A number of media outlets and magazines (Rolling Stone, NME, Clash and others) have reported on the story. The Guardian has reported on the record label’s name change and mentioned the donation to the Armenian Institute:

“The record label Young Turks, home to the xx, FKA twigs, Sampha and more, has changed its name to Young to avoid connotations with genocide.

…

Caius Pawson, who founded the Young Turks record label in 2005 after running a club night of the same name, said he had originally named it after the Rod Stewart song, and said it evoked “the solidarity of youth … it seemed to perfectly sum up what we were: teenagers, wanting and waiting to do something, anything. However, we were unaware of the deeper history of the term.”

He added: “Through ongoing conversations and messages that have developed our own knowledge around the subject, it’s become apparent that the name is a source of hurt and confusion for people. We loved the name for what it meant to us, but in retrospect should have listened more carefully to other voices and acted more quickly.”

Its logo, formerly an image of skull wearing a fez, has been changed to a simple Y design.

Pawson announced that Young had made a donation to UK cultural organisation the Armenian Institute, “in memory of those who were killed and those who survived” the genocide”
