After years of on-going drama, it looks like Kanye West (Ye) wants to call a truce to end his long-running feud with Drake.  Their feud took a turn for the worse when, in 2018, Drake accused Ye of ‘leaking private information about his son Adonis to Pusha T’ (Ye has denied this claim more than once).

Fans were shocked to find a video uploaded onto Ye’s Instagram page Monday night, where he publicly read:
“Yo, this is Ye and J Prince. I’m making this video to address the ongoing back and forth between myself and Drake. 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. 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.”

According to Buzzfeed, “Kanye has long attempted to free Larry Hoover, cofounder of the gang Chicago’s Gangster Disciples, who was found guilty of ordering a killing in 1973 and sentenced to serve life in prison. In 1997, Hoover received another six life sentences, after he was found guilty on multiple counts of continued gang activity while in prison. Just earlier this year, Kanye featured Hoover’s son, Larry Hoover Jr., on his song “Jesus Lord,” which appears on his latest album, Donda.”
Another reason why the two have beef – Kanye’s (ex) wife Kim Kardashian.  In an interview that went down last week, Ye called out Drake for ‘implying they had an affair’ while he and Kim were still married.  The speculation began when Drake mentioned the name ‘Kiki’ in his song ‘In My Feelings’ – ‘Kiki’ is one of Kim’s nicknames.
Back in 2018, Kanye shared a handful of Instagram posts, one reading, “The fact that it’s people making rumors or thinking that you f****d my wife and you not saying nothing and you carrying it like that.  That don’t sit well with my spirit.”  Ye and Kim have since filed for divorce, citing ‘irreconcilable differences.’
Prior to Ye’s plea with Drake and in a now-viral appearance on the Drink Champs podcast, he spoke out AGAIN about past issues, “I had this conversation with Drake.  It’s like, ‘I never f****d Kim.’  But I was like, ‘But you acted like you did.  You got bars that’s like, ‘Hidden hills give your wife the chills.’  It’s like somebody throwing a marble and hiding they hand or something like that … all that’s disrespectful’ (Ye is referring to DJ Khaled and Drake song titled ‘Greece’ where Drizzy raps, “Rolls Royce, baby, in Hidden Hills / Bags full of hundred dollar bills / Joggin’ past your wife and she get chills”)
