Get In Where You Fit In is my favorite Too $hort album. Some claim that if you've heard one Short Dog song, you've heard them all. True, but if the music is good I don't care. Gettin' It (Album Number Ten), his "retirement" album, relied a bit too heavy on funk tracks and Life Is… Too Short [a very close second in my opinion] had a bit better lyrics than beats at some points during the album. However, Get In Where You Fit In is the perfect blend of both music and rhymes. The introduction is clever and I love how he name drops his previous material. Mr. Shaw also killed the Kool & The Gang sample on "Money in the Ghetto" years before Ma$e did the same in a Top 40 hit ["Feel So Good"]. And last, but certainly not least, "Blowjob Betty"-the best dirty record of all-time in my opinion!
