For the record, pimpin' ain't dead. It ain't even close to dead, in fact. We know this because legendary Bay Area rapper, Too $hort, returns to Olympia Saturday, bringing his official "Pimpin' Ain't Dead" tour with him. Joined on the bill by Dubbleoo, Steady the Boss and Free Whiskey, Too $hort's stop in Oly promises to be nothing short of epic, a show adding itself to the growing list of major hip-hop happenings to have recently rocked our state capital.
Preparing for the release of his latest record, No Trespassing, $hort seems likely to let it all hang out live at the Royal. Hype for Trespassing promises cameos from hip-hop heavyweights like Snoop, 50 Cent and Devin The Dude, along with a vocal contribution by fellow Bay Area-artist Martin Luther.
[The Royal Lounge, with Dubbleoo, Steady the Boss, Free Whiskey, doors at 6 p.m., $22 advance, 311 Capital Way, Olympia, 360.705.0760]
