"2023 is the year of Too $hort at Get On Down with the fourth reissue and album number seven in the catalog of the Bay Area legend. Shorty The Pimp was released on July, 14, 1992 and has not been in print since we originally reissued it on wax in 2018. Taking the title from the incredibly rare 1973 Blaxploitation film, Too $hort does what he does best on Shorty The Pimp: funk beats, boastful braggadocio, a few conscious rhymes and layers of straight up pimp talk. The lyrical content can certainly be considered comical and entertaining. Shorty The Pimp is also a stand out project for producer Ant Banks who did many of the beats for the project, his first working with Too $hort with many more to follow over the next decade. Pressed on orange-colored vinyl with hand numbered obi. Limited to 1000 copies."
