Reggae artist Ziggi snapped up by major label

Dutch reggae singer Ziggi is the first non-Jamaican artist to sign a contract with the international label VP Records/Greensleeves. The label will release Ziggi’s second album ‘In Transit’ due out in the Netherlands on 22 September and around the world on 20 October. VP Records/Greensleeves is the world’s biggest reggae label and has brought us stars such as Sean Paul, Shaggy, Eek-A-Mouse, Shabba Ranks and Gregory Isaacs.

For folks who enjoy life’s little details, Ziggi lives on an island of the Netherlands Antilles called St. Eustatius.
