Whaaaaaaaaat? Oh my, that's so sad. I was just listening to "Regulate" the other day. That's terrible. Nate Dogg was talented and had one of the most unique voices in rap. Really sorry to hear this.

This was one of my favorite hip hop songs of the 90s. I actually never knew there was a video.

Thanks for posting.

RIP NATE

No problem.

Nate Dogg's cause of death has been identified as "complications from multiple strokes", according to his attorney.

I knew he'd been in bad shape for a long time, but I was hoping he would get better. This is sad. RIP to the the originator of the lyrical hook in hip-hop.

His manager said he was making steady progress and had regained most of his memory. He and Nate's relatives were clearly stunned by his death.

Wow, not even a sticky? Never let it be said that Prince.org is unbiased.

Was just thinking the same thing

Lady T, too, was denied a sticky when she died, despite our petition. I was highly disappointed when it didn't happen.

Not right in either case.

Let Lady fucking Gaga die; not only would it be a sticky but you would have to manditorily send condolences to her family in order to log into this site.

Nate was a SINGER and contributed to musical history. He deserves his due.

Preach? What kind of moronic shit is that. You pray death on someone else like its some kind of exchange program? Grow up ya'll.

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, is it?

Neither is his writing.

Aww, naw! I hope this is a false alarm. Most sites are crediting the same source as posted here. TMZ supposedly confirmed it but has since removed the story.

I found out from a local newstation's facebook page. According to Warren G's tweet, Nate had suffered from 2 strokes, so I'm thinking that result of that lead to his death. He was soo young, but when God calls you, it's time.

Rest in Peace ........Nate Dogg....

Prayers go out to his family form Nate's international , global fan base!

I was a huge fan of a lot of these songs at the time but hearing them back now the sheer ignorance, misogyny and hatred expressed in the lyrics doesn't sit well with me at all. Nate et al inspired a generation of eager listeners to walk in their shoes.

At the time it was something of a novelty, and I am more likely to forgive the exception, but when it becomes the rule it gets a little old.

But the leaders always inspire followers who are not nearly as good.

To be honest when I think about it, the second stroke he had in 2008 really did him in. He never fully recovered. Even if they didn't give him financial support for his illness, it was great to know neither of his "homies" never showed him at his downtime, like show pictures of him really struggling. Now had they done that, I would've cursed at them.

Yep I agree, it's definitely a matter of hindsight. Was made all the more seductive by the great beats and melodies but Nate on record sent some horrible memes out for fans.

R.I.P. to an inspiration of mine
