Willie Nelson has been known to be a lover of some good weed, and now he is marketing his own brand.

Willie Nelson made it official yesterday, he is getting into the marijuana business.

He's launching his own brand of legal weed called Willie's Reserve, and it sounds like it's going to be quality stuff.

He says, "I will make sure it's good or it won't be on sale."

He also promises to "work with the best growers in Colorado and Washington."

He's not just doing this to make a buck.  He wants to "lend support" to the legalization movement.

At this point, Willie's Reserve will only be sold in Colorado and the state of Washington, which is where recreational marijuana is legal.

In honor of the launch, he released a video of a new song with Merle Haggard called "It's All Going To Pot".  It's the first single from their collaboration album "Django and Jimmie", which is due out June 2nd. Check out the song below.
