Rapper Wiz Khalifa has declared himself a flat Earth believer during a recent appearance on The Joe Budden Podcast.
“I would say no,” Khalifa stated when asked if he thinks the Earth is round. “I just believe that we live on a flat plane, like a huge flat plane.”
The 35-year-old Pittsburgh rapper, known for hits like “Black and Yellow” and “See You Again,” explained that his extensive travel experiences contributed to this belief.
“It’s only because I’ve traveled so much,” he elaborated. “When I travel, the routes that we take and how we do it, it’s not possible to go up and down. You’re just going straight.”
During the podcast, Khalifa further expounded on his theory, suggesting that there may be more to our world than what we currently know. “I think that there’s more masses than just what we see,” he said. When asked if he had ever reached the edge of the Earth, he replied, “Nah. It’s not that.”
Khalifa also expressed skepticism about space exploration in general, stating, “I don’t believe in space exploration at all. I don’t believe that they explore space as much as they say that they do.”
The rapper, who has transformed himself physically in recent years through a dedicated fitness regimen, reportedly doubled down on his flat Earth stance on another podcast days later.
Born Cameron Jibril Thomaz, Khalifa has diversified his career beyond music, creating his own cannabis brand, Khalifa Kush, in 2015. He maintains a disciplined lifestyle that includes waking up at 6:00 A.M., taking his son to school, and following a rigorous workout routine.
Khalifa joins a small but vocal group of celebrities who have publicly questioned the spherical nature of our planet, despite overwhelming scientific evidence to the contrary. The flat Earth theory has been debunked by centuries of scientific observation, satellite imagery, and space exploration.
