RIP

Oh the Ides of March turned out to be a bitter day in the LBC. This calls for a ceremonial sparking of the blunt, in fond memory of G-funk master Nathaniel Dwayne Hale, a.k.a. Nate Dogg. RIP. He succumbed to a long battle with health complications following two strokes; he died last night in Long Beach, California on March 15, 2011. He was 41 years-old.

I don't pull this out of my arsenal of secrets too often, but I am a huge fan of old school hip hop and rap. It's like another little sliver of my childhood gone.

RIP
