A consistently good album; not Short Dog's best, but up there.......2007-06-10
See, while some of Short Dog's post "retirement" albums ended up being decent, they weren't consistently good like early releases like 'Life Is... Too $Hort'. While this isn't my favorite album of his, and it does sound a bit antiquated compared to his next three albums ('Short Dog's in the House', 'Shorty the Pimp', and 'Get in Where You Fit In'), it is a classic album and one of his most important. This was the first time Too $hort went platinum, and with songs like 'Life Is... Too $hort' (my personal favorite on this album), 'Rhymes', and 'Don't Fight the Feelin'', it's not hard to see why. While this is a good album when it's all said and done, I bought it after hearing the three previously meantioned and I felt a bit overwhelmed hearing this compared to those classics. However, if you like Too $hort you'll like this important part of his history. I would give this release a good 3.5 stars. Check it out, but be aware that Short Dog has released better albums.
"Don't Stop That Rap".......2007-05-30
After emerging from the underground scene of the Bay Area, Too Short comes back with his mainstream sophomore effort Life Is...Too Short. Unfortunately this contains only the clean songs not the original release. This version also contains a few songs from the debut album Born To Mack. The title track leads this album off with positivity and a message. He incorporates funk guitar licks over deep bass kicks and keys to match production efforts. "Rhymes" and "Mack Attack" uptempo tracks showcasing Sir Too Short's flows as he spits constant without any hooks or choruses. To clear rumours, "I Ain't Trippin'" clears the air as Short give a brief history of his quest to stardom. "...now that I established one fact / I came here to rap..." a punchline found on "Nobody Does It Better" as he claims his position as a pioneer. "Oakland" is a mainstream, R&B groove that's more like an instrumental interlude. No he does not rap or flow on this song, but he does calmly takes us on a ride in a Cadillac Barritz on Trues and Vogue with the top down feeling the breeze. Representing East Oakland like no other, "City Of Dope (Edited Version)" is the darker side of the city streets. Most would ignore Too Short because of his favoriate word, but these tracks shows his versitility and has a statement. Produced, written, performed and mixed by the artist with little help personalised this LP as you can feel the sense of pride taken for his releases and this one is no let down. Too Short still "don't stop that rap"!
The Oakland Mack is Back.......2007-05-16
After he finally got a major label deal after rappin on the underground for years, Too $hort brings a tight follow up to "Born To Mack" (the only $hort album I don't have that he released from 1988 on). Like all his earlier album the beats are tight and funky and the album is very tight (which he hasn't put out a 4 star album sice 2000). Like all his earlier albums, the song count is short (only 9) but the majority are 5 minutes plus over some funky beats (that $hort provided on all songs with help from al Eaton on 2 or 3). It has 1 classic, 1 I skip, 3 ar eok and the rest are good or real good songs. Guests are on 1 song and do the hook on 1 so like most of his pre retirement albums, you get a lot of $hort Dog. a must have album.
#1 - 9 (tight beat)
#2 - 8
#3 - 7.5 (beat is tight but I ain't really feelin' his rap style on this one)
#4 - 7.5
#5 - 5
#6 - 7.5 (f/ Danger Zone & Rappin' 4-Tay -- tight beat)
#7 - 8.5 (good beat)
#8 - 8.5 (nice beat)
#9 - 10 (CLASSIC over a great beat)

Too Short...Too Hype!.......2006-06-07
This album is by far one of the greatest "Explicit Lyrics" Albums to date! Deep bass and mellow grooves. This album was not allowed in my house, I smuggled it in; with no regrets! Great CD!
Any Rap fan will love this album.......2006-03-21
All I have to say is great CD. The only thing which is my personal preference is the effects he put on the song "Oakland". Thats just me personally.. Even with that, the CD still with no doubt gets 5 stars. There are not many CD's that you can ride the whole CD but "life is too short" you can. Every single song on the CD is good. Obviously freaky tales, i aint trippen, and life is too short are the best songs. All the others are good too. If you can get this on CD the bass quality is great. The whole CD hits really hard and has a clean bass sound suprisingly considering that the CD is from the 80's. Anyway, another one of my favorite too short ablums.
