The singer instead shared his conspiracy theory, suggesting that the pandemic has been deliberately manufactured to combat the world’s rising population.
“I don't know... But I think this Ebola epidemic is a form of population control. S**t is getting crazy bruh,” he tweeted.
His tweet was met with disbelief with one follower simply asking "seriously?".
The 25-year-old realised his mistake and later posted: "Let me shut my black a** up!"
