Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX but who you probably know best for his rap about Harambe, just dropped an EDM song.
The tech billionaire released a single on Soundcloud Friday while tweeting out photos of himself working on it, providing some much-needed proof that this is all really happening. The song is called "Don't Doubt ur Vibe," and Musk was quick to change his Twitter display name to "E 'D' M" perhaps as a preview of an all-new persona. Rest assured, a mash-up of the song and Musk's strange dance at a recent Tesla event was on YouTube almost immediately.
This comes after Musk last year released the song "RIP Harambe," about exactly what you think it was about, which he declared his "finest work." Musk tweeted ahead of the release of "Don't Doubt ur Vibe" that he "just wrote a song," while in another tweet excitedly adding, "I wrote the lyrics & performed the vocals!!" These to-the-point tweets provided no further answers about how — and why — this all came together, but if the universe really is all a simulation like the Tesla CEO posits, seeing Musk sweep the Grammys in a few years may be all the proof we need.
