Unremarkable with NO memorable songs Dec 23, 2008 An extremely unremarkalbe album with literally NO memorable or catchy songs - which is quite rare for Too Short. Simply put, do not buy this, even for the Too Short lover. Not horrible, just BORING and nothing like his previous efforts.

Too Short is the Ultimate PIMP - If you like this album check out Smoke Sessions, Vol. 1- from his homie Devin the Dude another 5 Stars
One of Too $hort's most underrated albums May 10, 2007 The opinion on this album seems to be divided between those who think it's fantastic and those who think it's only merely ok. I think the reason certain people don't enjoy it because they just don't understand what makes it so great. This is a slower paced, more laid back Too $hort than before, and it's a very unique release from the Oakland pimp. While it's not his best - those honors go to 'Cocktails' and 'Short Dog's in the House', it's among it, and he should have definitely retired with this one.
'Gettin' It' opens with a song of the same name, and it just gets better from here. On 'Surviving the Game' Short Dog sounds very frank and angry, and it makes it a great track. 'That's Why', 'Pimp Me', and 'Buy You Some' are some of the best songs on here, and 'Baby D' is a special track featuring the talented young rapper of the same name (whatever happened to him anyway?). There's not a single bad track on here, though 'Never Talk Down' is mediocre and sounds like filler. Otherwise, this is a well produced effort that belongs in your collection. However, you may or may not understand what makes this one so great and why it's different from any other release by Too $hort.
Pretty Solid Oct 24, 2006 I'd say from all of his pre-retirement albums this is about #5. I'd def. go with the pre '96 albums from Short Dog as he is the representation of the old school funk. So get this album it is still pretty dope

Album "#10" maybe my least favorite of his Nov 17, 2005 16 months after his last album (my 2nd favorite of his) $hort is back with his last album before "retirement". Gladly he came out as of the 11 $hort albums I own this may be my least favorite and it be a shame if he retired after this. With 13 songs, none are near classic amterial, 1 I skip, 6 are ok and the rest are good, not great. Guests are on all but 3 songs, and $hort ain't even on 2 of them!! Production isn't near as funky as his early 1990's and 1980's stuff that made us all love him, but it is still decent, just not GREAT like his earlier releases. Shorty B does 5 songs, Colin Wolfe does 3, Ant Banks does 2 and Spearhead X, MC Breed and LA Dre all do 1 song. A good album for his fans to have but far from the man's best work.

#3 - 8.5 (a nice dirty one)
#4 - 7.5 (f/ Murda One, Stud and Joe Rizs)
#5 - 8 (f/ MC Breed -- about his pimp ride -- nice beat)
#6 - 7.5 (about trying to take his Biaaaatch)
#7 - 6.5 (f/ Erick Sermon, MC Breed, Kool Ace)
#8 - 6 (f/ Goldy & Kool Ace --a bout pimpin')
#9 - 7 (Baby D -- no $hort -- nice beat)
#10 - 8 (f/ Wendie Rice -- about his dirty lyrics)
#11 - 9 (f/ Rappin 4-Tay & MC Breed -- tight beat -- also on 4-Tay "Off Parole" album)
#12 - 7.5 (dirty song -- f/ Reel Tight)
#14 - 2.5 (f/ George Clinton, About Face and Gary Shider -- no $hort)
