Album "#15" is another alright one - 3.5 stars Nov 11, 2005 Just a year since his last album, $hort Dog is back with album 15. Of the 10 I have of his albums, this falls in the bottom third . Typical Too $hort that we all love, but without the tight beats and 6+ minute songs. A good amount of dirty songs, but once again as with most of his albums after his '96 "retirement" the production is lacking. Of the 15 songs, 9 are good (no classics and only about 2 are real good), 5 are ok and 1 I skip. Guests rap on 2 songs and do hooks on about 9. Production is as I said, ok but no that old school classic $hort funk that everyone loves. Dez does 8 songs, Lil Jon does 5 songs and Jazze Pha and the great Ant Banks each do 1 song. A good album for his fans to have but not his best.
#1 - 8 (f/ Jagged Edge & Jazze Pha)
#2 - 9 (f/ Dionne Denham -- great beat from Big Bad A$$ Banks)
#3 - 7.5 (f/ Oobie)
#4 - 9 (f/ Petey Pablo & Noreaga -- tight song but $hort is out of place on here -- good beat)
#5 - 7 (f/ Lil Jon)
#6 - 8
#7 - 8 (f/ Devin the Dude & Cutty Cartel)
#8 - 8.5 (nice beat)
#9 - 7 (f/ Dez who drops an annoying hook)
#10 - 5
#11 - 8 (good beat)
#12 - 7.5 (f/ Dez -- he gives props to Cali Girls -- not $hort-like)
#13 - 6.5 (f/ Val Young)
#14 - 8.5 (f/ Val Young -- nice beat)
#15 - 8 (f/ Dez)

Good Album But The Older Albums Are Better. Oct 14, 2005 It's a good CD, But I think that his older LPs are better (late 80's and early to middle 90's speaking). Because back then he
and Ant Banks were making beats that was full of funk and bass
now he is working with people like Lil' Jon on which I think
isn't right for him. And another thing, after 25 years he is out
of know where showing golddiggers, hoes, & groupies respect!.
What happened to songs like "Ain't Nothing But A Word" &
"All My B****** Are Gone" instead of songs like
"California Girls" & "Female Players"? I hope you are not getting soft on me, $hort. I think the only way to attract your old fans again and to sell like you use to, is to go your old style. FAST!!!!!!!!!!

Married To The Game Oct 25, 2004 This was a very good, but personnally I liked Life Is...Too Short better
1.Choosin' ft. Jazze Pha & Jagged Edge-4.5/5-Nice Jazze Pha beat, but the biggest problem with this song was the Jagged Edge verse, because i definately preffer them on hooks
2.What She Gonna Do?-5/5-One of my favorite songs on the album, love the beat and short's verses are great
3.That's How It Goes Down ft. Oobie-3.5/5-Good song, but the rapping isnt great on this one
4.You Can't F*ck Wit Us ft.NORE & Petey Pablo-5/5-One of the best songs on the album, has a great crunk feel, and 3 great MCs
5.Shake That Monkey ft.Lil Jon-5/5-The reason i bought the CD, not a traditional Lil Jon beat, but great anyways
6.Burn Rubber-5/5-Another "non-crunk" Lil Jon production, but this is probably the best track lyrically
7.Hey Let's Go Ft.Cutty Cartel & Devin The Dude-4/5-Very good song
8.Pimpandho.com-4.5/5-Too Short raps about his favorite subject :-D, nice beat too
9.Hobo Hoeing-4/5-Annoying chorus, but a nice beat and short's good on this one
10.Get It-5/5-Another one of my favorite songs on the CD, maybe my favorite beat on the album and Too Short drops really hot verses
11.Married To The Game-4/5-More nice production, and Short still doesn't disapoint
12.California Girls-3/5-Good song, but i don't like short's slower songs too much
13.What's A Pimp?-3/5-Another slower song
14.Don't Act Like That-4/5-Short's very good lyrically on this one
15.Short Short-3.5/5-Pretty annoying beat but short makes it still a good song
This CD is definately reccomended for any West Coast and/or Bay Area fans, and any other rap fans in general, but its not a classic like Life Is...
