In 2005, Yung Berg worked as a hypeman and recording assistant for Disturbing tha Peace member and Chicago rapper Shawnna. He also appeared in the music video for singer Kat DeLuna's debut single Whine Up.
Yung Berg is one of the the founders of the Yung Boss imprint and production team Yung Bosses, along with JFK and Rob Holladay. In December 2008, Berg began casting "exceptionally stand out beautiful dark skin/brown skin women to showcase beauty of all races" for a potential dating reality show that he would host. However, as evidenced by the trailer for his new TV Show, titled "Back In Business", it will no longer be a dating show.
Yung Berg has previously insulted Miami rapper Brisco on a video podcast. After singer Ne-Yo accused Berg of copying auto-tune vocal style from T-Pain and Lil Wayne, Berg posted a video blog criticizing Ne-Yo.

West coast let me see what ya crumpin' like
Mid West let me see what ya mono like
East coast let me see what ya shakin' like
C'mon
[Bow Wow]
[Verse One]
Heard my songs, you know how it goes
Since 87 I've been having this effect on these females
Power to make them stand and listen to me like a sea shell
I got what they want, I know how they like it
Got what ya need baby please don't fight it
You know my status, know my flow
You know thaty n***a that you wit, he aint even close
[Hook:]
I'm money in da bag, all I do is pop tags
Don't you wanna be down, with somebody that's gonna make you smile and laugh
Don't you wanna be down
I'm young, I'm fly and I got the swag, that you need in your life
I'm a young J. Brown, I'm super bad, guaranteed to treat you right
Let's ride
[Chorus:]
All I need is one time and I bet you go crazy
Cuz imma make you do what it do baby
No if's, no and's, no but's or maybe's

Don't worry, don't trip, just hurry hurry and bring it over here baby
Don't worry, don't trip, just hurry cuz imma make you do what it do baby
[Verse Two]
Ya n***a 18 now, you aint know

With somebody that's gonna make you smile and laugh
Don't you wanna be down

Stepping up from the floor, Going downstairs, open up de door You see the fuckup cars ´n bikes, watch the hobo´s on the right, Why do I am not like them, I´m a rapper, making money, It is not the talent what I have, it is what I do, Bring the lighter and light up your cave, See the exit and when you´re outside you say ´I´m gonna get em´
