I actually hooped with Nate Dogg a couple times, he used to live in Pomona. Real ass dude.

Not only was he dope on hooks but his solo shit was slept on, though it was a little monotonous. I don't wanna say he was a one-trick pony but it wouldn't be unfair, but that one trick was awesome.

Just the other day I was watching the video for Indo Smoke and thinking of all the huge stars that were in it when they were young, that the featured cats weren't the biggest names (Mista Grimm lol) and about the dudes that passed (Nate, Pac).

I dunno who the other "hook acts" we are ranking would be but as far as dudes on hip hop hooks, he set the standard.
