AWAL is a global recording business that serves as an alternative to the traditional record label, offering deal structures that provide artists the resources and expertise of a global label while allowing them to retain ownership and control of their music.[4] In 2021, Sony Music Entertainment purchased AWAL from Kobalt Music Group for $430 million.[5][6]
