Nate Dogg to me will always be seen as a pioneer in my mind. Singing on hip-hop songs and adding melodies wasn’t the thing to do until songs like “Regulators” and “Aint No Fun” hit the music world. Indeed Nate Dogg built a legendary status even though his time on earth was too short. Well respected in the industry Nate will never be forgotten. Rest In Peace.
