Nas Being Dropped By Def Jam?

Nas is reportedly set to be dumped by his record label Def Jam because of the ongoing rift over the title of his upcoming album.
The rapper has caused a storm of controversy over recent months after he announced his impending album will titled ‘Nigga’, before changing it to ‘Nigger.’
According to MediaTakeOut.com, Nas’ decision not to budge on the title has caused massive friction between the two parties...
The site quotes a source who says: “There is no way that we can put out an album with that title. Many retailers have already told us - flat out - that they won't carry (an album with that title).
Nas' last album sold pretty well, but not well enough for the headache he's causing the label."
They continued: "If Nas doesn't change his mind, he'll be dropped. And he doesn't have to much time to come to that realization."
