Video: Young Buck – Put Me In The Projects (Unreleased)
Here we have an unreleased Buck video directed by Jason Goldwatch back when Buck was supposed to put out a project called Billion Bucks on DECON. Shot in Buck’s projects in Nashville, using a military grade night vision rig, the video has sat unreleased since 2008.
Goldwatch on the shoot:
That afternoon we waited for the sun to set, and drove in. I remember for “public safety” there was only one street in and one street out of the housing projects. “How stupid are the city planners?” As we pulled up, Buck stopped the car and gave daps to a group of young braided up teenagers chilling at the entrance with a walkie-talkie, and by the time we arrived to the courtyards, everyone new was coming up, lighting up and stacking to my camera.
The night went pretty much with out a hitch. Minus a fight, an unreasonable gun shot, and an attempted kidnapping of myself; foiled by Buck, I got what I needed by 4 or 5AM.

That’s why I haven’t heard anything from him a while. I actually remember now.
He was a good dude. I remember when his offices was in Georges Music Room.
I miss that scene in Chicago. I need to get back into that.

Sometimes, you gotta start from the trunk to reach the roof. Just so you can put your roof in the trunk, B.

Part of what I really love about Buck is his sense of self. He was always so comfortable in who he was, no matter where he was. As am I, usually. And there lies our connection. He would school me on cleaning hollow point shells of finger prints, and I would school him on drinking orange juice and tripping on mushrooms. Both of us mutually enthralled in our opposites, but somehow sharing similar perspectives on the “living of one’s life.” One night on his jet, he played me a song called “Put Me In The Projects.” To me this song spoke of this very comfort level. Weather in a private jet with 50, or on the corner in the hood, he was always the same rad ass human being.
