American rapper, Kanye West, now known as Ye, has called on the fellow rapper, Drake, to put an end to the ongoing feud between them.
Kanye West made his appeal to Drake in a video posted on Twitter by Texas-based music executive, J Prince on Tuesday.
While reading from a phone, He said,
“I’m making this video to address the ongoing back-and-forth between myself and Drake. Both Drake and I have taken shots at each other and it’s time to put it to rest,”
West, who is also a heavyweight in the American fashion sector, invited Drake to perform with him next month in support of Larry Hoover, who is now serving multiple life terms for murder and running a criminal enterprise.
“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.
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 continued.

Both artists have been at odds for years, and their animosity erupted this year when they both released record-breaking albums in which they appeared to take jabs at each other.
Donda, West’s eleventh studio album, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 in August with 309,000 equivalent album units.
While Drake’s Certified Lover Boy smashed this record when it debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart in September with 613,000 copies sold.
In a December 2018 Twitter thread, Kanye West expressed his displeasure with the rapper for following his wife, Kim Kardashian, on Instagram.
The rappers’ feud continued in 2021 after Ye reportedly posted Drake’s Toronto address via his Instagram page in August.
