started off 2020 full of optimism. Streaming had fueled several consecutive years of growth, touring was booming and the label had a huge presence at the Grammy Awards, when breakout star Billie Eilish and her brother, producer Finneas, collectively won 10 awards, including a rare sweep of the top four categories: album, record and song of the year and best new artist.
As an entrepreneur who started the punk-leaning Fueled by Ramen label at age 17, Janick and his senior management are also quick to share credit with Interscope’s label partners. Janick notes such joint ventures have been an integral part of Interscope since his predecessor, co-founder Jimmy Iovine, set up shop in 1990.
“When John first came into the company, he built an immediate bond with Jimmy and he soaked in the culture and the history of Interscope,” says Berman. “I feel like I’m the luckiest person in the room, because I took the incredible ride with Jimmy of building Interscope, and I get to be with John for the next generation.”
Adds Janick: “I want to find the best music in any genre. The market is very hip-hop focused; it’s in Interscope’s DNA, and we have some of the best music in the genre, but I think we have some of the best music in pop and in and alternative too.”
