Lost another one: RIP to Nate D.O.G.G.

That voice, not much you can really say except "that voice..." LOL. Nate DOGG, popularly known for his contributions to West Coast hip hop back in the 90's, and even some contributions post-millennium; think Pharoahe Monch and Mos Def's Rawkus Records track "Oh No" which surprisingly stayed on commercial radio for a little bit. Nate had a way of making any track feel good and make us all want to sing it, whether we could or couldn't actually sing.

He had two strokes, one in '07 and another in '08 that he never fully recovered from. Speculation is out about the actual cause of death but we all pretty much know it had something to do with that. At least now, he's at rest. His family and numerous fans can celebrate and honor him.

A good friend of mine commented that it's funny that people don't really honor you until you're dead. Maybe we should all spend more time doing that while they are alive and still with us. What you think?
