Overview
Overview
During CEO Robert Kraft's tenure at Fox, dozens of Fox scores and soundtracks have become platinum or gold records. Highlights include the soundtracks from 20th Century Fox and Fox Searchlight Pictures films such as Titanic, Waiting to Exhale, 28 Weeks Later, Moulin Rouge!, Garden State, Romeo + Juliet, The Full Monty, Hope Floats, Dr. Dolittle, Bulworth, Anastasia, Walk the Line, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Once, Juno and Ferdinand. Music has also supervised the music for 20th Century Fox Television hits, starting in 1994. Such television soundtracks from Fox Music have included the worldwide platinum albums from Ally McBeal and The X-Files, plus hit compilations from The Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama, American Dad!, King of the Hill, Bob's Burgers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Dark Angel, Roswell, Glee, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, 24, and Sons of Anarchy. Since Kraft became chief executive in 1994, Fox Music has been responsible for the worldwide sales of over 60 million albums, producing 3 Platinum, 6 Multi-Platinum and 6 Gold records. Music has garnered 10 Academy Award nominations, winning 4 Academy Awards, 14 Golden Globe nominations (including 4 Golden Globe Awards), 58 Emmy nominations with 11 wins, and 46 Grammy nominations including 12 Grammy Awards. Music used to utilize unaffiliated record companies for distribution. For example, Glee Cast albums were released by Columbia Records. Such recordings were released under the 20th Century Fox TV Records imprint which was introduced in 2009 as a joint venture of 20th Century Fox and Sony Music. Following the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney in 2019, Fox Music became part of the Disney Music Group and was distributed by Universal Music Group. In 2020, due to Disney dropping the "Fox" brand, Fox Music was folded into Disney Music Group. Now, all of the renamed 20th Century Studios are released under DMG's Hollywood Records label, and Fox Music is only used as a legal name for 20th Century Studios' soundtrack labels before Disney's acquisition.
