    Eminem was on drugs back then obviously but I remember he was a spiteful c---- & hated leaks with a passion. I do actually think he made alot of those s--- songs on purpose to annoy fans.

    the theory didnt develop on its own, Dirty jason had a thread saying "do you think encore is fake or real" or something like that...he was tight as f--- with d12 so we assumed it rly might be fake

    I remember when it leaked vividly... I have a personal story that I'll spare you.

    It was the night of the 2004 election or the day after...When I got it, I can't even capture the disappointment that was going through me when I played Evil Deeds for the first time.
    By the time I got to the s-----y half of the album, I couldn't believe this was real. We all saw it coming the whole year. D12World, My Ballz, and now Encore. The VMA commercial with the Mosh instrumental had me all excited and I was in denial about Just Lose It. On D12World.com people swore he put a "fake" cd out for pressing and the real one was being guarded. That theory makes no sense in retrospect.

    Sigh..
