-offcially jacked from his website www.yungberg.net

Last night I attended his show at The Key Club in Hollywood, on the infamous Sunset Strip. Yung Berg's perfomance was just sexy, opps I mean good but some other things was going on that I didn't like. As it's name proves, The Key Club, is a club, not a clubhouse. Last night for the Yung Berg performance, you had to only be 16! I thought that was crazy. And we wonder why shows like "To Catch A Predator" exist. Where were these promoters when I was in 10th grade?? So although Yung Berg has only one single out, I swear a million and one people opened for him. I thought that was hilarious and began to question if Yung Berg was even there because it seemed like the "opening actssssss" would not stop coming out.

For Yung Berg's performance, I recorded about 13 seconds of his performance of "Sexy Lady" on my phone, but I can't upload it to my wack computer. Today and tomorrow I work practically all day so I won't get around to a friend's house to upload it until tomorrow night or Monday. :(

I was analyzing his performance, and I must say the dude has star quality, and a great stage presence. He doesn't seem like a rookie, he has a confident swagger, and has this mannish quality about him, with his little foine self and those sexy green not-to-light, not-to-dark eyes. ummph ummph ummph!! He performed about 5 or 6 songs, and from what I could digest, The Yung one may have a good album under his belt. He's from Chicago, and I love the fact that he said that because he is from Chicago he is inspired by Kanye West. Most don't want to give credit to those who came before them. He then played the opening to "Sexy Lady" and last night was the first time that I realized that he sampled Kanye's "Diamonds Are Forever" in the first 2 seconds of the track. I think the kid has star potential and I may be in line to purchase that CD of his. From my understanding, it's been a long time coming for him. I met someone earlier this year who was telling me about him before "Sexy Lady" started to blow on the West Coast airwaves. He's only 21, but about 5 years ago he was signed to DMX's(who he also gave love to during the show)Bloodline Records. 5 years is a long time, to "get on". That should be inspiring to us all that we must have patience and focus when going after our dreams and don't lose to distractions and discouragements. I know it's inspiring to me, as Berg would say, "cuz she's a go getta!"
