VP Records is a US-based record company, label, and distributor founded by Vincent "Randy" Chin and his wife Patricia Chin. It is globally recognized as the largest independent reggae label. The Chins moved from Jamaica in 1977 and established their store in the vibrant neighborhood of Queens, New York. With over 25,000 titles under its belt, VP Records acquired Greensleeves Records and was named the Billboard reggae label of the year in 1999. They have also collaborated with major labels like Atlantic Records for licensing deals. VP Music Group, Inc., handles all copyright matters while VP Mastering takes care of the mastering studio operations.

The success of VP Records can be attributed to its strong foundation built by Vincent and Patricia Chin. Their passion for reggae music led them to establish a store that would later evolve into one of the most influential labels in the industry. Today, VP Records continues to promote and distribute exceptional reggae music worldwide.
