BEEEEEEIIITTTCHHHHH.....back in the day before Eminem, 50 Cent, E-40, Master P and the rest of the tape slangers there was Too Short. This Oakland pimp put the "itch" in "bitch" and should take credit in its most varied uses in hip hop today. He rapped about the streets and was one of the originators of street hip hop. Oakland never really followed the styles and trends of the hip hop community. When you think of Tone Tony Toni, MC Hammer, and Digital Underground you can't actually pinpoint a style other than Bay Area. Enter Short Dog. He sold tapes out of his car and beat LL Cool J to album number 10. Check out this documentary as directed by Dwane Wiggins of Tone Tony Toni. Put yourself up on game. --GrassRootsEntertainment.com
