Young Buck: G-Unit
built 656 days ago
Young Buck released a song which is aimed at The Game called "Teach 'Em Bout Playin'", featuring C-Bo. In the song, Young Buck talks about his loyalty to 50 Cent and G-Unit and how The Game never showed his loyalty when he was part of G-Unit. He goes on to say how "Hell will freeze before the G-Unit splits up".

On November 16, 2004, Santa Monica police released a warrant for Young Buck’s arrest in relation to a stabbing incident at the 2004 Vibe Awards. Dr. Dre was assaulted by Jimmy James Johnson, and Buck jumped in to support Dre. Videos showed Buck lunging at Johnson with a knife in his hand. Buck was charged with assault with a deadly weapon. He surrendered to police on November 20. It was believed that he had stabbed Jimmy James with a knife, but DNA evidence and photographs showed that the knife did not belong to the G-Unit rapper.

Young Buck's 2004 debut Straight Outta Ca$hville did reasonably well as far as G-Unit side projects are concerned, but that's been going on three years ago and G-Unit has been in a bit of a slump lately. Can Young Buck buck the trend? No pun intended.

G-Unit is known of the world over, and as soon as Yayo got locked up, the world then heard of Young Buck. G-Unit's southern frontman has made waves since "Straight Out Of Cashville" came out, late 2003. Being allegedly affiliated with stabbing someone at an award show, and upholding the image he talks about secured Young Buck quite the steady following. Many who criticize G-Unit still seem to respect him.

It's been just about 3 years since Young Bucks debut "Straight Outta Cashville", and ALOT has changed. The two biggest changes have been the landscape of hip hop album sales, and the credibility and relevance of G-Unit. 3 years ago hip hop was still selling in huge numbers, and G-Unit had a stranglehold on the industry.
