Elon Musk has a net worth of $21.1 billion and has decided to give dropping tracks on SoundCloud a shot. Completely unannounced, Musk dropped a new single titled, "RIP Harambe," on his page, Emo G Records.

The autotune-heavy track sees the billionaire entrepreneur explaining how much he misses Harambe, the 17-year-old Western lowland gorilla who was shot and killed in 2016 after a 3-year-old boy climbed into his enclosure at the Cincinnati Zoo. Shortly after his death, he became the subject of many memes paying respect to him.

Listen to "RIP Harambe" below.

Despite the outdated reference, Musk seems to be quite happy with the track. It's not clear if he's responsible for both the vocals and the production. Perhaps Grimes helped him put it together.

Unlike his infamous "420 tweet," this joke of his likely won't land him in serious trouble with both investors and the SEC. He does reference "smoking on some strong" in the song, though. Musk recently unveiled Tesla's Crossover SUV Model Y at their design studio just outside Los Angeles. The new model is due in 2020.
