Storm Labels, Inc. (株式会社ストームレーベルズ, Kabushikigaisha Sutōm Rēberuzu), previously known as J Storm, Inc. (株式会社ジェイ・ストーム, Kabushikigaisha Jei Sutōm) is a Japanese music and film company. It was established on November 12, 2001, initially as a label for the Johnny & Associates' group, Arashi, after which it was named. Aside from producing and releasing CDs and DVDs, the company also produces films for Starto Entertainment's various talents. Storm also has the same strict policies for portrait rights of its talents with its parent company. Among others, images of their talents are prohibited to appear in websites, though on 28 February 2011, the ban was lifted and loosened the regulations (it is still prohibited in news sites). The ban was lifted completely on 31 January 2018. The company's releases are currently being distributed by Avex Asia in Hong Kong and Taiwan, Sony Music in Japan, SM Entertainment in South Korea, GMM Grammy in Thailand, and recently, Universal Records in the Philippines, and Sony Music subsidiary The Orchard in the United States. In the wake of the Johnny Kitagawa sexual abuse scandal, it was announced in October 2023 that J Storm would be renamed to Storm Labels effective January 1, 2024.
