Morphology

unreleased = released (transparent) = un + release + ed

The adjective is formed by prefixing 'un-' (not) to the past participle 'released', so the meaning is directly derived.

Etymology

Unreleased is made from un- meaning 'not' and release meaning 'to let out or make public'. So an unreleased song, film, or product is 'not let out' — it is kept back and not available to the public.
