Rapper Too Short Aims To Be The Oldest Rapper Still Releasing Albums

Back in the 80's, emcee Too Short released his debut album "Don't Stop Rappin", and besides a few brief pauses he's still going strong to his word.

The young rapper from Oakland, California has gone a long way since his career first started, and has since released 18 albums. In a recent interview with Dub-CNN.com Short confirmed that his ultimate goal is to claim the title of the oldest rapper still releasing albums. "I think I just kind of set a goal for myself to play it as long as it can go. I just wanna do it longer than anybody else say they did it." "I wanna make more songs than anybody, I wanna be the oldest rapper who is active. I didn't set out to do this, but now that I'm doing it, I might as well do it to the fullest, like Brett Favre?"

While Brett Favre has 18 years under center in the National Football League, Too Short boasts a catalog of music that dates back to 1985's Don't Stop Rappin' on the 75 Girls label. Other twenty-five year Rap alumni having recently released music include Ice-T, Run D.M.C., Just-Ice, Dr. Dre, and The Beastie Boys, among others.
