Wee Wee (claimed to be a warmup track, but was never confirmed. no slurred voice. Zach and Miri was released in 2008)
Clearly a hybrid of Encore and Relapse, you can hear the beginnings of Relapse in it, and it's 2008.
Obviously not 2009 as it's too sloppy and unfixed... Em had mastered the Relapse style by then, as Relapse came out early 2009, so he had obviously made the bulk in mid-late 2008...
Zach and Miri came out Oct 2008, which is weird as that's pretty late into the year... but there is parts of complexity etc., so he probably truly mastered the shit in like Nov... he must have made a shit load of material really fast then... unless this was just a fuck-around track in between to just try out new lines or flows or something.
python wrote:Syllables (his voice sounds pretty normal, but people say it was recorded in 2007)
Eminem's style always denotes the era; around 2006-7 he was mostly sluggish and angry (though I believe this was more affection than people realize / think) or he resorted to his southern accent and rapped nonsense... compare his style here to "Jimmy Crack Corn" and also the Stat Quo tracks that leaked around the same time; you can hear his voice and style is of that era.
I'd say it's mid-late 2006, and possibly made for The Re-Up; doesn't sound like something he'd put on an album.
python wrote:My Darling (his voice is slightly slurred, and the references sounds like something from 2007-2008, some people claim it's from 2009)
Clearly not from 09 due to the style and his rhyming etc.
You can hear the progression and his place in time from how he's spitting, and he sounds nothing like 09 Em hear and I don't just mean in tone or voice, I mean with rhyming ability and style etc.
I think he perhaps initially created an intro for King Mathers that was similar to Dr. West... as, "My Darling" is clearly the lead-in, and this intro of course mirrors the SSEP intro... and you can even hear the voice say 'my darling' in the Dr. West intro...
So, I think this was made as an opener for King Mathers.
Em mentions 'losing his wife'... which signifies this was either made prior to January 2006 aka it's an 05 track, or, it was made after the second divorce aka early 2007... I'd bet on it being the 2007 due to the darkness and lack of rhyming, as in 05... he was rhyming better, although the style is somewhat similar to "When I'm Gone".
python wrote:Be Careful What You Wish For (no slurred voice, but people still claim it's from 2006-2008)
Em does have an affected, sluggy anger here... obviously a King Mathers track; you can tell not only by his rapping style, but also the rhyming style and his production.
All the King Mathers tracks are produced by him and have similar, dark, seething musicality.
I think all the King Mathers material was made 06 and 07, some are from 06, and some are from 07, but he also wrote some of the shit in 05, like part of "Beautiful"...
On here though, he says "eight years later I'm still at it", which could signify it being 2007, as 99 (debut) + 8 = 2007, BUT, he also says 'divorced, remarried...", and doesn't say divorced again, meaning it's probably before 2007, as he got divorced a second time in December 2006.
Which would also make sense as 98 (debut of first single) + 8 = 2006.

This was definitely 04-06 and probably / I think was made for Second Round's on Me.
Em's flow and lyrics are too complex to be 07 or 8, and his style is nothing like either year; he sounds like he did on some other 06 tracks such as "Hurt You" and "There They Go". 06 he was mostly talking gangsta crap though which makes me think it's a little earlier... style kinda sounds like 04 voice, so could be 04, 5 or 6 imo.
python wrote:Get Money (slight slur, but sounds same as MD, which people claim is from 2009)
"Get Money" was big in 07 / when it was released... I know he could have still recorded a freestyle to it in 09 anyway but nothing about this suggests it's 09; sounds 07 - his attitude and ideas, and rhyme style all point to it being 07. It's a freestyle though, obviously not intended for an album.
python wrote:The Apple (barely a slur, sounds like Encore-2006)
Too angry and growly for Encore; possibly 05... but more likely 06. Sounds like it was made for King Mathers, or in some kind of transition phase; all the King Mathers tracks have him singing and rapping angrily, and are all emotional, and are produced by him; and the rhyme style is the same.
Seems like a lot of KM material was made in 06, and he put some of it on The Re-Up, "No Apologies" for example.
