550 Music (originally known as Sony 550 Music) was a unit of Sony Music Entertainment, which operated through Sony Music's Epic Records division while in activity. Launched in 1992, the "550" name was inspired by the address of the Sony building, located at 550 Madison Avenue in New York. The label was absorbed in 2000 by Epic Records, it was part of the restructuring when Tommy Mottola was leaving Sony Music.
