Among the many collaborators in Nate Dogg’s 18-plus year career, one success was Ludacris’ “Area Codes.” Produced by Jazze Pha, the single from 2001’s Word of Mouf.

The two would work together again on Nate’s 2001 album, Music and Me on “Real Pimp” and 2004’s Luda album, Red Light District on “Child of Da Night.”
