Here’s how a witness told the incident happened, as reported by Necolebitchie.com:
Yung Berg flew into Detroit late friday night for Hot 102.7’s annual Summer Jamz concert but instead of going straight to his hotel as scheduled, he made a pit stop at a club called Plan B, which i’m hearing is partially owned by Detroit rapper Trick Trick. Now mind you, Berg didn’t tell his label, his management or anyone that he was about to sneak off to the club.
Within minutes of getting inside the club, both Yung Berg and Cap (the person he met up with) were attacked by a group of men affiliated with Trick Trick. I am hearing that Trick Trick was NOT a part of the beat down. In fact, he helped break the fight up. Yung Berg’s security quickly scooped him off the ground and rushed him onto Cap’s tour bus that was parked outside of the club. His transformer chain (pictured below) was snatched during the mayhem. He was then taken to his hotel but did not receive any medical attention. He only suffered minor cuts and bruises and of course he’s a** was in total shock. He literally landed in Detroit and within that same hour caught a beat down. “Welcome To Detroit“!
By this time, Berg wanted to get the hell out of dodge, so arrangements were made and he was put on a plane back home. To all the Detroit fans that were disappointed that he didn’t perform, he really wanted to please his fans but when ish like this go down, please understand “it’s time to go”.
As far as the cause of the beat down, Yung Berg apparently said something in the past that was very disrespectful about Detroit rappers and Detroit don’t play that. Not sure if you remember, but Trick Daddy ended up catching it in Detroit by Trick Trick a few years ago.
According to gossip blogger Necole Bitchie, rapper Yung Berg was supposed to perform in Detroit for Hot 102.7’s annual summer jam but he had to cancel his performance after getting beat up and having his Transformers chain snatched at a club the night before.Proof of the chain-snatching even surfaced on the web as shown in the following pic:

Rapper Da Brat has been sentenced to three years in prison for striking a waitress with a rum bottle at a nightclub last year.
A Superior Court Judge ruled on Friday the hip-hop hitmaker - real name Shawntae Harris - will also serve seven years probation and 200 hours of community service for the incident in addition to her jail time.
Harris, 34, was involved in the altercation at a Halloween party at Studio 72 nightclub in Atlanta, Georgia, on October 31, 2007.
The pair were reported by police to have gotten into an altercation prior to the assault - resulting in the victim’s hospitalization and permanent facial scarring.
Harris entered a guilty plea to aggravated assault in the case.
According to reports, the rapper pleaded to her weeping family as she was led out of the courtroom, saying: “I love y’all.” Harris was previously convicted in 2000 for misdemeanor reckless conduct.
Mikkey Halsted - The Uncrowned King of Chicago Interview & MP3’s

Every so often, time produces something special for the world to enjoy… Chicago, a new hot bed for music talent, has once again given birth to another great MC. Up steps Mikkey Halsted, a product of Southside Chicago’s notorious Wild 100’s section.
Mikkey is not new to the industry. Mikkey got his start with Kanye West. Kanye produced Mikkey’s first demo which landed him a deal with Cash Money Records, but it ended up being a short stint. Mikkey came back home to his old stomping grounds and reconnected with Chicago hip hop pioneer and super producer NO I.D, who is handling the production in bulk and executive producing Mikkey’s “Chicago: The Photo Album” which should shake up the entire industry when it is released..
Mikkey’s style of Classic Hip-Hop lyricism mixed with a street wise perspective should make Hip Hop heads go wild, all while his “Wild 100’s” imagery is enough to keep the block locked down. It’s been a while since an artist has shown lyrical integrity, depth, and street savvy such as Mikkey has.
