Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music It’s approaching the end of a tough month at Atlantic Music Group, as Julie Greenwald, who has been at the top of the company for more than 20 years, prepares to leave the company that she played an essential role in making one of the most successful and consistent labels in music industry history. Since she joined the company in 2004 from Def Jam Records and Rush Management with longtime boss Lyor Cohen, she and longtime co-chair Craig Kallman have played an invaluable role in the success and often the rise of artists including but hardly limited to Cardi B, Brandi Carlile, Kelly Clarkson, Coldplay, Jack Harlow, Lil Uzi Vert, Lizzo, Charli XCX, Kehlani, Bruno Mars, Janelle Monáe, Panic! at the Disco, Charlie Puth, Ed Sheeran, Tiësto, Rob Thomas, Twenty One Pilots, and Wiz Khalifa, as well as award-winning projects like “Barbie the Album” and the Original Broadway Cast Recordings of “Hamilton” and “Dear Evan Hansen.” Under Atlantic, the company’s subsidiary labels, including 300, ATCO, Big Beat, DTA, Elektra, Fueled By Ramen, Low Country Sound, Public Consumption, and Roadrunner, have thrived.
