The Internet Found Audio Of That Styles P "Rock The Boat/Rocawear Coat" Line Allegedly Aimed At Aaliyah | The Smoking Section
Excerpt:
"
Like the mafia, Hip-Hop is chock-full of its fair share of urban legends. Did Tupac really sleep with Faith Evans after being released from prison in 1995? Did Ghostface break Ma$e’s jaw? How about Master P and goons kidnapping Pimp C? The point being, in a genre full of tough guys, entourages and egos, urban myths happen more often than one might imagine.
One of the grandest of them all, however, is Styles P’s alleged Aaliyah diss following her death in 2001. Pac/B.I.G. and Jay/Nas are normally the first two beefs most fans think of when the topic of rap battles arise. True rap heads recognize, realize and appreciate, though, the State Property/D-Block battle from the early 2000s was about as authentic as it ever got in rap’s young, yet storied history. Both sides tossed haymakers, many of which connected in extremely disrespectful fashion.
Since what seems like the AOL 6.0 days, rap message boards and barbershops have for well over a decade championed the legitimacy of Styles P’s “Rock the boat, rock the boat/ One less b*tch in a Rocawear coat” shot. And all these years, yours truly called it a pipe dream.
Until now. Leave it to Al Gore’s world wide web to finally stop lying on its dikk."

....what if it was recorded by somebody who was in the studio as they recorded they vocals,that could explain them sounding a little different,and since it couldn't be touched up maybe whoever recorded it just threw some audience noise in it to make it sound live as an excuse for the poor audio quality
....cuz the whole thing about it bein a hoax is Styles doesn't even say what its been alleged that he said all these years after its evolved thru word of mouth,just something similar but not nearly as damning...u would think if it was a hoax the person would go out of they way to get the notorious lyrics right and have him say "Rock the boat rock the boat,another dead bytch in a rocawear coat"....this audio doesn't have styles saying that,and it does clear him directly dissing aaliyah......I just don't see the point in sumbody doin a hoax but not getting the major part in dispute accurate
