Contents

Background

Originally intended to be his third studio album, its release was promised since early 2008, but was repeatedly pushed back due to Young Buck's problems with G-Unit and 50 Cent. [7] At one point, Buck made an exaggerated claim when he said that The Rehab will sell a million copies in his first week to buy himself out of his contract with G-Unit Records. [8] The track "Hood Documentary" is a diss track directed at 50 Cent. [9] The announcement came amidst rumors that 50 Cent had finally released Buck from his G-Unit contract. [10] On September 13, 2010 an interview with Shade 45 radio host Angela Yee, 50 Cent stated that Young Buck is still signed to G-Unit Records. [11]

Commercial performance

The Rehab debuted at number 55 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, selling over 6,400 units in its first week. [12]
