Lil' Flip's career was launched when he released his first album "The Leprechaun". The album quickly gained national attention and spawned the hit single "I Can Do That". The album sold over 100,000 copies regionally and gained attention from Def Jam South, A & R, and well-known Houston rapper Scarface. He was briefly signed to Def Jam, but abruptly left the label a few years later after concerns about his financial earnings. He soon signed to Loud Records and began recording his first national debut album.
While recording his album, he was apparently shot by unknown assailants in a drive-by shooting. He survived the attack and pressed on to finish the album. At the age of 20, Lil' Flip released his sophomore album "Undaground Legend", his first nationally released album, which included the hit single "The Way We Ball" and a remix to his hit "I Can Do That". The album reached platinum status even though it didn't get much promotion from Loud Records.
Lil' Flip recorded his third album "U Gotta Feel Me" on Sony Records. This album was more commercial and featured Ludacris, Three 6 Mafia, and others. The album debuted at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #3 on the Hip-Hop/R&B charts. It quickly became a crossover success with the Billboard Hot 100 Top 20 single "Game Over". The single used the Namco Pac-Man beat and the video showed Lil' Flip getting a tattoo while rapping to the single. The single reached #1 on the hip-hop charts. His follow-up single, the lover's anthem "Sunshine" featuring Lea, became the second hit single on Lil' Flip's album and went to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. It gained numerous requests on MTV 2 and BET. The album was certified double platinum.
Lil' Flip is known for his unique screwed style of freestyling (a form of slowed down rap technique) and for always releasing double disc CDs whenever he releases an album. He credits all of his success to the late DJ Screw and has tattooed DJ Screw's name on his arms. Lil' Flip has been credited for his lyrics by Three 6 Mafia, David Banner, Fam-Lay, Young Buck, UGK, Ludacris, among others. He has announced himself as the "King of The South" and the "Freestyle King".

Lil' Flip Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everybody come and bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
And if these hoes want to roll let em know, it don't matter
They can bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
Tell them niggas get off the wall get a broad, all of y'all
Need to bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
Come on and throw your sets up, represent
Everybody need to bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
Look I came to get it crunk, so nigga throw your hood up
Like when your car running hot, nigga throw your hood up
Cause we some trill ass niggas, with a whole lotta game
'
Now that I got a little change, I ain't pimping the same
And y'all know, I ride with my heater
We keep maxing hoes out, like Visa
We keep driving, them Bentley two seaters
Yung Redd and Lil' Flip, off the meters
So bounce with a nigga, blow a ounce with a nigga
And ball out spend something, come and floss with a nigga
Cause that's all we know how to do
Yeah see we some hustlas, what about you
Now it don't matter where you from, its where you at
Everybody come and bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
And if these hoes want to roll let em know, it don't matter
They can bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
Tell them niggas get off the wall get a broad, all of y'all
Need to bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
Come on and throw your sets up, represent
Everybody need to bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
I'm jumping out Air Force 1's, straps and loot
So believe it when you see it, dog we got proof
That's when I slide out the Coupe, raising the roof
I want you and you, girl do what you do
And when the syrup in my system, ain't no telling
Will I get em or diss em, that's what they be yelling
I'm a pimp by blood, Yung Redd young thug
Whatever you want to call it, just show me some love
Girls bouncing and catching the wall, that ain't all
To-night's the night, I feel like catching em all
Y'all throw your elbows, till your arms fall off
Till the club start sweating, and people get hauled off
It don't matter where you from, its where you at (where you at)
And remember all girls throw it back, you caught that
See me and my partnas, want you and your friends
When its over no problem, we can do it again
w it don't matter where you from, its where you at
Everybody come and bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
And if these hoes want to roll let em know, it don't matter
They can bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
Tell them niggas get off the wall get a broad, all of y'all
Need to bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
Come on and throw your sets up, represent
Everybody need to bounce with me, come on and bounce with me
Now I'm bouncing in the club, with my niggas you know that
But I can't get in the do', women pulling my throwback
And the bouncers steady hating, and telling me go back
But when he found out who I was, now he want a Kodak
Say cheese, cause me and my niggas we flipping key's
You going gold over here, we going platinum overseas
So bounce when you see me, on the stage trying to rock it
Bounce, when you see me cock it back then I pop it
Now bounce when I hit switches, on my drop
Now bounce when I sell out of rocks, on my block
Then its back to the lab, cause I'm a work-a-holic
Every car I drive, gotta have hydrolics
So I can lean to the left, and lean to the right
And later on tonight, I gotta catch another flight
So take this napkin, and write your number down
And next time I come in town, we can drive the Hummer around

And the bouncers steady hating, and telling me go back
The bouncers continue to express disdain toward me, instructing me to retreat
But when he found out who I was, now he want a Kodak
However, when he discovered my identity, now he desires to take a photograph with me
Say cheese, cause me and my niggas we flipping key's
Say 'cheese' because my friends and I are successfully selling drugs
You going gold over here, we going platinum overseas
While you have achieved moderate success in this region, we are reaching outstanding success internationally

Energetically move when you spot me performing on stage, attempting to captivate the audience
Bounce, when you see me cock it back then I pop it
Jump with excitement when you observe me pulling back and firing a weapon
Now bounce when I hit switches, on my drop
Now jump when I activate the switches on my convertible car
Now bounce when I sell out of rocks, on my block
Jump when I successfully sell all my drugs in the neighborhood
Then its back to the lab, cause I'm a work-a-holic
Then I will return to the drug manufacturing facility, as I am a diligent and addicted worker
Every car I drive, gotta have hydrolics
Every vehicle I operate must be equipped with hydraulic systems for raising and lowering
So I can lean to the left, and lean to the right
This allows me to tilt the car to the left and right, displaying my ostentatious lifestyle
And later on tonight, I gotta catch another flight
And later tonight, I must board another airplane for travel
So take this napkin, and write your number down
Therefore, take this paper napkin and inscribe your telephone number
And next time I come in town, we can drive the Hummer around
And when I revisit this location, we can ride in the Hummer vehicle
