April 28th – Too $hort was born Todd Anthony Shaw in Los Angeles, California, on this day in 1966.

Although born in L.A., Too $hort would relocate to the California Bay area of Oakland, and would be chiefly responsible for developing the “Oaktown” sound, and along with the legendary Ice-T, generally spearhead the West Coast hip-hop scene.
