Scott Storch has worked with Dr. Dre, Beyonce, Fat Joe and 50 Cent from the 1990s through today.
In a recent interview with HipHopDX on Live With Steve Lobel, Scott Storch describes the modern music industry as “scared” because of all the money at stake. But there is one artist that he says impresses him.
“I definitely think as far as Drake is concerned, he’s definitely one of the most talented people right now for modern music,” the producer says, “and being able to bridge melody and rap together. The sound sonically, his records are great.”
Storch was mentored by Dr. Dre, who he met through Eve. Storch says that producers like Dr. Dre are hard to come by today.
“Watching Dre as a composer, orchestrator of people and music, you learn a lot and I’m very thankful for that,” he says. “Watching him cut vocals and try and bring all the personality out of a voice and make something special where your hair stands up, a lot of people don’t follow that work ethic anymore.”
One of the duo’s collaborations is “Still D.R.E.” from Dr. Dre’s 2001 album. Storch describes making the beat while Dr. Dre was eating.
“I remember he was having a sandwich in the kitchen,” Storch says, “and I started noodling this piano riff, ding, ding, ding, ding, and he came running in. He was like, ‘Yo, that’s that shit. What is that?’ He immediately got on the drums and killed that shit. We just, we made one. We got one.”

Drizzaveli gets props from legends everywhere and haters can’t stand it. #DrakeIsLoveDrakeIsLife
Drizavelli is taking it a lil too far
No it isn’t. You can’t deny that he’s in the same position as 2Pac was before he died. #DrakeIsLoveDrakeIsLife
How? Aubrey is nothing like Pac at all. You fanboys should quit the blasphemy.
How is he not? Just like Pac, Drake is at the top of his game, has haters trying to bring him down and defeat him, but he keeps coming back with a vengeance with epic diss tracks. Not to mention, he’s selling millions of records and singles like Pac. So, yes, he will be called Drizzaveli, whether you like it or not. #DrakeIsLoveDrakeIsLife
how is he not*well he’s a pussy compared to pac*he doesn’t have uplifting tear jerker classics*doesn’t write all of his own material*deep down inside other rappers would take on pac’s persona before drake*Need more shit face?long live the 80’s & 90’s*
your fucked in the head cum guzzler, Tupac would kick his bitch ass himself if he were alive FUCK DRAKE FUCK OVO #DRAKEISFAKEDRAKEISWACK
No, you can’t compare those two at all since again, they have nothing in common. Aubrey ain’t on top of shit, he never released any epic diss records, and he’s not selling records like Pac. No sane person in real life uses that blasphemous lie of a name “Drizzaveli.”
lmao is Scott Storch a legend? To me he’s just a pop guy. I remember when Timbaland called him out and Storch responded, and said the N word. People kinda reacted but not really, not like they did with V Nasty and Stitches. Then a few of Timbaland’s proteges got in on it, like Ms. Jade.
But legend, hell no. Madlib, Premier, Alchemist, RJD2. Those are beatmaking legends. Even Dre is just a pop dude.
Well deep down all rappers don’t write all their materials Long Live King Drizzy
premier is a huge drake fan read up fool
This K+ke is expired and makes pop music now plus he molested hi niece which ain’t kool. I also heard his drug habit was so bad he was j**king guys off for $5 in a Miami alley.
Drake’s the greatest ever.
fakest ever, god of ghostwriters #DRAKEISFAKEDRAKEISWACK
Would love to hear some new beats from Scott, always been a great producer
He has one on the last Rick Ross album.. a song featuring chris brown if I’m not mistaking..
Imma pass on this one cause its a bunch of dumb ass white kids commenting about stuff that happened before they were born and they sound stupid af
Your that uncle that molested his niece right you sick bastard I hope they chop your dick off
“We shook Dres punk ass, now hes out of the closet”. Pac was REAl, Drake is soft and gay.
You’re retarded.
Pac was pop as fuck. Wu tang, Boot Camp, Mobb Deep, Gang Starr, Beatnuts, Alkaholiks, Cypress Hill, DITC. Those were REAl. Pac was soft and gay compared to them. Don Killuminati was the only exception, because he knew he was gonna die and was getting everything off his chest beforehand. I fuck with that album. Everything else was wack. California Love compared to 36 chambers is like comparing Kris Kross or Tootsy Roll to Rakim or Kool G Rap. Fuck 2pac.
PAC wasnt a gangsta! He was a ballerina, was a stage dancer, showman for digital underground as a young adult; at that age, Snoop , biggie were in jail for drug possession. U dnt become a gangsta when you start rapping lil bro…have u listened to pac’s first album? How do u go from MLK to fxcking Rookie Williams? Lol..
Can’t wait for Views
Why would someone like you even read this site? You want the ” I like drakes penis in my mouth” site. Where you always a hip hop homo or did you wake up one morning and decide you like penis?
Sh*ts in your head is illegal where I come from homo mc splooge
People who compare 2pac & Drake…. please die
2pac is a ballerina. Ofc the six god is better.
The only thing drake might be better than pac at is acting.. N i wouldnt even say that.. The majority of 2pac material was about real issues.. What real issues does drake talk about?… Haters?.. Fuckin bitches?.. Money?.. Ohh i forgot to be the best rapper these days your shit doesnt need real substance n you dont have to be real about what you preach.. Its fuckin pathetic. Yall callin an actor the best rapper.. Of course if your an actor you can rap and play it off.. You get your shit ghosted than you act it out.. Im from canada n fuck drake.. Leave the legends alone n stop comparing them to corny fake bitches!
