Scott Storch has hit out at The Roots, claiming the group were “haters” after he began working with Dr. Dre.
Storch, who was a member of the Philadelphia rap group between 1993 and 1995 and made contributions to several albums afterwards, discussed his history with Questlove and co with controversial podcaster Patrick Bet-David.
The producer explained: “I started in The Roots and did a lot of the stuff for them, very underappreciated. I was the guy who, again, came up with a lot of the nucleus of what that shit was. And I left the group and was told that I was, like, the Pete Best of The Roots. You know, Pete Best is the guy that quit The Beatles.”
