@michaelvelotta4896 yea. The original. The one on his album it was written. There is another good song on that album but it's on the cd. It's only on the cassett
@@re-mix1040 Well the same way you would bite anything; change the original to make it sound as if you thought of it yourself, then again hip hop was born on a bite so 🤷♂️
Honestly, I heard this one before the album version. It was on a mixtape called "The Death of Escobar" if I remember correctly. That mixtape also had other demo version from The Lost Tapes including the demo version of "Gotta Love it".
@@Rebelofhiphop I thought that was closer to like 1998, probbaly same stuff as Nas 2000... Fetus was there, the original project windows, poppa was a player, Stay Alive, etc. Those were the days. I remember bumping Nas 2000 and Cormegas mixtape Montana Way heavy that summer
How is nas not the goat fit New York. He came out 30 Years ago with the best hip hop album ever and still is !! And still making gems and nobody else is !! And off these words alone , it’s no comparison idgaf who bring up !
WHOA__ take it in blood was my favorite song as a kid. I'm 38 now and hearing this for the first time. Just imagine ___. Oh yeah, and do nothing but go to the gym now. Talk about ABOUT TO GET MY MONEY ___ n.a.s are the letters that spell......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believe this “cleaned up” version of the song in this video is mine. I looped the choruses as best as I could, to clean up the available version from a Whoo Kid mixtape
I see why Columbia made change it, the lyrics are here are crazy but they would be hard for the average listener to keep with. Also the album version is a bit more focused subject wise.
well the track Take It In Blood was actually not finished mixing because Stretch passed away so out of respect, Nas left it unfinished mixing and it wouldnt make sense for this version to come out.
MY MOMS SAID TAKE CHEDDAR. ….. BY SLUGGS OR DRUGS…… WHATEVER CALCULATES BETTER…. ESCO U DEFINITELY GODS SON. YOU WAS WAY AHEAD OF THE WANNA BEES. GAY Z HATING ON THE GOD….. ASA TO THE GOD.
People don’t realize some
Of these verses on lots of these unreleased songs are some of greatest flows and verses ever ..unreal talent nas is.
Fucking legend!! Like Mike Tyson in his prime
Facts
Ax,,]]8`°
Nobody could of touched Nas lyrically in 96 . He was ahead of its time. It was written
Yo is this Antonio Powell?
Yo is this Antonio Powell?
I like it was written better than illmatic
STR8 FACT!!!@@sumwonkool
I mean ghost face was there too
Nas is the definition of God M.C .
Literally
Nasir is my favorite hip hop artist ever. I fell in love with his rhymes back in 96' and it never stopped.
Take in blood is lup fiasco favorite rapper song of all time. He said the first verse is the best lyrics he ever heard. That's says alot .
Thank you for that
The original ?

Vintage Nas can’t be seen.
I feel like this was the original version but Nas thought it was too complex so he made it less aggressive and toned the lyrics down.
I think so too.
You basically bit another comment that you commented on 😂😂
@@jsss3604 How do you bite a comment?
Anyways, I actually feel that way about this joint.
@@re-mix1040 Well the same way you would bite anything; change the original to make it sound as if you thought of it yourself, then again hip hop was born on a bite so 🤷♂️
Can't nobody tell Nas ain't the greatest of all time. No one can see Nas with the ink.
best rapper of all time
Nas. Listening to this is like watching iron Mike in his prime. Savage flows!! LFG.
I missed this and I'm a huge Nas fan.
Me too smh. To dope
Honestly, I heard this one before the album version. It was on a mixtape called "The Death of Escobar" if I remember correctly. That mixtape also had other demo version from The Lost Tapes including the demo version of "Gotta Love it".

The best to ever do it
Nas the Greatest!

Taking it "to the lab" now.
#ReNewEra of Hip-Hop
Way ahead from all Rappers
Cats ain't rapping like this
EVER🔥
Can't believe this my first time hearing this🔥🔥🔥🔥
You heard Sinful Living?
@@ikembaojore3877 nah
@@juliusmcfadden5915 check it out, it's on youtube. Another Nas masterpiece
Same here and I'm going thru all my old mix tapes to see if i overlooked this track but i can't even find this.
@@fr3edomcrysame here man. I never heard this version of the song. And Take It In Blood is my favorite Nas track.
The 🐐 Italian model train like Cus Dmato Mike Tyson trainer he went hard on that bar
After hearing this, I'm convinced that the first version from the album was a freestyle.
Why?
@@antlew8077 cuz this one is wayyy better
@@re-mix1040 this is the original, Columbia had him edit it to make it conceptional
True
@@re-mix1040 trippin. “Currency is made in the trust of the messiah” is a hard ass bar. The original is amazing
So dope! Hope he comes out with a Part II. Don has been under the radar for too long. Even though he’s been blessing us for 30 years. Now’s the time!
How is nas not the goat fit New York. He came out 30
Years ago with the best hip hop album ever and still is !! And still making gems and nobody else is !! And off these words alone , it’s no comparison idgaf who bring up !
this is fucking crazy
This was dope... it's always good to hear a different version to one of your favorite songs however I'm sticking with the original for my favorite
RIP STRETCH ON THE TRACK 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of the beats of all time
🎤👍🏾💯
Same energy just like yesterday 1995 to 2024!!!
God gave Nas the gift of lyrics an this part 2 is crazy Nas is truly the best to ever rap pure facts
Pure Escobar 💯
I just herd this today. Wtf. He dumpin
Love this version!
Nas is elite
The original is more streamlined. He was in his bag here too though. It's giving Clue mixtape freestyle vibes .
I love the rhyming patterns, his flow and imagery on this but the album version as a song flows better.
WHOA__ take it in blood was my favorite song as a kid. I'm 38 now and hearing this for the first time. Just imagine ___. Oh yeah, and do nothing but go to the gym now. Talk about ABOUT TO GET MY MONEY ___ n.a.s are the letters that spell......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cannot believe I've never heard this
Nas is and always will be that guy 💯💪🏾☝🏾
This is my fav nas track
mine too bro. Milestone of HipHop
I heard this on stretch and bob .. 😂😂😂 it’s was a lil too wild Bro went off too hard ..
Half man half amazin
Raekwon type flow
"...but I borrowed from both them niggaz..."~Nas
My gun on
U couldn't touch Nas with a long stick in 96❤❤❤
Dope verse BLASTMASTER
This song is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 always had nas over Jay in my TOP 5 dead or alive and never heard it this .. About to share a few times
Pretty much the Illest lyrically. Love and respect
Nah it’s 2021 and I never heard this!!!!
My mind is gone....

Common unexpectedly going into his “Resurrection” bars on the “world is yours” instrumental 🔥🔥🔥

Peace God, 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Never heard these lyrics. 💥💥💥💥
half of the first verse was actually used for the 3rd verse of the clean version of Watch Dem N
I see why Columbia made change it, the lyrics are here are crazy but they would be hard for the average listener to keep with. Also the album version is a bit more focused subject wise.
well the track Take It In Blood was actually not finished mixing because Stretch passed away so out of respect, Nas left it unfinished mixing and it wouldnt make sense for this version to come out.
The original is more polished and [thus] overall better I feel. That said - this is crazy right here. He was in his bag definitely
Might b my favorite straight up #hiphop song ever! 🐐🥇🔥🔥🔥💯
AHAT THE FUCKK!!!!!!!! Where the fuck has this been in my life...........
