Nate Dogg is falling off big time

[Low Key]

Most people release albums to keep their name in the game, which makes them a couple million. Nate Dogg, however, can't seem to release a solo to save his life. He doesn't make his money that way. Since hooks obviously don't pay as well as dropping a multi-platinum album, he has to do a lot of them. I do believe he is not as good as he was, but as westkoastanostra pointed out, he has been in the game for 10+ years.

They dont really know how to really utilize nate in my opinion..............................Every body wants to realease a single with nate on the hook.  It gets kinda played the fuck out
IE

Yeep.

[C-Swift]

Nate ain't really fell off, homie just oversaturated when it comes to guest spots, 'cause this is a business, and when peeps hear that Nate Dogg is on a track by so-and-so no matter how shitty the content is lyrically, it goes off the shelves immediately, at the end of the day to the average C.E.O. it's all about the Benjamins

[Westcoastin']

he is still the shit, just not like he used to be.

definition of falling off..

I dont think he is, shit iv heard lately he still comes as smooth as always.  Does he write most of his own hooks?

[Sikx]

i dont think he has fell off, he sounded hot on encore track and 213 album, so, nah, he just makes damn many guest appearances, but hey he's just makin cash for bad days.

nate was always great on g-funk-beats,
he was saving tracks, that wasnt that great but at least with a little funky touch

but that new tupac track, and em's album... the beats arent made for him - i guess its very hard to kill those songs
the beats suck!

its going in a whole 'nother direction than g-funk, and i guess thats his problem...
and thats also why i doesnt like that shyt

I think Nate Dogg might actually be one of the most succesful of the West. In the great westcoast depression (so to speak) he is the only one to consistently appear on albums and singles everywhere (eventhough Snoop was definately nr. 2 last and this year)

He might be somewhat overused but I think it will be a very long time before the mainstream doesn't appreciate him anymore...I bet he'll still be singing hooks when he's 50.

[Bomb-A®]

he's on a lot of tracks..and he cant come correct on each1...and those are the ones we usually pick on and be critical off....i dont blame him tho...atleast hes making a shitload of money....any1 have any idea how much he charges for a track???



peace

I disagree.  Nate is still tearin it up IMO

[eS El Duque]

I can't come to another conclusion than this one. Nate Dogg has fallen off and still is falling off. He used to make horrible songs great songs, but now he can't even save average tracks anymore. His appearance on Encore is not that great, on Thugs Get Lonely Too neither. The tracks on Fabolous' and Lil Jon's albums are overrated by many of ya'll IMO. I certainly don't have em on repeat

The last track with Nate Dogg on it that was actually on Nate Dogg's level was Boys N Tha Hood with Daz and before that What U Wanna Do with Warren G. (I'm not counting the 213 album, but he didn't kill it on many tracks either)

Nate Dogg has fallen off like a motherfucker.

oh hell no

He's still good...

[krzieg]

Natez doin good 4 himself. He got ripped off over at DeathRow now he's makin real paper. I think Nate should just stick to doing hooks cuz most of his solo's suck. Nate Dogg is as commercial as it gets nowadays, almost every major artist has 1 song with Nate Dogg on the hook. Yet the poor guy has never had solo success.

[Sikotic™]

The guy can't put out a good solo no more so how else is he gonna get that paper? I ain't mad at him, he still brings an element to music no one else can.
