Although he tries to cop part of the current P-Funk-inspired gangsta rap, Too Short sounds lost and dated on the overlong, sample-reliant, grotesquely misogynist, and musically muddled Get in Where You Fit In. ~ All Music Guide

Artist Overview
Oakland, California's original hip-hop export, Too Short was also one of the very first West Coast MCs, having started self-releasing records as early as 1983. Too Short is very much a prototype of the hustla/pimp/playa figure that has virtually come to define commercial rap in the new millennium. His career spanned more than three decades, and while he never achieved the enormous crossover success of heavyweights like 50 Cent and Snoop Dog, Too Short--who is an extremely respected rapper amongst students of the game--most certainly got paid. He released his 16th album, BLOW THE WHISTLE, in 2006.
