Raymond Braun Media Group, abbreviated as RBMG and currently under the brand name Scooter Braun, is an American record label founded by R&B singer Usher (whose surname is Raymond) and talent manager Scooter Braun in 2008 as a joint venture. The label was initially created for both parties to mutually manage the career and recording catalogue of then-rising teen pop singer Justin Bieber. As of 2025, Bieber remains the only artist to ever sign with the label.

RBMG also has a special profit-sharing business deal with Def Jam Recordings, owned by Universal Music Group.

History

Raymond and Braun founded RBMG Music in 2008, in conjunction with Island Def Jam, to debut teen singer Justin Bieber. Bieber's debut extended play, My World, was the label's first release. It peaked atop the Billboard 200, and received platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America by March 2010; it has since received triple platinum certification. The label's second release and Bieber's debut album, My World 2.0, also peaked the Billboard 200, received quadruple platinum certification in the U.S., and was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards.

As of 2025, the label has continued to release each of Bieber's studio and remix albums, all of which (excluding My Worlds Acoustic) have debuted atop the Billboard 200.
