First off, let me say this, and this is gonna make some people furious I am sure, but on some of these tracks the way Berg sounds, he reminds me of Lil Wayne. Seeing how I think that Lil Wayne is whack anyways, maybe it's not such a bad comparison. Some of the stuff he says is just like Lil Wayne in that he will say one line, and then follow up with something totally unrelated that doesn't even make sense, it just happens to rhyme.
This EP starts off strong (if that is the appropriate word, it depends on how you feel about the single Sexy Lady) and then goes straight down the crapper and never looks back.
Just like almost all other new rappers, Yung Berg says absolutely nothing witty or original, on the song Almost Famous his verses would be comparable to Fabolous if he threw in some interesting metaphors/similies/analogies....but he does none of the above. Why Twista agreed to be on Where Do We Go is beyond me, why would you associate yourself with this clown? Doesn't really matter because even his verse is really generic and bland.
I thought maybe the remix would be good, but Jim Jones is whack as usual, Berg's new verse is just like the rest of his verses on the CD, nothing special, and the previous two makes Rich Boy's turn on the mic look like a highlight.
Even if you are someone that only pays attention to beats you can't give this EP much credit, the best are the Sexy Lady and Where Do We Go.....the last track, Painkiller, apparently isn't even a Yung Berg song but some R&B song by Nikki Flores. He drops a very forgettable verse, i don't even think its a full 16 bars. The beat on the song is average, but for me, as I get ready to throw on the new Common CD, an average beat isn't gonna save a darn thing, you gotta say somethin worth our time.
The best advice anyone can give Yung Berg is to pull this off the shelves and put Sexy Lady on his full CD in the fall - go back to the drawing board and think of something creative to say sohis debut doesn't bomb.
after 1 listen throw this away sexy lady should be played qwhile taking a [pretty girl to the movies only.
YUNG BERG'S DEBUT ALBUM IS THE CD OF THE YEAR. HE IS MY FAVORITE AND THE BEST NEW ARTIST OF THE YEAR. HE HAS THE BEST EP ALBUM EVER. AND IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THIS ALBUM THEN GO GET IT RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
