Just shy of a month on from squashing their beef in Canada, Drake and Kanye West (now legally known as Ye) shared the stage for their Free Larry Hoover Benefit Concert, at which they performed each other's songs.

Held at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum last night (December 9), the event marked West's first headlining performance in five years, while it was Drake's first performance since his guest appearance at Travis Scott's tragic Astroworld festival.

Ye and Drake took the stage to a Sunday Service Choir rendition of "Ultralight Beam," trading off stage time with one another. The former's setlist included catalogue classics from across his career, including "Jesus Walks," "Touch the Sky," "Stronger" and "Black Skinhead," while the latter's included more recent cuts like "No Friends in the Industry," "Way 2 Sexy," "What's Next," "Life Is Good" and "God's Plan."

As part of his set, Ye covered Drake's "Find Your Love" (which he produced), ahead of Drake taking on Donda stunner "24." The two also came together on performances of "Can't Tell Me Nothing" and "Forever," which you can find clips of below.

Though the concert was intended to "[raise] awareness of the need for prison and sentencing reform," outlets report that there was nary a mention of Larry Hoover or his incarceration from either Drake or Ye while onstage.

The event, which was streamed live via Amazon Music, Prime Video and the Amazon Music Twitch channel, supported organizations including Ex-Cons for Community and Social ChangeHustle 2.0 and Uptown People's Law Center.
