M-Dudz Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Nate Dogg, forever the bridesmaid and never the bride of hip hop died following a stroke on March 15th. Â Always a fan of his skills. Regulators, people on the street.
Super Cena Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I was going to post this earlier, but didn't want to steal any of Pat's thunder. Â RIP, Nate Dogg. No age to go. Â Loved his stuff with Dre and Eminem when I was younger.
Kenny McBride Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Hey hey hey hey... Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â ...Nate Dogg passed away.
dopper Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 My best mate and I always had a running thing where if we saw or heard Nate Dogg pop up in the chorus of someone elses song, we would chuckle and imagine the people behind the scenes telling him to do bits in other people's songs and one day they might let him do an album of his own. Â I know that wasn't literally the case, but from around 1994 there was a 10 year spell where he would pop up very frequently on numerous rapper's albums. Â 41 is very sad.
Jas Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Â Grew up listening to Death Row and loved his cameo appearances/hooks in songs like Aint No Fun, How long will they mourn me, All about U and his post Death Row days songs like Oh No, Ooh Wee, Area Codes. Â His stuff with Tha Dogg Pound was amazing - "I don't like to dream about gettin paid" was brilliant and of course Regulate with Warren G.
Loki Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I hope he's spraying niggers with his gat in hiphop heaven.
Mr.Showtime Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 ....Hold up! Â Nate is in some classics, can't be denied. Bitch Please II, Regulate, The Next Episode and he seems to pop up in some of my fave Eminem and Snoop tracks such as Never Enough, Long Beach 2 Brick City and Til I Collapse. What a voice. Â But yes, some of his solo stuff just doesn't work. Stick to what you're good at I guess.

Â Looking at his solo albums it sounds more like "You doin' this one on yo' own, Nate? you sho'? 's real dangerous, better have backup." Â I've been listening to him on Spotify; check out Nobody Does It Better.
Loki Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 For those who've never seen it before, the true story of how Regulate came to be written  http://www.channel101.com/shows/view.php?media_id=3339  Don't be put off by the first 10 seconds btw - it's not porn!
M-Dudz Posted March 16, 2011 Author Posted March 16, 2011 We've had "... Hold Up" and "Hey, hey, hey, hey" but i'm surprised no one has chipped in with a "Oh no!"
Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted March 16, 2011 Paid Members Posted March 16, 2011 I'ma twist up a fatty in honour of Nate tonight, Fo' sho.
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted March 16, 2011 Paid Members Posted March 16, 2011 Slightly related fun fact - the 'G' in Warren G stands for 'gusset'.
Paid Members JLM Posted March 16, 2011 Paid Members Posted March 16, 2011 Man, gutted by this news. There are few things in music I enjoy more than a Nate Dogg hook, and that voice just can't be replaced now. Sad.
