While Nate Dogg is probablly one of the dopest hook writers around....to me it seems like a lot of his shit sounds the same....much like some of you think about Kaliko.
Personally, I wish Nate Dogg would just do his own work, but that hasn't been so successful in the past. (see "These Days")
I'm sure Kaliko would be thrilled to be considered in the same company of a vet like Nate.
