Mighty Crown Celebrates New Sneaker Deal with Explosive World Tour


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 2009 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.

The super sound 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 with their dancehall madness!

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, who sometimes have just one opportunity a year to catch a glimpse of their favorite sound. With dates going quickly, the Crown Dynasty Tour is destined to be a hit.

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 through out the world. At this time, Mighty Crown is armed, dangerous and ready for war. Masta Simon, one of the sounds founding members, has always respected juggling, but his passion truly lies in clashing. And why not? It's clashing that made the sound famous! The Crown Dynasty Tour will consist of both juggling and clash dates, something the sound took a break from. While Simon, Sami T and Ninja tour, members Supa Gee and Coji will continue locking down Japan.

"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."

The Crown Dynasty Tour will certainly send shock waves through the dancehall industry -- revitalizing the sound system tour phenomenon. Mighty Crown is eyeing 20+ dates for the tour and can't wait to get back to the arena!

Mighty Crown is ready to add this high profile tour to their growing list of accomplishments. A strong business sense has made Mighty Crown the definition of dancehall in Japan. Notably, the sound has been afforded with 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
