Company Bio:
Highway Records Ltd.

Established in 2006, Highway Records commenced with the understanding that Trinidad is rich in musical talent and that this talent must be exported. This natural talent manifests itself across a gamut of musical genres, be it, Calypso, Soca, Chutney, Reggae/Dancehall, Hip Hop, et al.

Highway Records began as a “strictly local” music, DVD and clothing store and is now an internationally recognized, Trinidad based, Record Label & Publishing Company. How did Highway Records achieve so much in so little time? HARD WORK!
