TV One did a very good piece on rapper Too Short aka Todd Shaw on their series Unsung. All the rauchy lyrics aside, Too Short has managed to last in the music business since 1988 recording 16 studio albums. An
accomplishment that is unheard of by most musicians much less a rapper. Of the 16 albums, 3 are certified
gold and 6 platinum. Short was born in Los Angeles and later moved to Oakland. Too Short was the first West
Coast rap star, recording three albums on his own before he made his major-label debut with 1988′s gold album Born to Mack. Rather than go into a long story on Too Short check out the link to the episode of Unsung that can do it much better.
