He is known for his electric cars and rockets, for his shattering statements too. Tesla's iconic founder, Elon Musk, has just revealed another of his talents: electronic music.

Look no further for Elon Musk on Twitter: for a few hours, the whimsical billionaire became EDM, the acronym for "electronic dance music".

"I just wrote a song called + Don't doubt ur vibe +", Elon Musk announced on Thursday evening on Twitter, a message accompanied by photos of him in a music studio.

"I wrote the lyrics and I'm the one who sings," he wrote again, sharing his song on the social network, released on his own label Emo G Records.

The boss of Tesla and Space X gave no clue, either on his sources of inspiration or on the continuation of his musical career.

On Thursday, Tesla's value on the New York Stock Exchange reached a capitalization of $ 116.72 billion, and surpassed that of the three main American car manufacturers, General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler USA.
