[Russell Bell]

this might sound corny, but in rememberance of Nate, I ended up becoming sober
for the last 10 years I've had a bad habit of smoking and drinking a heavy amount, to get through life and medicate my own issues
and let's be real, the reason Nate is dead at 41 is because of the abuse he put his body through...
smoking and drinking everyday with no exercise is terrible for the heart, and already at a young age (24) I can notice effects taking place with my own body
I'm not overweight or anything, but the past few years my lifestyle has contributed to a shortness of breath, occasional chest pains, etc.
even though I feel I've gotten to the age of maturity where I can let these vices go anyways, the death of someone who's lifestyle I emulated also plays a factor
as a stoner I've quit a million times, every smoker knows what I'm talking about... "fuck this, I gotta stop.."
the fact that I was contemplating it for a long time anyway, then Nate died, I did kinda use it as motivation to make a change
I'm not putting this shit down at all, trust me, I love getting fucked up... I just don't want to go down a similar road, and I feel I am (was)
it's been a few weeks now, the longest I've ever been sober since a kid, and I honestly just don't have the desire or energy anymore to get high
not saying I won't have an edible cookie in the future, but my days of smoking 5 blunts and partying are over...

just my little story of how bigg nate's death affected me and how it kinda woke me up... believe it or not... I hope somebody can respect that 

That sounds like a sincere way to honor the man

I can relate with some of the stuff youre saying

Nice thread, I liked all of the replies.

When I first found out Nate died, I of course started bumping all of his songs, and spent some hours making posts/threads on the Dubcc about him.  I don't have any homies here in KC that share the same taste in music as me, so it was nice having the Dubcc to fall back on, and share the loss with others.

Also, I bought a RIP Nate Dogg T-shirt which actually just came in the mail today.  So that will be one way I can keep Nate's name and legacy out there, because really it's partly our legacy too, because we all grew up on Nate Dogg's music.

It's called growing up. It's sad someone had to die in order for you to realize that.

I was at the airport when i saw he had past away. My flight was 3 hours delaid, so had nothing to do. I checked the news and then i saw it.
Had just put G-Funk Classic Vol 1&2 to my iphone so i went around listening to that album for hours. It was almoust like i couldent belive it. I love that album, but it was something special listening to it that day. Every song felt so mutch stronger and i remember i always cried a couple of times. Had shivers and goosebumps all thru the album.

Still miss you Nate. R.I.P
