Back in 2003 before College Dropout was released, there were all kinds of bootlegs of Kanye material floating around. We honestly did not know which version of College Dropout was the right version until the album dropped in February 2004. This happened again in 2005 prior to Late Registration being released. A lot of the tracks that were on early releases of College Dropout ended up on “advanced” copies of Late Registration. Of course, none of them were on the official release. Kanye left a lot of songs on the cutting room floor. I have compiled most of what I could and what I know into this Unreleased compilation. A few of the beats have seen some form in one way or another. For instance, “Apologize” ended up being the beat for Monica’s “Knock, Knock” and “Wack Niggas” ended up on Consequence’s album with an added verse by Common. The last track is sort of a bonus. It’s not a Kanye beat, but more of a freestyle over Kelis‘ “Milkshake”. It was worth the inclusion though!
