Young Buck Fires Back at Fat Joe with “CAPpuccino” Diss Track
On May 28, 2018, Young Buck of G-Unit was spotted at Rockwell Miami in Miami Beach, Florida. Fast forward to 2024, and Young Buck is once again making headlines—this time in the world of diss tracks.
Young Buck recently released “CAPpuccino,” a response to Fat Joe’s claims that he and his crew once beat up Buck years ago. The track, which has caught the attention of The Joe Budden Podcast, sees Buck addressing the rumors with pointed bars and a smooth flow. Rapping over G Herbo’s viral “Went Legit” instrumental, Buck takes aim at Fat Joe and others, saying, “Everyday some new sht / These rappers need to quit teamin’ up on these podcasts makin’ these lil skits.”
In the opening verse, Young Buck humorously references Fat Joe’s weight and his public endorsement of Ozempic: “Just here to tell the truth so the fans can’t get conflicted / No hands was put on nobody even though I attempted / I don’t know if this is you Fat Joe or the Ozempic but / Speak facts when you say my name.” The song is brief, running just under three minutes, but has been well-received by fans and commentators alike, including The Joe Budden Podcast crew.
The podcast panel discussed the track’s effectiveness as a diss and praised Young Buck’s current form, also reflecting on his earlier work. They debated where the beef might go next, with Marc Lamont Hill suggesting it could escalate, while the rest of the panel doubted it would go any further. The consensus was that Fat Joe would likely respond on his podcast, Joe And Jada, and then let things rest. Joe Budden himself opined that if Fat Joe attempted to respond musically, Young Buck would likely have the upper hand.
The origins of this feud trace back to a story told by Fat Joe on his podcast, where he claimed that he and his crew confronted Young Buck after a Chicago performance during his feud with G-Unit. According to Joe, tensions escalated to the point that police had to intervene, and he alleges that Buck was “two-pieced” during the altercation. However, the podcast panel speculated that Fat Joe may have exaggerated the events.
With both rappers now trading words, fans are watching closely to see if this beef will escalate further or fade away as quickly as it appeared.
