Although G-Unit's Young Buck has been quiet as of late, he's back and ready to get his Cashville Records imprint off the ground. But, while he preps new projects and his third solo album, Buck found time to address a question on a lot of fans' minds -- what's the deal with him and 50 Cent?

In a recent interview with Sohh.com, Young Buck explained why it looks as though he and his G-Unit boss are distant, but insisted that there is no beef.

"A lot of people want to see me succeed and that's why I created my own brand, Cashville Records," Buck told the website. "I'm just stepping up to the executive bracket. I'm still a part of G-Unit, 50 is still my boss when I'm doing G-Unit and I'm my boss over here. I'm trying to establish me and just getting to my money.

"[Me and 50] don't communicate as much as we used to, but that's cool because I'm not the type of artist that's gonna wait for the CEO to make a move for me," he continued. "I respect 50 to the utmost. Even though at times to the world it seems like 50 ain't down with me, I still stay loyal to the n**** because he put me in this position. It's just he's more focused on 50 more than anybody. Everybody wonders, what's up with Buck and Fif? He's a business man. He gets the final word and makes the [business] decisions for G-Unit. Anything outside of that, you gotta ask 50 about."

So while making clear that he's still loyal to 50, but is focused on being his own boss, Buck revealed some details about his next album, titled Product Of The South, which is coming up soon -- April 1st to be exact.

So far, the rapper revealed that artists such as Young Jeezy, Plies, Devin The Dude and Brotha Lynch Hung would make appearances, while production efforts were handled by Hi-Tek, Drumma Boy and Sha Money XL.

That's not it either. Buck also revealed that he's changed up his music somewhat, making it totally different from his past G-Unit releases.

"It's a totally new feel to the music," he explained. "I can definitely tell you it's gonna be all fresh sounds. I'm working with new producers. I wanted a separate sound and feel from G-Unit. I mean, how could it be a new label if I went with the same stuff as ya'll used to hearing from G-Unit?"

He even went as far as to say, if The Game was down for a collaboration, so would he.

"My label is Cashville, not G-Unit," said Buck. "We'll see who chooses to holler and if it's a positive move that's going to benefit the label and my artists, then we'll work it out. It's a whole new year, there's new money to go get.

"A lot of those situations [between 50 and other artists] were obviously not my situations. I'm open to those that are open to me. I ain't trippin' if [Game] ain't trippin'," he continued.

Product Of The South is slated for release April 1 through his Cashville Records imprint via Sony.
