Well he died in 2010, but I'd assume 09/10. DJ Solar was the fishy partner that took advantage of Guru, not his estate. But DJ Premier bought the recordings from Solar to make the album.
pretty sure its from right after "the ownerz" so like 04 maybe 05
edit: unless you have a source for preem buying from solar?

According to Premier, the parties settled on a figure in exchange for 30 unreleased recordings and made a deal. “Some of them had two verses, some of them had a verse, some of them just had a hook and then faded,” Premier said. “I was like, ‘Yeah, there’s enough to do something.’” He took the tracks and started to rework them into the songs that appear on “One of the Best Yet.”
According to Solar, there was “no valid agreement,” and he sees the songs being released this week as essentially stolen from him. “These are songs that me and Guru wrote together,” he said. Solar contends that the recordings, made between 2005 and 2009, were intended for a Gang Starr album — a reunion project featuring production from Premier, himself and other producers.
