Timbaland Arrested in German Bar Brawl

Music producer Timbaland was busted by German cops on Sunday who said he and members of his posse sent a bar patron to the hospital.

TMZ obtained photos taken in Cologne, Germany, where Timbaland and his friends allegedly attacked a man outside Hotel Intercontinental late Sunday night after a Justin Timberlake concert. The argument allegedly started when a man named Robert F became visibly upset over his girlfriend talking to Timbaland. According to German reports, Timbaland then attacked the patron, "Robert F," after Robert called him the N word. The fight then moved moved from the lobby bar to the street in front of the hotel.

Timbaland and two others allegedly beat up Robert, which sent him to the hospital by ambulance, and sent Timba to the slammer. Timbaland was released on 750 € (about $1,000) bail early Monday morning. According to cops, the matter is still under investigation.

16. Dont get me wrong ... what the guy did was totally wrong and he kinda earned it.

But i think he didnt think it would end that way. While the N word is a pretty bad derogative in Germany its by no way such a bad bad bad word as it is in the US.

I guess he wanted to make clear that he should piss off, used the cool word he learned from rap songs he heard and got beaten up for that without knowing why exactly ...

Still his fault. But dont start the "Germany is a Neo Nazi Country" comments ...

18. The N word is one the most dispicable words ever! So ugly and hateful. I dont know if I would have tried to knock that ignoramous's head off his shoulder, but so be it.

Now Tim is probably looking at some sort of lawsuit from this peace of $hit.

Tim really should have kept his anger under control.

19. 3 people against one??



3 people against one?


Just like a no talent rapper to beat up some guy with the help of two of his freinds.

Thats 3 against one. What a coward! He has to have his posse help him beat somebody up.
I would have called him a name too if he was talking to my chick.

Loserr! tell him to get his own chicks!

What a poser!

20. Sooo if it's that despicable, why do african americans call eachother that ?? You dont see hispanic's calling each other bean dip, or loco then beating up the next guy who comes along cause he called him the same thing his buddy just called him....
Unfortunately it doesnt make sense to me. Too many people like to play that card, and it really pisses me off. Look at wesly snipes now he is sayin no way I'm being targeted cause I'm black !! Nooooo dude, you are being targeted cause you ripped off the IRS. GET IT !!!!!

21. Dude - hello... What do you expect to happen when you call a black person that? Anyone ignorant enough to still call black people that SHOULD get a beat down! Deal with your slut of a girlfriend - not a group of guys just waiting to beat you down! I'm white and still can't believe the way people treat other ethnicities. I also thought Europe was pretty ahead of the curve when it came to racism...

22. I gotta say two things: I gotta give props to Timbaland for beating that guy's ass for using the N word... although that probably did nothing to change that guy's racist views however. I'm just sayin'...

23. your turn nelly.

24. I bet money that when or if the whole story really comes out that the white dude didn't even use the N Word. I know Tim and that dude hates white people yo. Sorry if the truth hurts. If U black & paid and still jumpin' on people over a word then U need some serious help.

25. So did Timbaland need two other guys to help him fight this one guy? what a coward, afraid to take a whupping all by himself............ The guy probably never even called him anything, probably just wanted his girlfriend to be left alone.

26. If they don't want to be called n***** then why do they use it in their music??

If Timbulla is such a bada ss then why did he need two of his freinds to help?

These guys are nothing but cowards!!

27. Me..

I dont know why African Americans use the word N@gga in their music. I don't use the word EVER so, I really don know. But remember, not ALL of them use the word. And yes it is a dispicable ugly word, but Timbaland should have kept his composure. I think certain groups expect African Americans to act like animals, and some do. I live outside of Philadelphia and black people are killing each other. But not all blacks are animals, crack dealers, and violent, just like all white people aren't child molesters and tax evasionists (is that a word?) LOL..

28. I love his music.

BUT HOW CAN ANYONE FIGHT WITH THEIR PANTS LIKE THAT?

29. Great..Tyler surfaces once again to promote his peace and love and his links to his pathetic website. This site has turned into Advertising Central or more appropriately the remoras that like to attach themselves to the shark. All you asshats with your websites and spam and viruses for the LOVE OF GOD...give us a break please!!!

30. Too bad money can't buy class, huh Timbaland? Once a thug, always a thug. Couldn't beat him up by yourself, could you? Had to get your thugs/goons to help. He called you a name, oh no! I'm surprised you didn't just kill him for disrespecting you like that. Good grief! Hey "Robert F."...sue his ass right back to the ghetto where he obviously belongs.
