Oakland, California based emcee Too $hort unleashes some legendary footage from his vault, for the GO $HORT DOG music video

“15 million Soundscan. Let me think back to how it began…”,

Too $hort narrates as a classic photo of him and Freddie B. dating back to 1983 hits the screen.

Directed by Maxwell Robinson, the legendary video for ‘Go $hort Dog’ marks the second release from Too $hort’s highly anticipated, forthcoming 20th studio album ‘The Pimp Tape’ (Dangerous Music/EMPIRE) set for release November 09th.

Through his video, $hort goes on to lyrically and visually depict his fabled career while paying a nod to other legends such as Ice Cube, Eazy-E, Kid Rock, Notorious B.I.G., Tupac, Pimp C, Jay-Z,T.I., Scarface, Bushwick Bill, Willie D, Lil Jon, Jazze Pha, Jermaine Dupri, 8Ball & MJG, MC Breed, and Lil Kim.

He reminiscences on being the first rapper from his hometown of Oakland, California to receive a platinum plaque, which has now gone 6x platinum and 4x gold.

Too $hort has successfully cracked the code to Hip Hop immortality with 32 years, 15 million Soundscan sales, 6 platinum plaques, 4 gold certifications, and collaborations with the likes of Tupac, The Notorious B.I.G., and Jay-Z. With Drake utilizing his flow and lyrics on the double platinum DJ Khaled smash ‘For Free’ and Yo Gotti and Nicki Minaj twisting ‘Freaky Tales’ for ‘Rake It Up’, Too $hort’s influence is timeless, and his impact is felt across the globe.

As far as West Coast Hip Hop icons, Too $hort deserves mention in every conversation alongside Dr. Dre, Tupac, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, and E-40.

His forthcoming project ‘The Pimp Tape’ should leave no question about his spot at the top by embracing everything listeners fell in love with since 1985.
