album, Cruel Summer. In 2015, Pusha T was appointed president of the label by West, while record executive Steven Victor was appointed chief operating officer (COO). In late 2022, Pusha T stepped down from the position as he was no longer on speaking terms with West.
The label has released two number-one US Billboard Hot 100 singles—"All of Me" by John Legend, and "Panda" by Desiigner—as well as nine number-one US Billboard 200 albums—Finding Forever (2007) by Common; Dark Sky Paradise (2015), I Decided (2017), and Detroit 2 (2020) by Big Sean; The Life of Pablo (2016), Ye (2018), Jesus Is King (2019), and Donda (2021) by Kanye West; and It's Almost Dry (2022)…
