This is a sad day for me. Nate Dogg made some of the smoothest tracks known to mankind. He supposedly had two stroke a while back and just didn't pull through. Forty-one years old is just too damn young. Here is some of his best work and this song should makes everyone's day a little sunnier.
"Ate a whole damn box of fruity pebbles in one day, and ain't got no job!" Preach, grandpa, preach.
