Styles P – So Deep (Video); Also, The LOX Never Dissed Aaliyah
Above is Styles P’s latest visual from The Phantom and the Ghost, which drops April 29th (preorder). One of the arcs of his new label NMC Music Group (Nah Right) recently posted a feature that explains whether or not The LOX ever dissed Aaliyah (who was reppin’ Roc-A-Fella thanks to Dame Dash at the time) with the below line:
“Rock the boat rock the boat/That’s one less bitch in a Roc-A-Wear coat”
The truth is, it was all a hoax. The song in question was done by some folks to tried to make it sound like it came from The LOX, and enough people bit to where it had become an almost urban legend. Styles P recently shut all of those rumors down after hearing the song himself.
