im not doubting that he made a lot of classics, there are a lot of good songs that hes done. but if you observe from a talent perspective, hes not that great of a vocalist/singer. he doesnt have that much vocal range, his subject and theme of songs are so limited. He only sings on like rap/hip hop type of songs. He'd never be able to pull off some smooth R&B stuff, that actually sounds mature or grown.
we need a nate interview

Kelly, Akon, Beyoncé or Rihanna is some kind of mature? It's kiddy-style. I rather listen to a real gangsta singer than those poppy "love-song bitches". Nate never the greatest lyricist but I don't even expect him to be that, I just want Nate to spit some Gangsta Ass Westcoast sound...
Kids Needs to go check the Vault!! real R&B isnt Rihanna, Chris Brown and shit like that ..they make Pop Music, Nate Dogg Could have Been on the same level as Charlie Wilson, Luther Vandross, Barry White or Gerald Levert or people like D,angelo & Bilal, but he's too busy doing gangsta hooks , his first album was great, but after that, he wasnt able to put sumthin that we could listen to 15 years later. Not to say that I dont like his hooks or whatever, but i feel like he could do better songs, maybe its because im getting older

IMO he did that on G Funk Classics Vol 1... esp on songs like Crazy/Dangerous, Scared Of Love & Where Are You Going...one of the finest albums i own... probably listen to it weekly.
Nate always been able to make good music...and he have done some smooth r&b nowadays at warren g's "the midnighthour"...you can't compare nate with d'angelo or bilal or cats like that...they all three are good singers and musicans but nate dogg do it in another way that's all.. he's not lesser talented than them he just do other type of music.I'm happy that not all music sound the same, you know...it would be boring if every singer would sound the same
