How will G Unit's Record Sales be Affected by Young Buck's Departure?


G Unit has recently kicked Young Buck, the southern representative of the group, out because of a few greasy things Buck said concerning 50 Cent in some interviews. Buck was complaining about money, saying things weren't as good between himself and 50 as they used to be, and basically trying to sound like a man about it while subliminally complaining.

50 then took shots in interviews stating that Buck was out for attention and that he was like his "little brother", belittling Buck to sound like he was immature compared to the Boss man.

Remember when Game tried to get Young Buck to leave the group when Game got kicked out? Did you ever think it would come to this?

It really makes you wonder what's gonna happen, is Buck gonna reunite with Game and put together some real good music? Is Buck going back to Cash Money since he's trying to rebuild ties with Lil Wayne? Is Young Buck going to have success with the Outlawz (yes Pac's group) and his newly formed label Cashville Records?

There's a lot of question marks in Young Buck's future. I've even heard rumors that Young Buck owes 50 Cent and a bunch of other people money...that sounds like trouble especially when you lost your spot in one of the hottest rap groups in the industry right now. And 50 Cent isn't the type to show mercy and let someone back in. He did it with Game and look what happened there.

Since G Unit as a group is basically the core squad of NY rappers, we can say that G Unit is back to normal. They will do fine. BUT we must take into consideration with current record sales, East Coast rappers flop on a regular basis. New York rap isn't what hot anymore and the South is where it's at, hell, even Fat Joe moved there remember?

So now that Young Buck, arguably one of G Unit's biggest asset's is tossed out of the group, how will record sales shift for G Unit? No effect? Negatively? Will the south NOT buy G Unit cd's anymore because they aren't represented?

50 Really needs to retool G Unit outside the core group, because dudes like Spider Loc and Mazaradi Fox aren't the types of guys that can carry your label. Outside of 50, Lloyd Banks is the only spitter on that label worth mentioning. Yayo is wack, even though he's been going a little harder with the rhyming lately.

Keep an eye open for news concerning Young Buck and 50 Cent/G Unit....things can get real interesting real fast.
