50 Cent recently made and appearance on Kay Slay's Streetsweeper Radio on Sirius Shade 45 and spoke on Young Buck's apparent absence from the latest G-Unit mixtape.

Earlier this week, G-Unit dropped a new mixtape entitled "Return of the Bodysnatchers Vol. 1," which is also available for download on 50's website Thisis50.com. While Tony Yayo and Lloyd Banks were alongside 50 Cent on the mixtape cover, G-Unit affiliate Young Buck was nowhere to be seen.

Buck's absence from the mixtape and a lot of of the mixtape songs only fueled rumors of agitation brewing amid the Cashville representer, but 50 rebutted those claims.  "It looks crazy because he just ain't there, then you come back and see the tape and he ain't there, but it's not what people think it is," 50 told Kay Slay.

According to 50, scheduling conflicts is the cause for both Buck's absence from the G-Unit and the "Return of the Bodysnatchers Vol.1" mixtape. "It felt like there was nothing out there, so we went in and recorded it in one weekend, the 'Return of the Bodysnatchers,'" 50 explained. "There's been a lot of speculation because Buck is just on that one joint, that wasn't recorded during the process of making this tape, that joint was something we did awhile back."

"During the actual international tour, Buck was scheduled to go on the 'Young Rich Tour' - the tour Sha Money was putting together for him and Rich Boy - and I didn't know that didn't actually materialize while I was overseas," he added. "[And] that's why they didn't see Buck overseas with us. He was in Nashville while we was in New York the weekend we decided to put the tape together."

Buck reacted to his exclusion from the mixtape and all-embracing bout during a Super Bowl visit to Phoenix, Arizona radio base Power 98.3, addressing the distance between him and G-Unit. It makes me feel like 'What's going on?' When you see a video, everybody's there, and no Buck," he said. "Or you see your man moving overseas on tour with the camp, G-Unit. Or you go to ThisIs50.com and you see G-Unit pictures that's there without Buck's face. And then there's no communication, so I don't really understand why a lot of things is what it is. I don't have time to figure out why. So I'm just moving on, getting my money, man. With all respect to 50 Cent, 50 Cent put me in the position I'm in right now to give my music to the world."

Buck's appearance at a Lil' Wayne concert in Chattanooga, Tennessee led to rumors about Buck's jump from G-Unit to re-join Cash Money Records, but reps for Buck acknowledged that the rumors are false and he is still with G-Unit.
