Remember when 50 Cent didn’t know what a grapefruit is? This is kind of like that. Only better.
During an all night Twitter melt, rapper B.o.B let on that he thinks the earth is flat.
Neil deGrasse Tyson shot back with science like some kind of asshole or something:
@bobatl Earth's curve indeed blocks 150 (not 170) ft of Manhattan. But most buildings in midtown are waaay taller than that.

@bobatl Polaris is gone by 1.5 deg S. Latitude. You’ve never been south of Earth’s Equator, or if so, you've never looked up.

@bobatl Duude — to be clear: Being five centuries regressed in your reasoning doesn’t mean we all can’t still like your music

In response B.o.B. released “Flatline”, an incredible track that features an out of context Neil deGrasse Tyson snippet, claims that all science is a lie and a cult, and talks about Hitler for no reason.
Listen to this pure work of art.
