50 Cent recently sat down with Cosmic Kev, where he opened up about his G-Unit crew, including Young Buck owing $200,000 in back taxes. The Queens rapper explained that he met Buck when he was still working with Juvenile, and says that the "Shorty Wanna Ride" rapper really didn't know he had to pay taxes.

"I had met him before with Juve on the bus and everything," 50 said. "And I told him I liked his music. But I didn't go further cause I felt like it'd be disrespectful to Juve. But later when I caught up with him and he was under different circumstances. Juve left him in L.A. and he had to—They had all kind of things going on because he was trying to—Juve was getting away from Baby and them by getting down with Suge. And it was just uncomfortable at one point. He had some contracts put in front of him. Instead of signing the contracts he just broke out in the middle of the night. Now when I spoke to him I'm like 'Yo, take this. I'mma work with you and learn it.' The next time he got a phone call he was getting paid. He never—In all the other situations with Cash Money days, with Juve. He was grinding and around it and working, doing little things. But he wasn't actually being paid for it...He genuinely didn't know that he had to pay the taxes."

Fif also opened up about seeing a true demand from fans for a G-Unit reunion. "I told them the best thing to happen for them is I said it couldn't happen. That's when the fans started to say 'No, that's what I want.' Because when you not saying anything about it then it's just missing from our culture. The music is not there...You can feel like they need you. They don't need none of 'em. The guy that's number one right now I feel like you need 'em. Then he disappears and it'll still be 10 in the countdown. And it's cool when you can put—When your entry means something to the culture. Where people can appreciate it cause you offer a perspective that's a real perspective. My only conflict with a lot of artists is deciphering who's telling the truth and who's not."
