The rise and fall of Scott Storch has been well-documented ever since he declared bankruptcy in June 2015 after blowing through nearly $70 million in earnings on a cocaine addiction. He is attempting to bounce back and revive his career, however two men Brad and Seth Cohen, who are bankrolling Storch's comeback to the tune of at least $1 million are suing the super producer. They claim he "is back to his old ways and is not someone to trust with any monies."
According to the complaint obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, Seth and Brad Cohen provided Storch a weekly salary, a Rolls-Royce Ghost and a rental house in Parkland, Florida. After the June bankruptcy they were convinced that Storch "was once again ready to prove himself as a worthy record producer and use his deep connections in the music industry to make money for the three of them."
However they claim nothing has changed for the producer. The complaint also alleges that a woman named Florence Mirsky has attempted to "pry" the producer away from the Cohens and advised him not to deal with his current partners.
"Based on Storch's (a) history of drug use, including evidence of recent abuse; (b) prior squandering of monies received from providing services in the music industry; (c) overt affiliation with Mirsky that has a real threat of diverting monies actually owed to CCS; and (d) sincere concern that CCS will otherwise not be able to collect monies to repay the significant contributions provided by B. Cohen and S. Cohen, an injunction and additional remedies in equity are necessary under the circumstances," alleges the complaint.
Storch's lawyer Richard Wolfe thinks very little of the lawsuit, calling it nonsense. He alleges that the lawsuit uses forged documents and was filed in violation of federal law.
Scott Storch earned his fortune making hits like Fat Joe "Lean Back," 50 Cent "Candy Shop" and Beyoncé "Me Myself And I." Listen to his latest creation below.
