Answer 1

originally it meant just the , the label on the record, listing the song title, artist, and company that owned the copyrights to the music. over time it has come to be used as a generic term for the company that the artist is contracted to, or owns copyrights to the music.

Answer 2

In the music industry, a record label is a brand and a trademark associated with the marketing of sound recordings and music videos. A record label is also a company that manages such brands and trademarks; coordinates the production, manufacture, distribution, promotion, and enforcement of copyright protection of sound recordings and music videos; conducts A&R; and maintains contracts with recording artists and their managers. The term derives from and describes the round paper labels affixed to the center of gramophone records; such labels typically contain a trademarked logo and information about the sound recording and the companies involved in creating the product.

Answer 3

By today's standards a record label is a type of business that produces recorded music of singers and/or musicians which might be similar to a "clothing label" that produces a particular type of designer fashions. The label itself is what was originally on records to identify them from one and other and the major recording studios were always identified by their trademarked label design. So when a particular song was introduced, it was referred to as being on the "motown" label or on the "Capitol" label.
