No One Can Do It Better....
This past week, the hip-hop world lost one of its most iconic and beloved voices with the passing of Nathaniel "Nate Dogg" Hale. I grew up on Nate Dogg hooks...and to me he was the best singer in rap music (way before T-Paine was biting Roger Troutman's style). There was no mistaking his voice or patented G-Funk style...and chances are, if Nate Dogg was on the hook, it was a good song.
The next time you're sipping or smoking...have one for Nate and bump this tribute mix. It was done by DJ Premier on his satellite radio show. Premo always does some of the best tribute mixes (Guru, James Brown)...in that he covers their material well. I also included a song that The Game did shortly after Nate passed away. R.I.P. to the great N.A.T.E. D-O-Double G.

Irish Rap Music For St. Patty's Day!
Ok, first off Happy Fuckin' St. Patrick's Day!!! A metaphoric cheers to all my mick brothers and sister...but everyone is Irish today! Pretty nice line up of Irish spitters on this track...which is not a theme you see a ton haha. Apathy has always been a favorite of mine and I think Diabolic is one of his proteges or something...but dope in his own right. Paradime has been a Detroit rap fixture for about as long as I can remember and every year he throws a big St. Patty's Day bash showing the Irish pride. Joe Scudda is so-so to me, I'll leave it at that. No fuckin idea who Rob Kelly is. Ryu has always been really dope to me and I was a huge Styles of Beyond fan. Mac Lethal is kinda crazy and sometimes his voice pisses me the fuck off...but he does have skills. It's not for everyone but I figured it was fitting for the holiday so...booyah.
Oh and the fact that it was called "O'Doyle Rules" really made me laugh...ahhh...remember when Adam Sandler was funny?
