To celebrate its 30th anniversary, Interscope Records -- an iconic record label owned by Universal Music Group -- launched a new art exhibit called 'Artists Inspired by Music: Interscope Reimagined.' Kicking off last week, the exhibit featured original works of visual art that drew inspiration from the label's most beloved artists and albums.
Now, Interscope has announced that several of the artworks featured at the show will be turned into limited-edition vinyl record covers. In total, 57 legendary Interscope albums will go on sale with new, original artworks on the live stream shopping app NTWRK. The archival records are set to be released in daily group drops and will feature albums from artists such as Dr. Dr, Kendrick Lamar, Lady Gaga, 2Pac, Lana Del Ray, U2, Eminem, and Billie Elish.
