SAD,
By A Customer
This review is from: What's My Favorite Word (Audio CD)
Too $hort has been rapping since the late 70's but his last few albums have been total junk, and this one is no exception. There are three listenable tracks on this CD: Get The Cheese is a good song, and The Old Fashioned Way and The Movie are ok. Every other song is weak. "Female Players" is downright PAINFUL to listen to.So what's changed from before?? I think Todd can still rap, but something is different about the beats, they just aren't funky anymore, they are more like the junk you hear on the radio. Too Short abandoned the funk and went pop/R&B. If you want to know what Too Short is really about then buy "Shorty the Pimp" or "Life is Too Short" or "Get in Where You Fit In". In the song "It Don't Stop" from "Shorty the Pimp" Too Short says, "If the bass aint deep then something's wrong / It must not be a real Too Short song." As far as I'm concerned, Too $hort's last album was "Gettin It". Everything after that must have been done by an evil clone or something.

You'z Just A B......!!!!,

This review is from: What's My Favorite Word (Audio CD)
Too $hort never ceases to amaze me. Having been in the game for so many long years, through the good & bad, the ups and the downs, Too Short still succeeds. Longevity in the game is a prized asset in becoming a legend. Some people may wonder how can he stay consistent and tight for so many years. And people who bash Too $hort literally know nothing about Hip hop. Period. You don't have to like him or his style, but you MUST respect his game. His track record should speak for itself. The majority of his albums are at least certified gold with a couple platinum plaques thrown in there. Fourteen albums, or is it fifteen? Who knows? With so many albums it is hard to keep a good count of this stuff. People don't just look at Too $hort and say which album is his best. No there are heated debates on which is which.So just how does Short Dog do it? He does it by staying true to himself and his style. Through all the hatin on his style, content, voice, flow etc. etc. , he maintains what he has known. He talks about universal topics, mainly women. He uses fresh, creative, original beats that bump in yo trunk. And I must say this Too $hort's best album in years with friends such as UGK, Lil John & The Eastside Boyz, E-40, B-Legit, Ant Banks, Devin The Dude, and George Clinton stopping by to show love. Too $hort is the original pimp and with What's My Favorite Word?, he further solidifies his place in hip hop history. Must Have. 1. Triple X

The albums keep comin,
By A Customer
This review is from: What's My Favorite Word (Audio CD)
I've been listening to Short since I was 8 years old, and own every album from Born to Mack to What's my favorite word. As a die hard short dog fan, I think that after gettin it #10, short kinda fell off. The style just ain't the same as the old school short dog that threw out classics such as life is... and short dog's in the house. Though I do think this album is better than the last three, can't stay away, you nasty, and chase the cat, with more beats to bump to. This album gives some head bangers like quit hatin, and some funk laced beats with pimp life. I would recommend this album to others, but with some warning that it's not one that you can throw in and listen to every track, expect to do a little hopin around. For the younger cats that are just gettin into short, I recommend grabin up some classic short, like albums 1-8 to get an idea of what too short is really all about and capable of, true funk, and x-rated lyrics that pops the trunk, with every track blazin from intro. to outro.
