He's been in the game since 91...im pretty sure he can go to any awards he pleases with out her. The only thing nikki can give Nas is the p*ssy lol. Nas doesnt need to be out there like that. He's a legend .Him with Nicki will allow him to more awards and force him to put himself back out there more. He also gives her credibility and a cosign by being with her. It's smart. Even if its not a real relationship.
