Timbaland is leading an onslaught of criticism against a new TV movie about late singer Aaliyah.
The music producer posted a video on Instagram describing Aaliyah: The Princess of R&B as "bulls**t" and the reason why "people should never remake movies".
Timbaland, 42, had worked extensively with the US star before her death in a 2001 plane crash aged just 22 and took issue with her portrayal in the film.
One message warned the film's producers that they will "feel [his] wrath tomorrow morning" and sure enough, the next day a series of mocking memes appeared on his Instagram.
