Hyped International Records is an award-winning record company founded in 1991 and reorganized in 2010. Many labels come and go just like one-hit wonders, but we've been fortunate enough to continue doing what we love while remaining committed to our artist-first principles. As a family-owned and musician-led operation with over 30 years in business; we've successfully cut, commissioned, and collaborated on hundreds of high-profile music projects, including one or two of the best-selling records of all time. As Detroit's premiere independent, we specialize in producing original music for emerging, trending and legacy recording artists and bands around the world.
