Nate Dogg’s condition after suffering a stroke two weeks ago turns out to be much graver than expected.

Earlier in the week, Nate Dogg’s manager, Rod McGrew, spoke to with hip-hip website SOHH.com stating, “The prognosis at this time is favorable. We're positive, prayerful, hopeful and patient."

It is now reported by a family member that Nate Dogg was actually on life support with a feeding tube at a local Los Angeles hospital.

Speaking with E! News, Donald Smith, cousin of Nate Dogg said, "He has suffered another stroke from his bad eating habits and unhealthy lifestyle. All we can do now is pray for him”.

According to Smith, Nate Dogg has been taken off of life support as of today.
