Contents

Background

Its title is a play on the expression "Fuck the World". Buck the World was released on March 27, 2007.

Production was provided by Dr. Dre, Eminem, J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, Jazze Pha, Lil Jon, and Polow da Don, among others. Guest appearances included 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Chester Bennington (lead singer for the rap rock band Linkin Park), Young Jeezy, Bun B, T.I., Trick Daddy, and Lyfe Jennings among others. The first single was "I Know You Want Me", produced by Jazze Pha, who also made a guest appearance on the track. The second single was "Get Buck", produced by Polow da Don, and the third single, "U Ain't Goin' Nowhere" produced by Dr. Dre, was released on May 18, 2007.

The iTunes version of the album replaces "Lose My Mind"/"Funeral Music" with just "Funeral Music", only 3:15 in length.

Reception

The album received positive reviews from critics upon release. It currently holds a 70/100 on Metacritic.[9] XXL magazine said that Young Buck "puts the spotlight back on the Unit and fires a shot that will be heard around the world."[10] Allmusic's David Jeffries stated that "it's the release that makes him more than G-Unit's clean-up man by proving he could survive even if 50 and Shady bankrupted the corporation tomorrow."[11] Henry Adaso of About.com thought that Young Buck's "eagerness to redeem the Unit is sometimes marred by a lack of focus, as he goes from pimp-playa persona to typical tough-guy talk without catching a breath."[12] Rolling Stone's Christian Hoard wrote that "Young Buck proves that he's G-Unit's most enjoyable second banana."[13]

The song 'Push Em Back' was featured in the film Drillbit Taylor during the first day of school scene.

Sales and chart performance

Buck the World debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 with 140,000 copies sold in its first week.[14]
