Scott Storch is hoping to get in the studio with Drake one of these days, but he says his attempts have all been unsuccessful thus far.
The chart-topping producer made an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience earlier this month, where he revealed that he’s been having a hard time getting in touch with the Canadian superstar and he’s not sure why.
“I really want to work with Drake, but I’ve been roadblocked with Drake,” he said. “I know Drake loves me and my production, but for whatever reason, I haven’t been able to get in with him.”

Elsewhere on the episode, Scott Storch detailed how he tried to save DMX‘s life when they were both battling drug addiction.

Reflecting on the time he and X lived together, Storch said: “It was like the blind leading the blind. I’m a coke addict and he’s a crack addict, and I’m trying to help him. I’m like, ‘[Snorts coke] you really need to get clean, man.’ What the fuck? I’m like, ‘You need to go to rehab.’
“So I convince him to avoid a jail sentencing for a charge he had or whatever. He went to rehab and was getting his shit together at a place where I had gone, but it didn’t really work for me. I had him there, I really did care about him, I wanted him off that shit. That was a faster suicide than I was even on.”
Storch said DMX later broke out of the facility and was subsequently sent back to jail, despite the producer’s attempts to convince the owner of the rehab center to let him return.
Years later, Storch heard of the rapper’s health problems, which included the incurable lung condition emphysema, and stepped in again.

Describing X as “in bad shape” and “one rock away from death,” the Grammy-nominated musician said he made plans to book the Ruff Ryder into his rehab facility in Studio City, California.
“We put him on a private plane to Washington to do a detox. He went through the whole detox, and the plan was to leave the detox and come to our facility, inpatient, and do rehab,” he explained.
“He never made it back on the plane to head back, and we never saw him again. That was me trying to save a man’s life that I really loved. He was such a special guy.”

DMX would pass away in April 2021 at the age of 50 after suffering a heart attack brought on by a drug overdose.
