At the age of 41, westcoast legend Nate Dogg dies due to health problems, and the world as gotten a little bit duller. For me, Nate Dogg by far was the greatest chorus singer the rap world has ever seen with his super smooth swagger and great punchlines (such as "fifteen in the clip and one in the hole, Nate Dogg is about to make some bodies turn cold" and "I need a girl I can fuck in my Hummer truck, applebottom jeans and a big old butt"). Even though I've never listened that much on his own music, he's always been there by putting his quality mark on other rappers tracks. If I had been born black in Queens, Houston or Compton, grown up and learned to rap and finally got the chance to release a single, I would have wanted Nate by my side. From now on we'll just have to manage with T-Pain and Akon... Rest in peace Nate, you're leaving a big void behind!
My Nate Dogg top 5:
1. Regulate - Warren G feat. Nate Dogg
