Nate Doggggg

For as long as I've gone by Nate, which is about 15 years now, certain people have called me "Nate Dog." They always say "Nate Dogggggggggg!" like you might say "Dooooooooooood!" or "Wazzzzzzzzzup?!"

Well, I was never aware of it, but it turns out that the source of this greeting is that there is an actual rapper named Nate Dogg! He's Snoop Dogg's cousin. I don't know how I could have not known about this all these years. So much for my street cred.

Apparently Nate Dogg is "said to be one of the most soulful artists in the hip hop scene." Amazing, since I've always been said to be one of the most soulful non-artists in the non-hip hop scene! It's like we're related.
