After a public war of words, super-producer Timbaland has reportedly squashed his beef with rival hip-hop composer Scott Storch.
In a recent interview with "The Morning Mess" on Atlanta radio network Star 94, the Virginia native expressed that he has put all that behind him. Tim said that he just met up with Storch, in light of all the rumors surrounding Storch's financial problems, in hopes of offering a helping hand.
"I reached out to Scott just a couple days ago," he said. "Cause all this stuff I been hearing in the press about him, I just called him and said look man we been friends for so long and I'm here for you. All that stuff that I've done I'm sorry, I just know that you need a friend. And I just wanna be there for you cause I know people turn their backs on you."
"I reached out to him and went over to his house and he was almost in tears cause he thought I would be the last person that would call him," he added. "When he went against me he said that that shut a lot of doors for him."
During the candid interview Timbo offered some insight into how the beef started.
"It was all competition but it became personal cause, you know Scott got caught up into the Hollywood lifestyle," he explained. "You know he wants to be this Don and I told Scott, as a friend stop trying to please people because it's gonna backfire on you and people are gonna start talking about you. Don't try to be like me and be up in the press. Don't try to be this superstar because there's only gonna be a handful of superstars. Like I love you. Don't do that I don't wanna see you go down cause a lot of people got down this way...Just be that great producer. Like all these big time producers that are big just behind the scenes. That's who you are."
Timbo also described how the birth of his daughter has made him a more positive person.
"I been blessed this year," he explained. "I'm a whole different type of man. I had a daughter this year, so it's just like my whole life has changed. I want to help people. I don't have no animosity. I never was against Scott. That was my friend. It was more of a competitive thing that I was going against Scott. It was nothing personal."
"I just try to be there for Scott," he added, "cause you know all this negative press I hear about him and everyone like 'I see your man going broke, he doing this' I'm like I don't wanna hear that. I don't wanna hear nothing negative. That's my friend."
The innovative producer, who is up for a Grammy nod this year for his work behind the boards, even went as far as saying that he regretted ever dissing Storch in the first place.
"I definitely regret saying that," he admitted, "because it was always on my conscious because I was so blessed in everything that I was doing and I didn't want God to do something towards me for taking my high power and the position I am in the world and turn it against me. Like 'don't get above yourself' and I feel like I was really getting above myself."

yup

fuck the piano man and his 'financial troubles'.

Timbaland should shut the fuck up, he sounds like an ego-maniac, his head has got way to big. I bet over the years Scott Storch has made just as many hot beats as Timbo has. Dude made one good compilation type album and he thinks he is god or something. Fuck Timbaland. He blew up thanks to JT and Nelly, if he went back to Missy and Mago I would never listen to his shit.

Miami is full of good and expensive narcotics.
And he got a "few" cars. Overall i think he's too dumb to know how to handle his business

Wow....it low key sounds like Timbaland is playin him too.
I was juuust thinkin bout it though...I was like damm, Scott ain't really made a banger in a few years, and most tracks I've heard from him since 06 have been hella average...but he said he had 70 Mil, so he should be good forever. I remember on another site, the producers were arguin for days about how stupid Scott was for buying an 11 million dollar house...then somebody killed that argument by saying, "you all are idiots...the average person who makes 65,000 a year will spend 400,000 on a house...so how is he stupid for spending 11 Mil when he has 70?"
But I guess that conspicuous consumption Mega-Don shit got to him, and maybe he was spendin what he didn't really have. I'm sure he has that plane and those 100,000 cars, but cars depreciate in value like a mafugga...and for someone who has millions to lose millions feels like "trouble," even when they are still doing much better than the average American.

for some reason i really doubt scott is going broke... i am sure he gets tons of royalties each month from all his hits

Storch has been active in the game just as long as Timbaland...his first appearance wasn't on Dre's "2001", like many of ya'll think
