THE JOURNEY OF REGGAE MUSIC
- Leonard McKenzie photo
Pat Chin, CEO of VP
Records Distributors, was one of the pioneers to help brand Reggae Music to the
international world. In celebrating Black History (USA), and Reggae (Jamaica)
months, Ms. Chin last Friday (January 31), unveiled her own forty-plus historically
years of Reggae music compilation at the Jamaican Consulate, Manhattan.
Titled, “A Reggae
Music Journey”, Ms. Chin uncovered her historical exhibition from her17 North
Parade Record store in Jamaica, her homeland, to her retail music store in
Jamaica, NY.
With a large
number of Jamaicans, Caribbean nationals, and music lovers in attendance the
experience to explore was amazing. A large audience was on hand to witness the
pop-up displays, chronicling the evolution in Reggae music from struggle to success.
Today, VP Records, now
one of the top independent record labels helps promote reggae to an
international market.
