Gettin’ It (album number ten)

Too $hort

Heavy Oakland basslines and deadpan street wisdom. A polished, funk-heavy retirement manifesto designed specifically for car subwoofers.

May 21, 1996 · Jive

A cool, calculated victory lap that balances street bravado with veteran wisdom.

Moments Worth Listening For
The hypnotic Parliament-style synth lead that snakes through the title track's massive bassline.
The unexpected shift to a more somber, reflective tone on 'Survivin' the Game' where the tempo feels slightly dragged.
The seven-minute slow-burn groove of the finale featuring Parliament-Funkadelic legends that bridges the gap between eras.
