Eminem is currently signed to Aftermath Entertainment and Shady Records (his own record label), both of which operate under the umbrella of Interscope Records, a division of Universal Music Group.

The rapper's journey with record labels began in 1999 when he signed with Dr. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment after releasing his independent debut album "Infinite." This partnership proved to be a pivotal moment in his career, leading to the release of "The Slim Shady LP" and subsequent mainstream success.

In 2000, Eminem established Shady Records in partnership with his manager Paul Rosenberg, while maintaining his relationship with Aftermath Entertainment. This unique arrangement allows him to release his own music through both labels simultaneously.

Here's a clear breakdown of Eminem's label affiliations:

- Primary Labels: Aftermath Entertainment & Shady Records
- Parent Company: Interscope Records
- Distribution: Universal Music Group

Throughout his career, Eminem has remained loyal to these label partnerships, which have been instrumental in releasing all his major albums from "The Marshall Mathers LP" (2000) to "Music to Be Murdered By" (2020).

While he operates as both an artist and a label executive through Shady Records, his own music continues to be released through the joint venture between Aftermath Entertainment and Shady Records, with Interscope handling distribution.

This arrangement has proven highly successful, helping Eminem become the best-selling hip-hop artist of all time while maintaining creative control over his music and developing other artists through his own label.
