context_page_description: Nathaniel Dwayne Hale, better known by his stage name, Nate Dogg, was an American singer, rapper and songwriter. His smooth vocals made the hooks of numerous artists' rap songs, especially in the West Coast's G-funk era in the 1990s.
  Nate was in 213, a trio formed in 1990 with Snoop Dogg and Warren G. Once Snoop joined Death Row Records as a solo artist, Nate complemented some of his guest verses on Dr. Dre's debut album, The Chronic, and Snoop's debut, Doggystyle. Nate's greatest musical success arrived in 1994 as his cowritten duet with Warren G, the single "Regulate," which reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100. As a featured artist, Nate charted 16 times on the Billboard Hot 100, and in 2003 reached number one via 50 Cent's "21 Questions."
  In December 2007, Nate sustained a stroke, weakening his body's left side, while his cognition and voice remained intact. Several months later, he sustained another stroke. In 2011, Nate died of heart failure at age 41.
