Tributes have flooded in from friend and family through out the hip hop world, superstar Snoop Dogg has said that he (Nate Dogg) put the "G" into G Funk.
Nate Dogg born Nathaniel D. Hale has collaborated with many stars over the years and here we pay a tribute to some of the best with collaborations and some solo work. Enjoy!
I first heard of Nate Dogg when this track was released back in 1994, the track was from Warren G a former member of the 213 rap group also including Nate Dogg and Snoop Dogg.
Warren G - Regulate Ft Nate Dogg
The next I knew of Nate was when he collaborated with rap superstar Ludacris on the song Area Codes.

I have had to take a look through some of Nate's solo recordings on YouTube, as a lot of the stuff that he released was not that commercial over in the UK. The best one I have found or maybe my favourite so far is this one.
Nate Dogg - Keep It G.A.N.G.S.T.A
I'm hoping some of you reading this are going to give me some more that where great from his solo collection, make sure to leave your comments.
The collaborations did not stop. Nate Dogg went onto work with Eminem on the track Shake That Ass For me. As always with Eminem the video alone is worth a watch even if you don't like the song.

The most recent collaboration I can remember hearing is with 50 Cent on the song 21 Questions.
