He should stay with Def Jam...
All three of his albums promoted under Def Jam debuted at number 1. All three were nominated for Grammy's ( three straight Best Rap Album nominations) All three were (in my opinion) promoted very well. He was shown the utmost of respect by the president of def jam last year. He still has access to any producer he wants to work with. Why move? Atlantic sucks, Sony would be more of the same, Rocnation couldn't do much more than Def Jam could. Interscope sucks.

I agree he should stay with Def Jam but they didn't show the utmost disrespect when they shut down his Lost Tapes 2.
It's too bad, at this point I wish Nas could get that same type of shyt Jay has. But he doesn't tour nearly as often and I don't know if he could sell out those same arenas. His concerts have always been better in smaller venues in my opinion anyway. Nice to see his little resurgence though.
I don't see how you are all worried about Kanye's influence on Jay, but then you want him to go executive produce a Nas album. Unless you think he's going to go back to "Be" Kanye. Nas would sound awful on a lot of those WTT type beats sans something like No Church in the Wild which I think he would rip the same way he ripped Warrior Song.

If anything, the last 6 years he's toured too much (HHID, Untitled LIG tours domestic and international, Rock the Bells every year, Damian Marley 2 year tour. Even now he's about to hit Africa next month Damian and do an Arena tour in the eary Spring). He's kinda got a situation with Guriella Union being part owner of it (The company that puts together RTB and the Paid Dues tour)
Its weird even though even though he dont sell as much, he's doing bigger venues now than in his Stillmatic/IWW days like main festival stages , Radio Must City Hall and he's finally doing his own headline sets Arenas like Wembley and the O2 in London which is pretty big since only Kanye/Jay/Rhianna/Drake and them did sets there.
Nas been touring like CRAZY since he signed to Def Jam. He basically took 2 years straight to tour domestically and internationally with Damien Marley, plus Rock The Bells, plus his recent tour with Lauryn Hill. He JUST sold out Radio City Music Hall and he headlines major arenas in Europe and abroad.
Kanye knows not to give Nas any WTT type dub step beats. The last two beats Kanye laced him with were FIRE. Nas doesn't necessarily need to be on Good Music though, it's all still Def Jam at the end of the day and Kanye has already said he'd do a Nas album at any time...
He does not sell out major arenas in Europe all the time, I remember him being as surprised as me at the love he got at the O2. That was a good look. I'm surprised, that he toured as much as you said though, all I remember is Rock the Bells. Radio City Musical Hall is JUST now. I'm talking about the 4 years I was in college, and all I really recall was Rock the Bells and one time at a smaller venue. I suppose he just may not come my way.
