After more than a year, Mighty Crown "The Far East Rulers" and Irish and Chin will embark on an explosive World Tour starting in October to celebrate another major career milestone, a third Nike sneaker deal.

The Irish and Chin produced tour, dubbed The Mighty Crown Dynasty World Tour, after the soon-to-be released sneaker, will feature three of Mighty Crown's five members: Masta Simon, Sami T and Ninja. The Crown Dynasty Tour will represent the first time that Sami T and Masta Simon have toured together in over three years.

MIGHTY CROWN: 'Now that we have gained individual strengths, it's time to bring our power together to focus on elevating Mighty Crown to another level.'

Mighty Crown has once again collaborated with Nike to release the Dynasty High sneaker. The unique studded sneaker is an elite revamp of Nike's 1981 original Dynasty High. Blazoned with the Crown logo on the tongue, the sneaker is being released in conjunction with the anniversary of Mighty Crown's Yokohama Reggae Festival (SAI) - Japan's largest Reggae stage show. Mighty Crown members believe that this accolade serves as the perfect time to celebrate with a highly anticipated tour. Additionally, according to fans, it's time for Mighty Crown to hit the road again as a completed unit. Each of Crown's members has been pursuing successful endeavors recently, which has prevented them from touring together. Now, the Mighty Crown team is set to deliver over-the-top dancehall entertainment to their fans.

Mighty Crown is the most successful non-Jamaican dancehall sound system worldwide. As a clash sound, they have defeated the best the arena has to offer. Meanwhile, as a jugglin' sound they have performed in places throughout the world.

Masta Simon, one of the sounds founding members, has always respected juggling, but his passion truly lies in clashing. The Crown Dynasty Tour will consist of both juggling and clash dates, something from which the sound took a break.

"We took a break so that Sami T, Chin and I could take on other business ventures," says Masta Simon enthusiastically. "Now that we have gained individual strengths, it's time to bring our power together to focus on elevating Mighty Crown to another level."

A strong business sense has made Mighty Crown the definition of dancehall in Japan. Notably, the sound has been afforded three sneaker deals to date, a leading Japanese record label, two clothing lines and a magazine. And finally, an annual stadium show that draws over 30,000 patrons.
