Jay-Z - “If You Want It” Prod By: Ski Beatz (Unreleased)

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz never heard this 🫡

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz 🔥🔥🔥 love the Luther Vandross sample was also used on Ras Kass - Won’t Catch Me Running Remix

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz 95-96 Jay 🔥🔥🔥

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz This isn't Jay-Z

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz Feat. Tone from Original Flavor.. Listen to the Whole Joint 💯

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz Can’t believe in 2026 I’m hearing this for the first time 😳Dope! Also he obviously wrote that first verse too lol

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz Jay went in

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz 🔥

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz My first time hearing this I’m sure.

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz Ski probably either was inspired by his cousin or helped his cousin pin ✍️ that first verse! Jay Z definitely took Ski cadence and pocket for reasonable doubt which is why a lot of ppl say Jay bit Camp-Lo Flow. Common denominator in both albums.. Ski Beatz!

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz Did y’all find those Reasonable Doubt sessions that Ski said was “lost”?

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz Dope post, but gotta mention Tone Hooker — that collab was a big part of that moment.

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz I did a deep dive into Trackmasters during COVID lockdown, and I realized Hov was writing Foxy Brown lyrics, and they used the same sample for "If I..." So Hov and TM pretty much wrote to this beat twice.

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz @Skibeatz cousin!!!

@ShawnCarterShow @_HOV_DID @BookOfHova @Skibeatz This sounds like it would have made Vol. 1
