Too Short dropped off his nineteenth album No Trespassing today, marking another milestone in his decades-long career. To celebrate the album’s release, the West Coast rapper broke down the first seven tracks on the LP, explaining that the opening cut “What the Fuck” is a response to various opinions on his longevity in the game.
“I wanted to open up with a song called ‘What the Fuck’ because basically, that’s what people say when they say I’m doing my nineteenth album,” he explained. “They’re like, what the fuck man? There’s a thing going around now where the older cats are going, ‘I hate new rap!’ and then the new cats are going, ‘Get your old ass outta here, what the fuck you doing?’ So I’m playing up on that. I’m talking about it in the song, saying, ‘What the fuck is Too Short doing still rapping?’”

I know shawt Dawg the real shawt dawg-pimp c
Me and Short Dawg, gone smoke in the coup, Im talkn bout Too $hort, not that fake niguh, the rap game full of all u cake niguhs…Pimp C
Can he just tell us which song tells us how to rape women? That’s all I’m interested in.
$hort best albums were”cocktails””gettin it” and “get in where you fit in” that was his peak musically I think.He had Ant banks producin his shit and they were just killin it.I’ll put that classic”cocktails” album up against anything Gucci or Waka dropped anyday.
Agree but you forgot shorty the pimp and short dogs in the house, I would say he fell off after he “retired” after gettin it with the exception of the occasional semi hit (blow the whistle)
and hell yea him and ant banks were the team.
“You Nasty” was the last great Too Short album
