At one point, I owned this piece of musical merchandise on cassette, LP, and CD. I have since sold the CD in a bulk selling CDs for gas money while unemployed/lazy/drunken binge at some point. This might be my second or third favorite Too Short album ever, and it's a good one. The amazingly ridiculously long Ant Banks-thick "Something to Ride to" is great. And "In the Trunk" is my favorite Too Short song that I can think of right now this second while thinking about doing this stupid post. Without a doubt. But what I love most is that intro with the talking "shorty the pimp" nonsense, I got this record of old soul crap from Crypt Records (I think they're called something else now, but they did all those great Back from the Grave garage punk from the '60s albums) that had an extra special bonus 7-inch inside that had the actual "Shorty the Pimp" song. If I ever got the stoner mad scientist dude who said he could do it to actually fix the stupid jukebox in my hallway, that 7-inch would totally be stuffed up in that jank. You can't find much Too Short on 7-inch. I do have "Follow the Leader" on 7-inch 45 though, thanks to my man Embryo, WHO IS THE ONLY PERSON WHO READS THIS.
