LG Records is a Scottish independent record label and the lead label for musicians who utilize the online game platform and game creation system Roblox,[1] a genre self proclaimed by the artists as "r-pop."[2] Though unaffiliated with Roblox Corporation, the label was founded in August 2021 by CEO LennonG specifically for Roblox music.[1] The r-pop genre had a massive surge in popularity thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, with popular artists including Lil Nas X and Charli XCX hosting their own concerts in the game.[3]
On 1 April 2022, LG aquired the fellow r-pop label RH Studio and Belasconsal was appointed COO.[4] On 11 June 2022, the label rebranded and downsized, letting many artists go.[1]

Events[edit]
LG Records has hosted several events in Roblox, even creating exact replicas of O2 Academy Birmingham, O2 Academy Bristol & Brixton Academy as digital concert venues.[5]
Roblox Glastonbury Festival[edit]
On 22 July 2022, LG hosted a Roblox version of the Glastonbury Festival of contemporary performing arts, featuring an exact replica of Worthy Farm.[6] However, the event was much more popular than expected, causing major internet lag and attracting hackers.[7] It was then rescheduled as a two-day event on the 29th and 30 July with smaller server sizes and exploitation filters in place to prevent hacking.
