It is the week of beefs to end all weeks of beefs—with not one, not two, but THREE insane beefs coming from the music world. I can't decide which of these is the craziest.

• BEEF THE FIRST: Rapper B.o.B. said on Twitter that the earth is flat. Scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson took time to point out the inaccuracy of this assertion. Since B.o.B. has also denied the Holocaust, Tyson seems to have not only the intellectual upper hand but the ethical one as well. B.o.B. released a diss track directed at Tyson, and last night Tyson visited Larry Wilmore's The Nightly Show to respond:

• BEEF THE SECOND: The above-mentioned-and-very-hilarious beef pales in comparison to yesterday's already legendary beef, when Kanye West went into a Twitter convulsion after Wiz Khalifa offhandedly dissed West's decision to rename his upcoming album Waves. West's 30-tweet outburst has been well documented elsewhere, but it was kind of an amazing thing to watch, as West tweeted things like "Bro first of all you stole your whole shit from Cudi" and "You have distracted from my creative process." (Most of West's outpouring has since been deleted.) West then got personal when he thought Wiz's tweet about "KK" was directed at his wife Kim Kardashian ("KK" in this case refers to weed) and began insulting Wiz's ex-wife Amber Rose, who West used to date. His tweets went from funny and self-aware to kinda gross. (Jezebel has this interesting piece about not only West's issues with Rose and standards of beauty, but his history of sexism.) So Amber Rose BROUGHT A BEEF AVALANCHE TO THE PARTY:

• You could be forgiven for thinking the West/Wiz/#fingergate beef was the greatest beef of all time. But then another beef—BEEF THE THIRD—just went into overdrive today and it is insane. Pharma dude/awful person Martin Shkreli has been beefing with Ghostface Killah after the Wu-Tang rapper called him a "shithead," which, from all the evidence I can find, is not factually inaccurate. (Remember, Shkreli paid millions of dollars for the sole existing copy of Wu-Tang's last album, Once Upon a Time in Shaolin.) So Shkreli made this video responding to Ghostface, and good lord, IT IS BUTTCLENCHINGLY EMBARRASSING. He called some friends (or possibly hired them) to stand in the background, drink, and seem vaguely threatening, while Shkreli delivers the weeniest taunt of all time.

Can the world can handle any more beef? It's only Thursday—the beef week is still young.
