" Til I Collapse" - Eminem feat. Nate Dogg
This Hip-Hop Thursday is dedicated to the recent loss of Nate Dogg, who appears to have died from complications of yet another stroke. Nate Dogg was a West Coast Legend, with a smooth flow and a voice that was just made for making hooks (see Ludacris, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Dr.Dre and Eminem for further evidence).
With all due respect to Eminem's execution and lyricism on this track, and to the epic beat that gives the song its powerful atmosphere, it is Nate Dogg's voice that made this song for me. Its the backbone of the track and his contribution could be overlooked. But here, I can't imagine the song being anywhere near as dynamic without him supplying the hook.
