On June 26, VP Records will release the 20th installment of their classic Reggae Gold compilation. First launched in 1992, the Reggae Gold compilation is a round-up of the year’s best in reggae, roots and dancehall music which has consistently topped charts and acted as a valuable time capsule of each year’s reggae hits, styles and trends.
The 2012 edition will feature a commemorative sticker and a 15” x 10” fold out poster of this year’s Reggae Gold Cover Girls. This year’s compilation will feature two discs. The first will be the usual round-up of reggae and dancehall hits, including new tracks from Sean Paul, Busy Signal, Damian Marley, Etana, Gyptian and more, while the second disc will feature a commemorative collection of classic hits from the likes of Lady Saw, Buju Banton, Sizzla and many more great names from the series’ history.
