Here's Why You Don't Hear From B.o.B. Anymore

So, why did B.o.B seemingly fall off the face of the earth?

So, why did B.o.B seemingly fall off the face of the earth? Well, funny we should mention "earth." Though the star couldn't recreate the success of his smash album (with his label breaking from him around 2013, per XXL), he truly cemented his has-been status when he took to Twitter in January 2016... insisting the earth is flat.

Yup, according to CNN, the rapper infamously blasted off a series of tweets on the flat-earther conspiracy theory that the world is indeed not round, but flat. "No matter how high in elevation you are... the horizon is always eye level ... sorry cadets... I didn't wanna believe it either," he wrote, per the outlet, along with photographs. Oh, boy!

Soon after, astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson couldn't help but dunk on the beleaguered musician. "Duude — to be clear: Being five centuries regressed in your reasoning doesn't mean we all can't still like your music," the expert tweeted. B.o.B doubled down, writing a diss track, entitled "Flatline," which featured a recording of Tyson discussing the earth. It certainly didn't help matters, though you have to give the rapper points for penning a diss track at a scientist. Since then, Bill Nye has laughed him off, too.

More recently, B.o.B. reflected to Billboard that he regrets when the "questioning evolved to assertiveness." "It definitely gets exhausting with people," he said in May 2020, adding it's essentially meant "people sending you philosophy essays." Well, what goes around...
