Rapper Warren G has appealed to generous fans to help hip-hop star Nate Dogg cover his medical bills as he continues to undergo physical therapy following his last stroke in 2008.

Nate Dogg, real name Nathaniel Hale, was left partially paralysed after he was hospitalised in December 2007 and again in September 2008.

Close pal Warren G reveals he is making gradual progress but is still seeking therapy to regain the ability to walk and talk.

But the lengthy rehabilitation process has taken a toll on Hale's finances and his friends and family have set up a website so caring fans can donate to his cause.

Warren G commented, "Nate is in a lot of therapy right now. We actually got a website coming out where people can send donations. That's gonna help out with him, help him get back on his feet. Plus us in the industry, we're gonna do a lot to help out with him."

And Warren G has asked devotees to pray for Hale's full recovery - because doctors are still unsure if he will ever be able to sing again.

He adds, "Everybody just gotta keep him in their prayers, cause he had two strokes and that's real dangerous. And a lot of people don't come back from that. Luther Vandross did it, so hopefully Nate can do it. Cause the game needs him, I need him."

Yeah that's what I was thinking too, but maybe the "rich friends" have gone into hiding, hence the appeal to fans. Nonetheless, I hope he recovers.

These "rich friends" usually go into the wood work when someone the claimed they were "tight" with really needs their help. What's reallty touching, many fans do rise to the occasion to assist the artist they follow .

Dr.Dre alone could take care of this dudes medical bills. All the hits he song hooks on for his music catalog. This is sad. This dude was the king of hooks for hundreds of hip hop artist. This world is so cold......

His "rich friends" were not his friends to begin with, hence why Warren G is doing this. If they really cared about Nate, he'd been getting money to help with his recovery.

Dr Dre earned $17M between June 1, 2009, and June 1, 2010, according to Forbes magazine. He can't come to the financial rescue of a supposed friend who helped to make him a very wealthy individual?

Aristotle, ain't never lied.

You guys hit both notes.

Perhaps Warren isn't aware that Luther passed.

I hope Snoop and/ Dre kick in some dollars. I imagine Nate is uninsured.

Five years unaware in that case!

+ Luther wasn't fully recovered, like Warren mentioned. Luthers's talking ability had lessened. He's missed

Speaking of "rich friends", where the hell is Snoop Dogg?!?

Maybe the late 2pac had a point about Dr.Dre being too busy upstrairs in the studio "sucking dick & eating pussy" to even bother to care what the hell is going on outside the studio.
