Following the disappointing sales of Young Buck’s sophomore album, Buck The World, the Nashville-born MC spoke openly about his frustrations over the promotion of the album and the choices made for second and third singles. Now distancing himself from the project and looking towards the future, the G-Unit member has released the street-ready slash commercially-credible, New York City. Using the melody and chorus from the Phil Collins classic, In The Air Tonight, Buck pays homage to the home of Hip-Hop and those who have paved the way for the entire southern region to benefit. Anxious for more new music form the Cashville Records CEO? G-Unit’s new compilation album, Shoot To Kill, is set for release this spring.
Man, G-unit needs to get of there knees cause there blowin the game. But if you can put Phil Colins on a rap track, you get my resect. Buck dosent flow to bad, actually pretty good
Young Buck has become the more versicle member of G-Unit. This track is blazin' and I'm sure every hip-hop fan can admit to having a "heart and soul of New York citayy." The sample is nicely placed throughout and song and I'm feeling the rhythm all the to the end. NY is calling me!
Young Buck is one of the best rappers in the south PERIOD! Not many can take him lyrically in the south. His flow is always straight to the point...no beating around the bush with crazy metaphors and similes. He tells you exactly how it is and with confidence. His flow is tight as ever on this track; the chorus is always good no matter who remakes it (shout to Phil Collins and Genesis); and the beat matches perfectly! Good track!
I'm with Fresh, Buck outshines everyone else in G-Unit, just like The Game. I think a solo career will be better then rollin' with them. It worked The Game well, it should this guy.
Young Buck is my favorite from G-Unit right now (YES, I’m including 50cent, who disappointed me with Curtis! :s) Young Buck album and the other tracks that got bootlegged were better than Curtis. And this one too! He has real lyrics and regularly flows well with the beat as in this case. So I agree with the 2 comments above.
Young Buck has more talent in his pinky finger than the rest of the G-Unit crew! they have produced nothing worthy and i dont think anyone will take them seriously after their last few poor efforts!
A classy laid back track, on that OG @*#$! of course, i give Buck props, he has his mind right on his lyrics, good @*#$!, only mainstream rapper besides Lupe worth listenin to these days...
