no shit

I see what you did there.

You called Xzibit shit!

ahaha nah xzibit killed it actually, i was merely stating the obvious difference in the two tracks or whatever lol

I like the real version, those the originals sound like freestyle in some way with that beat..

[Wreck]

I've heard all of these. Surprised more people haven't heard of, or heard the original demos, they're pretty awesome. Google Eminem Originalz, I think it is.

[Wreck]

i'm curious as to when these were made?

what i mean is, were these done and used as a demo for dre, or where they made after he was signed and they got different beats for the album?

Also, i expected on some level even slightly diff lyrics at some point. Either way, cool find, never heard these before.

Rock Bottom was made in 1996-97 when he was suicidal because of his living arrangements, problems/constant arguments with Kim, no deal, & his producers FBT about to give up on him. The rest of the SSLP demos were recorded in late 97-98, & what's the difference was recorded in 1999. That's a fact.

Truth. Rock Bottom was originally created towards the end of 96' I'm pretty sure, and before he made the produced version he tried to kill himself with a handful of Tylenol 3s. Before it could take any effect he threw them up, and decided rap was how he was gonna live his life.

Yeah exactly, he recorded most of the SSEP & SSEP related songs in 96 as he said, & it didn't come out until a year later. & in Angry Blonde he also said that he had to wear one of Mark Bass' sweatshirts on the way home, because he threw up all over his shirt from taking so many pills that night.
