Hip-hop artist Young Buck could be about to lose one of his most valuable possessions: his name. A Tennessee court has ruled that he must liquidate his assets, including his trademarked stage persona, to settle debts of US$11 million.
That could mean having to pay whoever bought it for the right to record under his own name - or even see another musician using it. Young Buck, 30, fell out with 50 Cent, whose record label launched his career with Straight Outta Cashville.
