Backstreet Boys leave record company


Backstreet Boys have left their longtime label, Sony owned Jive Records.

While there has not been an announcement about their future plans, Backstreet Boys member Brian Littrell says it is the 'best thing' that has happened to the group.

So the news is out! The Backstreet Boys are no longer signed to long time record label Jive Records. The amicable split is very exciting for the group. "This is the best thing, at the best time that could have ever happened for us', Brian said at the Backstreet Boys website. 'We are confident in the future of our band, and are looking forward to the new things to come. 2011 is going to be a great year for us!'

Backstreet Boys had been with Jive Records since their debut album in 1996.

Their self-titled album has sold over 14 million copies in the USA alone while the 'Millennium’ album sold more than 13 million in America.

Backstreet Boys released seven studio albums on Jive and sold more than 130 records.
