Houston, Texas rapper Lil Flip is entering into the jewelry business and launching his own line of luxury time pieces called Clover G. Watches, with Houston area jeweler, Johnny the Jeweler.

I got three different prices for the three different type of classes, the hood class, the middle class and the ni***s who just go money, Lil Flip told reporters.

According to Flip, fans that purchase his upcoming album I Need Mine will have the chance to win one of the watches, as well as several other valuable prizes.

I’m giving away five Clover G chains and five watches; there are ten tickets, so you will win a watch or a Clover G chain, Flip said. My whole career, I’ve been given the fans s**t. I am probably one of the few artists that’s still taking show money and goes and prints up his own t-shirts, bandannas to give ‘em away.

Flip will continue his generous ways with his upcoming album, which also comes with a limited edition companion DVD.

The album will also be available in a chopped and screwed version and features appearances from MJG, Lyfe Jennings, Yukmouth, Nate Dogg, ZRO and others.

Some ni***s think they too cool to give they fans s**t, Flip continued. I been doing that from day one. I gave out a hundred bikes for Steve Harvey in L.A.; I gave out 50 bikes in Houston, we still giving out s**t man.

The Clover G. Watches will retail for $800, $1500, $2500.

Lil’ Flip is joining the ranks of such Hip Hop Moguls as Jay-Z, Dame Dash, Russell Simmons, Kimora Lee Simmons, Paul Wall and Kanye West, who also have jewelry companies and collections.

Flip’s watch collection photos will be featured in URB1 Magazine (www.URB1Mag.com) if photographs are made available to the bi-monthly publication.
