Yung Berg was pictured above at the “Look What You Made Me” album listening session with Ray-J. Real talk those were the only “celebs” there. What a surprise. He’s a GREAT rapper! Weezy look out!
Just when you think that Yung Berg couldn’t get any less relevant, he goes and calls dark-skinned black women “dark butts.” Now we all knew that he was but a hairy mole or skin tag on the armpit of hip-hop. If we ever had any hope of giving this cat–who reminds me of Moe Scizlak of “The Simpsons”–any chance, he “deaded” his chances.

Well Yung Berg, I use brown gel to hold down my baby hair sometimes and you don’t have to date me. However, any man that looks like a cross between Launchpad McQuack from Disney’s “Duck Tales” and Howard the Duck and has the nerve to talk smack is not poppin’.
just as al sharpton and company got on don imus, they should be getting on young berg. dark butts? come on dude that’s just as ignorant as nappy headed hoes.
I will not be buying any of his music not that i have but he is like NOBODY right now…how old is he 9? Learn how to talk with all that ignorant stuff in your mouth!!!
Its rather unfortunate when obviously black men or boys denounce black women. This is what happens when black men and women denigrate darker skinned people in the presence of their children. Imus did not create this mess – we did. In the movie, South Pacific, the message is “you have to be taught to hate”. Forgot the Michael Jacksons of the world and start looking in the mirror.
come on dude u jus gettin started and now u gon go and mess it up…i liked u but not anymore…wat happened to “tha blacker the berry tha sweeter the juice” guess u wasn’t real anyway
Young Bert…Burp…burger..or whater..who is he? Should I recognize him!!??
LOL..LOL..LOL.. all day and in my sleep
Thats really sad! ………….sad! This is very sad, because its purely obvious you hate yourself. The reason I say this is because Im pretty sure you have to use something to slick your hair down, or cause it to wave (i.e gel, murrays, pomade, wave cap) and to hear you say this is not attractive to you or beneath you it must make you feel really hypocrytical when you’re getting dressed in the morning. And its quite obvious one or/both your parents are black; and im pretty sure you make them feel really proud of all the hard work their parents did for you to even appear on television/ or radio today. (let alone, the priviledge to even speak to white women).
The bible states, “…its not what goes in a man that defileths a man, but what comeths out” Basically, just be quiet and let us assume you stupid, than to speak and remove all doubt! Good luck to rest of your career! God bless!
WELL I DONT KNOW ABOUT YALL BUT I THINK THAT ITS NOT RIGHT FOR YALL TO JUDGE YUNG BERG ON HOW HE FEELS.I MEAN I KNOW THAT ,THAT WASNT THE RIGHT THING FOR HIM TO SAY BECAUSE PERSONALLY IM DARK-SKINNED MYSELF BUT NOT THAT DARK.PERHAPS THIS, EVEN THOUGH IM KINDA DARK-SKINNED I STILL GET ALOT OF GUYS.AND I KNOW IF HE SEEN ME HE WILL PROBABLY WANT ME TO.IM NOT THE DARK-SKINNED ONES WITH THE NAPPY HEADS I ACTUALLY GOT INDIAN IN ME.BUT BESIDES ALL THAT I KNOW WERE YUNG BERG IS COMING FROM BECAUSE I LIKE LIGHT SKINNED GUYS.4EX.(YUNG BERG)BUT TO ME I FEEL THAT ,THAT WASNT A RACIAL COMMENT.HE’S JUST DIFFERENT THEN EVERYONE AND THAT’s A GOOD THING.IT REALLY DOESNT EFFECT ME BECAUSE IM STILL GONNA LIKE HIM FOR WHO HE IS.PEACE<:

To the young woman defending her “boo” Yung Berg, I feel like the only reason you’re NOT offended is because you’re scared to admit that some people would actually NOT be attracted to you, especially because of something as inane as the color of your skin.
Its okay to have your preference, I’m not going to go off on him because of that. But to go out into public and, as a black man, say that your women do not appeal to you….that’s shady. Something that, sadly, black women have had to get used to…
I’m a 100% Black female and though I’m not “dark”, I’m offended and think he’s disgusting.
what that ^$%@, maybe this kid should retire from these 10 minutes of fame(not 15)and further his education. I’m not even dark skinned but I was offended as a black woman…and what kinda foolishness is it that? A girl cant even use gel to be with him?! LOL Poor thing…maybe he should just be real and say you want a white chick…I mean it’s nothing wrong that, just be real pimpin!
PS and i don’t know any black girl who is just going to jump in the pool like that anywayz!!!
YOUNG BERG NEEDS TO BE SLAPPED.HE’S JUST AS IGNORANT AS THEY COME. HOW CAN YOU SIT THERE AND DEGRADE WOMEN OF YOUR OWN RACE OR ANY WOMEN IN THAT WAY.I CAN’T BELIEVE HE HAD THE AUDACITY AS A BLACK MAN TO EVEN MAKE THAT COMMENT.PEOPLE MOVE UP A LITTLE IN THE WORLD AND THEY THINK THEY CAN SAY ANYTHING.YOU BEEN ON WHAT LIKE 2 OR 3 SONGS.YOU JUST REALLY NEED TO STOP.THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING DARKED SKIN OR USING GEL.EVERYBODY USES IT WHITE, BLACK , PUERTO RICAN.IT’S OKAY TO HAVE YOUR OWN PREFRENCE BUT YOU DO NOT BY ANY MEANS HAVE THE RIGHT TO TRY AND PUT ANY ONE DOWN BECAUSE OF THEIR SKIN TONE. WHEN YOUR BLACK YOUR BLACK WHETHER YOU LIGHT SKIN , FAIR SKIN OR WHATEVER. BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL AND COMES IN MANY DIFFERENT SHADES AND HE NEEDS TO REALISE THAT. BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY YOUR SKIN TONE DON’T MAKE YOU “SPECIAL” BECAUSE YOUR NOT ATTRACTIVE. NOT ANYTHING WORTH LOOK TWICE AT.
AND TO THE GIRL DEFENDING HIM YOUR PRETTY MUCH JUST AS IRRELEVANT. YOU SHOULD BE OFFENDED BECAUSE YOUR A BLACK WOMAN WHETHER YOU THINK THAT’S YOUR “BOO” OR NOT. YOU COULD’NT EVEN ASSOCIATE YOURSELF WITH BEING BLACK WITH OUT SAYING YOUR NOT THAT DARK SKINNED AND YOU HAVE A LITTLE INDIAN IN YOU. IF YOUR BLACK YOUR BLACK LIKE I SAID BEFORE.
WHAT YOUN BERG SAID SHOWS THAT THEIR IS OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING WRONG GOING ON NOT JUST IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY BUT EVERYWHERE.
BUT GOOD LUCK TO YOUNG BERG’S CAREER IM SURE HIS IGNORANT COMMENTS WON’T SLOW IT DOWN.
Where is this young man’s mother and father? I guess no one has ever taught him how to love himself, because it doesn’t matter how he see’s us, and with the ignorant shit he is spewing it would seem as if he see us as other races see us, he’s a race hater and if his ignorant ass doesn’t like himself then why would he think a darkskinned sister was beautiful. Im a dark, dark skinned sister and it amazes me at the number of beautiful light skinned brothers that come on to me, I find it quite a turn on, Im a sister who thinks all black men are beautiful regardless of their hue!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well I am pretty sure Yung Berg have a few dark skinned black people in his family. He do not look white so he just offend his family members with that comment. But he is not all that attractive or famous to make a ridiculous comment like that. I think when he was not gain his little fame no dark skinned woman would talk to him now he is decide to be ignorant.
As a beautiful black woman I belive that the comment yung berg made was 100% racist and degrading to ALL black women. White, Black< Red, Yellow…we are all beautiful and he obviously didn’t get too far in school because being a black man he should realize that. Dark skinned women are twice as beautiful becuase we were onced spit on for our beautiful skin! we have to work twice as hard and that’s why I look uo to celebs who are darker than Yung Berg “likes” his women. And I hate the fact that men such as him hate that women like to feel good about them selves by wearing brown gel. I am black, beautiful and I love GEL! so to hell with how you feel about dark skin women. You should accept them how God made them and not focus so much on appearance.
ANYONE WHO IS BLACK SHOULD BE STRONGLY OFFENDED ABOUT WHAT YUNG BERG SAID. I AM DARKSKINNED [NOT THE DARKEST OF THE BUNCH] BUH FAIRLY DARK AND I AM PERSONALLY VERY OFFENDED. WHY WOULD A BLACK MAN DEGRADE HIS OWN RACE? U NEED TO REMEMBER THAT ALL BLACKS STARTED OUT VERY DARK. THEY BECAME LIGHTER BECAUSE THEY BACAME MIXED WITH OTHER RACES. THEREFORE WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD HE DEGRADE HIS OWN ROOTS? THIS COMMENT WAS NOT RACIST BUT VERY OFFENSIVE? WHAT DOES HE MEAN BY “DARK BUTTS” ANYWAYS. THIS JUST GIVES FURTHER EVEDINCE OF HOW PEOPLE SEE LIGHTSKINNED PEOPLE AS BETTER AND PRETTIER BECAUSE THEIR CLOSER TO WHITE.
PLEASE…YOUR BLACK..BE PROUD OF WHO U ARE AND YOUR ROOTS!
NOW WHEN I SAY THAT NIGGA IS TRIPPIN DAT NIGGA IS TRIPPIN NIGGA WHAT YOU THINK YOU BETTER THEN SOMBODY CUZ YOU LIGHT SKINNED HELL IM LIGHT SKINNED AND BEATUIFUL BUT I USE BROWN GEL TO HOLD MY DAME BABY HAIR YOU IS JUST GOT IGNORENT WRITTEN ALL OVER YOU I HOPE YOU CHANGE YOUR MENTALATY ON THINGS OR LEARN HOW TO PUT THINGS IN BETTER TERMS OR YOUR CAREER IS GOING NOWHERE KINDA LIKE IT IS RIGHT NOW A SHORT CAREER FOR ASS SHORT NIGGA
See now im pissed off not only is that stupid as hell it was absolutely the most ignorant statement i’ve ever heard. You bouncin’ around like you somebody and shit cuz you got ine or two songs. WTF?!! and they were lame as hell “sexy can i?” what the fuck no you cant hit it from the back all cuz you said excuse me the fuck wrong with you?
you aint cute at all wow i swear you get a little money and forget where you come from most of the people in your family tree were probably dark-skinned. Either way you’re lame and ur songs suck ass and you speak with a lisp at that is that what you define as gangsta? ssss-sssir?
let me clear it up… Young Berg… may I say Christian Ward is one of the most respectable men that I have ever met in my life. Seriously, women… listen to his lyrics and too all the women that have met him and those that do know him know for a fact that he’s not a racist. Think about how many times that you have said something in response to someone teasing you or talking shit about you…what you actually do and when you say something back to them you put a little more emphasis on a point than you meant too. Seriously… think about it. He didn’t mean that he was actually racist. And for all of those who listen to the little clip of the interview actually think about how many times you may have said something and people took it out of context and blew it up. From being in high school to college rumors to rumor every single day… how many of those are the solid truth and NOTHING was exaggerated in anyway and nothing was left out. NONE. The interview was blown out of proportion and out of context. Although you can print the actual words that he did say and it seems so horrible, but there is more to that than what was posted on the internet.
TO be real honest…. The time that I have spent with him, talking to him, and getting to know him…. majority of the conversations have been about the fans and how much he cares about them. So for you guys/women to jump up and flip out on a nigga, well let me be politically correct for those of you that are critiquing every word…. For you women to quickly jump to conclusion of hating this young black entrepreneur over some setup interview is really upsetting to me. I’m so disappointed at all the comments that were posted and said… as if your comment were any nicer or intelligent than the stuff that was supposively so offensive in the first place. I am so upset that I personally can contest that this man stays in the studio day and night… go to clubs and events to mingle with his fans (which most artist don’t even care to take the time to do that) and stays committed to producing hit after hit for people to listen to that his fans would respond like that. I don’t know it may be different for other people to understand how I feel because you haven’t met him and had serious conversations with him on the subject. Imagine meeting someone that all they talk about is how they are happy that they can wake up everyday and work on their dream and create new things that people love everyday, that music is their life and they are thankful to have the ability and opportunity to share their talent and collaborate with others to make great music.
About the comment about him changing his number all the time to dodge his baby momma, again from this bogus website, I met Berg in September of 07 and that number not once has changed. SO where that came from I don’t know. Females need to learn to stop adding things on to their stories to make it look better for them. A little lie here a little lie there, please grow up. The internet gossip sites are really getting out of control.
To go into what he did state on the station is that I’m sure that majority of the women that he has dated were not dark skinned. But to be honest I’m NOT a light skinned girl either. Caramel toned, exotic, mixed, but not very light skinned and actual quite a bit darker than him. But on a personal level there are women and men that hate me because I’m not dark…. Because I’m not “really” black, and majority of people that are full African American have teased and made comment to and towards me like “you’re an other” “you’re a mutt” or “you don’t know what you are”. And the thing is I love me… from my sexy face, body, unique look, kinky yet straight long hair (when I straighten it), petite body, all of it regardless of what anyone says. SO females if someone was to really say something and mean it in a negative way about your skin color… you shouldn’t be so offended because you love you regardless of what anyone else things. And for me I get it from all races because I am mixed but the reality of it all is that they are simply jealous that they aren’t what I am. Something I think that God has made me beautiful to show everyone that segregation of races is not what he wants, a mixture and no racism brings beautiful things. And all of me is beautiful from my head to my toes and into my soul, so to the women don’t let your spirits break or your self esteem be hurt by anyone comments about anything but we do need to start taking care of ourselves and showing the world that we are beautiful inside and out.
Back to his statements….Everyone is talking saying that this is an example of “colorism” but its really not… he is just stating his preference. As all have a preference. Ok the comment that they are “dark butts” was a little foolish, but if people were joking about your complexion and saying things to undermine what you look like you would most likely cut a few comments back to them… honestly… I’m not to sure how many people can say that they wouldn’t have responded without making a cut back at them. But back to the point. Really how different is that from a woman saying “I don’t really do dark niggas” or the whole things people saying that “light-skinned niggas aint in no more.” Yes, its not really right to say things like that but people do. And everyone has their own preference which they are entitled to. But realistically he might not have met many of the fine ass darker skinned women. Dark skinned women are gorgeous… they gotta do it right, be on point, with swagga, good fit, etc… but that’s the same as any woman. That being said, him having a preference for a lighter skinned female will make it a bit harder for a darker skinned female to get at him. But real talk…. If a girl is fine…. she fine regardless of her skin tone and he knows that. If a bad dark-skinned female approached Berg I’m sure that he would not turn her down. He looks for quality women as you can tell from what he says, does, writes, and produces. I can definitely confess that the time that I have spent with this young man I know that he is not racist in anyway, he just simply has a preference as we all do.
The pool test to be honest I agree with him and any real female will too… If a man doesn’t jump in the pool and come out look even sexy than he was before he got in… with water droplets glissining off his sexy six pack and everything… mmmm… that’s not a good look for him and I definitely… might reconsider some things but seriously its not just looks that decides a relationship… but we’re just saying you want someone that you are attracted to still… after the pool test..… But realistically think about it I’m sure that there are a lot of females with caked on make up, fake eyelashes, and the list goes on… all he was saying is that the water can tell wonders. He doesn’t want a chick that when she get in the pool she come out looking like the swamp thing.. And I don’t blame him. Any real nigga would agree with that statement too. Its just that so many chicks are fake with presenting themselves.. and the pool test is one way to see what chick really look like without the makeup and all the fake stuff there is out there today to make someone look different than they normally do.
I’m sure that the apology was genuine and that the stupid and petty online website that posted the first links to the interview actual took the interview out of context. I hope that all the ladies accept this apology and I guess then men too, cause some have posted things on the internet in response. It took so long for me to respond because I’m on the grind and working all the time and actually didn’t have time to surf the internet to see the responses to his interview. Trust me my time is much more valuable than to be sitting here typing something to people that I don’t even know but I was just so shocked when I actual was able to view things women said about him, I had to respond.
Regarding his album release any female that doesn’t buy this album will be missing out. The shit is hot…. I think that any female that doubts his intentions and how he feels about women should listen to the album and think about what he is actually saying in the album….because he doesn’t write his own lyrics, produce songs, and spend every waking moment in the studio for no reason. He’s does it because he cares and want to voice to his fans how he feels through his music. The album is hot anyone that loves music and collaboration of different artist will know what I’m talking about. Just suggesting to women, don’t let some bogus as interview and website break what you feeling when you ,listen to his music. Seriously if you are considering boycotting someone or something I think that you should consider boycotting artist that produce songs and write lyrics that degrade females and refer to them only as gutter bitches, hoes, bitches, sideline hoes, groupies, etc. Clearly if you listen to his lyrics he’s not staying any of that, its quite the opposite. For all the real ass girls and fans out there I’m sure you understand what I’m talking about and will support him cause I don’t know any other 22 year old black male that is one the grind, staying positive, keeping God first, staying focused, and caring so much about his fans like he does. Please don’t let something so petty and false change your mind about him. I love him to death and I’m sure you do too… AND to be honest I didn’t know who he was when I met him but from the time that we have spent together… I can say that he truly cares about his fans and really want to make all of you regardless of skin color, gender, ethnicity or whatever you want to classify yourself as happy. That is why he works so hard. AND yes I would like to remain anonymous just for obvious publicity issues! Much love and support to YB and the whole YB gang!!!
OBVIOUSLY the “anonymous” female who comented above has proven to be some-what right. She also has proven to be a dick rider. “The pool test” she speaks of people wearing artificial things Im sure everyone has worn or does wear something ‘fake’ to enhance their features. What he said was just out of line, She must be the next ’super head’ or some shit…Some one as “big” as him in th industry/ someone trying to make it should keep comments like that to himself!….when you iconic or a role model to anyone it is crucial that you watch what you say or do.
Yung Berg is a fake ass nigga who ain’t even grown yet This nigga fake as hell he need to get grown before he start talkin that slick shit He WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACk His CD suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks
To everyone defending Christain Ward…..
It’s not his opinion that was so offensive and disrespectful, it’s how he said it. He could have said “I prefer ….” and been done, but no instead he decided to be childish and use the word “dark butts.” How unintelligent. I have friends who have preferences and yes thats perfectly normal, BUT they do not disrespect and degrade that other color of people. I’m a dark skinned female and yes I take offense to his statement. And to his comment about the pool test, they are plenty of people that wear make up and such and thats within every color and race of people. Was that even necessary to say? I understand he likes natural beauty but that “pool test” nonsense was unnecessary to say. And by the way, natural beauty can come in ANY color: light, dark, brown, whatever; so let’s be wise when judging people. This truely makes me think less of Mr. Ward.
FUCK YUNG BERG AND HIS 2 MINUTES OF FAME. HE AINT NO REAL GOON ENWAYZ! HE IS FINALLY RECOGNIZED BY THE SONG “BUSINESS” AND THROWS IT ALL AWAY BY THE WRONG CHOICE OF WORDS THAT CAME OUT OF HIS MOUTH! POOR GUY, STEP BACK AND FINISH LETTING A REAL GOON LIKE “PLIES” TAKE THE SPOT LITE, U FUCK AZZ PUSSY BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tisk Tisk…..young burp,bird,whatever, honestly I can rant and rave about your lack of culture and stupidity…..but I never heard of you, much like a like a fly on the wall, NOT IMPORTANT!
Firstly the chick/chicks that defends him, you a sad sad creatures….going on about mixed with indian (you really want us to know that you are not what he is refering to??) you are darling, everyone with a string of black is who he is talking about. The other woman who went on and on about him being a ‘good’ person ( I lost interest and didn’t finish her post) is irrelavant, he has presented himself in a package (to people he is trying to win favour with a.k.a fans )that says in a nut shell…’dark women are ugly’. Stange to me that people who are black are trying to create prejudice within there own race, who’s lighter, who’s hair has more curls etc. as a black woman I am really embarassed and saddened.
By the way young fart, I’m very light skinned with long curly hair and I look the same way going in a pool as i do when I come out….and i will NEVER EVER ENTERTAIN A CUNT LIKE YOU WHO MOST LIKEY CAN’T EVEN CATCH THE INTEREST OF A REAL WOMAN AND HAs TO SETTLE FOR ‘SHELLS OF WOMEN’ WHO ACCEPT YOU BEING DEGRADING ABOUT YOUR OWN RACE!
wow im so surprised i really liked yung berg and his music . but that was innapropriate for him to say because im dark skin but im really pretty and trust light dark n all kinds of boys be chasin me lightskinn chicks aint whats up nomore. but neways light or dark we all beautiful so why judge. “dark butts” is a childish thing to say. but neway who kno’s 1 day you might marry a dark chick n regret what u said
