Too $hort gives clues about his new album and the way of his music

Too $hort spoke about his music and how he combines comedy with his music to dilute the vulgarness in it. He explained in detail on Page Six:

“The formula to my music is that it has to have comedy in it. The vulgarness cannot be digested without a little comedy,”

Too $hort also spoke of the start of his career in the music industry when Eazy-E had helped him. He said:

“Eazy-E was the person to take me on my first tour, and there was nobody telling him to do it.”

Too $hort continued:

“I did not used to hang out with Dr. Dre, After the show, Eazy-E would go places . . . we are going out chasing women. Dre wasn’t even really into that, even back then. Eazy was my homie. We ran together, we did the strip clubs.”

Too $hort talks about Eazy-E’s death

Too $hort also touched on the topic of Eazy-E’s death in 1995 due to complications of AIDS. He said:

“I don’t necessarily agree.”
“I don’t really want to get into that right now. But that is not how I think it happened. I just like to think of it like this: Since you brought up Eazy-E. Let’s say if there was no Eazy-E, how does that impact hip-hop? If you had no Eazy-E, you got no NWA, no Dr. Dre, no Ice Cube, no Tupac Death Row years . . . no Bone Thugs. No Aftermath, no 50 Cent, no Eminem — the way we know them. The branch that is called Eazy-E on the hip-hop tree is massive.”
