Young Buck Speaks On 50 Cent, Musical Expansion

    While the incident happened over two years ago, rapper Young Buck is still feeling the wrath of 50 Cent’s decision to kick him out of G-Unit while keeping him on the label roster.

    In an interview with the Nashville Scene, Buck broke down the motivation behind Fifty’s murky dealings. “His reaction, being so harsh, is to basically stall me out to a position where I lose everything, to where my numbers drop…[He wants] to pretty much destroy my life from a silent-sided way of doing things. That’s his angle, and my contracts allow him to be able to do that.”

    Much to his chagrin, Buck explained this same contractual stalemate is likewise preventing him from working with other major label artists such as T.I. and Lil Wayne. “The problem is, I go to be a feature on their hit record, and then they have to go to 50 Cent to clear me on the record, and he says, ‘No.’ And they’re looking like, ‘Well, damn’ — cause if it wasn’t for that I would probably be on every record that’s out right now, cause everybody and their mama reaches out and gives me support.”

    He continued, “To this day 50 Cent has not been man enough to give me a conversation face-to-face or over the phone. I did everything a man could possibly do to try to grow some type of understanding. I come from the ghetto, from the streets. So taking a legal approach about things is not my way of doing business in the beginning. If we can do business without going that route I’m always down for it.”

    Until then, the Nashville rapper confessed he will still continue to grind through mixtape releases and regional shows. When the opportunity arises though, Buck says his collaborations will not be limited to the Hip Hop arena as he plans to start working with country artists. “There is no reason for me to be born and raised where country music has such a popularity, for me not to be somewhere in that loop.”

    Buck added, “There’s something that country music can introduce to this Hip Hop world, and there is something that this Hip Hop world can introduce to country music. For a long time I was biased to a lot of things of that nature because I didn’t listen to it. I’m basically growing up and turning into a better artist and I’m trying to expand my music.”

    1. smh buck u should have not wasted that 10 mill 50 helped u make on exotic car rentals and stupid jewelry…that man paid for your taxes 2 times..pay up son..u would be a nobody if it wasn’t for fif…real talk

    2. You gettin punished for your own stupidity. 50 made you. You ought to have thought about that before goin’ against him.

    3. 50 cent doing what JAY doing to beanz and them, or worse…

      50 his lock on the game is officialy over..watch the game see a turn around especialy on the eastcoast this coming year!!

      1. not with them wack ass songs game’s been putting out lately

        sorry homie game’s run is done

        when game left the unit he had the opportunity to stand on his own and really define who game was what did he do went on a pms fit and made his whole career about 50 thats how 50 kill these niggas he do something that fucks with them mentally and then they spend their whole entire career trying to get back at him they get so distracted and sidetracked they forget about their own career thats the genius of it now we are in 2010 nobody gives a fuck about game or buck and yall may say 50 fell off but the man is still making millions overseas doing shows and making movies so if thats falling off then sign me up for it.

      2. and hiphop-2 you will sit over there and call 50 5-0 but you still have no proof that he is a snitch and let me clear up something for all you idiots

        ALL RAPPERS ARE SNITCHES

    4. Stay away from country music buck. It didnt work when snoop did it and he’s more high profile than you.

      1. if you’re refering to Country Grammar, the word “country” in the title doesn’t make it country music. Snoop actually done a track with willy nelson and it really wasnt very good. Buck was on the set of the video so maybe its influenced him. I think it would be a mistake.

      1. More like hire a lawyer to read your contract for you so you dont sign your life away for a album or major label. Fif is a petty bitch who has no relevance in hip hop other than acting like a girl.

    5. Buck is talented but stupid. Game went against 50 too. It actually help make him. You see 50 didnt do shit to Game.

      1. yeah… Dre brought Em, gave him a platform and let him do his own shit and suceeded…then Em brought in 50, gave him a platform and let him do his own shit succeeded…. and 50 took in Game and gave him a platform let him do his own shit, documentary was successful and nigga thought was bigger than g-unit….so the less said about Buck the better cause the nigga didn’t wanna work hard… just wanted to rip the profits… 50 doesn’t work that way…. game and buck are fucked!!

    6. Damn man y’all some fuckin haters! I alwayz liked Buck he deserved to shine still to this day. You blame him for want out G-Unit with all that bitch shit 50 was doin. I don’t give a fuck where you from east west down south. You ain’t real if you feelin any of that hoe shit 50 be doin. That’s why Em is fuckin with Jay and makin tracks with Wayne and shit cuz people don’t get down like that no more. I agree he pretty much played his self cuz he had to know the concequences, but i respect that man for doin what he did and bein true to how he felt. Anyway Bucks trippin about that country rap shit.

    7. 50 CENT IS THE REASON THERE IS A YOUNG BUCK. buck, dude you really fucked this one up man, you could be with banks yayo and whoo kid right now having a blast doin it big all over the world but you STABBED 50 IN THE BACK this man is grimey and is not going to make friends again thats why you cried on the phone to him because you knew you fucked with the wrong dude. i have no sympathy for buck and its too bad because he is talented and i like most of his shit but when you go against the man that made you i have no respect for that

      1. Edubb i think you hate 50 so much you secretly want him to stick his dick in your ass or something

        the evidence is out there nobody ever heard of buck until he was with 50 in the PIMP video

        just like nobody ever heard of game until he was in….. you guessed it g-unit

    8. Hey Buck..prior to joining gunit u was a nobody..Fif(Tha General) made u&gave u a real oppurtunity 2 get money and gave u a global platform…but being a dumazz typical nigga from the hood u fckd it up. He paid ur taxes 4u and did all kindz of helpful sht 4u and how u repay him?? with disrespct,diss recordz,lack of loyalty..u getting everythng u deserv bcuz u r a grimey nasty no good nigga..tha general giveth&tha general taketh away. Hey Fif..show that nigga&evry otha nigga that goes against what ya’ll built no fckn mercy.

    9. They haven’t gained anymore buzz sense the Game and Young Buck have been gone. They have fallen off hard!!!!

      Most importantly Eminem has distanced himself from 50 so he can work with other artist in the game. BECAUSE NOBODY WORKS WITH 50.

      $1,000,000 a year for security for 110,000 albums sold LOL!! I REST MY CASE

      $1,000,000 a year for security for 110,000 albums sold LOL!! I REST MY CASE

      $1,000,000 a year for security for 110,000 albums sold LOL!! I REST MY CASE

      1. they still overseas making money lloyd banks has a huge buzz right now 50 still rich doing movies how have they fell off

        maaaaaaan nobody gives a fuck about buck nobody

        and nobody gives a fuck about game when is the last time (besides you dumb muthafucks on the internet) have anybody ever said “daamn i cant wait till that new game come out” dont worry ill wait…………………………………..(crickets chirping)………………………………………………….(people snoring)……………………………………oh ok i thought so.

      2. no no no…. Em was bound to work with Fiddy on relapses 2, but because Fiddy was on tour and they couldn’t finish the project, Em brought out new material and changed the project to recovery…and they still ought to work together….and for your info: 50 is makin mo money on other things than than in music…..

    10. 50 didn’t make Young Buck. This is something that up north niggas think. Young Buck already had the South on Lock and still would today if that snitch wasn’t a hater.

      1. you a muuuuuuuuthafucking liar

        if it wasnt for 50 buck would be stuck with juvie still not being able to turn on the radio

        and how the fuck did buck have the south on lock im from tx i didnt hear about the nigga until i heard him on 50’s get rich or die tryin

        fuck you talking about old simple ass muafucka

    11. Jewish record label owners wouldn’t have done this.

      Ice Cube brought a bat to his record heads and they said fuck it lets get to the money!!!!

      Young Buck isn’t the first artist to tell his record label off you 50 cent dickriders. WATCH CADILLAC RECORDS.

    12. Buck that nigga Gay-unit(general) fif is a pussy and when you see him beat the living shit out of him because when that nigga slapped the shit out of Dr. Dre you was the only one man enough to do anything to the nigga and you took a charge for stabbing the nigga so for that alone Dr. Dre should tell fif to release you becaause him and Shady own fif and them nigga owe you that much respect. That nigga slapped the shit out of Dr. Dre and fif and Banks or em didn’t do shit but run………you was the only soldier in that camp and that’s why he’s mad you left even Punk ass GAME= change of heart(yes he was on the Show) was there when Dre got slapped………

    13. Pimp C was doing country rap so talk about what you know Up North idiots. I know what country rap tunes are and everybody loves it. You don’t know shit!!!!!

      1. HEY BROTHA SOME OF YOU COMMENTS ARE OKAY SOME OF THEM BUT DONT PUT EVERYBODY THATS FROM UP NORTH IN THE IDIOT CATEGORY THATS ALL
        AND BTW ITS LOTS OF PEOPLE UP NORTH THAT FUCKS WIT BUCK

    14. Eminem hasnt distanced himself from 50 cent they are like brothers whoever wrote that comment is dumb as hell.

      eminem is bigger and better than jay-z old ass. eminem is the elvis of rap. eminem is a living rap emcee god. aka 50 cents Boss!!

      your dumb if you think aftermath/shady is going to stop that money machine from pumping out cash.

      People must not see the video’s or not know they history. eminem and 50 both said this ” while em’s out Im going to fade into the background.. ill go overseas or something”. – 50 cent. “While 50’s out im going to lay back and I can finally put my feet up”. eminem..

      and this is the formula that has been generating money since they came on the scene..

      young buck killed himself. and that shit backfired. even game screaming G-unit… he see em overseas killing it. dr dre just waiting on 50 to be still so they can put game back in the unit and 50 dont wanna do it.

      unless eminem says so.

      thats the life of a damn near billion dollar industry.

      X

      1. what r u talking about? em is 37 jay is 40…u make it seem like em is 20 and Hov is 60..they r 3 years apart and doing major shows at baseball stadiums together…stop being a stan..u dudes is psychotic..u have wet dreams about em and shit b…relax

      ahahahahaha

    21.

      KEEP TRYIN TO GRIND BUCK BUT MISS ME WITH THAT COUNTRY RAP SHIT

      1. how in the hell was 50 on some hoe shit?

        he paid the man taxes off for him( jay wouldnt have done that, wayne wouldnt have done that, no ceo on this planet would have done that)

        he gave buck an opportunity to go on tour and make money what did buck do he would rather go hang out with jeezy

        and buck was the one who went off and said fuck g-unit

        buck has been nothing but disrepectful so what would you do? i would leave his bitch ass hanging too until he came correct and apologized for all the bullshit he did

      2. straight up lol ur comment was so stupid seriously…the guy chose to go hang out wit jeezy when they were finishing the gunit album and buck knew he was on thin ice i would of kicked him out too he put himself before the group plain and simple

      3. CLIPZO – HONESTLY I COULD GIVE A FUCK LESS ABOUT YOUR OPINION BECAUSE THE FACT REMAINS 50 IS BITCH AND BUCK DID THE RIGHT THING BY SAYING FUCK G-UNIT JUST LIKE I WOULD SAY FUCK G-UNIT AND FUCK YOU TOO

        smoothdude2002- I KNOW 50 HELPED BUCK AND IF YOU CAN READ I MENTIONED THAT THE FACT REMAINS THOUGH THAT 50 IS A BITCH AND BUCK DONT HAVE TO KISS 50’S BITCH ASS OR YOURS

      4. “Nigga don’t act like a bitch”

        – E40 ft 50 Cent & Too Short.

        Title says it all… Bitch!

        I was down with Buck, but fuck his disloyal emo crying ass.. he tried to step on 50’s toes and got crushed. You reap what you sew muthafucka.

    22. Hahaha man poor buck. I know he kinda fucked himself but fif doesnt have to be such an asshole about it. I used to love G unit before they imploded. But whatever, these dudes rich as hell and fuck more in a week they i could in a year lol

    23. Pimp C was doing country rap so talk about what you know Up North idiots. I know what country rap tunes are and everybody loves it. You don’t know shit!!!!!

      Pimp C started country rap tunes and country rap music people

    24. 50 won’t let em go b/c he knows that Buck will sell more records than him!! Why else would he be holding on to that contract??? And all you duche bags out there talking bout the expansion of country and rap being a bad idea will be the same dick suckas that’ll be coppin it once he releases the shit!!!! Fuck 50!! Holla CASHVILLE LET EM KNOW WHERE I’M FROM!!!!

    25. YOUNG BUCK should have played ball. i agree with 50 CENT’s antics. fuck people, man. most are disloyal!

    26. 50 and his fans are a buch of crabs. since when is it cool to stop another man from eating. buck has talent period. like he said half the industry is down wit him and he could be on tv with them hits. yet you guys say he washed up and done.

      and all that loyalty bullshit and don’t bite the hand that feed you shit, this is the entertainment industry people are just trying to earn a dollar. 50’s fans are just as foul as he is.

      since game left the unit he ain’t do nothing but stay winning, basically his sitution was that he didnt need somebody else holdin his hand and he did it himself. but these niggas are so stupid and blind they still hung up over the fact 50 ousted from the group and just like 50 they still shittin on him. rap is so powerful it can really influence you and all yall just looking like 50 sons. you just foul and crabby as he is.

      AYE AND DX NEED TO STOP CENSORING MY SHIT

      1. i agree cuz. I do think 50 had a right to kick him out da group, but keepin him from makin music and eatin is juss selfish. das a bitch move

      2. i guess you would have to put yourself in 50’s shoes , if you took a dude who was down with cash money ( but no one knew about it ) cause basically you was just a tag along on the tour bus and then you make this dude over 6 million and this dumb dude goes and spends it on bullshit and now wants to shit on you and says he wants to see you dead …fuck that …young buck has to be the dumbest nigga in the world , you never shit on the hand that feeds you ..nobody checking for young buck anymore , he should just get a regular job cause he’ll never make another album

    27. Buck dug his on grave. i dont blame 50 for stallin him out an none of yall could say u wouldnt do the same thing if a person was dissin u on tracks when he supposed ta be a part of ur crew. not to mention hangin wit your enemys. that is some hoe as shit

    28. buck screwed himself, he’s from the street,he should of known better not not to bite the hand that feed him.everybody from the street knows honesty&loyalty keeps u up,that why yayo n bank stiil getting,there loyalty to 50.

    29. 50 knows buck is an animal and is going to blow. He does not want to release him and blow up right after cuz that will make 50 look like a bitch. Its been over two years enough punishment has been done to Buck. Its time to grow up and move on.

    30. I see it both ways, yeah it is a bitch move and everything cause its not cool to stop another man from eating but at the same time, TIMES has change, people don’t battle anymore just to prove who’s the hottest between the two and who is the best in there area, back then it was more like I won, you can still eat but when ever I’m around bow down slim, you opening up for me but you can still eat, and keep it on wax, now days they battle to end careers, they take it to the streets, people are dying over this shit now, the rap game is competitive, always has been and always will be but now its to the point were people battle they want to stop you from eating, hell they want to stop you from living, they put up any and everything about you that they can find on the internet and put you on blast on the radio and all, they got people ready to take your head off if you do a show in there area, they take shit way 2 far now days, 50 is all about ending careers and taking shit to the streets and if anything BUCK should know how that dude is, Buck should not have did what he did, 50 has BUCK career in his hands, the best thing he could do is try to find away out and keep his mouth shut and keep doing what he is doing cause he always saying Money is not a problem cause he is still getting it, not like he was with 50, but he getting by, I fucks with BUCK and I bump his old and new shit but I understand why 50 is doing what he is doing cause I would do the same shit, I guess I would have to be a “Hoe ass Nigga” then LMMFAO!!!

    31. can you really believe the the things that most rappers say? buck was running around like he was tupac or some shit. all that murda murda thug shoot em up. then 50 played that conversation when you was crying on the phone. yall remember ”50 i was wrong” then the nigga turned back into tupac talking bout fuck g unit and 50. hip hop got alot of you fem boys thinking niggaz is real. today’s hiphop is like a fucking circus. soon when 50 and g unit finally fade out yall fags gonna start to hate on ross and all of 50’s ememies.

      1. versatile………i know killers who cry and people who cried so they wont kill anymore…..much love Smurf, Laron, Howard Randolph, Gene da green machine….so as u get a number i know u coming home

    32. I kinda agree with Buck. I think if he had total freedom he’d be blowing up right now. He can rap gangtsa, but he’s also catchy enough to sell records.
      “Happy New Year”, fucking great track!

    33. 50 just don’t want that nigga to Buck to get that spot light. He know if he release Buck, Buck gone go hard plain and simple!! Now that 50 done fell off and niggas aint feeln him it aint no way he bout to let a former member blow. If he could have did it to Game he would’ve. 50 on some hoe shit, plain simple!! Arrogant as East Coast niggas.. Fuck it Buck, u might have to take it to the streets, sometimes that shit is necessary especially when niggas tryn to stop u from eatn.. Just gotta be smart about it. Be silent when doing it just like 50 being silent while holdn u back!!

    34. I never gave a fuck about wack ass Young Buck or Gay-Unit, but he needs to get hung by his neck for that non-sense he said about Country music and Hip-Hop.

      WTF can Country teach me as a black man? That shis is the national “hang a nigga by his neck” music.

      These bama ass country dudes need to get some knowledge of self, and stop acting like coons and talking stupid.

      1. They can’t help it, it is dumb brothers everywhere but I swear the extent of their ignorance and the amount of dumb niggas in the south is phenomenal. It is true a lot of them n*ggas are coons, three steps from slavery. People are so surprised because they didn’t know how ignorant they were until southern rap came to the forefront and people were just amazed at their ignorance.

      2. Quit hatn on the south pussies!! Pimp C said it best on UGK last album, go listen. I don’t even live in the south no more but guess what it’s dumb niggas every where, u right about that. Of course you would single out the south as the worst but we know y u did that. Yall comments stems from jealousy, cause we took over the shit u east coast faggots started. Yall just let a bunch of dumb niggas from the south take over the shit yall started lol!! Guess u clowns on other coasts aint smart as you think you are!!! Get da fuck outta here with the jealousy..

    35. How the fuck this dumb fuck young duck gonna think he gots the right to make diss tracks n shit and all these fuckry talks: while along he knew 50 had his Career… talks about being from the streets but got no wise, streetwise

    37. Why does he need 50 to survive? Get a lawyer and arrange a money split. Oh wait. Buck’s broker than the block. What did him in was Buck the World. After that disaster, there was no more formula in place. This is why artists need their own identities before they allow someone to control their every move. It’s just not good business for Buck to have to rely on one man to get him work. Especially when that guy is one of the biggest self absorbed, paranoid stars in the music industry. He has no reason to cut him loose. Either way, Buck’s not selling, so why take the chance he gets lucky and stumbles onto a hit 50 had nothing to do with?

    38. Outta everybody frm G-Unit only dude im startin to like is The Game. Dude saying fuck all the beef shit get money, make music. 50 cent music is mad wack but he is just like Jay-z. Dnt spend 500k on fake ass chains then cry when he go broke. He a smart bussiness man.
