AceShowbiz - Kanye West and Ice Cube are seemingly back on good terms. The Los Angeles native and the "Donda" artist were caught sharing a hug in the first photo since their fallout over the latter's anti-semitic remarks.
Cube and Ye hung out together on Friday, June 2. The two rap stars were photographed smiling and hugging outside the "Straight Outta Compton" actor's home in Marina Del Rey, California.
Ye, who was seemingly in good spirits before he left in his car, sported a black short-sleeve shirt and black pants that he paired with black sock shoes for the outing. The 53-year-old emcee, in the meantime, wore a black hoodie, jeans, Nike sneakers and his signature L.A. Dodgers baseball cap.
The drama between Cube and Ye started in October 2022 after Ye claimed Cube has inspired him to be on "this anti-Semite vibe." The ex-husband of Kim Kardashian said on "Drink Champs", "Cube's really set me up for this. You've really influenced me to get on this anti-Semite vibe." He added, "I'm here to finish the job."
Cube, however, denied that he was the driving force behind Ye's anti-semitic remarks. "I hate that my name was dragged into this Drunk Champs bulls**t," he penned on Twitter. "I don't know what Ye meant by his statements, you're gonna have to ask him. I didn't put the batteries in his back. Please leave my name out of all the antisemitic talk. I'm not antisemitic and never have been."
Later in December, Cube doubled down on his sentiment, insisting that he had nothing to do with anti-Semitism. "I mean, you know, when somebody turn it out-when a n***a turn the party out and say, you know, he did it 'cause of you, you got to say somethin' about that," he said while appearing on "Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson", adding that he didn't want his name involved in the discussion.
"Like, homie. Homie, homie. Nah, nah. You gotta stand on this one on your own. That's all that was about," he continued. "You know, I didn't say nothin'. It's just, at the end of the day, I just had to let everybody know that don't blame me for s**t."
