Snoop yanked Akon off the single version of "Boss' Life," despite the thug-n-b star's impressive showing on the album version of the same song. Not to mention that Akon, (not Nate Dogg), co-wrote the track with Snoop and Dre. I find it strange and interesting at the same time. Akon, a certified hit-factory, adds commercial appeal. Nate, west coast's most competent hook-supplier, adds authenticity.

But who's the real boss on "Boss' Life"? Who sang it better?

• Snoop Dogg ft. Akon - Boss' Life (Album version)
  
• Snoop Dogg ft. Nate Dogg - Boss' Life (Single version)

The results are in. Nate out-Konned Akon on his own sh*t.
-Nate: 14
-Akon: 4

For the record, only other time these 2 appeared on the same album was on Obie Trice's Second Round's on Me.
