The New Parish 10 Year Anniversary Show
TOO $HORT, DJ D-SHARP
Too $hort (born Todd Shaw) is as much a myth as he is a man. The godfather of Bay Area hip-hop, the creator of pimp rap, the originator of the independent hustle, the controversial youth advocate and the Hugh Hefner of urban America, $hort Dog is a pioneer and a legend. His revered status is backed by an incredible track record that spans over thirty years in the entertainment industry and includes 19 albums—10 of which have earned gold and/or platinum plaques.

DJ D-Sharp is constantly on the move and a staple in the music and club scene. He is liked by club owners, promoters, artists and club-goers alike. Fellas get with him because of his hard-hitting, seamless mixes and the ladies take a liking to his personable style that literally spills out onto the dance floor. He's an entertainer and championed dance floors night after night, venue after venue, including Las Vegas, NY and LA.
He has toured with Jay Z, Kanye West, Outkast, Common, Busta Rhymes, Snoop Dogg, The Game, Pharrell, Wu Tang Clan, and Jurassic 5. He started DJing professionally at the ambitious age of 15 and kept focused through the late 90's having played in almost every venue in the Bay Area. In '99 he connected with an old friend, Lateef Daumont, with Quannum Projects, who brought D Sharp's awaiting talent into the spotlight, and since he has DJ'd for almost every Quannum Records artist.
