$70 (4)

Once worth $70 million, Scott Storch is trying to financially regroup by filing for bankruptcy.

TMZ reports that Storch claims to have only $3,600 in assets, $100 in cash, a $3000 watch and $500 in clothing. His music companies aren't worth one penny.

In 2014 he says he made $10,000.

At one point Scott was one of the go-to producers in music. He was behind the boards on 50 Cent's "Candy Shop," Fat Joe's "Lean Back," Jadakiss' "U Make Me Wanna,' Chris Brown's "Run It," G-Unit's "Poppin' Them Thangs" and many more.

The 41-year old Long Island, New York native's downfall began in 2003 when he developed a cocaine habit. In 2006 he blew $30 million in six months splurging on drugs, 20 luxury cars, a private jet, an 18,000-square-foot Miami mansion and a yacht

“The cost of the drug didn’t effect my life,” Storch told MTV in 2009. “It was the poor decisions I made, that were so poor financially, that caused me to go into this situation where I was forced to change my lifestyle … forced to change a lot of things. [I had] 15 to 20 cars at all times,” he continued.” That’s not smart. I would take one of 15 half-million-dollar cars I owned and go to the mall and spend that much money. Stupid, stupid stuff. It’s like it didn’t make a difference. They were ego investments. I would have been great with three or four cars! I didn’t need a 117-foot boat.”

Aftermath CEO Dr. Dre and Interscope Geffen A&M chairman Jimmy Iovine are giving $70 million to the University of Southern California. The gift will create the USC Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young Academy for Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation


The academy will focus on arts and entrepreneurship; technology, design and marketability; concept and business platforms and creating a prototype.

Students will be able to interact with guest speakers and lecturers from the arts and entertainment field and have one-on-one faculty mentoring from USC's schools of business, fine arts, engineering and music

25 students will enroll in the academy in the fall of 2014. Additional applicants will be chosen by "a rigorous review process" based on academic achievement and the "proven ability for original thought," according to Rolling Stone.

"The vision and generosity of Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young will profoundly influence the way all of us perceive and experience artistic media," university President C. L. Max Nikias said. "USC provides an extraordinarily rich academic, research and artistic environment. We are committed to encouraging our students to use their intellectual and creative resources to effect change in all segments of society. Our goal is to ensure that the academy is the most collaborative educational program in the world."

Part of the donations will go to financially supporting disadvantaged students to “go on to do something that could potentially change the world,” Dre said.

Video After The Jump

 

Nicki Minaj wanted to do something special for Lil Wayne's 30th birthday so she bought him the one thing he probably didn't already own, a Campagna T-Rex 14R.

 

The three-wheeled motorcycle-car hybrid is a two-seater that weighs 1040 pounds, goes from 0-60 in 3.92 seconds and tops out at 144 miles per hour. It normally retails for around $58,000, but Nicki had Wayne's tricked out to bring the total cost of her gift to $70,000. And of course it had to be in red.

It was her way of saying thanks to the Young Money boss for everything he's done for her career.

50 Cent and Sylvester Stallone have already starting shooting their roles in New Orleans for the $70 million blockbuster "The Tomb." Arnold Schwarzenegger also stars in the action-thriller.

 

The film tells the story of a security expert (Stallone), who finds himself locked up for a crime he didn't commit in one of the high-security prisons he designed. He must find a way to somehow free himself and prove his innocence.
