Young Buck is an American rapper and former member of the hip hop groups UTP Playas and G-Unit, hailing from Nashville, Tennessee. Born David Darnell Brown on March 15, 1981, he embarked on his music career in the 1990s and gained major recognition after joining 50 Cent's G-Unit collective in the early 2000s. Young Buck played a significant role in the success of G-Unit's debut album, "Beg for Mercy," in 2003, further establishing his presence in the rap scene. His own debut album, "Straight Outta Cashville," released in 2004, received critical acclaim and solidified him as a solo artist.

Over the years, Young Buck has encountered various legal issues and conflicts, including a highly-publicized fallout with 50 Cent and G-Unit, but he has continued to release music and maintain relevance in the hip-hop community. His discography includes several studio albums, mixtapes, and collaborations with other artists. Some of his more recent works include "10 Toes Down," which showcases his gritty storytelling and street-influenced style, and "The Rehab" series, revealing his ability to adapt to the evolving rap scene. Despite the turmoil and setbacks, Young Buck has remained an influential figure for many up-and-coming Southern rappers, carving out a unique niche for himself in the rap industry.
