However, there are a few Kanye tracks on this tape that you probably haven't heard anywhere else, most notably the tracks: As such most tracks are snippets / shortened versions of songs already featured on other commercial albums. This mixtape is a compilation of tracks produced by Kanye in the early 2000's when, at least in the industry, he was more just a producer than a producer and a rapper. The one kinda decent track that I don't think ever made it anywhere else is I Met Oprah. Features early versions of a bunch of tracks from Ye's first three albums and that Wow track he talks about on Last Call.
I doubt many will add this to this their music libraries because all the good stuff eventually made it on to an album and its pretty low-fi, but its probably worth a listen or two for interest's sake. "Baby's Coming", another Go-Getters track not on this project also surfaced in 2016.Īn early demo tape, and essentially the first solo project from Kanye. The group never released an official album, but various tracks have surfaced online over the years. It's an unofficial compilation of tracks from the now dead Kon-Man Productions, including plenty of content from Kanye's first group, The Go-Getters. This features, I believe, Kanye's earliest available vocal work. The beats themselves obviously lack the experimentation of his later work, but are nonetheless interesting to listen to.

It only emerged recently and can't find any verification that these are genuinely by Kanye, but it seems legitimate.

r/Kanye doesn't allow download links, but they exist out there if you look hard enough.Īlso note, I'm not an expert and may well have missed something out (please let me know if I have), but this should be an at least fairly comprehensive guide to Kanye's earliest stuff.Īn instrumental tape of 8 super early unreleased Kanye beats from around September 1997. That being said, there is some still good stuff here that never made it to commercial release, and it is still pretty cool hearing early versions of tracks like All Falls Down and Homecoming. You'll also recognise a lot of the bars he spits - most of the best stuff was eventually revisited and made into tracks from his first three albums. His flow hadn't fully developed yet, his voice is deeper and (IMO) less interesting and the audio quality of most tracks is pretty low. Note: Kanye's very earliest stuff isn't listened to much for a reason - it ain't actually super great.
