Interscope Repeats as 2008 Champ
IDJMG Edges Zomba For Second As Top 5 Remain The Same
Interscope/Geffen/A&M repeat as the Mediabase overall airplay champion for the second year
in-a-row. In 2008, they were led by the likes of Timbaland, Puddle Of Mudd, Weezer, Lifehouse,
Maroon 5, and Fergie. Interscope/Geffen/A&M was the No. 1 label at Hot AC, Alternative, and Urban
AC. The label also scored big across the board, placing 2nd at Top 40 and AC, 3rd at Rhythmic, and
5th at Urban and Active Rock. Interscope posted a 12.6% chart share last year and climbed to a
13.6% this year.
The top 5 labels remain the same as 2007, although in a slightly different order of finish, and all
grabbed over a 10% chart share. Island Def Jam moved from 4th to 2nd this year (at 11.1%), with
three specific formats really driving their success. They grabbed the #1 spot at Rhythmic, Urban, and
were 4th at Top 40. Key artists for IDJMG include Rihanna, Ne-Yo, Kanye West, and Ludacris.
Zomba had a tremendous 2008, coming in a very close 3rd this year (also at 11.1%). Zomba scores a
big win this year at Top 40, reigning supreme with a 15.4% chart share. They also placed 2nd at Urban
AC, 3rd at Urban, and 4th at Rhythmic, AC, and Hot AC. Major acts on Zomba include Usher, Britney
Spears, Chris Brown, Jordin Sparks, Three Days Grace, and Pink.
Atlantic lands the 4th spot this year with a 10.7% share. For 2008, Atlantic and Roadrunner were
separated. The Mediabase chart share is specifically tied to promotion staff. It should be noted that
many of the titles signed to Roadrunner may have been promoted at one time by Atlantic. 2008 was
once again a great year for Atlantic, riding success from T.I., Shinedown, Staind, Flo Rida (who
scored the #1 song at Top 40 this year), and Plies. Atlantic ranked 2nd at Rhythmic and Urban, 3rd at
Top 40 and Triple A, 4th at Urban AC, and 5th at Rock.
For 2008, Mediabase is also introducing a second label performance chart - which reflects Label
Group as well. Overall Label Share is reflective of radio promotion staffs. Label Group incorporates
multiple promotion staffs that are under one corporate umbrella. Atlantic Records Group - which
encompasses Atlantic, Roadrunner, and Special Ops - comes in as the No. 1 label group.

Finishing 5th for a second straight year is the RCA Music Group. RMG was 1st at AC, 2nd at Hot
AC, 3rd at Alternative and Urban AC, and 5th at Top 40. RMG had a plethora of hit artists this year
including Daughtry, Foo Fighters, Alicia Keys, and newcomers Jazmine Sullivan, Leona Lewis, and
“American Idol” champion David Cook. The label also finished up with a huge hit by Kings Of Leon
at Alternative. RMG soared from a 8.9% in 2007 to a 10.1% share in 2008.
Slotting in the sixth slot is Epic, climbing from a 5.2% chart share (8th) in 2007 to a 5.5% in 2008.
Epic started out the year strong with acts like Sean Kingston and Sara Bareilles, and also saw hits
from Ray J and Natasha Bedingfield cross multiple formats.
Just a tenth of a point behind Epic is Universal Republic in 7th place, up from 10th a year ago
(moving up from 3.4% to 5.4%), which marked a 59% improvement. This is the largest growth
year-to-year of any label. Major acts for Universal Republic in 2008 include Hinder, 3 Doors Down,
Colbie Caillat, and a deal with Big Machine that brought them multi-format superstar Taylor Swift.
In 8th place is Capitol with a 4.8% share. 2008 marked the first year Capitol and Virgin were merged
and their chart share remained very steady. Capitol had artists that crossed format boundaries like
Coldplay, and developed new acts like Katy Perry and Saving Abel.
Universal Motown finished 9th, posting a strong second half showing in 2008. The label soared all
the way to No. 5 by year’s end at Rhythmic and No. 4 at Urban. Driving Universal Motown were multiple
hits by Lil Wayne – arguably one of the biggest runs we’ve ever seen by any artist. Also in the mix
were Akon and David Banner.
Rounding out the top 10 is Columbia. Columbia finished the last two months in a very good position
and is poised for a strong start to 2009. Beyonce, AC/DC and the Offspring were key acts, while
Adele came through toward the end of 2008.
