With the hip-hop community still reacting to the death of Nate Dogg, who passed away Tuesday March 15, My Fox Memphis caught up with the fallen singer’s dad Daniel Hale to speak on his son’s passing.

In the interview Hale, who had moved Nate from Long Beach, California to Clarksville, Mississippi as a child shed light on the singer’s last days. Hale explained that because of the two strokes that Nate Dogg suffered in 2007 and 2008 he had been paralyzed, unable to speak and living in a California nursing home until he passed away earlier this week. Hale also said that his son was not suffering, “It wasn’t a disease or sickness. He wasn’t suffering, he was just handicapped.”

The interview wasn’t all somber however, Hale also told story of how Nate Dogg found his way into the music biz. “He got that himself and it came from his friend Snoop Dogg. Now another of their friends tried to rap too. I don’t know what happened to him. I think his name was Doggy Dogg. I guess all of them wanted to be dogs,” Hale joked.
