 ===Background===
-Though the history of '''Universal Music''' dates as far back as the 1930s, the current group (UMG) was created with the acquisition of PolyGram by Universal in 1999. The name appeared two years before, when MCA Music Entertainment Group was renamed. From its inception until 2000, UMG was part of [[Universal Studios]]. Since January 8, 2001, UMG is a separate entity and is a subsidiary of Vivendi SA, which also bought the BMG Music Publishing brand in 2007, and later some of the recorded music operations of EMI in 2012. In 2021, UMG officially split from Vivendi as the company went public.
