About Clipse:

Til The Casket Drops re-unites Clipse with The Neptunes', Pharrell Williams (executive producer of the album) and Chad Hugo, who signed the duo in early 2001 and produced several tracks on the upcoming release. In addition, the single "Kinda Like A Big Deal," the scorching buzz record featuring Kanye West, was produced by DJ Khalil and Chin Injeti. The duo debuted with 2002's Lord Willin', which reached #1 on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Album chart and #4 on the Billboard Top 200. Lord Willin' spawned the hit singles, "Grindin'' and "When was the Last Time," which peaked at #34 and #19 respectively on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Its critically acclaimed sophomore effort, Hell Hath No Fury, was 2006's Top 10 album in Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, SPIN Magazine and The New York Times. In 2008, Clipse launched its apparel line, PlayCloths which has been wildly successful selling out the first four seasons in stores and online.

Recently, Clipse and the independent urban clothing chain, DTLR, announced the upcoming "DTLR Presents Clipse By Popular Demand" tour and an exclusive apparel partnership which features an "I'm Good" tee and custom mix tape. This partnership represents the first retail merchandise collaboration with a music artist in the independent urban clothing chain's 26-year history.
