After seemingly putting an end to their feud, kanye-west” target=”_blank”>Kanye West< are teaming up for a benefit concert to get Chicago gang leader Larry Hoover out of prison.
West announced on Instagram Saturday that he and Drake will be doing a joint performance at a benefit concert at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on Dec. 9 to advocate for clemency for Hoover.
West’s post was captioned,”God’s Plan,” which is a nod to Drake’s 2018 track.
West is listed as the headliner of the show while Drake is a special guest at the event. They will presumably take the stage together for the first time after being at odds.
