Wiz Khalifa's Controversial Views: 'Earth is a Flat Plane'

Rapper Wiz Khalifa expressed his belief in a flat Earth during a podcast, citing his extensive travel experiences as evidence. Despite being challenged, he maintained his stance, also questioning the extent of space exploration. His new album cover ironically features a round Earth image.

During his recent appearance on The Joe Budden Podcast, rapper Wiz Khalifa made headlines with his controversial views on Earth's shape. Despite scientific consensus proving the Earth is round, Khalifa stated his belief in a 'flat plane' theory.

Khalifa's unconventional perspective is inspired by his extensive travels, as he mentioned, 'I just believe that we live on a flat plane, like a huge flat plane.' However, academic Marc Lamont Hill challenged Khalifa, questioning if he had traveled to Earth's edge. Khalifa then adapted his view, pondering greater landmasses beyond our known world, potentially referencing the historical concept of Pangaea.

Further expressing his skepticism, Khalifa questioned the legitimacy of space exploration claims. Ironically, the cover of his newly released album, 'Kush + Orange Juice 2', showcases a round Earth, contrasting his public statements. The album debuted on April 18, continuing from his 2010 hit record.
