After Young Buck was dismissed from the group, he began to slander the name “G-Unit” in numerous different ways. He released numerous tracks attacking not only the group, but their associates and, more specifically, group leader 50 Cent. 50 Cent and G-Unit also responded with many tracks, including one particular instant in which 50 Cent released a phone call he had recorded with Young Buck, which featured the Tennessee native weeping and apologizing for numerous things. After this happened, Young Buck responded, stating the call was a fake, happened one year prior to its release, and claimed that only police record phone calls.

After a lengthy battle between Young Buck and his former G-Unit comrades, the feud seemed to settle down, with Young Buck stating that he owed one more album for G-Unit Records which would be released in 2009, then titled The Rehab. In other interviews, he’s stated that he doesn’t have a problem with 50 Cent or G-Unit anymore, but is currently doing his “own thing”. He also stated that although he’s still signed to G-Unit Records, he’s trying to get out of the contract, and he’s no longer signed to Interscope.
