Forking this...

G-Unit rap artist Young Buck has learned his lesson — and he'll put down the silverware when the next brawl breaks out. The rapper (real name: David Darnell Brown) copped a probation plea with the DA, which virtually cleared him in a knife attack that marred the 2004 Vibe Awards in Santa Monica. Cops originally believed Young Buck stabbed an autograph seeker who punched out Buck's mentor, Dr. Dre. But frame-by-frame video analysis showed Young Buck tried to stab the puncher with a fork — and missed. "He understands what he caused and he realizes [he] shouldn't [have] done those things. He's learned his lesson," defense lawyer Scott Leemon said. [www.pagesix.com]
