Relistening To Nas... Take It In Blood & The Message !!!

[@jaetee1292]

I know everyone is sayin the same thing but these are-reactions are genius cuz Nas music is not made to catch everything on first or let alone 2nd listen… too intricate. Appreciate what’s do; Salute fam 💯

[@purposepassionandlovetv863]

Especially Nas but good music period needs to be soaked in over and over again. With my old head hat on I will say that even the notion that music can be listened to and all of a sudden next week it's old is a direct result of how today's music is produced and conceived. The fact that Kendrick Lamar is receiving grief because he takes his time between albums used to be the norm but I'm a firm believer that real artist need time for life to present material and inspiration...let that man cook in peace. We will benefit because of it. This microwave society got us asking for the next album as soon as we finish the first listen " oh Yeah this a classic " type shit and ain't heard other certified classics or caught all the gems off of what they listening to. Shit its some stuff from the 80s and 90s from certain artists that I still catch stuff from time to time even if it ain't nothing but a sound or a drum kick in a certain place. Marinate on all your new to you music youngblood. That's the only way to truly appreciate it.

this is true

[@jeromesimz6271]

That was prime Nas my bro😭🔥🔥🔥🔥 That flow was as sharp as a sword. Lyrics insane.

[@danlemire7304]

IT WAS WRITTEN is my favorite Nas album. to me it's the best lyrical rap album of all time. the amount of content he put in that album he was on a whole other level. I remember having the cassette n cd of the album and inside were all the lyrics to each song and it was like reading a novel. thank you for taking me down memory lane! gotta check out Nas "Life Is What You Make It" "Wanna Play Rough" "Nazareth Savage" and for sure "Who Killed It" 🔥🔥🐐🐐

[@naziashunter5598]

Thank you bro thought I was alone when I’ve always said it was written was top lyricist album and even better than Illmatic.

FACTS

[@fletchernorwood445]

I'm a big Nas fan (been one ever since i first heard,"It ain't hard to tell" I was 16 at the time and his vocabulary took me to a parallel universe) And so of course,i love all your reaction videos!!

[@nolimitbryan3263]

The message is one of the best intros to a album ever and Nas don’t miss on dem intros😂🐐

[@casteltheghettomonk4392]

IWW PACs favorite album inspired him to do " me and my girlfriend" from I gave you power , and so many songs , he studied day and night

[@gritty25]

I like what you doing with the relistening because with Nas it’s only necessary to relisten numerous times to fully understand and grasp the lyrics

[@CommonNotCommon24-7]

Nas made Illmatic when he was 17-18yrs old. He made IWW at age 22.

[@radcliffemurphy5273]

Two of hardest songs on it was written 🔥🔥🔥✍🏿🎤

[@TranscendentAzure89]

One day you need to do Take It In Blood Part 2 just to see how almost 10 or so years later he was still on it and in some ways even exceeded Part 1. The Message is some of the smoothest delivery and the confidence levels were unreal. When you remember that most of the track was a "friendly" competitive set of jabs at **The Notorious B.I.G.** for the #1 spot in NYC at the time, you just immediately realize that son was a different breed raised in a DIFFERENT different era. I think he was about 22 when this dropped btw. Edit: Come to think of it, new suggestions are Take It In Blood Pt. 2 & The World Is Yours (Remix).

[@donjuan4216]

def "take it in Blood pt 2" hopefully the mostly DJ free version

[@sunnice4708]

I love what you doing.MOST YOUNG BULLS DONT KNOW REAL HIP HOP. SHIT FIRE RIGHT?

[@dashuntas.m4045]

[@ajmprovidence]

I agree I think this is one of his best songs of all time. I believe it's produced by large professor

[@mikeb3936]

Stretch was killed while working on the beat.

[@OrondeBranch]

He had to be 22/23 in ‘96….depending on when this dropped.

[@barrekelly]

Yea he was 22 it dropped summer ‘96 before his bday. He didn’t turn 23 until that September, like a day before pac passed 😞

[@aquemini154]

Best tracks of the album

[@ChinotheJet]

How I been listening to this album since middle school and just now learning the lyrics to a couple bars in this join

[@bernardo1080]

Yo nice react man. U should react to some AZ shit too hes sick

[@frankwhizza664]

Nas was in a different bag in 96, his hunger still wasn’t tamed, if you want more classics from it was written listen to live nigga rap & suspect so much to react of that shit.

[@parix85]

Take it in blood made Nas the chosen one in my book..

[@jamalcheema9806]

You gotta react to “got your self a gun” that shit was ahead of it time
