Black Owned Labels
(OK this is a shameless plug this is my sketch of Berry Gordy) Motown Records and Philadelphia International were two black owned labels and they were HUGE. They were dominating the charts and we may never see another monster black owned label again. Many think Stax was black owned but it was not, it was founded by a white brother and sister Jim Stewart and Estelle Axton who combined their last names to come up with Stax.
