Fortunately for the singer, authorities were able to recover his red 2013 Bentley shortly after the incident.
Details + mugshot below…
Robert Unrico McFarland, 18, was arrested Tuesday evening shortly after the carjacking.
Police said he was one of two armed robbers who approached singer Bobby V. (real name Robert Wilson) — after he parked a red 2013 Bentley in a lot outside the Hot Beats Recording Studio at 1200 Spring Street Tuesday night.
Wilson complied with the men and they drove away in the car.
According to police spokesman Greg Lyon, an off-duty lieutenant heard a call over police radio about the incident and found the luxury car abandoned at the nearby Arts Center MARTA station.
Witnesses identified McFarland as a suspect and he was taken into custody. He faces several charges including aggravated assault, armed robbery, hijacking a motor vehicle, and possession of a firearm during commission of a felony.
Bobby V is best known for his 2005 hit “Slow Down,” and other notable tunes such as “Lights Down Low,” “Come Touch Me” and “One Girl To Love.”
The 2nd suspect is still at large and police are asking anyone with information on the robbery to call (404) 658-6636 or Crime Stoppers at (404) 577-8477. Callers may remain anonymous and could be eligible for a reward of up to $2000. (source)
Am I the only one wondering why Bobby V has a 2013 Bentley?

I see his Bentley, but where are the hit records?
There are alot of other ways to make money in the music industry besides selling records
While that is true, I am skeptical as well. He isn’t exactly a lyrical genius as shown by his own work. I don’t even know if he finished school because he was still at Clark Atlanta when I left in 2005.
I read somewhere that’s he’s been doing a lot of song writing for a lot of people getting that Neo money!……….hmmm? Guess that’s where it came from. Does DTP even exist as a label anymore?
Prob rented…. I digress
Does it matter? Rented or not where’s yours?
He is probably a good money saver….unlike most other artist. IJS
leased!
Maybe he’s related to sharee and pretending runs in the family.
LOL!
DEAD
OMG….pahahahahahaha…while reading the article all I kept thinking was a 2013 Bentley??? Bobby V???? Really???
LMAO me too!
LOL…that is the first thing that came to mind…oh well, good for little ol’ bobby v
Whether he is renting this car or has bought it, he is riding in it and we are not…lol I’m glad his life was spared though and he was able to recover the car, many people don’t have this good of an outcome in those bad situations. May God continue to bless him and ALL of us..
Who cares why and how he has a Bentley? Stop counting folks cash,count your own..Don’t nobody know what that man got goin on, except those that matter #HATERS
Why was he driving a Bentley in a high risk neighborhood? I was asking that myself.
Girl! I said the same thing! Sounds staged so “somebody” could get their name in the press again if you ask me…#side-eye
You are fucking dimwitted if you think he would stage getting carjacked at GUNPOINT.
yes he would
LOL@Kena…that looks like a real mugshot tho lol
j/s does he not travel with body guards?? or even a driver for his "2013" Bentley!!!
LOL…you don’t need bodyguards…when most people don’t even know who you are..js
But, You’d think one would have a run errands/everyday car or truck. Downtown(some parts) and some other areas are probably not the place to show off the Bentley.
People tryin to eat out here…hey, just saying.:)
Shut up logic and sense..you really sound dumb
Sexduces…I think YOU should shut up because YOU are the one who sounds dumb….Logic & sense makes a lot of sense….and "Sexcdukes" sounds dumb as hell…..Logic & sense ain’t said nuthn that ain’t true…..
Bobby is an independent artist, which means he doesn’t have a lot of hands in his pockets=long money. He also writes, and is probably cashing a check as we speak. Very smart move, because that’s where the real money is anyway…And if all fails, he has a college degree, so he’s good. Y’all worried about counting his money, he’s somewhere counting his blessings, this could have been a tragic situation. Oh, I forgot, if he’s not on twitter clowning, instagram acting an ass, or featured on a new song every other with some autotune thrown in the background, y’all assume he’s struggling.
No one is knocking his success…or the fact that he’s trying to act like a responsible man…so you re off topic…start there.
But, you have to stay grounded..and know what’s going on around you. It’s probably a good idea to save the Bentley for visiting Luda or Diddy…js
And now that you have taken it upon yourself to speak for all the commentators in this post, inform me of what’s on and off topic, and tell us who should drive a Bentley, let me direct you to your fresh seat in the "Not Needed" section of the blog. From reading your previous responses, it looks like you will be there for a while, so enjoy your stay.
Actually Logic & Sense makes perfect sense…ain’t nobody checking 4 his lil short ass…cause had he used his common sense instead of parading a Bentley around the damn hood, he probably wouldn’t got jacked….they say common sense ain’t common….
Lady A…there’s a fresh seat for you, too…Logic saved you one…enjoy, sweetie.
LADY A, how is he parading? Can he not drive what he wants to and where he wants to?
So anyone that has a nice car is ‘parading’? What complete ridiculousness.
He doesn’t write his hits. Only misses.
bOOBY V WRITES FOR ALOT OF ARTIST AND HE ALSO DOES ALOT OF PROJECTS FOR PEOPLE EVEN IF THEY ARENT RELEASED WHERE HE IS FEATURED
He has money ignorant ppl. He writes and produce music. And for the record you can’t rent Bentley’s.
Yes you can. Obviously if you could afford it, you’d know.
You can in ATLANTA
"Am I the only one wondering why Bobby V has a 2013 Bentley?"
Absolutely not…I was thinking the same thing.
He works duhhhhh
B/C he works, writes, & is prob still getting royalty checks from his days with singing group Mista
Wow..no comment saying glad dude ok..didnt get hurt or killed, but go RIGHT IN ON homey finances and hit records…?! Wow..smh…glad bobby.v is ok.
If he had been hurt or injured that would have been the PRIMARY in the story, not the Bentley. SMDH
No, you are not the only person wondering WTH he’s doin with a 2013 Bentley….I don’t remember the last hit he had & don’t really like his music…..I don’t really care 4 him & never have…short men with money (like him) usually have ego problems…..
Next I’m wondering who was the stupid one in this scenario: 1. Bobby V for parking a 2013 Bentley in a lot off Spring Street OR 2. the dumb MF who stole the car like he wasn’t gonna get caught…where was he gonna take a 2013 Bentley?
Spring Street is in the heart of Midtown……and the very exclusive Ansley Park neighborhood is nearby…….That is not the hood. Even if it was the hood he can park his any where he wants.
Heart of Midtown or not, he got carjacked there, so it ain’t THAT exclusive now is it?…..it IS the damn hood…..& yeah, he can park anywhere he wants…& he can get his car stolen from anywhere…he should have went 2 a valet with a car like that….
@Lady A Okay! When I lived in Atlanta a few years back…someone knocked my window out and stole a old azz laptop out of my passenger seat. I was in Midtown parked across from the Art Center…And I wasn’t driving no where near a Bentley…lol So, people stereotype too much. And Downtown also has a drug and homeless population…so let’s not forget that. I’m thinking that’s every city in America. But, whatever…if he can afford a Bentley..than surely he can afford a little $30,000 dollar car or something not as flashy…people are in hard times…and it’s not gonna get better anytime soon. So, these people need to get their heads out the cloud…and understand that.
stealing that man’s advance money like that…the shame of it all!
lmaoooooooooo
I know where he lives, so I am really wondering why he has a car that cost more than 3 times his condo…
Bobby V does not write his own hits so the Bentley is definitely hired.
I’d take this story with a pinch-of-salt, it smells like a PR stunt.
I hope the the robbers didn’t steal the BOOSTER SEAT Bobby had on the driver’s seat! I don’t think Bobby V OWNED the Bentley, maybe a rental or a friend’s!
Booster seat..lol…lmao…rotfl….*flatline*

The Booster seat. tho?I’ve died and gone on to glory…TOO DAMN FUNNY!

I’m glad he’s alright that’s the main thing.
Quit driving Bently’s in the hood. Drive them in neighborhoods where Bentlys are plentiful. If there is such a thing. LOL Pookie and Man Man will kill you for a 5 minute ride in one. Knowing their trifiling azzes will get caught. Just want to brag in the klinker saying they stole one. LOL
I guess someone told his ass to Slow Down…I really just want to rob you…Slow Down…that pretty red Bentley looks good to me…
lol stop yall are killing me today
FOOOOOOLISSSHHHH!LMAO!
I just hope he owns a (paid for) home to go along with this 2013 Bentley.
Right…
Things that make you go..HMMMMMMMMMMM!
I was wondering the same thing and trying to figure out how he has enough money for that.
his net worth is 5 million. I guess he has the $$$$
Does the License start with E?
Rental or leased.
I guess he made some dough off of “Mr.Officer” hook he sang…weeoweeoweeweeowee…
