Although Yung Berg is a name that verges on the edge of acceptable rap handles — what's next, Ol' Dirty Gottlieb? — the kid has the CV you like to see in a potential rap star. Originally discovered at age 16 by DMX, Yung Berg is the first artist to come through a new joint venture between major label Epic Records and hip-hop powerhouse KOCH Records. Director Dale "Rage" Resteghini uses the video as an opportunity to clearly prove Berg's pop appeal, showing him mix it up with the sexy ladies at a late night diner hang. The coda takes a harder-edged approach, showing off the rough staccato phrasing that probably caught DMX's ears. --> watch "Sexy Lady" in Quicktime or Windows
