Tuesday, August 20, renowned producer Scott Storch was robbed at gunpoint while leaving a studio in New York City. Though details on the situation were murky, it definitely sounded like a set up of some sort. The 39-year-old recently sat with MTV’s Sway Calloway to discuss how everything went down.

“I was coming out of the studio around like seven in the morning and just unexpectedly, two 7-foot thugs came out of nowhere and bam, they got me… gunpoint, yeah,” Storch recalled. ” They said give it up or they was gonna shoot and had the gun like pressed up on me and everything. It was crazy.”

Storch, a veteran in the game, says these situations aren’t uncommon when an award show is in town. With the MTV’s VMAs invading Brooklyn this Sunday (August 25) artists may want to beef up their security. Take it from the former Roots keyboard player.
