Snoop Dogg‘s comparing Ty Dolla Indication to Nate Dogg failed to sit very well with the late crooner’s son. 

Following the launch of Ty’s most current album, That includes Ty Dolla Signal, Snoop hailed him as the reincarnation of Nate Dogg. This intended a large amount coming from Nate’s fellow 213 groupmate creating Ty Dolla Sign to humbly settle for the honor. 

“I come to feel blessed, I truly feel honored,” Ty told Power 106. “Nate Dogg was carrying a massive torch and he passed it down. I just talked to my other homie, and he instructed me he talked to Snoop on his birthday, and Snoop stated I was the reincarnation of Nate Dogg. When I read that, I was like, alright, Snoop expressing it? That signifies every little thing. Like I reported, it can be an honor and I truly feel blessed to carry that torch. It’s going to be handed on again. I just motivate for the next artist out there, be yourself—be a just one of a person.”

On listening to this, Nate Dogg’s son, Naijiel Hale, took to Instagram where he fired off a couple now-deleted IG Tales posts refuting Snoop’s statements.

“Y’all remember this tune 9 a long time in the past soon after my daddy died and niggas wished @akon as a substitute so undesirable they didn’t even mention the full Nate Dogg sound which is in there. This is when I understood,” Naijiel Hale stated underneath the photograph of Dr. Dre’s “Kush” showcasing Snoop Dogg and Akon. He then posted a screenshot of Snoop’s responses boasting “ALL THIS SHIT Lifeless.”
