Robbins Entertainment, which is distributed by Sony Music, was launched in 1996 byveteran record executive Cory Robbins.

Prior to launching Robbins Entertainment, Cory Robbins was president andco-owner of Profile Records, a seminal label in the rap, reggae and pop musicscenes known for such hit acts as the multi platinum-selling Run-D.M.C., as well asDJ Quik, Rob Base, and Judy Torres. Robbins founded the label in 1981 and soldit in 1994.
The Nashville office is headed by VP of A&R Phyllis Stark, a Music Row veteran and longtime journalist, who has been reporting extensively on the record and radio industries for two decades.
