Osama Bin Laden Diss Track is an unsolved parody rap dating from the mid-2000s. The track samples The Watcher by Dr. Dre and has been misattributed to Eminem due to the artist performing the song having a similar flow to him.
History
In 2001 after the September 11th attacks, Dr. Dre had announced a diss track against the Taliban.[1] The parody song, published online sometime after this, references Dre's statements and uses the beat from his 1999 song "The Watcher,". The song features a man imitating Osama Bin Laden while insulting Dre and referencing the events of September 11th.
The song has been frequently misattributed to Eminem due to somewhat similar styles between his tracks and the diss. This was furthered by the fact Eminem has impersonated Bin Laden before.[2] A friend of Eminem, Mr Porter, refuted this speculation in a currently deleted tweet.
Search
Initial investigation suggested that x391 had made the song, as he was one of the first known uploaders of the song to YouTube and hadn't posted anything before or since.[3] This was debunked when an older sample of the song was found in a video by JESSON12, who uploaded an incomplete snippet of it on August 18th, 2006.[4] An earlier upload of the song was traced back to a post on the somaliaonline forums on January 12th, 2006, which linked to an inaccessible "Radio Baranbaro" music page.[5] The oldest known source of the song is a torrent file uploaded to the Pirate Bay on August 17th, 2005 by user DaBomb.[6]
Debunked leads include popular parody rapper Rucka Rucka Ali, known for offensive covers and impersonations of Osama Bin Laden[7], and Denace, a rapper known for making Eminem-style tracks. Both of them were contacted by COBEYSUCKS and both denied making the track in private messages.[8]
Currently it is thought that the diss was shared through Limewire or other P2P file sharing platforms on the early internet. A few people have indicated they remember the track from one of these websites.
