Rapper B.o.B. in hip-hop beef with astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson over whether Earth is flat Empty Rapper B.o.B. in hip-hop beef with astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson over whether Earth is flat

(CNN)It's the story that just keeps on giving. First, rapper B.o.B launched into an incredibly bizarre Twitter rant insisting that the Earth is flat and we've all been lied to.

Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson felt compelled to politely point out the scientific inaccuracies in B.o.B.'s argument. In response, the rapper released a diss track, "Flatline" in which he compared himself to Malcolm X.

The bizarre song also suggested listeners research Holocaust denier David Irving and discussed conspiracy theories about Freemasons and "mirror lizards." The track has since been taken down from Soundcloud, the site where it had been posted.

Tyson then hit back with his own track -- laid down by his nephew, Stephen.

Let's hope this doesn't turn into another Pac vs. Biggie ...
