Reading a statement from his phone, Kanye urged Drake to join him on stage on December 7 for the Free Larry Hoover concert in Los Angeles, US.
The rapper said they would share the biggest albums of the year, Kanye's Donda and Drake's Certifed Lover Boy, on stage - with the ultimate purpose being to free Hoover, an American gang leader serving six life sentences.
He said the event would not only bring awareness to their course but prove to people how much can be accomplished when people lay their pride aside and come together.

Kanye vs Drake
Kanye and Drake have been beefing for years and their beef recently intensified after releasing their albums.
In one of the heated moments in late August 2021, Kanye went on his Instagram sharing a map that gave out Drake's Toronto home address and later deleted it, as per TMZ.
This appears to have been spotted by Drake, who subtly replied to the drama with a chuckle.
The God's Plan hitmaker shared a video while driving in his convertible ride as he laughed off but never mentioned Kanye. However, it was easy for fans to understand the reason behind it.
According to E! News, Drake had earlier shared a video of Toronto's CN Tower and Rogers Centre stadium, which meant he was in his hometown.
