B.o.B. has returned with another song aimed at promoting his belief that the world is flat.
The “Airplanes” rapper first dropped his song “Flatline” six years ago, which unveiled his support for the debunked conspiracy theory. He was met with significant backlash as a result of the song, as the conspiracy theory often dabbles in anti-Semitic views of Jewish people.
In his new song “Ted Talk,” B.o.B pushes back on his critics and stands firm in his flat-earth faith.
“First of all don’t call me woke I seen the shit they was plotting,” he raps. “They put Neil Tyson on TV to make a mockery of it/ Yo, these shows be owned by Viacom and they friends/ Why would I walk into the lions den and sit and pretend like they ain’t threatened by my mind?/ Because I ain’t gonna comply/ I mean if I said the sky was purple would it have been such a crime?/ Charlamagne Tha God and Lil Duval try to tarnish my image, could have just gave me a call.”
B.o.B spoke with HipHopDX about the flat-earth backlash back in 2020 and said his feud and ultimate diss tracks aimed at famed astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson were a result of feeling disrespected.
“For me it wasn’t even so much the ‘Flat Earth,’ shit, but it was like when I was doing the elements shit and cloning and all that shit bro it — I was for sure, I was like, ‘They gone try and get me bruh,’” Bobby Ray said. “Because you know it’s like, most people when they go through that type of shit, that awakening phase, they do it on their own time. But me, I did it in public.”

He continued, “I was just really angry because I really didn’t like fucking Mr. Potato Head [Tyson] coming at me like that — I was like, ‘Who the fuck.’ Then, somebody was like, ‘You should make a song called “Flatline,” and I was like, ‘Yea man, fuck yeah I’m doing this now.’ So I’m just like, unloading the whole clip and just like, ‘Fuck it, fuck it, fuck it, fuck it,’ and in hindsight, that’s some wild ass shit.”
B.o.B. first mentioned his new song “Ted Talk” while dispelling antisemitism allegations with TMZ back in August.
“Some stuff just kinda sticks with you, man,” B.o.B said of being canceled. “This the era of cancel culture and people finding old things you said. You say one wrong thing and you’re done for. I just feel like I don’t really have any ill intentions in my heart. I’m an honorable person, I treat people respectfully, I’m not prejudice. So I just feel like you can’t really stop somebody, you can’t cancel somebody like that.”
He added: “But I did feel the need to clear the air and kinda just move past it. So I have a song called ‘Ted Talk’ that I’m putting on my next Elements project, so hopefully that will doust the flames.”
this is gonna be kanye in a few years
Yeah. But instead of loosing billions it will be bob loosing thousands with his broke ass. Lol.
Men need to take some elementary courses in physics. Go back to school my man. How can anyone in 2022 really subscribe to a flat Earth theory? Please post the math to substantiate your claims SMFH. The moon is in an elliptical orbit to a flat Earth? LMAO.
You see that elementary course is exactly what deceived every single person on earth to begin with. It’s the first thing you learn. Mabey don’t be ignorant and go do some research youngster
What’s wrong with you? How does the conspiracy of education translate to the basic mathematical principles that govern the dynamics of elliptical orbit and general relativities proven beyond doubt principles on gravity? I take it grade 9 science is all you achieved in high school? ……because I too believe the school system, especially in America, is messed up but in no way is the math wrong lol. Goof talks my man.
2+2 is not 4, just because you read it I a book st school doesn’t mean anything. What gave credibility to the person who wrote thst book? Do you know his name? Or what he did? Or do you blindly believe what some random guy wrote down in some random.book.put in front of you when you and all of us were young and stupid. Why trust that? Because it was mandatory or you just wanted to fit in?
You cannot insult me so do not waste your time junior, how about go to rumble do a little search and make your own conclusion because I can tell you I once didn’t believe it until…
Do you know why planets and stars are round? Gravity pulls and pushes in every direction in space. Ignorance is not bliss when your an adult. 60 zillion pages of books, stories, pictures, videos, live feeds, documents, literature, etc vs “your theory”!! How about this, explain the eclipse if the earth is flat.
You do understand they stopped teaching the flat earth in the school system 100 years ago? Not.very long at all. Explain how gravity works? Nobody knows. Why is it every single picture you have ever seen from space is an artistic painting? Why does nasa astronauts use green screens amongst floating around on wires? Why does the earth spin an impossible speeds you cannot feel nor does that disrupt a crystal clear lake. Where does the curvature begin? Alot of studies and tests done using radio frequency and lassers pointing them over far distances over a large body of water… NO CURVE you could know this simple information if you actually looked into it yourself.
Bruh you sound stupid AF,its one thing to be skeptical,its another to believe you have more understanding of universal concepts EMPIRICALLY established and globally by people who have dedicated their entire lives and careers to specific fields of studies,years of arduous work,correcting and refining their findings through testing via trial and error over decades and centuries,building upon the previous generations results as technology improves. What would anyone profit from lying about the aesthetics of a planetary body? How would you get hundreds of thousands of experts to forgo their scientific research and just go with a lie? This the type of stupid shit that sets us back. Science and the ability to adapt,the ability to cognitively formulate testable research with empirical evidence is what has separated us from every other animal. Knowing is just half the battle,dont be stuck in a cave.
Yup all those liars, you call them professionals LOL funny thing we the tax payees fund all of those lies that keep you simple minded folk blinded to the truth… once again look into it. Not hard at all to do. You have no defense until you do so.
Lmaoo
… all those questions are beyond elementary and you are wrong. No educated or well informed person 100 years ago subscribed to a flat Earth. 100 years ago general relativity was spreading through the globe faster than aids and cancer combined. Newtonian law was long before relativity and although incomplete, still had a solid foundation with gravity and curvatures with space and put planets orbit. Stop the madness my man
Gravity is the force of attraction between masses. If you shrink to the size of an atom on top of an orange, would you see a curve on it? NO! Why does the water spin in different directions on a toilet in north America and opposite in Australia? Easy to answer. Why are bubbles round? Guy, you need to read some books and think outside the box.
He has enough cash to sign and get the proper training and take a trip there himself.
This shot was horrible. B.o.B used to be great, he fell off hard. And apparently is still falling.
Rappers proving once again how stupid they are when it comes to anything outside of hiphop
Coming from a guy who does t think at all… have you actually looked into it? Or are you just ignorant. I don’t take anyone’s word for anything… if I see/hear something that set off a red flag I well… search it? Do some research for yourself. Hopping on a bandwagon just to make yourself feel better won’t get you far in life
Best response ever! ✊?

B.O.B. NEEDS TO TAKE THE L ALREADY. THAT FLAT EARTH SHIT IS VERY 2013.
Funny posted a link, multiple links and of course it was censored.. that Google algorithm is real slick huh? Key words or just some goof ball on maintenence deleting it? If the flat earth is such non sense why delete the links bro..
Go stand on a very high mountaintop and look down at the Earth and you will see the Earth is round, not flat. As easy as that.
Or go on a helicopter ride and look down at the Earth and you will see the Earth is round, not flat. As easy as that.
Very false LOL
The Earth is really round. So you also believe that flat earth theory? That’s foolishness.
Or take off the fish eye lens from on the nasa cams or.dude flying jets… turn the option off to see the perfect straight horizons at 360
Listen, go stand on a very high mountain peak and look down at the Earth you will see it curve because the Earth is round. Don’t believe that flat Earth theory falsehood.
Think of it this way. If the Earth is really flat it must have a beginning and an end. Obviously it cannot continue forever. So where does it begin and end? That flat Earth theory is a whole bunch of bs.
