Quality Control Music[1] (also known as Quality Control, QC the Label or simply QC) is an Atlanta-based record label founded by Pierre "Pee" Thomas and Kevin "Coach K" Lee in 2012.[2] Its productions were distributed through Universal Music Distribution until it was dismantled in 2015[3]; the label's releases are now distributed through Motown and Caroline, subsidiaries of the Capitol Music Group.
