RIP Nate Dogg: Man with the Soulful Gangsta R&B Voice



Sadly Nathaniel Dwayne Hale aka Nate Dogg passed away on March 15, 201, at age 41 due to complications from several strokes over the past few years according to MTV. Although gone, he will never be forgotten because of his soulful gangsta R&B voice. You can hear him singing many choruses on fellow West Coast artists Snoop Dogg and Warren G songs. As a former group member of the 213 rap group he made his mark in the Hip Hop game as the big guy with the identifiable voice.
As the son of a Pastor and growing up in the Baptist Church he knew that singing would become his lifeline. He was eventually discovered by Dr. Dre and was eventually signed to Death Row Records. One of his many songs include regulate produced in 1994 with rapper Warren G. He was also featured on several of Tupac's tracks.
He had several issues with the laws and major health issues in the past few years as well which eventually led to his death. Nate Dogg has left behind music to be passed down to generations of Hip Hop lovers. May his soul rest in peace.
