"Suprised with all the positive reviews for this album, since this is one of Too Short's weaker albums. There are a few enjoyable tracks here, but nothing to write home about. "Shorty the Pimp" and "Get in where you fit in" are so much stronger, that this I wouldnt bother with this one."

"I think that this is Short Dawg's best album ever. Every track is tight and he's still spittin' that P.I.M.P... to the fullest. A true TOO SHORT fan will never sleep on him. I still can't wait to album #20....This is a must have CD!"
Too $hort is the bomb!

"Personally, I thought Too $hort's last album was a bit weak...Some of the tracks were OK, but not great. This album is much better. Almost all the tracks are awesome, except the 4 and 8th. But the rest is awesome! I just bought this CD and I am totally happy bout it. Yea Oakland!"
Album "#12" is a tight one --- 4.5 stars

"14 months since his last album (his out of retirement album), $hort Dog is back with album 12 and it's one of his better ones, of the 9 albums of his I own. (1 is a classic, 4 I'd give 4.5 stars, 2 I'd give 4 stars, and 2 I'd give 3.5 stars). The album title tells the story, as this is vintage Too $hort that made us all love him since the mid 1980's, and he's still doing it. Of his newer albums that came out after his 1996 "retirement" this is tied for the best. With 14 songs, 1 classic, 2 almost classics, 3 are ok, and the other songs are good or great ones. Guests rap on 4 songs and do the hook on about 4. Production is tight as well. Don Brown does 4 songs, Mike D & Sonny B do 3, Quint Black does 2 and Prowla, DJ Silk, Jazze Pha, Ant Banks and Erick Sermon all do 1 song. Amust have album for fans of $hort Dog or dirty rap.
#1 - 10 (CLASSIC -- a typical great $hort song -- dirty with a tight beat)

Album number 12..........

"I like this album as none of the 14 songs on this album are filler. After 12 albums Too $hort is still comming up with funky beats for his freaky tales. The stand out songs on this album are "Anything is possible", "You Nasty", "Pimp Sh*t", "2 B*tches" and "Be my Dirty love". The album is worth the price for these five tracks alone.
The other songs on the album are also quite good, but the above five are the real stand outs."
