KidinaKorner (styled KIDinaKORNER) is an American record label founded in 2011, by British music producer and songwriter Alex da Kid. In 2010, Alexander "Alex da Kid" Grant founded Wonderland Entertainment, a publishing and production company. On August 10, 2010, it was revealed he had signed American singer-songwriter Skylar Grey, to a publishing deal.[1][2][3] On June 1, 2011, Interscope Geffen A&M Records, a subsidiary of Universal Music Group, announced Grant signed a joint venture deal to launch his label imprint, KidinaKorner.[4][5] The announcement came after Grant produced three of 2010's biggest singles, namely "Airplanes", "Love the Way You Lie and "Coming Home", as well as 2011's "I Need a Doctor". On June 14, 2011, KIDinaKORNER released Skylar Grey's debut single, titled "Dance Without You," via digital distribution.[6] In November 2011, Grant signed American rock band Imagine Dragons and in 2012, released their debut album, Night Visions.[7][8]
