Yung Berg Writes “Derrick Rose”
Yung Berg hopes that his song “Derrick Rose,” appropriately named after the NBA star, will be the new version of Wiz Khalifa’s hit song dedicated to Pittsburgh, “Black and Yellow.”
It is a coincidence, but Berg wrote and recorded the single before it was announced that Derrick Rose, rising star of the Chicago Bulls, was named NBA’s MVP this year. It should also be noted that Rose is the youngest-ever recipient of the MVP title. The tribute, Berg hopes, will be played and overplayed until it becomes the Bulls’ official playoff track.
Said the rapper: “The response has been phenomenal… My goal is for it to be playing inside the Bulls playoff [games], like when Derrick Rose scores, or for ESPN to show it. I would love for it to get played like that.” To go along with its popularity, Berg is working quickly to get a music video released next week for the single.
If only the Bulls didn’t have Joakim Noah on their team…then I might be a little more excited.
