“It’s a bidding war with a lot of different companies trying to get a piece of what I’m doing,” Young Buck told Vibe.com exclusively. “[50 Cent] wants me to build my label up to where G-Unit Records is as a company, if not surpass it.”
According to Buck, 50 is helping him find a home for Cashville Records, and once the label is established, 50 Cent will shy away from the spotlight.
right “I’m doing everything I can do to get in my position,” Buck said. “[50 Cent] will be in the background; you just won’t see him as much.”
And though 50 wants Cashville to be in close ties with G-Unit, Buck’s label may not necessarily fall under the umbrellas of G-Unit Records or even its parent label, Interscope.
“I would have named the label G-Unit South Records, but at the end of the day Interscope still maintains the brand G-Unit,” Buck said. “I wanted to bring my own brand to the table.”
Young Buck has already signed Lil’ Murder, D-Tay and Hi-C to Cashville Records. The four have also united as a group, 615, named after the area code of Buck’s hometown, Nashville, Tennessee.
As for Buck The World, Young Buck says the album will have more features than any past G-Unit release, as he recruited the likes of Young Jeezy, Snoop Dogg, Trey Songz and Jazze Pha, who produced the lead single, “If You Want Some.”
“To me, it’s a hit all around,” Buck says of the smooth single. “It’s a record that you can put in and just ride to and if you hear it come on in the club you can lose your mind and dance to.”
Buck The World is slated for a November 28 release.
