    Young Buck is having quite a busy week releasing his second music video for the track “On Tha Way.” “On Tha Way” was produced by Bandplay and features visuals of Young Buck surrounded by peers doing his thing rapping late into the night. The track is an announcement and confirmation that as he is busy with work and filling his day with “all-day trapping, selling juices, sipping lean and selling loosies” he is surely “on tha way” and anticipating having a big year in 2015.

G-Unit’s release "The Beauty of Independence" EP had fans of Young Buck hungry for more and Young Buck is certainly delivering. The new video for “On Tha Way” saw mixed opinions from commenters on YouTube, with comments reading like “First song in a awhile that I don’t like from him. The hook is quite annoying. You can do better man” to “Young Buck is coming! Streets are in danger!!!” to “sounds like he’s been hanging out with Wacka Flocka too much.”

  • Musicians and Knives, Never A Good Combination: Assault Charges from Sid Vicious to Jay Z

    Word to the wise: If someone leaks your album early, don't attempt to murder them. It was a d--k move on their part but the court will rarely give you leniency because your victim is a tool. This was what Jay Z learned when he was convicted for stabbing Lance Rivera under the belief that the latter party had bootlegged Vol. 3...The Life and Times of S. Carter. Knives are a less popular tool for murder in the modern era but that hasn't stopped the musicians listed below.
