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.

12351608661?profile=original

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.”

Vince Staples recently stopped by Los Angeles radio station Power 106 to chop it up on The Cruz Show.

One of the topics he addressed was record sales and explained why he believes Drake, Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole continue to move units while the hip hop genre as a whole remains in a slump.

12351615087?profile=original

"If you a kid, 15, 16-years old," Staples says, "and you only got $20 that you probably got from your mom and you done had it for a minute, and you gotta pick between buying a CD or doing something that, probably getting some food or getting some weed, 'cause that's what the kids like to do nowadays, what they gonna pick? Because the music ain't really helping them in a sense of what we're saying and what we're doing. It's just hindering them. So why would they spend they last on that? It's not really a lot of expendable income in today's society in general. So what do we expect for these kids to have? I feel like if you have something that they feel like affects them or is speaking for them, it's always gonna do well. You look at the J Coles, the Kendricks, those are the people selling the most records. Drake, those are the people that are really the most transparent with their music."

Check out the full interview below.

Peter Tonstad's stint as interim CEO of Jay Z's Tidal streaming service lasted less than three months. Tonstand accepted the position after former CEO Andy Chen resigned in mid-April.

The timing of Tonstad's exit is odd given the fact that he was supposed to hold the position until a permanent CEO was named. The company is still in search of that replacement.

The Wall Street Journal reports that Tidal "will be run by executives in New York and Oslo until a new chief is in place."

Peter Tonsted

“We are thankful to Peter for stepping in as interim CEO and wish him the best for the future," a Tidal official said in a statement.

When reached Tonstad said "the only thing I can confirm is that I have resigned."

Video After The Jump

CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — For years, South Carolina lawmakers refused to revisit the Confederate flag on Statehouse grounds, saying the law that took it off the dome was a bipartisan compromise, and renewing the debate would unnecessarily expose divisive wounds.

12351609866?profile=original

But opinions changed within five days of the massacre of nine people at a historic black church in Charleston, as a growing tide of Republicans joined the call to remove the battle flag from a Confederate monument in front of the Statehouse and put it in a museum.

460x.jpg

On Monday, Gov. Nikki Haley did what a previous Republican governor found to be political suicide. Herself a Republican, she not only called for the flag's removal but pledged to call legislators back to Columbia if they don't deal with it in a special session in the next few weeks. Just hours before they return to work Tuesday, a rally to bring the flag down will be held outside the Statehouse.

Haley's announcement came days after authorities charged Dylann Storm Roof, 21, with murder. The white man appeared in photos holding Confederate flags and burning or desecrating U.S. flags, and purportedly wrote of fomenting racial violence.

Haley has for years deflected questions about the flag. But she said Monday she was moved by the outpouring of love and forgiveness that followed the "true hate" of the crime. She noted her entire family attended Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal on Sunday, when the church reopened its doors.

"My children saw what true faith looks like. My children saw that true hate can never, never triumph over true love. My children saw the heart and soul of South Carolina start to mend," she said.

She stressed that, for many South Carolinians, the flag still represents noble traditions of heritage and duty, but for many others, it is a "deeply offensive symbol of a brutally oppressive past."

"The hate-filled murderer who massacred our brothers and sisters in Charleston has a sick and twisted view of the flag. In no way does he reflect the people in our state who respect, and in many ways, revere it," she said.

The governor's declarations sparked action in other arenas as well Monday: Mississippi House Speaker Philip Gunn called for the Confederate emblem to be removed from the state flag, becoming the first top-tier Republican to do so.

In Tennessee, both Democrats and Republicans called for the removal of a bust of Confederate general and early Ku Klux Klan leader Nathan Bedford Forrest from an alcove outside the Senate's chambers.

And Wal-Mart announced Monday that it is removing any items from its store shelves and website that feature the Confederate flag.

Removing the flag in South Carolina won't be easy, despite the shifting sentiment.

Making any changes to the banner requires a two-thirds supermajority in both chambers under the terms of the 2000 deal that moved a square version of the flag to a monument to Confederate soldiers out front.

Legislators return to Columbia on Tuesday for what was supposed to be the end of a special session to approve a state budget. Just adding the flag to the agenda will take two-thirds approval by both chambers.

While those standing behind Haley included state and federal Republican officeholders, the top GOP leaders of the Legislature were absent.

But state GOP Chairman Matt Moore said the Republican legislative leaders he's talked with are committed to the flag coming down.

"I think both parties are united that it should be done. The legislative process will obviously be a challenge given the rules of both chambers, but with enough political will anything can be done," he said. "There is a silent majority of South Carolinians who strongly believe we can have a better future without the flag being on Statehouse grounds."

The biggest questions remaining may be how and when legislators take up the issue.

They could take up a resolution Tuesday allowing them to add the issue to their special session. But they are unlikely to begin debating a bill to take the flag down until July — after the funerals — when they return to decide whether to override Haley's budget vetoes.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Larry Martin said he believes it's both impractical and disrespectful to publicly debate the topic this week.

"I prefer us to not do that out of respect for the services that will be held," said Martin, R-Pickens.

He said there's a feeling among legislators to reciprocate the "gracious outpouring of folks from Charleston."

The last governor who called for the flag's removal, Republican David Beasley, was hounded out of office in 1998 by the Sons of Confederate Veterans. The group's influence also doomed his front-running Senate campaign for the seat won by Republican Jim DeMint.

"Do not associate the cowardly actions of a racist to our Confederate Banner," the group's South Carolina commander, Leland Summers, said in a statement. "There is absolutely no link between The Charleston Massacre and The Confederate Memorial Banner. Don't try to create one."

As recently as November 2014, a poll of 852 people by Winthrop University found 42 percent of South Carolina residents strongly believed the flag should stay, while only 26 percent strongly believed it should be removed.

But South Carolina's population is slowly becoming more diverse, and more exposed to people from outside the state. The pollster, Scott Huffman, predicts that his August 2015 survey will show that people who didn't have strong feelings before "will have flipped and now prefer it to come down."

Only a few months have passed since Haley, an Indian-American, described an opponent's rally to bring down the flag as a campaign stunt. She claimed last year that businesses weren't bothered despite continuing boycott demands by black groups.

"We really fixed all that," she said, with her election as the state's first female and first minority governor, and the election of Scott as the South's first black U.S. senator since Reconstruction.

The governor's announcement came as civil rights groups planned days of marches and protests against the Confederate flag that Roof embraced.

"The flag got appropriated by hate groups. We can't put it in a public place where it can give any oxygen to hate-filled people," said Charleston Mayor Joseph P. Riley Jr., a Democrat.

The Confederate battle flag was placed atop the Statehouse dome in the 1960s as an official protest of the civil rights movement. After mass protests, it was moved to the grounds in 2000, as part of a compromise between a group of black lawmakers and the Republicans who have controlled South Carolina since 2001.

That deal kept it flying high since the shooting, even as state and U.S. flags were lowered to honor the victims. It also means that when thousands of mourners honor Emanuel's slain senior pastor, state Sen. Clementa Pinckney, they will likely see the Confederate flag before or after filing past his coffin in the Statehouse.

The White House said President Barack Obama respects the state of South Carolina's authority to decide the issue, but believes the flag belongs in a museum. Obama knew Pinckney personally, and plans to deliver his eulogy in Charleston on Friday.

Sean Combs a.k.a. Puff Daddy a.k.a. Diddy was arrested on the campus of UCLA is Los Angeles, Monday, June 22.

The Bad Boy Records CEO attacked the school's football Strength and Conditioning coach Sal Alosi with a kettlebell after his son Justin Combs was yelled at.

Diddy was arrested and charged with felony assault.

G-Unit Records mogul 50 Cent couldn't help taking a couple of jabs at Diddy's predicament in an ongoing contest between Ciroc and 50's Effen Vodka.

Video After The Jump

Diddy is cooling his heels in a UCLA campus jail after letting his temper get the best of him while watching his son, Justin Combs, football practice.

TMZ reports that Diddy, real name Sean Combs, got angry when he saw a coach yelling at Justin during a strength and conditioning drill.

12351604271?profile=original

After practice Puffy confronted Strength and Conditioning Coach Sal Alosi while the coach was on a phone call. Alosi told the Bad Boy Records CEO to hold on. Instead of waiting for Alosi to finish his call Diddy picked up a kettlebell and swung it at the coach.

12351603497?profile=original

Luckily for all parties involved, the business mogul missed because a witness claims that if he had connected, Alosi would be dead.

The entire incident was caught on tape, according to TMZ's report.

Head Coach Jim Mora called this an "unfortunate incident for all parties involved" -- and said they would let the legal process run its course.

**UPDATE** June 23

Diddy is out of jail after posting bail of $50,000 on Monday night, June 22. However, he and his lawyers now have a lot of work to do 

The Los Angeles Times reports that authorities hit the business mogul with multiple charges including three counts of assault with a deadly weapon, one count of making terrorist threats and one count of battery.

12351604859?profile=original

**UPDATE** June 24

Diddy may have caught a huge break in the case.

TMZ reports that the UCLA coaching staff held a meeting and decided they don't want to press charges and want police to drop the case.

There is a chance the assistants who were allegedly threatened by Puffy could file charges, but that doesn't appear likely.

Local authorities told TMZ that they will still forward the case to L.A. County D.A. for felony review next week. There is video of the incident and charges could still be filed.

We should find out soon if Diddy will face any punishment.
