ok but he also lived more in that 6 months then you have your whole existence. He had the finest of broads from rich white royalty Paris Hilton, to hip hop queen royalty lil Kim, to reality royalty and modern day Marilyn Monroe , Kim Kardashian...

Also he may of done a lot of cocaine but he paid his dues in retrospect and now he’s clean to prosper ... so what is it that has you not living life to the fullest . Hate people who always try to shyt on others short comings especially those who dealt with drugs. He was a user not a seller .


They should of touched on his money more in this documentary. The man had a 30M yacht and a 10M dollar yacht that was paid for before that one... he lived in a multi million dollar star island home...

He is the first in HIP HOP and in America to OWN the Bugatti veyron, way before anyone even knew what it was ..

He was the epitome of the American Dream. It’s unfortunate he lost it all seeing he could or bought rental properties x 20-50 and just lived in the penthouse at the top and collect rent until he died. But to each it’s own.. we all have choices in life to become wealthy. Stay stagnant. Or steady go closer to ones goals.

Of course we have to find a way and a path that suits each individual but ya the choice is yours. I recently lost a lol fortunate about 100k but it’s the get back now

If you don't get outta here with that wall of text. I'm not reading all that shyt :dame:

Man that doco was way too short, could of been another 20 minutes and gone more in depth.

Was dope to hear him talk about the 2001 sessions, and how Dre would program the drums and then listen out for the best parts, bringing everything together.

Scott has so many classics, hopefully he has another run, sounds like he's fukking with a lot of the new cats now which is dope.

He mentioned he's been involved with Ferg2for along time but I can't recall any music they've made together?

Good doc. Should've been longer. Storch doesn't get all the credit he should as a producer. He was oversaturated in 04-05, but that doesn't mean the sound wasn't fire.

Shoulda' been longer but they totally glazed over the whole Timberland beef! That was a big deal at a time and turning point for scott many folks didn't look at him the same after that.....Timberland disssed him on a hot club record :whew: don't think there was another producer beef of that caliber that i can think off (both in their primes)

I actually met Scott in i think it was Crobar club in Miami he was with his artist Knox from Philly at the time...cool dude dapped up me and my boy (was wearing a phillies hat) and wasn't in VIP but left in the ghost with 2 bad bytches :noah: had me thinking what am i doing with my life :mjlol:

we still pretending that dre produces beats:gucci:

There's no way you can enter this thread and discredit Dre when Storch himself is telling you what Dre does from a production stand point. I mean, I don't get how some of ya'll still sit there and discredit Dre and turn around and praise Storch. There's a reason a world of difference between Dre giving 50 Cent "Outta Control" (original and remix) and Storch giving him "Candy Shop" and "Just A Lil' Bit" on the same album.

Joe Jackson's "Stepping Out" is one of my favorite songs. So it was dope to see him playing that live. Dude is mad talented. He got caught up in the trappings of the game, but that doesn't take away from how dope he's always been. People don't give him the credit he deserves.

Storch gets his credit. In fact, he gets more credit than what his work says he should get. Dude was responsible for a considerable amount of hits from 2002-2007. He also was a great keyboardist for The Roots, Dre, and Timbaland. He also did some co-production work for Dre and Timbaland. Where people tend to overrate Storch is giving him credit for songs he didn't produce or co-produce, but simply played on. For example, "Cry Me A River" is a song where Storch played the clavinet and wrote (he didn't get his writing credits), but people will go as far saying he produced that song when he has nothing else that sounds like it, yet the Timbaland produced "Nowhere" sounds nearly identical and there's a version with a transition to "Cry Me A River" on it.

Scott Storch loses points from me because a lot of his beats mimic the producers he worked with. His whole Middle Eastern/Indian production is jacked from Tweet's "Call Me" produced by Timbaland. Listening to Bleek's "We Ballin" and Jada's song with Mariah, it is quite obvious.
