03/27: Yung Berg on Contributions to Diddy/Dirty Money's "Last Train to Paris"; Says More Tracks in the Vault
In an
interview with Global Grind, Yung Berg discussed
his work on Diddy/Dirty Money's "Last Train to Paris" album.
Back in February of 2010,
Berg revealed that he had contributed a substantial amount of work to the album. When it was released, however, he did not receive a producer or co-producer credit on any of the songs that were
included on the album.
One of the tracks,
"Make Love to You," was included on the
"LoveLOVE vs. HateLOVE" mixtape.
In total, Berg says that he contributed to "like eight records" on the mixtape. But, he added, more songs remain in the vault.
GG: How did you get involved with Diddy’s Last Train to Paris?
YB: I lot of people don’t know that the biggest misconception about me is that I’m just like a rapper or something like that. A lot of people don’t know that like all of my records that I’ve ever been involved with from “Sexy Lady’’, ‘’Sexy Can I’’ to ‘’The Business’’ I’ve actually wrote and produced those records as well, you know?! Diddy actually reached out when ‘’The Business’’ was like hot or whatever. We went to Diddy’s House and I was like yo, I had a song called ‘’Out of Space” and I’m like yo I want to go with this song, but I’m singing the whole song. Let me play it for you, so I played it for him. He’s like, homie, ain’t you singing on ‘’The Business’’? What are you talking about? And that’s like how our relationship started, and believe it or not he was working on Last Train to Paris at that point and he just sent us in the studio immediately like yo, let’s get this sound together. I’m not going to front; we worked like a couple of years on that project. It’s even countless songs that are not even out that he just got in the vault. The Love vs. Hate mixtape just came out. We have like eight records on that tape and not counting the joints that are on this album. It was really crazy, like it happened real organically like I’m saying that he and I are best of friends and we hang out every day and Twitter each other or whatever. But, just to be able to work with a guy of that magnitude and for him to like my writing and my production is just the ultimate compliment.
