The present paper is devoted to the compressible nematic liquid crystal flow in the whole space $ \mathbb{R}^N\,(N≥ 2)$. Here we concentrate on the incompressible limit in the $ L^p$ type critical Besov spaces setting. We first establish the existence of global solutions in the framework of $ L^p$ type critical spaces provided that the initial data are close to some equilibrium states. Based on the global existence, we then consider the incompressible limit problem in the ill prepared data case. We justify the low Mach number convergence to the incompressible flow of liquid crystals in proper function spaces. In addition, the accurate converge rates are obtained.
