“In my category, I’m the one and only,” proclaimed Oakland legend Too
$hort on his 1990 single “Short But Funky.” Few disagreed then, and
even fewer would do so decades later.
First appearing in the
mid-1980s slinging homemade tapes out of his car trunk, the man born
Todd Shaw has always stayed true to himself. And although he is known
more for the dirty side of his rap game, on “Short But Funky” he also
reminds listeners of an important fact: “There’s a serious side to
everything I say.” Short Dog’s In The House was $hort’s sixth album, and
his second for the Jive label. By the time it hit, he was a West Coast
legend, but his rep was growing Eastwards, as the rest of the country
started opening its ears to new sounds. Peaking at #20 on the national
Billboard 200 chart, the album was exactly what his dedicated fans
expected – funky, 70s-drenched beats made for cars on the boulevard; and
no-nonsense lyrics that made more sense and dropped more knowledge than
he was ever given credit for. For examples of his conscious side, look
no further than the P-Funk fueled “It’s Your Life” or the album’s lead
single, “The Ghetto.” The album’s second single “Short But Funky” landed
somewhere in the middle of $hort and Todd Shaw, talking about where he
was at as the new decade broke, and making it clear that he wasn’t going
anywhere. His mortality was particularly on his mind after rumors had
surfaced the year before that he had died in a crackhouse. He speaks
directly to this crazy episode on “Dead Or Alive.” And although it’s
mostly a solo affair, he brings in some heavy artillery – and a lot of
not-for-the-kids profanity – on “Ain’t Nothin’ But A Word To Me,”
featuring none other than Ice Cube. In between, $hort distributed plenty
of tales and charisma for fans to eat up, continuing to build his
legendary status as one of the rap trailblazers of the era. Presented
here on black wax with a poster of the excellent cartoon cover graphic,
it’s time to give this one a spin, whether it’s the first or 100th time.
