I understand why Too Short felt the need to post the No Trespassing sign. His world, a pimp’s paradise populated with fine females, is a place of attraction for low-lives like myself. That’s why I’m constantly checking for new Short albums. This is album number… I lost count, but it sounds like I thought it would at this point in his post-retirement career; raunchy raps over funky beats.
Not all the beats are funky. Shut Up Nancy and Ba Boom Cha are easy throwaways. Short Dog, a rapper sometimes lost in the guest vocals of icons like Snoop and people you never heard of, also seems to be on lyrical auto-pilot these days. Still the album, which commits the lazy blunder of including songs from the previous two, is decent as far as this kind of ghetto sex life music goes.
