Nate Dogg may have died in 2011 at the young age of 41, but his music lives on in hip-hop history. Many artists who died while still active have material surface after their death, but little official music has emerged from the Dogg estate since 2011. Now Los Angeles producer SNBRN has been given a golden opportunity with a special a capella from the Nate Dogg estate and Reach Music Publishing to use his vocal in a new track titled "Gangsta Walk." To celebrate, SNBRN has announced a new North American tour from February to April.
The new track combines a hi-hop influenced, summery house instrumental, with the smooth and effortlessly, smooth and fast flow of Nate Dogg into one tune. The Nate Dogg vocal gives the track a nostalgic feel over a new school instrumental. It is a powerful meeting of two different worlds.
SNBRN is heading out on a two month tour across North America starting in February. He will be joined or joining other artists along the way like Oliver Heldens, Dr. Fresch and Shaun Frank for select stops. They will hit cities such as New Orleans, New York, San Diego, Philadelphia, Vancouver and Austin.
Check out the Gangsta Walk tour dates via Billboard. Pick up the single on iTunes.
