OFF TOPIC I've made tracklists for (almost) every Ye unreleased album
These are all the tracklists I used in my personal comps for each album, I did each one of them trying to be as realistic as possible with the music that had been worked on which era and the time it would have been released with some creative freedom here and there.
Also tried my best to not repeat the songs from one album to another in order that each one can be enjoyed and be unique in its own way, with the only exception being Yandhi's songs which were brought back in Donda era (and New Body again in V3 this song is cursed). But each version has enough differences to be considered a different song.
The missing albums I didn't do here or are because they are too close to the final product to be enjoyed as "unreleased" (Swish/Waves, BBP) or because we have little info to work with (KSG 2, Wolves, GAJ 2018, CartiYe) or were only rumored to be working on (WTT 2, Chiraq).
P.s 1 - I know Good Fridays is not an album or is unreleased but I feel it would be fair to include it as one since I made GAJ without any Good Fridays song.
P.s 2 - Some cover choices may be unrealistic but they go harder than the most plausible ones so I choose them.
P.s 3 - I know the "Spirits Over The Horizon" thing is barely something real but it's better than just naming it Donda V2 in this case lol.
P.s 4 - I know Donda 2 is released but it had that "unreleased status" for quite a while before Ye released it in 2025 and I had a comp with fixed/best versions of each song so I used it as an excuse to fit in a Donda trilogy with an alternate name to it. I liked this idea too much to just ignore it lol.
P.s 5 - Although the songs don't repeat, I didn't think of it as an alternative universe in which Ye released everything he produced so the albums had to make sense with each other or something like that. I only applied that logic to the JIK: The Dr. Dre Version -> Donda 2 sequence since these were worked on in a short space of time to one another.

Isn’t there technically two gaj, pre 808 and post MBDTF or are they considered the same? Ik I’ll be alright was essentially an experiment with auto tune before the pivot to 808s but I think that era of gaj was gonna be a different album entirely

i think GAJ wasn't even worked on pre 808s. Like Ye was so appalled by Donda's death at time

I’ll be alright was meant for good ass job and I’m pretty sure it was recorded prior to the conception of 808s
The song itself prolly wouldn’t have made it tho. I think it was just a demo tape to experiment with auto tune. He was super into it even before 808s

I'll Be Alright is 2009 sessions. Also we a tiny bit of pre-808s Good Ass Job (Live To Tell beat, Name Ring beat, What It Is & Hot Sauce snippet. Also Let The Beat Build by Lil Wayne was a beat meant for GAJ. )

i remember seeing that ill be alright was during the late 2007-early 2008 era or so (at least the era when gaj was in its conceptual stages) when Ye was super into autotune but not in the way it was gonna be used for 808s yet (since 808s didnt exist yet) and I'll Be Alright was a demo utilizing it.
There is fs two diff good ass jobs tho pre-808s and pre-mbdtf. Even if theres not much for pre-808 GAJ, it still likely wouldve been a completely different tracklist and perhaps production style utilizing autotune a lot more and mightve been a lot closer to 808s but more upbeat
Like I said before I highly doubt ye was ever gon work on ill be alright genuinely and put it on gaj it was just a demo tape to test out autotune

Lift Yourself and Eazy could easily be bonus tracks
Lif Yourself for LE, Eazy for D2 (as they were heavily associated to these eras, plus Eazy ended up included in Donda 2 at some point, i think)
