The Rehab is the fifth solo studio album and fourth independent album by rapper Young Buck. It was released on September 7, 2010.[2] [3] A remix version was released in 2019.[4]
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.[5] 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.[6] The track "Hood Documentary" is a diss track directed at 50 Cent.[7] The announcement came amidst rumors that 50 Cent had finally released Buck from his G-Unit contract.[8] 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.[9]
The Rehab debuted at number 55 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, selling over 6,400 units in its first week.[10]
"When the Rain Stops" became the first single when it was released to iTunes on May 18, 2010.[11] "Ya Betta Know It" became the second single when it was released on iTunes on June 8, 2010.[12] "Hood Documentary" is the third and final single. A music video was released for the single "When the Rain Stops".[13]
