Mega-producer Scott Storch recently put his yacht on the market via ebay, fueling rumors that his estate is in financial distress.
(http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tmz.com/media/2008/03/031308_storch.jpg)
According to TMZ, Storch allegedly paid $20 million on the boat and is now hocking it on ebay for $600,000. On the ebay posting it says the reason for the rock bottom asking price is because the "owner bought her and got short on money."
Though the producer rakes in millions every year and has made beats for the likes of Lil' Wayne, Fat Joe, 50 Cent, Beyonce and other hit-making artists, this isn't the first time his finances have come into question.
Back in January of '06, Storch's baby's mom, Dalene Daniel, took him to court, claiming he was two months behind on $7,500 a month child support payments. She also said the producer was "habitually late" in paying child support, and has bounced checks.
Around the same time, The New York Post printed a story saying Storch owed $435,602 in back taxes on his house in Miami and that he also never paid for a $7,500 painting he had on display in his home, prompting the Miami gallery owner to reclaim the art.
At that time, Forbes placed Storch's income at $17 million for the year, or $1.4 million a month.

^^pretty Awful!!
Sad to see him do this, but if it's anything to do with his extravangant sending then,he should ahve seen this coming!!
One thing i don't understand,all those beats he made for various artist, does he receivie royalty checks for them, if the said track is played on the radio??
or is he only paid for the production of the track??
-
sucks 4 him

its all about what's written on the contracts...
i think if he works with a BIG artist maybe he asks less money but he comes to an agreement to have some royalties...
-
^^Oh right..yeah it's all in the contract!..Pretty awful though!!
Thanks!

A 20 million dollar boat? Riiiiight... ::)

Storch is probably the least creative mainstream producer out their. Every beat sounds nearly the same with the same instrument. He shoulda kept to doing the bass for Dre. Every Storch beat is a 4 second loop of the same damn simple thing. He is a nobody compared to Timbaland.
-
ima put a bid in of a pound.
-
wow.
how can people be so careless with money? $20,000,000 is enough to live the rest of your life more than comfortably, if youre smart...shit $1,000,000 is enough, again, if youre smart wit it.

Nigga shouldn't be spending all that cash on goofy ass sunglasses. He looks like Amelia Earhart in that picture with those stupid goggles.

lmao,true..im sorry but if you caked up like that and blow it mc hammer style i have zero sympathy for you.

Timbo > Storch? Pfft I hope your joking. Timbaland can influence an entire album (Furtado's project, Shock Value) Storch does like 1 track, and usually their not very good. He's a one instrument producer. He loops every beat. It's very uncreative. Not to mention Timbaland has had way more success across the board. Storch is like Dre these days, selectively releases beats, and most suck. Storch got some quality beats, like the ones you mention, and "The Streets", for example. But Timbaland is in a different league.

^^^
sorry dude, you have absolutely no idea what your talking about
without comparing the 2 (storch/timbaland) i don't think you know about hip hop Production in any way
Scott storch is a keyboard player so he knows how to play on up beats and down beats, he's studied and was mentored under the whole aftermath records staff Dr Dre included
i dont think you understand about tonal changes, the chords he plays, the bridges on R n B tracks he freaks and the implementation on drums on the beginning and ending of 16 measure sets or the instrumentation on his choruses
NO OFFENSE, BUT GO DO YOUR HOMEWORK.

^ You're right, I don't know. But, I'm just saying, from someone who has been listening to these guys for years, I prefer Timbaland. Listen to a Timbaland track from the 90's, and an early Storch track, and listen to these guys today. IMO Timbaland has progressed further. I ain't doubting Storch has some amazing tracks, but it seems to over-uses some samples, like those horns he uses. Timbaland seems like a more creative producer and seems to use a larger variety of elements. When you hear a Storch beat, you know it's him. But compare the stuff he gave to Nelly Furtado, and the stuff he did for 50 Cent or the Game. Timbaland can produce for any artist and many different genres. Storch just does rap.
I don't like how Storch does his business. He makes a beat, and sells it to an artist. Theirs no cohesion between the two. Timbaland does collaborations. Timbaland, artist, in a studio, doing the beat, the lyrics, matching the two together. It results in a better product.

Yeah sorry, you know, it's like ice cream. You only like one flavor. Every Timbo beat is different and fits better to the artist, as usually he has some vocals on a lot of tracks.
A producers talent is determined by the ability to produce an album. Any nobody can make a beat and sell it to some random rapper. It takes a producer to create an entire album. Look at their discographies. What album has Storch done? Nothing, a few mixtapes maybe. Just in the last few years, Timbo produced Furtado, Timberlake, and his own studio album. What did they sell, 8 million in the US? He produced those almost top to bottom. Storch is a good beat maker, but he hasn't really produced anything. He mails the beat, cashes the check. Boring. That isn't production.

You first stated that you weren't feeling his production because it lacks creativity. Then it changes to 'he can't produce an entire album', therefore, he ain't as dope as Timbo??...Man, that's just hatin', straight up ! lol...ex. Scott Storch/Chris Brown...In '05, did Storch just mail him the beat? No, they worked on the album together in the studio, making it a Collaboration ! Him & Stacee Adamz, Collab...Him & Christina Aguilera, Collab...When i listen to a Storch track, yeh i know it's him because he has his own style and i've also studied his sound. If his beat were to sound any different than a typical Storch track, i bet then you'd accuse him of biting.

Timbo > Storch

damn veron, slr, hella big house, phantom ...cant believe that he owns all that shit. dayumn.

I prefer listening to Gangsta Rap so i go with Storch > Timbo...I didn't know we had so many Pop fans on this board :D

Yeah well, a good "pop" album is a lot better then listening to Fat Joe on a Storch beat, or Candy Shop, or any one of those other tracks. Timbo ain't a pop producer, but he does different things. I wouldn't call Madonna or Nelly Furtado pop exactly.
-
How the hell can you compare Scott Stortch with his limitted variery of beats with the genius of Timbaland, who actually changed the game with his production.... The truth is, and I might get jumped by Dre groupies for this, that right now in the last few years, Timbaland >>>>>>> Dr. Dre. I liked what that guy here said, comparing Dre and Stortch.
-
timbaland doesnt do all of his beats, u do know that right?? he has ppl playing stuff for him like danja hands on the keys

Dude, I 100% agree. In the last 3 years, Timbaland's been the best producer in the game. Dr.Dre has release very mediocre beats for the longest while.
timbaland doesnt do all of his beats, u do know that right?? he has ppl playing stuff for him like danja hands on the keys
Uhh No shit. No producer does all the instruments or samples. That's not what a producer does. A producer takes samples from a variety of other people, and puts it together. People like Dre and Timbo have a team of people working for them.
By your logic, Dre didn't make the beat for "Still DRE" since Storch did the bass. Or Quik never technically made any beat, since everything is a sample. That's what producing is, sampling original or unoriginal sources.
-
^Storch was on the keys for that one, he came up with that melody. Dre just did the drums. Didn't Timbo jack beats in the past ?? Who knows how many he stole.

dollar a day coke ugly sunglasses habit
-
This i know king. lol i see you've been doing your homework :)
-
they both suck at making hip hop beats imo, they should take lessons from pete rock and primo, those men started making beats with 2 turntables and a mothafuckin sampling machine, you listen to this shit and it's timeless music. The next timbo beat will sound like the previous one with a subtle variation and him still making the little uhh noise in the background, and storch his music is at his image, all over the top, ugly, and fake as hell.

thats not a 20 million dollar yacht...seriously IF YOU PAYED 20 million...u wouldnt ask for atleast 5 mil? thats enough to pay what u owe, and put some away in the bank to make almost 300,000 a year based just off that...but all he wants is 600,000? Be real people...you wouldn't want 600,000 for a boat worth 20 million.

^Did someone here place a bid?? :o

yup. 2 dollars
