Southern US based label founded by production duo Antonio "L.A." Reid and Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds.
An imprint of Arista Records, LaFace scored hits throughout the 90s with a diverse stable of artists including Usher, Toni Braxton, , OutKast, Donell Jones and TLC.

By the end of the decade, Babyface was less involved with the label while still pursuing his own musical career. Antonio "L.A." Reid took over from Arista co-founder and president Clive Davis as the succeeding head of the label in 2000, and most of the LaFace artists (including the recently signed rapper T.I.) went with him (though some went to Davis' newly launched J Records). This seemingly marked the end of LaFace, but in 2004, following the merger of its parent company Sony BMG, the label was revitalized as one quarter of the newly rearranged Zomba Label Group alongside So So Def, and Jive. Under the LaFace reboot, Usher, Donell Jones and P!NK rejoined while the label had recently signed Ciara.

LaFace Records' most prominent release to date was the 1994 TLC album, CrazySexyCool, which was the highest selling album by any all-female group with over 12 million copies sold in the United States alone.

On September 26, 2011, the RCA Music Group was disbanded by Sony, and on October 7, LaFace, alongside its parent, Arista, and sister labels, Jive and J Records, were all absorbed into RCA Records, bringing all of its artists to the RCA family.
