Nate Dogg was rumored to have passed away over the weekend after suffering complications following his stroke late last year.

Someone apparently hacked into the rapper’s Myspace page and posted something confirming the rumor, but his manager, Rod McCrew, is saying that Nate is alive and well.

McCrew says, “It’s a vicious rumor. And it’s run amok.”

Nate Dogg has been recovering at home since he was hospitalized in December, but McCrew reveals he is gradually regaining his health.

He adds, “We’re pleased with his progress.”
