Before the clamoring starts that “Young Buck’s new single Ghetto Superstar is the sh*t,” please understand this is not his song.  Using production work from the Soundtrakk-produced Lupe Fiasco single, Superstar, Buck puts his own spin on what it means to be a –ghetto– superstar.  While the song title suggests a carbon copy cut of an atypical ode to the ghetto hustle, G-Unit’s Teneessee spokesman gets lyrical like Lupe and opens up about his upbringing and family life.  Though Buck can’t get the credit for originality, that belongs to the Chicagoan, he should be respected for letting down his guard and becoming a hard MC with a rarely seen softer side.

Haha, at first this sounds like a really stupid concept, but Young Buck sounds as serious as ever. I thought he was just going to spit about money, clothes, and hoes but he really proved me wrong. Nice work!

A song that is not centered around Money, Hoes, Cars, or Clothes? I LOVE IT! Thank you Buck!

Young Buck is a good MC and he is straight to the point and up in your face with his style. He doesn't have a bunch of metaphors, but just tells it how it is. For the past year or so, I would say he got weaker, but within the last 3 months, he has been making solid songs again and this is Buck back to normal now. Good job here...in rotation...

I like the hook but Buck can go way harder than this. This is real soft for Buck. I'm dissapointed.

Quit comparing him to Lupe and look at it solely based on YOUNG BUCK and his previous music. This song is awesome. Off the chains...for Buck...off da chains. He totally caught me off guard with this. He came mad real with this. Reminds me of the appeal of T.I. He gots a gangsta swagga, yet KEEPS IT REAL (and I mean the keep it real version of KEEPING IT REAL)
