    Because Music is an independent record label with headquarters in Paris and London. The Because Music label was an instant hit thanks to the worldwide release of the album "Dimanche à Bamako" by Malian stars Amadou & Mariam. Other prestigious artists also joined the label from the beginning, in particular Keziah Jones, les Rita Mitsouko and Manu Chao. Because Music has allowed new artists to flourish, such as Charlotte Gainsbourg or Justice who have sold hundreds of thousands of albums throughout the world. Because Music has also carved a name for itself in urban music thanks to artists such as Sefyu, Keny Arkana, Médine and more recently Booba. The huge success of French artists has naturally attracted international signings such as The Klaxons, Moby, Prince, Badbadnotgood, Major Lazer.
