50 Cent Discusses More on Young Buck
New York, NY – In yet another recent news release of 50 Cent omitting more comments about his former G-Unit brethren, he states in a calm matter that Young Buck is not his enemy. We have all been aware of this ongoing escapade of both artists going back and forth at each other for quite some time now. As 50 continues to add his two cents on the former member, Buck continues to disparage 50 at concerts and on recorded tracks. This never-ending feud will continue further into G-Unit’s sophomore album as this all adds good publicity to album sales. It’s amusing, however, that their second album as a group will also feature Young Buck and his initially recorded tracks before the immediate decline and Buck’s dismissal. And yet again, 50 has spoken to MTV News concerning additional reports on Young Buck sometime last Monday.
50 told MTV News that he doesn’t want to go with Buck, as a matter of fact, he is more disappointed with Buck’s actions and behavior as of late.
“Buck is a disappointment for me. I treated him like a younger brother. He’s not a enemy now. He’s like a relative that decides to do something to you that you’re uncomfortable with, so you don’t bring him around you. I don’t view Buck as my enemy. If he feels that way about me, those are his personal feelings. I wouldn’t be surprised if he felt that [I was his enemy]. He’s like my younger brother, even if he sees me in this interview saying it to him, he won’t understand. He’ll just go on how it feels.”
He continued to further elaborate on the reasons why he personally released the taped phone conversation with Buck breaking down in tears in front him, these were his stated comments.
“I couldn’t tell you the things he told me in that conversation. You’d think I’m just being angry. [But] I play you the tape and you get it for yourself so much more vividly.”
At the same time, there were certain bloggers that didn’t seem to agree with the recorded phone conversation, some even went as far as to call it a bitch ass move.
“I didn’t know we could say ‘bitch ass’ on MTV. For them to say that, they don’t understand the dynamics of what’s going on. Ask me, do I care about a blogger? A person who has time to say that was a bitch ass move is a bitch ass nigga. I thought that was an official move. Right now I don’t wanna be disrespectful to Young Buck. But how do you respond to the disrespect he’s displaying?”
At press time, Young Buck is still under contract with G-Unit with a three album deal. There is no certainty whether or not that will even go through without spiteful retaliation.
On the real, that was a bitch ass move. Why the hell would you put somebody out like that? And f or the record, I am not a blogger, so my opinion does count. On the album issue, Buck will eventually be met with hostility when he does continue to release his album under G-Unit and Interscope. So Buck is essentially stuck under contract.
50 Claims his Next LP will Sell A Milli
New York, NY – For the past several years 50 Cent has been the reigning champ when it came to selling numerous amounts of units in opening weeks. Most recently, Lil Wayne has taken his belt and sold over a million albums in his first week. It was quite obvious that 50 wouldn’t be too pleased with the outcome of Soundscan results when it came to ‘Tha Carter III.’ Even after losing album sales battle with Chi-Town’s Kanye West, he is obviously still bitter about not reigning at the top. He recently spoke to MTV, again, and puts in his claim that his next LP, which by contract under Interscope is his last if he decides to renew with them or not, will sell over million units just like his rival, Weezy.
50’s next LP is officially entitled ‘Before I Self Destruct,’ and interestingly enough he plans on pushing forward for an early release date whether than next year. He told MTV exactly when he plans to initially release and for what reason.
“Fourth quarter, I got some music. But I’mma make music until I reach a closing date. I’mma stay creative and continue to try and progress. I want to focus on the positive, and I feel I’m one of the more vocal people in hip-hop. Even when it’s not about music, people pay attention to me, because I have something to offer. I’ll continue to create quality music at a pace they haven’t seen.”
At press time, it was initially discussed that he wanted the album to released in March of 2008; instead he started to push his project until later but rather focus more on the G-Unit sophomore LP. There have already been talks about certain producers that will grace the fourth LP, some, so far, include Swizz Beatz, Akon, Timbaland, and Rich Harrison. There is still no official word whether or not Dr. Dre or Eminem will grace the album or not, but obviously they will.
If this man sells over a Million copies of his next LP, I swear I’ll never understand the world. There is no denying that he was a great rapper, was being the operative word. Over the years, he essentially began declining. I wasn’t exactly too partial with his last LP, ‘Curtis.’ Let’s see what this album can do. I can bet you anything that when his contract is up for renewal this will eventually make headlines like crazy.
DMX: Three Strikes
Phoenix, AZ – DMX has been having a hell of a week as this will probably be third consecutive arrest as he was apprehended last Wednesday (July 2) as soon as he got off the plane in Arizona. Every time he is arrested, he makes headlines, now it became so mundane that it doesn’t even surprise the media anymore. As we are all aware, he was arrested twice in Miami, one for driving without a valid license and the other for attempting to purchase drugs from an undercover police officer.
X, whose real name is Earl Simmons, was recently arrested on a bond violation as soon as his plane touched down; apparently he failed to appear at his scheduled court hearing, failed to pay fines, and the previous charge of driving without a valid license was also a surplus, apparently all past warrants are from previous charges. Now the law is about to come down hard on him as he could possibly be serving some time in a state penitentiary as he awaits his next court scheduled date. And even after that court date edges closer he could be looking at serving more time.
This is what his attorney, Murray Richman, had to say about DMX and his situation:
“He was supposed to be in court today in Arizona, but he was picked up as soon as he arrived,” Richman said. “The arrest was a result of him being arrested in Florida. That arrest violated the strict conditions of his $7,500 bond in Arizona, which stated that he could not be arrested while on bail.”
Richman continues to add that he has a strong defense with the animal cruelty charges and is confident that when bought to court their win could be brief. However, DMX will be held in jail for the next several months.
“I believed that we had a good, viable defense in that [animal cruelty] case, but I’m sorry to say that Earl played into their hands when he got arrested for driving without a license and for being in a drug-prone area, which violated the terms of his bail. It’s very upsetting after eight years of working and trying to keep him out of trouble to have him get caught up for this nonsense. He took a situation that is a win, and we will win, and it places us in a precarious situation”
At press time, DMX was quite aware of his apprehension as soon as his plane landed in Arizona, however he said he had to “take it like a man and that I can’t run forever.”
I’m tired about hearing this man’s legal woes; it annoys me that he does it on a habitual basis, adding more and more to his rap sheet. I seriously think he has serious issues and is addicted to breaking the law or addicted to apprehension, it’s crazy. I wish X all the best.
