BMG Rights Management, formerly known as Bertelsmann Music Group, is a global music conglomerate with a rich history in the industry. Originally formed in 1985 as a joint venture between Bertelsmann AG and RCA, BMG has since evolved into a powerhouse of music production and distribution.

In 1986, Bertelsmann acquired full ownership of RCA and Arista Records through the purchase of their joint venture's stock from General Electric. The following year, these labels were merged under the umbrella of Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG), solidifying its position as a major player in the music world.

In 2004, BMG joined forces with Sony Music to create Sony BMG Music Entertainment. However, in 2008, Bertelsmann sold its stake in the company, leading to the formation of BMG Rights Management. Today, BMG continues to thrive as a leading record label and distributor worldwide.

Born and raised in Nashville’s Antioch neighborhood, the former addict and drug dealer released Ballads of the Broken on the same day as his sold-out hometown show at the famous Ryman Auditorium. The introspective 10-track album shows Jelly Roll’s growth as an artist and man, drawing from his personal experiences to tell the story of a man who has been through the ringer and isn’t afraid to share his raw truth. The introspective 10-track album delves deeper into his current season of life and his growth - personally and sonically, marking the first time he does not rap except for a lone verse across the album. Having written each song on the album, Jelly Roll finds “a more centered emotional space,” and “takes those raw, unreserved verses and melds elements of country, rock, and hip-hop into his own signature style”.
