Scott Storch and Dr Dre have the kind of working relationship you can't manufacture, it just works. When the two of them get together in a studio magic happens.
Which is why when Dre placed a call into Scott a few months ago to come help him finish the 'Detox' album there was no hesitation on Scott's part.
The two super producers have knocked out quite a few joints already including the lead single for the album titled "Under Pressure" which features Jay-Z.
"I think people will be pleasantly surprised when they hear it," Scott says of "Under Pressure".
"It's definitely a departure from the stuff Dre has done in the past, or even the stuff Dre and I have done in the past."
Scott assures the album will finally see the light of day this year. He said it's three songs away from being finished.
He also talks about their recording process and why it taken so long to get the album right.
"When we make tracks, we always second guess like 'does that sound like the old sh*t?' We don't wanna do that, we wanna always keep it new and make that next thing," Scott says. "That's why a lot of fire joints get scrapped. We have to always try and be pioneers."

It took police investigators several months, but they finally think they have solved a horrific murder case in Conyers, Georgia.
Twin sisters Tasmiyah and Jasmiyah Whitehead have been arrested for the murder of their own mother.
Jarmecca “Nikki” Whitehead, 34 was killed January 13,2010 after being brutally stabbed and beaten.
The twins, 15 years old at the time of the murder, initially told police they found their mother dead after arriving home from school, then ran out into the street to flag down help.
Before her murder, the mom had confided to neighbor Angela Avery she had fear of her daughters. "The mother was kind of afraid that something like that might happen," Avery told CBS Atlanta.
"I can't explain why because the mother didn't do a lot of talking, but she did have that particular fear. Yes, she did."
Evidence found at the crime scene was processed by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, linking the girls to the scene leading to their arrest.
Police say the twins will be charged as adults.

"And if they hate, just let em hate and watch the money pile up"
50 Cent spoke on it, now Wacka Flocka Flame is starting to experience it.
With a runaway smash hit in 'O Let's Do It', an affiliation with one of the hottest crews, Gucci Mane's Brick Squad, the money is piling up, and so are his haters.
At a recent video shoot, he was confronted by crips and at a subsequent concert, bottles were thrown on stage while he tried to perform.
Wacka tries to shrug it off saying, "I'd be mad as hell too if my girl's p**** wet over another n*gga."
Nevertheless, the hate is still there and it's definitely something the Georgia rapper is going to have to deal with.
In addressing the the crip confrontation, Wacka says there were too many police and little kids there for him to risk violating his probation.
With one foot still in the streets and the other standing on the stage of success it remains to be seen if Wacka can walk that fine line and stay out of the trouble that seems to be following him.

Spanish matador Julio Aparicio needed two operations after he was horrifically gored through the throat during a bullfight in Madrid.
The half-ton bull, called Opiparo, struck after Julio Aparicio lost his footing and stumbled while carrying out a pass with is red cape in a packed Las Ventas bullring.
One of the animal's horns tore into his throat and punched through the bottom of his mouth as the crowd screamed in horror at the bullfight last night.
The force of the impact lifted the matador into the air, puncturing his tongue and fracturing his jawbone, before the bull threw him to the sand.
Fellow matadors dashed to the rescue and managed to distract the bull so medics could get to Mr Aparicio.
The 41-year-old managed to struggle to his feet, but collapsed with blood pouring down his neck and had to be carried from the ring.
He had an emergency one-hour operation in the Las Ventas medical centre, before being transfered to the October 12 Hospital in Madrid, where doctors performed an emergency tracheotomy and worked to reconstruct his jaw, tongue and the roof of his mouth during a six-hour operation
A spokesman for the hospital said: 'He remains in the intensive care unit of the hospital, has regained consciousness and his vital signs are stable.'
His father, also called Julio Aparicio, said there were no complications during the surgery.
He said: 'It was a serious goring. Almost his entire mouth was destroyed.
'It's too early to talk of recovery, we must wait and see.'
The injury happened as Mr Aparicio was attempting the faena, a series of passes in which he uses his cape and sword before delivering the death blow - or estocada.
Mr Aparicio, from Seville, comes from a well-known family of matadors. He is in a grave condition in hospital.
Evening bullfights are watched by sell-out crowds at the 25,000 seat Las Ventas bullring and are broadcast live on cable television.
Six bulls are killed in each bullfight
It is not known what has happened to the bull.

Rasheeda’s sorority-styled "Bed Rock Remix" featuring Kandi, Diamond, Lola Monroe and Antonia “Toya” Johnson caught many people off guard after its late April release. For one, it was an unlikely adaptation, but more so, the song debuted Lil Wayne’s famed-ex-wife-turned-reality-star, Toya rhyming a decent 16. Expect more where that came from.
“I’mma try it and test it out. A mixtape or album depends on how this one goes by myself,” says Toya. “I always had a little urge to rap, but never really wanted to because sometimes it doesn’t come off lady like. Then of course Wayne is a rapper so I thought people would be like, ‘Oh she’s trying to rap because Wayne rap.’ So I was like let me just play around with something.”
“It’s crazy because now that I did a little bit of that song everybody’s been coming to me like, ‘Oh can we hear something else? Your accent is so cute. You sound so cute rapping.’ I’m like wow.” As a platinum-selling rapper, Wayne found his ex’s flow a bit more amusing than impressive. “Wayne laughed at me on the “Bed Rock Remix”. That’s what men do. They’re never going to tell you you’re good or to keep going with it. You know their slick side.”
Toya also explains that her and Wayne rarely if ever, discuss music. They’re relationship revolves strictly around shared 11-year-old daughter, Reginae. The newfound rapper cleared the air about reports stating that an mp3 player had been found within Rikers Island, intended for Wayne.
“All of that stuff about MP3s and cell phones… that’s not true. I don’t know where that stuff comes from,” says Toya. “Yes, I did confirm with him. He doesn’t know where any of this is coming from. Wayne doesn’t entertain that. But he’s doing great.” - VIBE
I don’t know why Toya is saying that Riker’s Island authorities never found an MP3 Player in Wayne’s cell when Weezy has admitted that it is true 
Kevin Rudolf’s upcoming album To The Sky will be hitting stores the same day as Drake’s debut album Thank Me Later – June 15th! We have already heard the first single from the album, “I Made It” aka “Cash Money Heroes”, and now I have found out that Weezy’s and Kevin’s collaboration record “Spit In Your Face“, will be featured on his album too.
I’m not sure what has gone on with this track, because I thought it was going to be on Wayne’s Rebirth album… so I’m guessing there will be some changes to the final version when it drops!

Tila Tequila is looking to Dr Drew Pinsky to cure a few of her many ailments.
TMZ is reporting the 'Shot At Love' star has signed up for the new season of 'Celebrity Rehab'. Tila has done a lot of wacky things in the last year including announcing she would be a surrogate mom for her own brother. So it's unclear if she's seeking help for a chemical dependency or mental issue.
Whatever the case, she is sure to make the VH1 show interesting.

Jay-Z and Cleveland Cavaliers basketball star Lebron James are close friends which might prove to be a deciding factor in where James plays basketball next year.
Jay-Z is a New York Knicks fan and also a minority owner in the New Jersey Nets. That presents a very real possibility James could wind up with either team according to people in the know.
Sonny Vaccaro who was responsible for Michael Jordon signing to Nike and Kobe Bryant to Adidas told the New York Post that Jay-Z is part of James' inner circle.
"I don't think the Nets would be involved without Jay-Z," Vaccaro told The Post. "LeBron and Jay-Z is something that is inseparable and you almost have to include that in the equation. I think he will be consulted. It's a very good relationship. Jay-Z was LeBron before LeBron was LeBron. That's the respect LeBron shows him."
Vaccaro has known Lebron since the ninth grade so he may be onto something.
Another confidential NBA source told The Post, "If you ask me who the most important person in this is besides blood, I'd say Jay-Z. That helps the Nets, but Jay-Z will understand it as a friend if he doesn't come. But I think (Jay-Z) helps the Knicks a lot more than Chicago."
Before you dismiss the Nets as a possible destination for King James consider this. They will be moving to a brand new stadium in Brooklyn for the 2011-2012 season. They also have a very deep pocketed new owner in Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov.
Prokhorov seemed very confident when he spoke with the New York Daily News a few days ago. He told the paper he plans to go after free agents like Dwayne Wade and Lebron.
When asked how he would accomplish that, he said "I have my own secrets."
I would bet big money that Jay-Z is one of those secrets.
