- Interscope was founded in 1989 by Jimmy Iovine and Ted Field as a $20 million joint venture with Time Warner's Atlantic Records. At the time, it differed from most record companies by giving decision-making authority to its A&R staff, and allowing artists and producers complete creative control. It had its first hit records less than a year after it was founded and achieved profitability in 1993. In 1992, Interscope acquired the exclusive rights to market and distribute the hardcore rap label Death Row. Albums by Death Row artists including Tupac Shakur, Dr. Dre, and Snoop Dogg were at the center of the mid-'90s gangsta rap controversy, and as a result, Time Warner severed ties with Interscope by selling its 50 percent stake back to Field and Iovine for $115 million in 1995. In 1996, 50% of the label was acquired by the MCA Music Entertainment Group for a reported $200 million. Iovine served as chairman and CEO until May 2014. He was succeeded by John Janick. Interscope is headquartered in Santa Monica, California.
- Interscope was formed in 1990 by Jimmy Iovine, Ted Field, and Tom Whalley with financial support from Atlantic Records (which owned a 50% stock in the label). Upon its creation, it was initially distributed by Atlantic Records' subsidiary East West Records America. The label's first release was Latin-rapper Gerardo, who scored a top 5, gold hit with "Rico Suave" in the spring of 1991. More early success came later in the year when the label released the debut album from Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, which went platinum in early 1992. During this time, Interscope also signed rapper Tupac Shakur, Primus, No Doubt and Nine Inch Nails. They also released Bad4Good's album, Refugee in 1992, yet it was a commercial flop.

The label's current artists include Eminem, Fergie, Phillip Phillips, Dr. Dre, Maroon 5, Kendrick Lamar,Madonna, Lana Del Rey, Schoolboy Q, OneRepublic, No Doubt, Imagine Dragons, Zedd and Lady Gaga, among others. Interscope became the number-one charting label based on Mediabase, and also with the largest label share on over four radio formats, with Adult Contemporary being their largest share of the formats. After releasing their first four studio albums on A&M/Octone Records, Maroon 5 signed with Interscope in 2014 and released their fifth studio album, V, on the label later that year.
