That Nas and Murder Inc. link-up... dude seemed all in until right after "the Pledge". About two months tops.

Nas would have blown his career signing with them...

I give Nas credit.. dude can analyze the shyt out of situations. He saw through Irv dumb ass. Irv was just mad at Jay.

This was more so a power play as Irv needed someone strong in their corner against 50 Cent. Nas had a history with 50 and 50 was mad at Nas for the J. Lo collabo because he was removed. So Irv looked at it as signing Nas would've been a power move against 50. Eminem and Dre had too much respect to go at Nas. Murder Inc lost the streets with all those R&B records and Nas would've given them huge street credibility.

Thing is, Nas would've gained nothing from the deal.
