Young Buck is selling his entire catalog to pay debts to 50 Cent

The music catalog of David Darnell Brown, popularly known by his stage name Young Buck, is heading to the auction block to pay debts to his creditors and that includes his former G-Unit mate, 50 Cent.

AllHipHop.com can confirm that the catalog, comprised of performance royalties, mechanical royalties, publishing royalties, and song copyrights, was valued at over $700,000 by SongVest, a brokerage firm specializing in selling music royalties.

Trustee Erica R. Johnson believes that the catalog sale will generate sufficient funds to pay off all creditors, including 50 Cent, to whom Young Buck reportedly owes $250,000.

As part of the plan, SongVest will be engaged to facilitate the sale to a private network of approximately thirty investors.

It seems Young Buck is not worried about it. Yesterday, he put up a story on Instagram, saying he’s richer than ever and announced future plan with former Eminem’s Shady Records artist, Yelawolf.

“Real TRUE FRIENDS Are Really Rare. I Have A Lot Of Associates… But Only A Few TRUE FRIENDS!! Today I’m Giving My Brother/Real Friend @yelawolf His Flowers!! Thanks For EVERYTHING‼️ You Have Motivated Me To Keep Going No Matter What I’m Going Thru…Or Been Thru!! And I Can Honestly Say… THE BEST IS YET TO COME FROM BOTH OF US!!! Now Stay Tuned.‼️‼️‼️‼️ – he wrote on Instagram.

Conway The Machine motivates himself with 50 Cent song to walk on broken leg & 50 Cent responded

Conway The Machine has recently announced that he would have to cancel his upcoming tour shows and postpone it to different dates due to a severe leg injury. Of course, messages of support, sympathy, and well-wishes poured in from fans and industry peers alike.

Conway shared a video of him starting to walk with his broken leg in the hospital and put on a song from another New York legend as its background music.

Furthermore, the track in question was none other than 50 Cent’s album cut “Gotta Make It To Heaven” from his 2003 classic Get Rich Or Die Tryin’. Given the song’s inspirational lyrics and thematic focus, it’s no wonder that it would inspire Conway The Machine to get better every day.

“I gotta make it to Heaven for going through Hell/ I gotta make it to Heaven, I hope I make it to Heaven,” 50 Cent raps over the infectious beat, speaking to Conway’s desire to overcome going through the “hell” of breaking his leg and dislocating his knee.

Check out the video below:

50 Cent responded Conway The Machine on Instagram to motivate him even more. The former G-Unit general posted the screenshot of HipHopDX article and in the caption he wrote: “That boy tuff he will be back on his feet in no time. @whoisconway let’s go, every set back is for the get back.”

50 Cent reacts to ex Chelsea Handler joking about anal sex & his penis size

50 Cent has recently shared his reaction to being mentioned in a seemingly flattering manner by Chelsea Handler as part of a comedy bit discussing anal intercourse.

Couple of days ago Fiddy, who dated Handler many years ago, shared a clip of one of the multi-hyphenate’s stand-up comedy sets, in which she attempts to destigmatize anal sex by extolling its joys and pleasures.

“Anal sex is not just for homosexual men anymore, okay? Ladies and gentlemen, it’s trending. And don’t knock it until you try it. You might f–king like it. It’s a big pill to swallow in the beginning but when you warm up to the idea, and you pick the right candidate, you know…small or medium, you’re not going to do that with, like, 50 Cent. You want to pick the right candidate.” Chelsea Handler said.

In the caption of his Instagram post, Fif appeared to enjoy Handler’s reference to him, as he praised the 48-year-old’s sense of humor. “Yo she is so crazy, @chelseahandler is hand down the funniest,” he wrote, adding an “LOL” and plugging his Branson Cognac and Le Chemin du Roi brands.

New Music Video: Eladio Carrión – “Si Salimos” ft. 50 Cent

Eladio Carrión, an American rapper and singer of Latin trap and reggaeton, has now released another catchy new song and music video, titled “Si Salimos” featuring 50 Cent.

The song “Si Salimos” is from his most recent album, “3MEN2 KBRN,” which has over 18 other standout tracks. Additionally, this eye-catching blockbuster has an incredible beat that will keep you fascinated for a while.

This marks first song of 50 Cent since last year’s “Is This Love” song with Eminem, produced by Dr. Dre, Trevor Lawrence Jr. and Mark Batson. The song is an unreleased track from 2009, most likely recorded for Relapse: Refill or Relapse 2 album, yet was kept in the vault due to the negative reviews from critics. This track is one of two recorded by the duo in 2009, with the other, “Psycho”, being put on 50’s Before I Self Destruct project.

Like “Jimmy, Brian and Mike,” the track contains re-recorded vocals by both Eminem and 50 Cent and it is included in the greatest hits album “Curtain Call 2.”

You can watch the music video of “Si Salimos” below:

50 Cent says he got something planned with Eminem

50 Cent is giving his classic debut album “Get Rich or Die Tryin'” a tour encore.

The Grammy-winning hip-hop legend announced a 20th-anniversary tour, The Final Lap, to celebrate his Shady Records debut studio album. Another hip-hop icon Busta Rhymes is joining him for all 90 days and Jeremih is coming along for the North American stops.

50 Cent helped define an era of hip-hop with his 2003 album that included mega hits like “In Da Club,” “21 Questions,” and “Many Men (Wish Death).” Several of the songs referenced the moment he was shot nine times in 2000 as well as various happenings from street life in the Jamaica neighborhood of Queens, New York.

Eminem and Dr. Dre were heavily involved in the making of the album, as well as in Fiddy’s entire career. Most recently Em and Fifty teamed up to perform at 2022 Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show along with Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, Mary J. Blige and Anderson .Paak.

It appears, 50 and Em have something planned again. In the recent interview with USA TODAY, 50 Cent says Eminem is still his dream collaboration even though the two jumped on a track many times.

Interviewer: Who is your dream male collaborator?
50 Cent: Elon Musk.

Interviewer: I mean in music.
50 Cent: I’d do something with Eminem again. We’ll do something again at some point.

Interviewer: Who is your dream female collaborator?
50 Cent: Nicki Minaj. She’s on fire. She’s still right there.

50 Cent teases “Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ 2”

It has been twenty years since 50 Cent made his major label debut with a classic Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ album.  Although Fiddy is currently far more involved in his TV efforts than music, he’s previously hinted at making a return to the booth.

It looks he might actually be coming through with new music sooner than we thought, now that he has entirely cleared his Instagram page. Later Fif shared a single post with a 24-hour countdown, captioning the post, “20 years later.” Unfortunately, the New York legend did not provide much else besides that but we are certainly hoping it is a sign that he has new music on the way.

50 Cent has teased new music since the beginning of the year. In January, he confirmed that he reunited with Dr. Dre for his upcoming music efforts. He explained Eminem reached out to him to confirm that the NWA producer was ready to cook up. “I got a text from [Eminem] that he had already spoke to Dre, and that Dre is in there and he got some crazy stuff for me to go hear,” he said. “This is my process: I’ll go make something, what I can find, the best music that I can put my hands on. And when I feel real good about it, I bring it to put pressure on Dre to offer me something.”

Kevin Durant shares his thoughts on potential 50 Cent & Lil Wayne Verzuz battle

If 50 Cent ever made the decision to enter the Verzuz ring and compete against Lil Wayne, Kevin Durant has made up his mind that he will support 50 Cent.

The NBA star has recently sat down for new episode of The ETCs where he and co-host Eddie Gonzalez discussed the potential Verzuz battle, and Durant has 50 Cent reigning victorious.

“I would not say Fifty is going to flat-out wash Wayne. I will not say that out of respect for Wayne. But it is not going to be a clear-cut win for Wayne against 50 Cent. And these records that he has from ’02 to, let’s say, ’07.” said Durant.

Then he continues: “Fifty is — he’s one of the greatest — that five-or six-year period for G-Unit, and Fifty was incredible. It is like one of the best runs of all time in Hip-Hop. A lot of people said that Wayne would just wash 50. And we definitely disagreed on that.”

“And he still a monster. A lot of s–t and he has had a 20-year run based off of what he created back then and saw many avenues that he built off of that run and had so many pivots in his career. 50 is one of the greatest.” Kevin Durant added.

Eladio Carrión talks how Eminem influenced him as a writer

Eladio Carrión, rapper and singer of Latin trap and reggaeton, has recently dropped by the neighborhood to speak with Big Boy about working with 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, Bad Bunny, and Future on his new album 3MEN2 KBRN.

He also talked his professional swimming career, switching from comedy to music, losing his dog, and his upcoming performance at Coachella.

At one point of the interview, Eladio Carrión spoke how Eminem and 50 Cent influenced his writing style: “I have always loved to rhyme. I am big Eminem fan and Lil Wayne and 50 Cent. So, I always had that curiosity for clever wordplay…I always thought, like Eminem, how can I do music like him and make people feel it. Em, 50, Wayne showed me how to write rap. And Kanye West was the first rapper who made me feel the beat.”

This is not the first time Eladio Carrión gave Eminem his flowers. Last year, during the conversation with XXL magazine, the Puerto Rican artist revealed that Nas and Slim Shady introduced him to rap: “When I was like, in the first grade, I’d be hearing 50 Cent’s Get Rich or Die Tryin’, Nas, Eminem’s Curtain Call. Jay-Z, Big L. I was introduced to hip-hop very early. Busta Rhymes, Missy Elliott, all of that. my favorite rappers like Big Sean, Lil Wayne, Eminem, 50, each of those rappers taught me something. Like 50 Cent, he taught me the importance of feeling sure about yourself when you rap. Eminem taught me about deliveries and wordplay. Big Sean also, his delivery and wordplay is crazy. Lil Wayne, you don’t have to wait every four bars to do a punch line. You could do a punch line every bar. Every bar there could be a punch line.”

Charlamagne, Ebro, Young Guru, Lowkey & more share their thoughts on 50 Cent VS Lil Wayne Verzuz battle

Ebro Darden has recently said that 50 Cent would “wash” Lil Wayne in a Verzuz battle, causing an uproar on social media in the process. Check out how hip-hop world responded to 50 Cent Vs Lil Wayne Verzuz battle.

Ebro Darden

“What Jadakiss did to Dipset…Is what 50 will do to Wayne… @yourboyeddie wasn’t outside in the mid-2000s.”

Eddie Francis

“I seen Ebro’s opinion and I was like, ‘What?!’ In what world? I’m not even here to say 50 could beat Lil Wayne, but to say that 50 would wash Lil Wayne? In no dimension, in no world, in no — just no! That would not happen.”

Lowkey

“I’ma say something and I’ma stand on it: Wayne don’t have a Get Rich or Die Tryin, We’re talking about a Verzuz battle, right? We’re not talking about what we like. We’re not talking about what we grew up on. We’re not talking about what we listen to when we’re in the kitchen cooking or driving down whatever highway in L.A. that you drive down. We’re talking about in a crowd. We’re talking about 50 Cent. This man is a mainstream monster; Wayne is a cultural mainstream monster. But when we talk about these hits? When we talk about these bodies of work? When we talk about these smashes? I ain’t saying 50’s gonna wash Wayne, but if Wayne is not sequenced right and is not positioned correctly, that could be a very long f–king night for Dwayne Carter. No disrespect to Wayne”

Charlamagne Tha God

“What is Lowkey talking about? Yes, Lil Wayne does not have Get Rich but he has a massive amounts of hits. I love 50 Cent but one album can not win the Verzuz. 50 Cent is gonna need more than just Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ to go against one of the top 5, potentially top 3 greatest rappers of all time. Lil Wayne could literally start in 1998 and come up all the way up to Young Money era. We talking +25 years. You will catch hell going against Lil Wayne in Verzuz 20 songs songs against 20 songs.”

Young Guru

“For the record, y’all are crazy. Wayne would wash 50. Period.”

Ja Rule reacts to Melle Mel saying Ja copied 50 Cent

50 Cent and Ja Rule’s feud was probably one of Hip Hop’s most infamous beefs, and Melle Mel thinks things may have gone differently for Ja Rule if he did not copy Fiddy’s gangsta style.

In a recent interview with The Art of Dialogue, the legendary rapper from Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five shared his thoughts on why rappers trying to be “hard” is resulting in the destruction of the genre itself.

“A lot of rappers could be better rappers if they stopped rapping like everybody else. What is it that you need to say? You could be the ni–a that made a song about a pool party, but you f–ked around and listened to Meek Mill and went and you f–ked around and did some dumb s–t. It’s just like when 50 Cent was doing this s–t and then when Ja Rule and that was probably one of his last big records.” said Melle Mel.

Then he continued: “If he woulda just made that record a pure New York record, it would have been a way bigger record. But he went the route of trying to sound hard because 50 Cent sound hard. And it was still a good record but I’m just saying, if he woulda just made it a pure New York record like how JAY-Z did with his New York record. See what I’m saying? If he woulda went along the same lines as that. So the point I am saying is that consciousness does have its place in Hip-Hop, but everybody is too scared about not being hard. And that’s the destruction of the whole game.”

In a recently release footage from TMZ, Ja literally laughs out loud at Mel’s comments and says: “Mel has earned the right to say whatever he wants but me copying Fifty is the funniest s–t I’ve ever because Fifty copied me. I was his blueprint. Other than that, my New York record was huge. One of the biggest New York records to date. Empire State of Mind is also huge but they are different. Mine’s a street anthem and Empire State Of Mind is a big commercial record with Alicia Key and Jay-Z.”

50 Cent gets trolled by his fiancé on Instagram

50 Cent might be a top-tier trolling king but it looks like he met his match and its his girlfriend, Cuban Link. Couple of days ago, Link whose real name is Jamira Haines flaunted her figure on Instagram, posting a series of photos showing her stepping out in a scantily-clad outfit.

“She my lil vibe, she my lil ah ah ah,” the Instagram influencer and fitness trainer captioned her post, referencing lines from Nicki Minaj’s latest single, titled “Red Ruby Da Sleeze.”

Fif commented on the post: “[big eyes emoji] what is you doing out side the house? [raised eyebrow emoji] I am telling Lucy.”

Cuban Link later posted a video on Instagram showing Fiddy writing that very comment while watching Monday night’s Houston Rockets vs. Boston Celtics game from his luxury suite inside the Toyota Center: “Caught him commenting on my post !! Please look at his face , Y’all he be dead serious lmaooooooo,” Link joked in the caption.
