Too Short is celebrating his 60th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed rappers of his generation.

Popular rapper Too Short (Blow the Whistle, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 60th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Too Short, a cultural icon

Born Todd Anthony Shaw in Los Angeles on April 28, 1966, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Too Short's not just a great rapper, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Too Short hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Too Short as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 60.

Happy Birthday, Too Short, you're the best!
