The production squad included Shorty B (bass, guitar, drums), Pee-Wee (keyboards, drums, guitar), Ant Banks (keyboards, drum programming, mixing), and Sean G (live drums). Rappers in the outfit consisted of Too Short, Ant Banks, Pooh-Man, Goldy, FM Blue, Rappin\u2019 Ron, Ant Diddley Dog, Spice 1, and Father Dom; as well as female R&amp;B group About Face, who appeared on a few of the later releases by Too Short.<\/p>\n<p>During the 90\u2019s era of west coast hip-hop, Too Short and the Dangerous Crew were lauded for their R-rated rhymes over distinctive live funk sounds. Inspired by George Clinton and his Parliament Funkadelic, Bootsy Collins, The Bar-Kays and others, producers Ant Banks, Pee-Wee, and Shorty B all contributed to the soundscape that would come to define Too Short\u2019s sustained multi-platinum success in the coming decade spread across four solo albums, four soundtracks and numerous guest appearances and compilations.<\/p>\n<p>By 1991, and already six albums deep into his career, Too Short began to reinvent himself by putting together a collection of talent that would end up rivaling the most successful of crews in hip-hop, and on December 31, 1991 he gave the first peek at what he was compiling upon the release of the Juice movie soundtrack. With Pooh-Man\u2019s \u201cSex, Money, &amp; Murder\u201d and Too Short\u2019s \u201cSo You Want To Be A Gangster\u201d, both produced by Ant Banks, appearing on the soundtrack, Too Short had began laying the foundation for his new crew. Following up three months later was Pooh-Man\u2019s Funky As I Wanna Be produced by Ant Banks and Shorty B, and featuring Too Short and the late MC Breed.<\/p>\n<p>The Shorty The Pimp release in 1992 ushered in a blend of funk samples augmented by live drums and deftly played bass lines with songs like \u201cI Want To Be Free\u201d, \u201cNo Love From Oakland\u201d, \u201cIn The Trunk\u201d, and the aforementioned \u201cSo You Want To Be A Gangster\u201d. On the posse cut \u201cSomething To Ride To,\u201d fellow Dangerous Crew rappers Pooh-Man and Goldy joined Too Short and Ant Banks to introduce the newly-formed Oakland, CA crew. Shorty The Pimp didn\u2019t set the world on fire upon it\u2019s release, but created the keystone for what was to come from Too Short and his soon-to-be legendary posse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can hear in the album how Shorty B, Pee-Wee, Ant Banks and myself were just about to learn how to work together. We hadn\u2019t perfected it on that album, but we still pulled it off, it still sold well. I still listen back to it, I hear it, I get it, but it\u2019s not that it wasn\u2019t as clean as the next few albums\u2026but you can listen to the music with Banks, Shorty B, Pee-Wee and just the process that we used to do to make beats and songs, and that was just a flawless crew we had.\u201d \u2014 Too Short as told to DubCNN<\/p>\n<p>In May of 1993 The Dangerous Crew would show up on the soundtrack to the Menace II Society film with not just \u201cOnly The Strong Survive,\u201d but group members Ant Banks (\u201cPackin\u2019 A Gun\u201d) and Spice 1 (\u201cNigga Gots No Heart\u201d) appeared on the project as well. Spice-1\u2019s record was the lead-single for the multi-platinum soundtrack and gave even more credence to the burgeoning talent coming out of Oakland, Calif.<\/p>\n<p>Coming off of the Dangerous Crew\u2019s appearance on the Menace II Society soundtrack, Too Short released his eighth album on December 14, 1993 entitled Get In Where You Fit In. This album became one of the best rap\/hip-hop albums of the 90\u2019s, and considered by most to be a classic. The Dangerous Crew teamed up with Short to produce the album, and the legendary team made the \u201cOakland Funk\u201d styles a bonafide sound. Songs like \u201cMoney In The Ghetto\u201d, \u201cI\u2019m A Player\u201d, \u201cOakland Style\u201d and \u201cWay Too Real\u201d focus mainly on live instrumentation resulting in a sound that is clear and original, while being backed up by a supporting, unsung cast of characters including Spice 1, Goldy, Father Dom, Rappin\u2019 Ron, Ant Diddly Dog, FM Blue and others. The distinctive styles the rappers when paired with the style-defining beats combine to make Get In Where You Fit In not only Too Short\u2019s best album, but also the epitome of the Northern California rap sound during this era.<\/p>\n<p>Hitting their stride, 1995 saw the release of Cocktails, complete with guest appearances by 2Pac, MC Breed, Freddy B, and Malik &amp; Jamal of Illegal. The Dangerous Crew made this one look easy on songs like, \u201cAin\u2019t Nothing Like Pimpin&#8217;\u201d, \u201cPaystyle,\u201d \u201cGiving Up The Funk,\u201d \u201cWe Do This\u201d and \u201cSample The Funk.\u201d Continuing the tradition of laying down heavy doses of funk, Shorty B, Ant Banks and Pee-Wee flipped this project into quite possibly the best production ever heard on an album. Mixed by Ant Banks with a surgical precision, the sonic clarity of this project rivals any of fellow west coast producer Dr. Dre\u2018s efforts.<\/p>\n<p>In late \u201995, after producing on numerous albums like Shorty The Pimp, Get In Where You Fit In, Ant Banks\u2019 The Big Badass, the Menace II Society soundtrack, Goldy\u2019s In The Land of Funk, and Cocktails, The Dangerous Crew released their only collective project, the heavily-slept on compilation entitled, \u201cDon\u2019t Try This At Home.\u201d The star-studded project featured several members of the crew including Goldy and Father Dom, however, Shock G of Digital Underground, MC Breed, Spice-1 and Erick Sermon of EPMD all made unforgettable appearances on the compilation. Songs like \u201cLeave It Alone,\u201d \u201cBuy You Some,\u201d \u201cFunk Session\u201d and \u201cWelcome To The Bay\u201d showcase the genius lurking within this iconic crew.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the last time fans would hear from this pioneering crew in full would be on Too Short\u2019s \u201cretirement\u201d album, Gettin\u2019 It (Album Number Ten), released in 1996. With Ant Banks and Shorty B handling the bulk of production, and with scene-stealing features from MC Breed, Goldy, Erick Sermon and others, Too Short\u2019s final album featuring The Dangerous Crew would be the last and final (fourth) album to go platinum with the crew.<\/p>\n<p>Although the Dangerous Crew had disbanded by 1996, many members went on to have successful solo careers. Rappin\u2019 Ron died in a car accident in 1996. Too Short continues to release music, Ant Banks has gone on to produce gold and platinum albums for many successful artists such as E-40, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube and with Too Short as of 2006, while also producing two incredibly dope T.W.D.Y. albums (Derty Werk and Lead the Way). Shorty B has produced on many gold and platinum albums by artists such as 2Pac, TLC, Brandy, T.I. and others.<br \/>\n&#8211; Chad Kiser<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/chadkiser.com\/so-funky-it-stanks-a-microscopic-look-into-too-short-and-the-dangerous-crew\/\" target=\"_blank\">Check the original article here.<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"container-lazyload preview-lazyload container-youtube js-lazyload--not-loaded\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ng7P0pbPkxo\" class=\"lazy-load-youtube preview-lazyload preview-youtube\" data-video-title=\"Too $hort - Money In The Ghetto (Official Video)\" title=\"Play video &quot;Too $hort - Money In The Ghetto (Official Video)&quot;\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ng7P0pbPkxo<\/a><noscript>Video can&#8217;t be loaded because JavaScript is disabled: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ng7P0pbPkxo\" title=\"Too $hort - Money In The Ghetto (Official Video)\">Too $hort &#8211; Money In The Ghetto (Official Video) (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ng7P0pbPkxo)<\/a><\/noscript><\/div>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>CHECK OUT THE &#8216;TOO SHORT BOOMBOX&#8217; HERE Too Short introduced The Dangerous Crew, both as a production crew and rap group, to the world in 1992 on his 7th album Shorty the Pimp.
