Wiz Khalifa is apparently a flat-Earther. He tells The Joe Budden Podcast, “I just believe that we live on a flat plane. It's only because I've traveled so much." He continued, "I think that there's more masses than just what we see. It was one thing before and it's like spread out. Because when I travel the routes that we take and how we do it, it's not possible to go up and down—you're just going straight. I never looped around. I never was on one place and then went to the other coast from that place. You always go the long way.”
