    According to the Eminem tracker, there is an early version of Spend Some Time that exists with a different, older Eminem verse. It is believed this is from 2002 during the 8 Mile OST era. The words to this verse were leaked in 2025.

    I decided to quickly take a stab at what this verse may have sounded like. I recorded this in 10 mins and put it through the quickest fastest “Eminem AI voice” I could find in a google search. I also had to try and rap with an American accent so that kinda sounds weird at times.

    But here’s the result. The unheard Eminem Spend Some Time verse from 2002 attempt:



    It’s actually kinda hard to try and guess what kinda flow he was going with. I tried a few different ways but would always end up going off beat. I guess it depends on whether the person that actually transcribed it did so properly. I imagine it sounds similar to his “Love Me” delivery.

    I feel like I got the “22, moneys new” part and onwards spot on, it flows naturally.

    lyrics to actual verse:

    When I was younger, I thought boys were supposed to go to jupiter to get more stupider
    And girls were supposed to go to college to get more knowledge
    But end up going to Mars and working in bars
    To try to save up them dollars, and strip for they tuitions, if they don't get them scholarships
    But see the problem is, same s--- that it's always been
    You end up getting caught up in the partyin', the drugs, the alcohol, and then
    Before you know it someones offerin' you that first 8 ball
    Then it's like bam, it's like runnin' straight into a brick wall and s---
    That's when you fall and slip
    Your plan was to get in, get out, and get all your chips
    Now you done sniffed half of it up your nasal passages
    You gotta do something quick!
    That's when you find out, the bigger the t-ts, the bigger the tips
    Collagen in ya lips, implants, now you dance
    Shakin that a---, just to pay for what you have
    22, money's new, 26, money's quick
    28, money's late, 32, rent is due
    Gainin' weight, tummy tucks, 20 bucks ain't enough
    Now you got to s--- and f--- just to start keepin' up

    I have go for a better attempt at some point and spend more time on it.

    Bro, that voice LOL. The overall delivery seems accurate enough in spirit though. He probably rapped it in more or less the same tone as the Spend Some Time verse.

    If it's real that is. It's a little too good to be a forgery by some Emball nerd so I'll assume it is. Reminds me a bit of Follow Me.

    Lmao. Literally just had the idea pop up and decided to get it done and uploaded in minimal time otherwise I’d probably just lose interest.

    Couldn’t be bothered tryna get the best vocal take and then spend the time trying to find the best AI voice.

    Be interesting to see how close I was if it ever leaks lol

    Fairplay in the effort of getting this done. Shows how bad he has always been with his writing when it comes to love songs. Even in 2002, his prime it was pretty dire and Superman is horrendous that left a stain on an otherwise of a masterpiece of an album. Love You More being the only exception when it comes to love songs.
