SCOTT STORCH SURFACES

So after getting hit with grand theft auto, producer Scott Storch has surfaced and revealed that his recent problems have all been the result of a cocaine addicion.

“I found myself slipping a little bit,” he said with a very anxious look on his face. “I got involved in doing drugs. I had to get myself into recovery. Being in the life that I was living — very fast-moving, option to do anything you want, go anywhere you wanna go — it definitely takes its toll on you, and you lose your concept of reality. I had to get it under control. I had to take it back to the beginning and back to the Hit Factory, where I made a lot of my hits.

“Just taking it day by day,” the producer said of his life now. “I haven’t won the war. It’s not like something you can just fix and it’s just gone. Addiction is a disease, and I have to constantly battle it. I feel so much better and have more clarity, especially in the studio. It’s cool. It’s been a really productive period. … With the help of my publisher TVT, I’ve had the chance to woodshed and come up with a whole new vibe. I’m very happy right now.”
