In this interview, Young Buck discusses the reasons behind his fallout with 50 Cent and G-Unit. He explains that the issues began when he publicly questioned why he hadn't received royalty checks despite being a millionaire, stating this happened around 2005 (0:07-0:30).

He also attributes the lack of promotion for his sophomore album, "Buck the World," to issues between 50 Cent and Sha Money, who was managing Young Buck and Banks at the time (2:13-3:11). Young Buck further elaborates that 50 Cent's disagreements with Jimmy Iovine, CEO of Interscope, also impacted G-Unit's overall album releases and promotion (3:29-4:11).

Young Buck expresses that he believes 50 Cent didn't approve of how he voiced his concerns about royalties, which ultimately led to him being "kicked out the crew" (4:16-4:37). Despite the past animosity, Young Buck is open to future collaborations with G-Unit for tours, acknowledging that fans want to see it, but emphasizes that it would require more than just his willingness (4:57-5:21). He concludes by stating he has moved past the G-Unit era and is focused on his future endeavors (5:44-6:43).

He can say whatever he wants but that phone call back in the day showed that he was just really bad with money. He kept going broke splurging money on bullshyt and had to borrow money from 50.


Not to say 50 is blameless in the fall of gunit, him trying to beef with the entire east coast hindered his artist ability to network with other artist and producers.
