KEY POINTS

  • Kanye West asked Drake to join him on stage on Dec. 7
  • J Prince revealed Larry Hoover asked West to make peace with Drake
  • Their feud intensified earlier this year with the release of "Donda"

Kanye West has invited Drake to perform with him next month. In a video shared by J Prince on Twitter Monday, West revealed his intention to put their feud to rest, saying he wants the rapper to join him on stage as a special guest in his show in Los Angeles on Dec. 7.

“I’m making this video to address the ongoing back-and-forth between myself and Drake,” said West in the video. “Both me and Drake have taken shots at each other and it’s time to put it to rest.”

“I’m asking Drake on December 7 to join me on stage as a special guest to share the two biggest albums of the year live in Los Angeles with the ultimate purpose being to free Larry Hoover,” he continued, referring to the co-founder of the Gangster Disciples gang who is currently behind bars in Colorado. “I believe this event will not only bring awareness to our cause but prove to people everywhere how much more we can accomplish when we lay our pride to the side and come together,” he concluded.

In the caption of his video, J Prince, who met with West at the Rothko Chapel on Nov. 7, revealed that Hoover wanted to “see peace between the two artists.

“So I met with Ye to pass on the message from my brother Larry Hoover who said he would like to see peace between the two of them. Ye received this well and said thanks because he never had anyone that sat him down and explained things to him the way I did. I’m looking forward to all of us working together in unison to elevate our communities around the world,” part of his caption read.

West and Drake have been feuding for many years. Earlier this year, their feud intensified when West released “Donda” and Drake released “Certified Lover Boy,” which instantly became Spotify’s most-streamed album in a single day with 132 million streams in its first 24 hours. Although the song doesn’t make any mention of West, fans believe it’s Drake’s way of taking digs at the artist.
