The long-standing legal battle between former G-Unit members 50 Cent and Young Buck has finally come to a head, with court documents revealing that a settlement has been reached in their bankruptcy dispute.
At the center of the case was a disputed $250,000 payment. 50 Cent claimed it was a personal loan he gave to Young Buck, while Buck maintained it was simply an advance for future music projects—or, at one point, denied receiving the money altogether. Despite Buck’s arguments, the court ultimately sided with 50.
As part of the agreement, Young Buck has agreed to pay just over $200,000—specifically, $200,006.90—toward the contested debt. The amount will reportedly come from the liquidation of Buck’s assets, which include everything from his music catalog and recording equipment to personal items like vehicles and jewelry. Altogether, those assets totaled around $1.05 million.
In addition to settling the debt, Buck has already spent roughly $445,000 fighting the case. After legal fees and payments are accounted for, he’s left with about $600,000 to divide among other creditors still seeking funds from his bankruptcy estate—50 Cent included.
While 50 Cent has yet to publicly react to the ruling, those familiar with his online persona wouldn’t be surprised if he eventually addresses it with his signature sarcasm or trolling style.
