50 Cent To Finally Receive $250K Repayment From Young Buck
50 Cent will finally receive his money from former G-Unit rapper, Young Buck. AllHipHop reports that the Straight Outta Cashville artist is set to repay his new $250,000 debt to Fif, which he accrued after 50 gave him a loan to dig him out of a financial hole. Buck cleared the debt after selling most of his assets, including his collection of luxury cars, jewelry, and even the rights to his music catalog as a part of his bankruptcy filing.
After selling off his assets, Young Buck managed to accrue over $1 million, which he also used to pay off his $190,000 debt to the IRS. With his repayment finally sent to his former boss, the rapper, né David Darnell Brown, can finally resume his career as a recording artist and freely release music. Naturally, 50 Cent hit social media, taunting Brown, saying, “I don’t know why they make me go through this part, but I’m a need that money by Monday.” Meanwhile, Buck seemingly responded with post of his own, declaring long-awaited freedom. “#Unbothered FrFr Ayeeeeee….. Im A FREE AGENT!! I WON?? Stay Tuned…,” he typed on IG.
Buck previously addressed how he wound up in debt with Fif and what could happen if he ever paid off his outstanding balance during interviews in 2022 and 2024 with the It’s Tricky with Raquel Harper podcast and The Ed Clay Show, respectively.
“Once he stopped me from being able to make money, I filed another bankruptcy,” he told Raquel Harper back in 2022. “They stopped him from being able to cease-and-desist in regards to me being able to, you know… I included what he claimed that I owed him in the bankruptcy to be able to say, ‘Well hey, if you’re owed this and present whatever receipts or whatever… You will be paid type of situation.’ But that was the only way I was able to go forward with working, so.”
“Could I come back to G-Unit and tour and get money together? Yeah. I’m open to that,” he said during an appearance on The Ed Clay Show earlier this year. “In regards to me signing to the label and stuff like that, I think that’s a little bit far-fetched right now.”
