Wu-Tang Clan are going out in style. The legendary Shaolin crew recently announced the dates for what they are calling their last-ever full crew tour, Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber Tour, and over the weekend they tapped one of the sports world’s most iconic voices to crank the hype up another notch.

“From the slums of Shaolin to the world stage, they have conquered, endured and remained untouchable. The RZA, the GZA, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, Inspectah Deck, Raekwon the Chef, U-God, Ghostface Killah, Masta Killa, Cappadonna, Method Man: The Wu-Tang Clan,” intones veteran sportscaster and Inside the NBA host Ernie Johnson Jr. in the short video that takes fans to the home of the Wu-Tang via the subway as a parade of SUVs with the Wu-Tang flag crawls through the streets surveying a variety of graffiti tributes to the crew.

“The final chamber is upon us,” Johnson explains over an image of a Jumbotron emblazoned with the tour’s name as RZA and Meth meet center court to slap hands and flutter the crew’s signature hand sign together. “The beats will hit harder, the rhymes will cut deeper, and the message will be louder than ever: Wu-Tang is forever.”

RZA then speaks up, announcing the name of the tour and its special guest: Run the Jewels. “El-P, Killer Mike, let’s go,” Method Man adds in a shout-out to RTJ’s MCs.

The Wu-Tang announced the 27-date final swing last Monday, revealing that they will hit arenas across North America beginning on June 6 in Baltimore at CFG Bank Arena, with tickets on sale now. All nine living members of the Wu-Tang Clan will be participating in the final tour with Young Dirty Bastard taking his late father’s place (ODB passed away in 2004).
