Album Number Eight (Rating: 10 out of 10- -5 stars).......2006-12-19

See, this is why I love West Coast music. Too $hort's eighth album "Get In Where You Fit In" is so funky, words cannot explain how much I fell in love with this album. I got into Short Dog back in 2000, with "You Nasty", and felt that I should check out his earlier work. This was the very first album I picked up, in his albums before his retirement.

First, Too Short's rhyme skills are great throughout this album. Just about every song he really kick some dope rhymes. Whether if it's about his pimp game ("BJ Betty"...would be used in a recent DTP song), life in the ghetto streets in Oakland ("Money In The Ghetto"), or just in the day in the life of ol' Short Dog ("Just Another Day").

Production is PERFECT, curteosy of The Dangerous Crew, Ant Banks, and QDIII (who produced Ice Cube's "Lethal Injection" album). QD III produces only one track, "Just Another Day" and that track clocks in about 7 minutes of funk. Some other funky produced tracks throughout this album is "The Dangerous Crew" , "Money In The Ghetto". ALL of these tracks are well produced. I've been listening to rap music for a LONG time, and I'd say, when it comes to production in albums, this would be ranked in my top 5. It's THAT good. (I can't stress that enough)

Guest appearances also bring their A game. "The Dangerous Crew" would feature Bay Area arists Spice 1 (I might want to look into this guy too), Ant Banks, Mhisani, and Pee Wee. Ant Banks also appears on "All My ******* Are Gone" (he says the tighest line towards the end of the song).

Flaws are very little, if you can find any. If you're one of those people who gets offended by derogitory comments toward women, you might not want to come near this or any other Too Short album. Other than that, this album is perfect. I purchased this album about 5 months ago, and it easily became in my top favorites. This is also my first Too Short album pre-retirement, and I'd say I made a very good choice here. If you're reading the reviews here, you need to click the "Add To Cart" button right now. At the price it's listed right now ($9.99 damn near a steal if you ask me), there should be no excuse of why you're not going to pick up this album. It's albums like this that make me wish I lived in Oakland.

Get In Where You Fit In.......2006-09-30

What I like about $hort Dog is that throughout all of his material and extensive career in rap he remains REAL. Keepin it real now-a-days is a cliche, but $hort always remained true to the music he makes. Buying every Too $hort LP would be a library in its own. (Although, I do recommend doing so.) If you haven't picked up anything from him yet, you have to buy this record. Hands down my favorite release from him.

Too Short's finest album........2006-09-04

I have purchased EVERY Too Short album. I have listened to all of them many many times. People who know me know that I am not a traditional rap hip-hop fan. Yes I love Rap and Hip Hop, but I don't like someone just cause someone else does, and some of the rappers that people think are the greatest aren't. Clue, my top ten is not what everyone else seems to think is the top ten. Too Short is my number one for many reasons; length of career, quality of music, what he has done, etc etc. What HASN'T Too Short done. This is my favorite because NONE of the songs get tiring or boring. I have gotten people who listen to metal and old stuff to like this album. His beats and samples are used to perfection, and people will be sampling his stuff once he is done. Every song gets a 5. You can't rate something with threes and fours and have it a five for the album. So if you want a good party album with quality sound and feel to it, buy this album.

Classic early 90 west coast CD.......2006-04-11

Classic Short CD. Not one of my favorites but its defenitly worth having. Great tracks are blowjo_ betty, all my bitches are gone, get in where you fit in, i'm a player. You can't compare it to Shorty The Pimp his previous album with is one of my favorites. The album really talks about whats it's called Get in where you fit in. You belong where your supposed to be. Everyone knows where Too Short wants to be up in. Beeyatch! For every Too Short review check out my other reviews

CLASSIC -- album "#8" is his best.......2005-11-17

WOW!! The Oaktown pimp really went overboard with album 8. Just 15 months since his last album, he comes with his best and funkiest album of all 15!!! With 13 songs of straight funk, it has 3 classics, 2 almost classics and the rest are real good or great songs. Guests aren't all over, just on most the last half of the album, and it is mostly his Dangerous Crew clique. The production is GREAT, in the words of DJ Quik it's "Way 2 Fonky". Every song has an unreal beat and the dangerous crew posse is to thank (as well as 1 great track by QDII). Ant Banks does 5 songs and the Dangerous Crew does 7 (no wonder this may be the best produced album I ever heard and I have over 675 rap albums! Ant Banks, Dangerous Crew and QDII -- No words here just listen and you'll understand) A must have album for all.

#1 - 8.5 (short amount of rapping and alot of talkin but tight -- nice beat as well)
#2 - 9 (about him being player -- good beat)
#3 - 11 (CLASSIC!!! -- GREAT BEAT and 7+ minutes of funk)
#4 - 9 (dirty songa bout having no ho's -- tight beat)
#5 - 8 (about money in da hood)
#6 - 10 (CLASSIC and his dirtiest song ever -- nice raggae beat)
#7 - 8.5 (f/ Ant Banks -- tight beat -- about how al his biaaatches are gone)
#8 - 9.5 (f/ Spice 1, Goldy, Ant Banks, Pee Wee - the Dangerous Crew!! -- great beat)
#9 - 8.5 (f/ Rappin Ron {R.I.P.} & Ant Diddley Dog -- dissin Pooh Man)
#10 - 10 (CLASSIC w/ GREAT BEAT)
#11 - 9.5 (f/ Father Dom & Ant BAnks -- tight beat)
#12 - 9 (f/ Leslie Calaway -- nice beat)
#13 - 8 (FM BLue f/ Too $hort)
