Dubcnn had the great opportunity to sit down with a legend in the game, the Bay Area's own Too Short, at his recording studio in Oakland. We speak to Short about age limits in Hip-Hop and his motivation to never stop rapping.
Short compares the grind on the streets pushing tapes out of the trunk to today's world where artists grind online and blast their music out to blogs and connect with their fans on the net. As one of the first to talk about pimpin' and mackin' on records, we ask Short his opinion on Kat Stacks and the "new age groupies".
Too Short tells us about the creation of E-40's smash hit "Bitch" and how he ressurected an old record and turned it into a big success. We also get a few words on Short & E-40's upcoming collaboration project "The History Channel" and why this time it's coming out for real.
We end off the interview learning about Too Short's upcoming digital EP "Respect The Pimpin'" dropping December 14th and Short explains why digital is the way to go for the future - even for a seasoned vet like him.
Watch or read the interview below:

Get used to digital bro... It's like someone still persistently looking fir vinyl when the CD took over... sure there will be CD releases, but more and more releases (especially smaller ones) will end up being digital only in the future. For the simple fact that you don't have to spend money pressing up a product that people barely purchase anymore!
A business model that is likely to establish itself is the physical-on-demand where fans can request a hard-copy and that requested amount gets pressed up.

very, very good interview - thank you!
that was one of best interviews I've read in a long time. i really dig what short is saying and I really anticipate "The History Channel". measured against their latest collabo tracks, this record will be shit with some of the funniest lyrics ever!

Shit is funky! Short has always been one of my fav from the West! But I still love his old shit better!
