Mikey Dread is known as one of the most versatile artists, performing as both a producer and an artist. In the late seventies he founded his own label and worked with artists such as Edi Fitzroy, Sugar Minott and Earl Sixteen, but also produced his own work. He released "World War III" on his own label in 1980. The album contains the tracks "The Jumping Master", "Money Dread" and "Break Down The Walls".

“World War III” is available in a limited edition of 1,500 individually numbered copies on Transparent Yellow vinyl.
