EXCLUSIVE: RAY-J & YUNG BERG AT SPOTLIGHT
Here’s another one…last night ya gurl had the pleasure of attending “R&B Live” at Spotlight with Epic/Koch recording artists Ray- J, Yung Berg, and Casely. Yung Berg hit the stage performing his hit “Sexy Lady” and new single “Do That There” off his upcoming album Look What You Made Me. Newbie Casely, a 22 year old classically trained pianist sang his current single “Emotional”. And closing ou the night Ray- J rocked the stage with “Wait a Minute”, “One Wish” and #1 hit single “Sexy Can I” alongside Yung Berg. And yes there was a whole lotta stroking, sweating, crotch grabbing, and a bit of stripping…courtesy of Ray-J. Others in the building included Kevin Liles, AZ, DJ Kay Slay, ANTM reject (can’t recall chick’s name), and many others. CLICK HERE FOR VIDEO PERFORMANCES
Kicking off the night was a set up of meet & greets in the private VIP media room with Yung Berg and a couple of new acts. Ya know I took the opp to ask Yung about his recent interview with DJ Envy where he took some shots at Bow Wow and Kim Kardasshian.
On Bow Wow:
“I wouldn’t call it taking shots at him. I mean ever man is entitled to their opinion. I didn’t take no shots at him. I mean if I was taking shots at him, we’d be gettin’ it poppin. Ya dig? But it’s all good, shout out to the boy, Get Money!”
On Kim Kardashian:
“I called her ‘Damaged Goods’ because my big bro done had her. And the way Envy set it up it was kind of like Envy tried to play like ‘Would I have Sex with her?’ No! She’s my bro’s ex-thing, like she’s damaged goods. She’s not for me, it’s my personal opinion. I don’t speak for nobody else.” (Audio will be up shortly)
Ray-J rolled into the set sorta late but was a real cool in dealing with the media. Very cocky but I must admit sweet. While he worked the room, I realized his mom, Sonja Norwood, was in the building. I quickly got in journalist mode.
“Mrs. Norwood, how do you feel about your son and his recent film endeavors?/ No Comment. But I will say he’s a grown man! (Smile)”
After much posing for the camera, it was time for Ray-J to make his way backstage for a lil’ warm up. With a crowded building, I made my way to the front of the room preparing for Yung Berg’s and Ray-J’s set. And started snapping…
By the end of the night, I came to a realization. Yeah, Ray-J maybe raunchy and a tid bit oversexual for my taste…but overall he’s just a young dude trying to come up outta his big sister’s shadow and make a name for himself anyway he can. Kind of pathetic how a porn flick with a hot white chick suddenly made his star shine a lil’ brighter, but like Fifty said “Get Rich or Die Tryin’”. And by no means am I co-signing his newfound stardom, but if it works for him…I can’t knock him.
