The two rivals came together at The Embassy to settle their differences before witnesses including J. Prince, who brokered the peace.
Comedian Dave Chapelle was there as a witness and celebrated the epic moment, noting the historical significance of Drake’s hometown as the location for the truce.
“You have to admit to yourself, this shit is impressive. I cannot believe I’m in a nigga’s house. A nigga from this city that did not grow up this way. Tonight, he brought some of the biggest stars on Earth to his home. Kanye West is in his home…Dave Chappelle is in his home. This is Canada. It’s what the Black American calls the finish line. Niggas ran from slavery to this place. And tonight, we feel free in my nigga’s home. My God, man.”
