Cory Robbins (born September 23, 1957) is an American record business entrepreneur. Robbins founded two influential record labels. The first, Profile Records (in business from 1981 to 1996; Robbins left in 1994), grew to become a large independent label that proved key in the rise of hip-hop as a commercially viable genre, most notably in breaking hip-hop's first multiplatinum act, Run-D.M.C. The second, Robbins Entertainment (founded in 1996), has been a pioneer charting dance music's course into the 21st century. Robbins is currently the owner and president of Robbins Entertainment, which is based in New York City's Tribeca neighborhood. __FORCETOC__ == Early life == Robbins was born to Warren and Paula Robbins in Brooklyn, NY. His family spent the first part of his life in Hollis, Queens — the same neighborhood where the members of his future artists Run-D.M.C. grew up. Robbins father was a "closeout specialist" of wholesale clothing and ran a small chain of clothing stores in suburban New York and New Jersey called the Sample Nook. The Robbins family relocated to Rockland County, north of the city, in 1964. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cory Robbins」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
