50 Cent Says Young Buck's Not His Enemy

You've heard all the back and forth, and the diss tracks from Young Buck and his new collaborations with The Game. Despite it all, 50 Cent doesn't think of his former comrade an enemy.

Yea, he leaked a taped phone conversation of Young Buck crying, but 50 explains it was only in response to Buck screaming "F*** G-Unit" on stage at a recent show, even though it's the brand that made him.

"Buck is a disappointment for me," 50 told MTV on Monday (June 30). "I treated him like a younger brother. ... He's not a enemy now. He's like a relative that decides to do something to you that you're uncomfortable with, so you don't bring him around you. I don't view Buck as my enemy. If he feels that way about me, those are his personal feelings.

And if Buck were to consider 50 an enemy, he says it wouldn't surprise him.

"I wouldn't be surprised if he felt that [I was his enemy]," he continued. "He's like my younger brother -- even if he sees me in this interview saying it to him -- he won't understand. He'll just go on how it feels."

The recorded conversation, 50 explains that what was said in that phone call, he wouldn't have been able to explain, and if he did, no one would believe him.

"I couldn't tell you the things he told me in that conversation," 50 said, justifying his action. "You'd think I'm just being angry. [But] I play you the tape and you get it for yourself so much more vividly."

50 goes on to say he was actually on camera when Young Buck called him, and they just kept rolling. But, he says recording calls is not a regular habit for him.

Despite 50's feelings, the beef might just keep going, if Buck has anything to do with it. He recently leaked a new diss track called "Terminate On Sight." On the track Buck says, "Ah sh**, they done kicked me out the crew, I'm cool now / Nose running, but I ain't snorted nothing / Took a sniff of myself and I smell like money." Later on, he goes at Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo by saying, "50's money ain't yours."

The taunts and disses aren't stifling 50's business practices. He told MTV that Buck is signed to G-Unit Records for three more albums.

"He'll still get his fair shot at releasing his album," 50 insisted.
