Timeline
Carl-Mikael Göran "Micke" Berlander (born 29 August 1995), known professionally as Gud (formerly known as Yung Gud), is a Swedish DJ, music producer and rapper best known as a member of rapper Yung Lean's Stockholm-based group Sad Boys.
He began producing at the age of twelve, making psychedelic trance music, which heavily influenced his sonic palette.
His production as a part of Sad Boys has been well received.
Outside of his role in Sad Boys, he has released an EP, named Beautiful, Wonderful, and a collaborative album, Foreign Exchange, with American rapper Rx Papi.
Under his alternate persona/alias Rooster he has released one EP, Rooster Debut.
He has acted as a producer for several acts including Halsey, and has also remixed several songs for other artists such as Jacques Greene, Kacy Hill, and Tinashe.
These remixes have also garnered a positive critical response from publications including Pigeons & Planes and The Fader.
Berlander was born in Stockholm in 1995.
Following his parents' divorce when he was ten, his dad and his older sister moved to a Stockholm suburb different to where he was living at the time.
Berlander, as well as the other members of the Sad Boys group, have described living in Stockholm as "boring" and "miserable".
While he has resided in the city for most of his life, Berlander had once lived in a small urban area called Gnesta, which he opined to be a Swedish equivalent to Kentucky: "Stupid people and alcohol problems, I don't know. It sucks of over there. It's so boring."
He said that his mother "liked to spoil me."
Berlander is part of a mixed race family, since his Nigerian grandfather met his grandmother, who was a Swede, in London.
He said that his identity of his mixed race made him feel like he was "on this little island".
As Yung Gud described in how he first met Yung Lean, "My friend was fucking his friend at the moment. And she introduced him to my friend and me and basically that's how I met him. We'd drank some beer in a park and were like, "We like the same music, we should do something sometime."" The two had always thought of creating material together, but the two didn't start doing so until around October 2012 with the track "Oreomilkshake": "I think we were drunk in his basement and we made "Oreomilkshake." Then I just made some beats when I had the time."
He explained how the name of Sad Boys came about: "I was going to buy some clothes at a store with Yung Sherman, and it was closed, and I got sad, and basically that's that."
As for the stage name Yung Gud, Berlander came up with simply the word Gud, then decided to change it into Yung Gud to make it funnier, which he described as "a stupid decision."
He did not do well in school, dropping out to pursue a career in music, and his father has always been mixed on this decision; he had always encouraged him to "just go to school and be a good person", saying that "You can't make music without a guitar. However, Berlander said in a 2014 interview that his dad had been getting a little more supportive and into what he had been doing so far. He also claimed in that same interview that he is sober, although, he said that he was wanting to try promethazine "because it's medicine.
But the weeds and the speeds – no, not that."
While he does hope to collaborate with other artists, he said in 2014 that he has been very much focused with his work for Sad Boys and his solo material.
Yung Gud's production for Yung Lean's works has garnered favorable responses from critics, with some spotlighting how it complements Lean's rapping, and according to a journalist, his "lush" and "melodic" beats were a major part of the listeners' appeal towards Lean.
Yung Gud has admitted to liking Yung Lean, and that he has gotten more "secure" as a rapper as time goes on.
He thinks that "He makes people feel some type of way".
He disagrees with Lean's common comparison to Lil B, although he does comprehend why this comparison is made.
However, he has also said that "there is always something wrong about him. It's like something wrong about the whole Sad Boys thing. People get really, really angry or really happy when they hear it. That's his main attraction. He's going to make people feel some type of way."
While touring with the Sad Boys during the popularity of Yung Lean's album Unknown Memory, Berlander began suffering from abuse from using stimulants like cocaine, as well as the benzodiazepine anxiety medication xanax as other members of the group did.
This led to him not able to "recognize [himself] anymore".
As a result, he decided to return to Sweden to spend time with his family.
A Complex magazine critic made note of the lack of popularity of Yung Gud's career outside of Sad Boys, writing that "There's no reason this should be on the low, though, because the works are fire."
Yung Gud made a track called "Crushed", a song that's part of a genre he made up called "crushcore".
This was "So people won't call it post-witchhouse-chill-step or dub-core with emo influences. Or they won't say, "This track is cool, but can you make it more based?" It's like, "This is crushcore.
Fuck off."" On 5 June 2014, Yung Gud announced that he had finished his debut extended play the past week, and had been looking for a label to release it: "I don't want to keep people waiting anymore. I don't want to keep myself waiting."
He had also stated he was thinking of naming the record either Wonderful or Beautiful.
The now-titled four-track Beautiful, Wonderful was available for streaming worldwide via The Fader on 24 November 2014.
The Sky Team label released it in European stores that same day, and to markets in the United States on 25 November.
As Yung Gud described, "I've always wanted to make a product of some sort. So with this EP, I'm finally selling a specific sound and look to the people that have been supporting my music for the past year and a half."
Beautiful, Wonderful received a positive review from Andrew Ryce of Resident Advisor, who scored the release a 3.5 out of five: "His solo tracks have a stargazing majesty to them, but the melodies are nailed down with grandiose percussion that makes it feel almost symphonic."
The EP was promoted with a ten-day European tour lasting from 12–22 November.
On 22 June 2016, Vice Media's electronic music channel Thump premiered "Body Horror," Yung Gud's first original track in two years.
It, according to Thump, is an "obfuscated, hazy R&B through a grab bag of blemishing distortion techniques, decorating it with light discordance and snippets of ravey synth patches for texture. Fittingly, it shares its name with a style of fiction known for its gut-churning corporeal thrills."
