Shorty B

Profile:
Shorty B is a producer most notably known for his work with Too Short and the Dangerous crew, but most don't know he was a part of Digital Underground in the beginning. He wrote and produced "Tales Of The Funky" off the gold-selling 'Sons Of The P' album. From there, he was a part of the 4 Too Short albums that went platinum in the 90's (Shorty the Pimp, Get I Where You Fit In, Cocktails and Gettin' It).

Shorty B also produced on platinum soundtracks like Menace II Society, Juice, Booty Call, Def Jam's How To Be A Player, and Barbershop 2. What most people don't realize is that Shorty B has produced other platinum & gold hits for artists such as: T.I. (Urban Legend & King), TLC (the Diamond-certified CrazySexyCool & 3D), Nelly (SweatSuit), Bone Thugs-N-Harmony (Thug World Order), Daz Dillinger (Retaliation, Revenge & Get Back), Brandy (Afrodisiac), Spice-1 (Spice-1, Amerikkka's Nightmare, 187 He Wrote).

Overall, Shorty B has been a part of more than 85 million records sold (U.S.) and counting.

Shorty B is currently in the studio with Rico Wade (Organized Noize), Outkast, D4L, and the YingYang Twins, along with others.
