US rapper B.o.B has released a track downplaying the Nazi genocide, hinting at a Jewish conspiracy involving President Barack Obama and urging listeners to research Holocaust denier David Irving.
The song came after B.o.B - whose real name is Bobby Ray Simmons - posted dozens of tweets on Monday claiming that the Earth is flat.
At one point, the singer - who has number one singles in the UK and the US - wrote: “A lot of people are turned off by the phrase ‘flat earth’ ... but there's no way u can see all the evidence and not know... grow up”.
This rant elicited responses from prominent US astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, who tweeted back to inform the musician that he was mistaken, calling him “five centuries regressed” in his reasoning.
