Untitled isn’t Untitled in a way that the song actually has no official name. It is a so called hidden track (or Ghost track), which means the audio has been placed on the CD in such a way as to avoid detection by the casual listener. In some cases, the track may simply have been left off the track listing (which happened with Recovery), while in other cases more elaborate methods are used.

The song, which features a sample of Lesley Gore’s 1964 hit, ‘You Don’t Own Me’, was produced by Mobb Deep’s Havoc and Magnedo7. Hav told MTV News that he had been trying to land a beat on an Eminem record for a long time and he eventually succeeded with this dark track.

“When it came to him, it’s like, I really didn’t want to give him a track that he was already kind of familiar with rhyming to,” Havoc said. “I just wanted to do me and doing me consists of doing all kinds of different styles than what they associate me with, which is dark-sounding. The track that I did for him, it’s dark and at the same time it can go across the board as far as the content in the sample and what it’s saying. I try to think outside the box but not go too far with it. I think I met myself somewhere in the middle, and I hit him with a track and it worked.”

Untitled is ‘listed’ on Recovery, of which production took place during 2009 to 2010 at several recording studios and was handled by various record producers, including Alex da Kid, Just Blaze and Dr. Dre. Eminem also collaborated with artists such as Pink, Lil Wayne and Rihanna for the album. Recovery featured more introspective and emotional content than its predecessor and the theme of the album revolved around his positive changes, anxiety, and emotional drives. For the promotion of the album, he featured in TV shows and performed the album’s songs live on televised shows, at awards ceremonies, musical events and also headed The Recovery Tour.

In a press release, Eminem explained that he and Dr. Dre had recorded a considerable amount of music while recording Relapse (2009), thus, “putting out Relapse 2 will let everyone get all of the best stuff.” According to Angela Yee’s Shade 45 interview with Eminem on April 23, 2009, Relapse 2 was to be a continuation of Relapse.
