Published under the pseudonym Emo G Records, this two-minute track pays tribute to the Cincinnati zoo gorilla, killed in 2016 after a 3-year-old child climbed into his living area.

Elon Musk can now apparently add "rapper" to his completed resume.

On Saturday, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX appeared to randomly download a self-tuning rap song called "RIP Harambe" on SoundCloud. Published under the pseudonym Emo G Records, the two-minute track pays homage to the Cincinnati Zoo gorilla, killed in 2016 after a 3-year-old child climbed into his living space. It is unclear whether Musk accidentally fell on the track bearing his name or whether he came out himself.

"RIP Harambe / smoke on strong hay / in the gorilla zoo and we think of you," said the person on the song.

Musk tweeted "RIP Harambe" and falsely tagged his 25 million subscribers on Twitter early Saturday morning. "I am disappointed with the failure of my record company," wrote this 47-year-old entrepreneur.

"RIP Harambe" counted more than 200 000 pieces Sunday afternoon. Listen to the track and check out the Musk tweets below.

A version of this story was first published on Billboard.com.
