"Take It or Squeeze It" is a 2001 album by hip hop duo The Beatnuts. It was the first Beatnuts album released after Loud Records finished their merger with Relativity Records. It was critically well-received, but lacked commercial success. Reviews by "Rolling Stone" and Allmusic noted its enjoyable production,cite web|url=http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:wpfoxql0ldke|title="Take It or Squeeze It" Review|work=Allmusic|year=|month=|year=|accessdate=2008-05-16] cite web|url=http://www.rollingstone.com/reviews/album/141138/review/6067806/takeitorsqueezeit|title="Take It or Squeeze It" Review|work=Rolling Stone|year=|month=|year=|accessdate=2008-05-16] yet "Take It or Squeeze It" only reached #51 on the "Billboard" 200. It had sold 152,000 copies in the United States as of November, 2001.cite web|last=Hall|first=Rashaun|url=http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/search/google/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1099009|title=Billboard Bits: Beatnuts, Celia Cruz, AOL|work=Billboard|date=2004-09-01|accessdate=2008-11-08] The album was released in conjunction with two singles, "Let's Git Doe" and the more popular "No Escapin' This".
