Ark Music Factory is a company based in Hollywood which seeks to find young singers for promotion. Ark then writes music with (or for) these acts and records them, often producing music videos for them. According to the company's myspace page, they categorize themselves as an indie record label. They state that their main objectives are to bring aspiring acts to the musical fore: "We at ARK make it possible for an emerging artist to be discovered, defined and delivered, to advance in their chosen career and be successful." Ark is predominantly based in the US, although they claim that artists they have supported have had success in different regions across the globe.

Ark's website claims to be creating a community where artists from all fields can come together to build connections and interact. Their website also claims that their dedicated team has industry professionals who have worked with Miley Cyrus, the Backstreet Boys, and Ashley Tisdale.

Ark has recently gained notoriety after one of their performers, Rebecca Black, became a viral sensation. Unfortunately, her song has been heralded by some as potentially "the worst song ever". According to the British newspaper The Independent, Black trended high on Twitter, coming in at the 5th most rehashtagged topic on the 14th of March at 7.30pm GMT.
