Rhapsody: There was a VIBE article a few years back where some Chicago musicians complained about Common not doing enough to help out other Chi-Town artists. How do you feel when you hear stuff like that?
Yung Berg: That’s b*llsh*t. It's not opportunities in Chicago so you gotta be able to holla at other avenues for yourself. What’s really the problem as long as you still rep Chicago? I don’t hear Common talking about he don’t love Chicago. He put on for the city. Back at that time, I was in the 'hood so Common had a different type of music. Chicago is just a city full of haters. It’s the ‘hood, n*gg*. It’s f*ck*d up. Nobody got nothing so they don’t like to see nobody else with it. Name one person from Chicago that’s in the business that Chicago really has love for. Who would you think?
Rhapsody: Kanye West?
Yung Berg: Wrong. Kanye can’t walk through the ‘hood. Name the last time Kanye been in the ‘hood. If you think about it, never. Never in seven years probably. Ain’t nobody [in the ‘hood] got no love for Kanye.
Rhapsody: Didn’t he shoot the “Homecoming” video in the ‘hood?
Yung Berg: That sh*t was downtown, dawg. And then they went by one of the projects. That wasn’t the ‘hood. He still wasn’t no ‘hood dude. Everyone known him from being musical. Same thing with me. They don’t like people that get on. That’s why Kanye still reps Chicago to the fullest, but he not in the ‘hood in Chicago.
Rhapsody: Didn’t Common shoot “The Corner” video in the ‘hood?
Yung Berg: Common's a different situation ‘cause to n*gg*s in the ‘hood, Common is a conscious rapper. He not in their lane. They feel like Common is in a league of his own.
Rhapsody: Does Lupe get love in Chicago?
Yung Berg: Lupe’s situation is also different because Lupe is a conscious rapper. N*gg*s in the ‘hood don’t like nobody unless you affiliated with gangs. It’s the worst city in the U.S.
Rhapsody: When you go back, you don’t really go through the ‘hood?
Yung Berg: Yeah, I was just in the ‘hood. I did Rap City: My Hood. It’s f*ck*d up in Chicago. If you not affiliated with nobody, nine times out of 10, people gonna try and extort you.
