In late 2007 and 2008, legendary west coast crooner Nate Dogg suffered two strokes that left him bound to a wheelchair. However, since then, not much is known about his condition.

In a recent interview with HardKnock.TV, longtime collaborator Warren G said the 40-year-old singer is recovering well after undergoing therapy.

"He's in therapy getting himself together, that's all I can tell people," the rapper said. "I see him any and every time I want to. It's hard when you have somebody that got two strokes, usually the person don't make it. But he's strong. He's getting good therapy and he's pulling out of it."

Nate's multiple stokes -- one in December 2007, and another in September 2008 -- left him partially paralyzed and breathing through a tube. Through therapy though, he's been re-learning basic movements. Warren G says he's progressing and was recently able to lift his head on his own.

"It's hard when you first have a stroke, you got to learn everything over again," Warren G explained. "It's like you're a baby again. You gotta learn everything."

Didn't he get in trouble last year for allegedly abusing his wife?

In 2008 he pleaded guilty to domestic abuse charges after he
broke into his ex-wife's residence and slugged her new man (in 2006).

Karma??

I know what you sayin', but damn, that's a lot karma. Two strokes? There are people who do far worse than punching a dude out who live much healthier lives. I hope he continues to recover.

Singer Angie Bofil had 2 strokes, and I don't think that she has hurt anyone.

Identity said:

I don't think I've ever even heard of this dude

Much love to Nate.....the king of hip-hop hooks. Hope he makes a full recovery.

Wait, he was whoopin' ass AFTER having a stroke?

Anyway good luck with rehab.

Ahem....















I'd be willing to bet you've heard at least one of these songs.

Nonetheless, "legendary" is a stretch. Whatever the case, I wish him health...

RipHer2Shreds said:

Well, it's relative. Nate Dogg is certainly legendary within his genre of music.

Militant said:

Ah, you are correct, it seems. I've heard "Ooh Wee"

I heard Angela did a LOT of drugs. When I met her, her hands were cold and hard as rocks. I later learned that she used to shoot up in her hands (that's what a radio friend said).

Militant said:

That mofo could sing the hell out of a hook

Militant said:

That is my jam!!!!!

This explains his absence from the Hip/Hop honors awards. I was wonder why that punk ass, Trey songs was doing "trying" to do Nate's hooks. He should have stayed in his playpen, where he belongs..The "I invented sex", no singing bastard!!

I did not know the cat had 2 strokes.
Wow.

shorttrini said:

That's who made that horrible song?

Vendetta1 said:

Yes....That's him.

That's terrible. I hope he gets better.

Out of all of those songs??

Cinnie said:

Well, that stuff is not exactly my kind of music...

LoveIsTheMessage said:

I know but that has got to be the least famous/inescapable/culture-permeated track of them all
