Update on the DJ, One Blood and Buck incident [Buck's Fucked Up]
« on: December 01, 2006, 05:34:59 AM »
Sunday's (November 26) altercation between G-Unit artist Young Buck and Atlanta's DJ Will has prompted an outraged reaction from many DJs throughout the country.

As SOHH previously reported, Atlanta's WHTA Hot 107.9 radio station has pulled all Young Buck records from their rotation following an incident at Club Nocturnal on Sunday, when Buck (born David Darnell Brown) got into a physical conflict with a DJ after he played The Game's "It's Okay (One Blood)." Now it appears that Interscope/G-Unit and the music industry as a whole may have a bigger problem, since hundreds of DJ's are currently preparing for a telephone conference that will decide what will be done in response to the incident.

"DJs are disgusted on what happened. Cats are disgusted right now, as a whole," Tony Neal, founder of the Core DJ's told SOHH exclusively. "I'm sure after hearing Game say his beef with 50 was ended on BET, that was enough to say 'alright I get to play this record whenever I want to play it.' Had it been me playing the Game record and Young Buck saying to my audience that I deal with every week, that right there is a conflict to me, " Neal continued. "I might say something back, I might say 'fuck you nigga' and play the record again."

"All that could've been avoided by not saying nothing. Or having someone at the beginning of the night, your publicist say, 'listen we'd appreciate if you don't play these records.' On our Shade 45 show they tell us upfront no D-Block, no Fat Joe, and if you can't do that you can't play your mix."

Neal's organization has over 300 members, all of whom take their motto "The Core DJs... for DJs by DJs" to heart. Although DJ Will is a member of a different DJ crew, the World Famous Superfriends, a Core DJ "All DJ" conference call is beeing held tonight (November 30) to decide the fate of Young Buck, and perhaps other "beefing rappers" who've caused problems.

"I'd be looking crazy if I didn't say anything. First you said something out of line in a man's house, then you put your hands on him. What the fuck is the next step? The only motherfucker that can stop the onslaught now is Will. Other than that, it's all out. We are all for one right now," Neal told SOHH.

Neal says Sunday evening's incident is just the latest in a string of conflicts between DJs and artists. He lists exchanges between Busta Rhymes and DJ Big Gee in the Bahamas, Fat Joe and DJ Epps in Miami and Benzino and Funkmaster Flex all as precursors to the current scandal. In this case, many DJ's are finally deciding that enough is enough.

"We aren't hurting for music to play, we'll just have to move on to something else. I'm with the DJ. The DJ is justifiable. He didn't do nothing wrong to the cat but play a fucking record. It's a fucking record man. That's it," Neal told SOHH.

While the Core DJ's will make a final decision tonight, another source told SOHH that Young Buck's actions Sunday night may result in a nationwide G-Unit boycott that can significantly harm the company. Sources at Hot 107.9 have also told SOHH that DJ Will is not speaking about the incident publicly because he may take legal action.

What a bitch Young Buck is and for that matter any rapper who intimidates or worse still assaults a DJ because of the record they are playing. Ultimately karma is also a bitch so I hope these DJ's have the courage of their convictions and say fuck buck and any other rapper that tries to lay hands on a DJ by not plaing any of their record, the message would soon be heard and understood.

Buck is threatened by Game, simple as that.

If Buck thought Game was wack, he wouldn't care if the DJ played his track - he would have laughed it off.

The fact that he got so emotional just shows that he realises the level of Game's success - as soon as the record came on, all Buck would have thought of was the fact his nemesis has a hot joint that everyone wants to hear.

I'm not hating on Buck - Chronic 2006 is one of the year's best mix CDs to me and I'll pick up his new album on drop date. But that's the way I see it.

Young Buck gave his version of the story:

 While over 200 DJs connected on Thursday night's (November 30) Core DJ conference call to form a unified response to a recent exchange between Young Buck and Atlanta's DJ Will, Buck appeared live on Nashville radio to appeal for a resolution.

As SOHH previously reported, Hot 107.9 and other Atlanta Radio One stations removed Young Buck from their rotations following an incident Sunday (November 26), when Buck challenged Hot 107.9 and BME's DJ Will for playing The Game's "It's Okay (One Blood)" at Club Nocturnal, where Buck was scheduled to perform. Immediately after reports of the incident hit the media, DJs across the country showed allegiance to their fellow DJ Will, prompting Core DJs founder Tony Neal to schedule the conference call.

213 callers tuned in to the bridge conference to talk about the controversial situation last night. The call, which lasted nearly three and a half hours, included such DJs as Tony Neal, DJ Kay Slay, DJ Clue, DJ Finesse, DJ Impact, DJ Mars, DJ Kaye Dunaway and Interscope's Adam Favors, among many others.

While Favors reminded other Core DJs that Interscope and Radio One -- along with parties associated with DJ Will -- are already in the process of hammering out a resolution, a number of DJs felt that, until a resolution is reached, Buck's records should not be played out of respect to Will.

"It could have happened to any of us," a number of smaller market DJs reminded the group throughout the call.

The call also demonstrated that many of the DJs' frustrations extends beyond the Young Buck/DJ Will incident; as the overabundance of beef in the hip-hop industry has created ongoing tension for DJs who find it precarious balancing artist's conflicts with their own autonomy. More than one caller spoke to the need to send a clear message to artists and record labels, while others made pointed remarks about the low standards in hip-hop today.

"There's no repercussions for artists," one DJ complained; while another added, "We gotta do today what we can do to prevent any more negative shit in hip-hop. We're already on the line now. DJ's are the only thing keeping this balanced because the artists are out of control."

A formal decision on the part of Core was not made during the call, however several DJs were clear that they would not be playing Buck's records until they hear of a resolution for DJ Will. Some callers pledged to remove Young Buck from their playlists for 60 days, while others were keen on avoiding playing G-Unit and/or Interscope records entirely.

As the call was being conducted, Young Buck appeared on Nashville's 101.1 The Beat Jamz's "Dolewite and Scooby Show" to give his version of the incident [here the full interview here]. According to Buck, he was onstage preparing to perform accompanied by his own DJ, Don Juan, when DJ Will dropped The Game single.

Contrary to previous reports, Buck alleges he did not take offense to "One Blood" being played, but he asked DJ Will if he was trying to be disrespectful, and if so to drop the song again, which DJ Will did. At that point the crowd at Club Nocturnal grew incensed and after a failed attempt to perform "Money In The Bank," Buck approached the DJ booth.

Feeling threatened, Young Buck admitted to grabbing DJ Will by his shirt. The DJ attempted to explain the miscommunication and Buck let him go, leaving the club with his entourage. According to Buck, at that point clubgoers from Atlanta, who were not associated with the rapper, attacked DJ Will.

Buck expressed sincere concern over the current situation, acknowledging that an ongoing problem with a radio DJ like Will could cause serious problems for his career,

"I'm a grown man so I'm trying to figure out how to resolve this, I have an album to drop in two to three months [Listen]," Buck said. "Core DJs could cause a chain reaction to other DJs not playing my record."

While at the radio station, Young Buck attempted reach out to Lil Jon, whose BME Recordings also employs DJ Will, but was forced to leave a voicemail for the Atlanta rapper.

I love Buck's music, but he is a dumbass pretty much.  He needs to start thinking before he acts, and realize he is fucking up his career.
