Man.. 250,000 for a catalogue is bonkers. Like thats all? Rappers got single songs worth more than that. He cant get a label to pay off the debt and sign him? My god...
These songs already had their run. They're not earning any more money now. When's' the last time you play a Buck record? He probably gets thousands of spins but that translates to like a $2 check.

:mjlol: That's going overboard, Buck dropped some good music for a few years. He's just not being checked for after the whole Tranny incident.















Chingy have bigger records that streams more and make more money. That the only thing that matters when selling a catalog. Young bucks don’t really have big songs like that to demand anything more than 250k.

Chingy has like 3 hit records or something. He's a parody rapper.

But those records are bigger than young Buck whole catalog. He still can tour off of those records. Chingy was on that tour with bow and Omarion a few years back. The point is his catalog makes more money than buck’s.

Chingy hasn't been on bigger records than Stay Fly. Even Money In The Bank who is Scrappy's record was bigger than most of Chingy's stuff. Chingy never had a Gangsta Grillz. Nobody cares about that dude's music. He also never had Dr. Dre producing for him.

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
50 is doing illegal tactics. You cant stop a musician from recording and turning in projects. No court would allow that
There’s a term called “shelved” in the music industry. They certainly can deny your album submission or artists could turn in an album a week and be out their deal whenever they felt like it.

And even after the time limit (usually 7-10 years) the contract is ended. But you don’t get the masters or rights back.

What buck is selling is his publishing in order to pay to get out the deal

The really sad part is that Buck put out solid projects and the music is still good. His burned bridges, blackballing by 50 and he heaux rumors have ruined his career. I still listen to his 10 Bullets/Bricks/Pints series,that was a great run. His G A.S vol 1 with City Paper also a solid project. I think if he can get away from 50 cobra clutching his output and resources,he can eat off his music.

Stay fly is not a young buck record nor is money in the bank. Chingy song right thurr is almost at 200 million streams on Spotify. Right thurr is a bigger record than stay fly, which is a three six mafia record.

The shyt is just ridiculous after I went on youtube to get more info on this.

So basically Buck went through what Game went through.

50 created all these industry beefs and expected everyone to accept the beef too.

Buck said it started with Sha Money XL who Buck became extra cool with. Buck was the best man for Sha Money wedding, 50 expected Buck to not fuhk with him no more. Thats just ridiculous.


He also said he had no reason to not like the Lox, Fat Joe, Dipset and whoever else... 50 hated that

This is sad.

Said this before:

50 don’t even want the money he just wants to see Buck ruined, getting any $ is just a bonus but not his primary motivation.

Because if he did actually genuinely have interest in buck paying him back, he wouldn’t be sending cease and desists to get his music pulled.

And would work with Buck to release projects etc to actually generate some income…

And when I say work with I don’t mean directly, he could easily have someone mediate.

Is Buck gonna suddenly become this mega bucks generating artist nah? His times done but by letting him release music freely and have some kind of support system in place. You might actually have a chance of seeing some of that money returned.

Shame how two brothers it ended this way.

50 should just let buck go…Buck made a poor decision by getting involved in the reunion and resigning contracts. However it’s kinda completely understandable why he did.

Those songs were popular especially the 36 record. Right Thurr might be Chingy’s biggest record. But then again Buck had a longer career than him. He’s still making music an has newer stuff out.

yeah but they made up after though, the shyt was when he tried to sue 50 this last time because those fugazi lawyers got in his head.

That set the foundation though. They “made up” for business reasons. The relationship became a transaction at that point
