Young Berg Calls Dark Skinned Women "Dark Butts"

This is the most ignorant -ish i've heard today... well it doesn't top the Jesse Jackson comment about Barack Obama, but that's another post. But this punk Young Berg was on Serius Radio show Lip Service and had this to say about darker skinned females:

I'm kinda racist ... I don't like dark butts .... You know how some women prefer light skin men or dark skin men. It's rare that I do dark butts - that's what I call dark skinned women ... I [don't date women] darker than me. I love the pool test. If you can jump in the pool exactly like you are and you don't come out looking better than you looked before going in the pool - then that's not a good look.Any woman that uses brown gel to set down her baby hair is not poppin'!!!

Dude are you *uckin kidding me? Do you realize how many of your "darker skinned" female fans that you have just alienated? And not to mention women period. That's not hot! I mean, I mean, you're entitled to like who you like, but to come out and say some ignorant ass -ish like this.... Oh hell naw!!! You been wack since the word "GO"... so it don't make me no nevamind!!!

YOU SUCK YUNG BERG WITH YOUR "FIRE CROTCH". I HEARD EXACTLY WHAT YOU SAID AND NOW YOU TRYING TO SAY THAT IT WAS TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT. WHAT YOU SAID WAS IGNORANT & DISRESPECTFUL. YOUR MUSIC WAS NEVER THAT HOT. YOU JUST LOST THE FEW FANS YOU HAD. YOU SORRY SLOB. HOW YOU GONNA TALK ABOUT DARK SKIN WOMEN WHEN THE MOTHER OF YOUR SON IS A DARK SKIN WOMAN.

I do not see why everyone is acting so surprised. Hip Hop does not like dark skinned girls. Look at the most played videos of the so called hottest artists, there are no dark skinned women. If there are any they are behind the mixed and Latina girls. Kayne said it best:”If it wasnt for race mixing, their would be no videos”. Hip Hop would rather have no videos than to use a “dark butt”. WOW

What Yung Berg said was just downright stupid and he let it be known to the world what an ignorant and immature person he is. If light skinned women are his preference, then that's cool, there is nothing wrong with that. But to be totally disrespectful of the darker skinned women is just downright mean and hateful. All Black women are beautiful whether light or dark skinned. He should have just kept his mouth closed and kept his thoughts about darker skinned women to himself if thats the way he feel about them. There are just some things you don't say in public.

Wow! I was taken aback by the comments of this young man, but now that I have read them, I must say I am not mad. I am a fairly dark-skinned sista, and at one time had a complex about my skin. However, as I continue to hear and read the negative comments about me and my skin, it is the actions of others that convince me that many people really wish they could look like me. If it wasn’t so, why are tanning salons the most sought after places among other cultures? Oh Joe, say it isn’t so, but it is true, the world wish it could be me. I can not be mad at this brotha or anyone else who criticize dark-skinned women. After all, their pure unadulterated ignorance illuminates the lack of good judgment set forth by their parents to teach them and explain how human life originated and where. If I haven’t learned anything in life from being a teacher, I have learned these two things, (1) The apple doesn’t fall to far from the tree, and (2) children and parents are a reflection of their parents. The best we can do for this young man is pray and educate him and others like him, as best we can. My dark-skinned sistas, love the skin you are in. Never take your clues from words, when actions speak louder. The world wants to be me, and everyday they show me just how much.

Im a black man and I think beauty is beauty . i have seen dark skinned girls that are freakin smokin hot and i have seen light skinned women that are freakin smokin hot and i have seen dark skinned women who were dog faced and i have seen light skinned women that were dog faced. I think all men agree that a beautiful woman is a beautiful woman . I mean damn Gabrielle Union is sexier than a lot of light skinned women i have seen. real talk... fine is fine. but honestly i dont even understand why women are even concerned with what young turd is saying anyway i mean his music is wack and he is like 4 feet tall...really women dont even waist your breath on this lame ass...

The Anonymous that claims to be a teacher illustrates why American education is in shambles. Even the teachers are ignorant.

Hey Berg! I'll take all the chocolate sistas that you can't handle. I love a dark-skinned woman. It's just a damn shame how you will hate on one of your own. I must confess, your name does fit you well. "Yung"-because those were immature comments, and "Berg"-because your career may have just hit an iceberg and sunk your by your ignorance. You should change your name from Yung Berg to "Yung Bigot". Now open your hand and slap yourself.

Wow. Well, we have a dark skinned FIRST LADY! I think his comment was the result of an uneducated young man who does not know his history. I think he is very stupid. I would personally never date a guy like him because he seems right off the bat so superficial and materialistis! I don't know what else to say about his comment because him calling his own race dark butts also includes himself...mixing of the races are a result of slavery when white masters raped black women and produced offspring with his complexion. They were house slaves. We should all stop hating each other. "young berg" is clearly an idiot and was raised by people of the same mentality...Like I said, he needs to take a Black History class, black women are the Rock of the Black race and gave birth to his dumb self and the ones before him...I am a dark skinned woman and far too beutiful to be offended by any of these nonsensical comments. We have a Black woman in the white house and Barack certainly didn't think she was too dark but a beautiful educated woman to bare his beautiful daughters. So the race war continues....I want to say this to all dark skinned women...Black is Black no matter how mixed...Black men who think like this suffer from inferiority issues because they used to get their privates cut off or lynched for dating white women in slavery and the light skinned ones who were quadroons were reserved to be mistresses for the slave masters, the darker ones were simply raped and bread as if we were not women at all. But we need to change the cycle and we have begun....LOVE THE SKIN YOU ARE IN...and some dumb rapper like young berge.....common letters...should not get a dime of your penny to support any of his albums, let him sink for saying that...Not all Black men think this way so let us not hate them all! Some actually are intelligent and know their history of what we have been through and what we have survived...young berg might as well have stood over Martin Luther King's grave and pissed on it...he might as well spit in Al Sharpton's face and all those dark skinned women who died violently for freedom. His music is so whack, I don't even hear it play anymore and if I were a video girl, no matter how much he paid me I would never show my face on his video. You did a great job of slapping your OWN black race in the face bergy...I wonder if you will peel your face like Micheal Jackson too...What a terrible stain slavery has left on our race!

If u pay attention to his video the business that is a big giveaway that he doesnt like dark girls. Yung berg is wrong for wat he said and he has lost a lot of fans. And that sorry ass apology he made is pure BULLSHIT!!
