Kanye West and Ice Cube appeared to have buried the hatchet when they were spotted meeting up in Los Angeles this week.
Ice Cube, 53, welcomed Kanye, 45, to his home, where the two men were spotted enjoying a friendly chat outdoors.
Their conversation concluded with a warm embrace, during which both of them were seen beaming before Kanye headed off.
Last year the duo were at odds over Kanye’s string of anti-Semitic outbursts, which included a vow to ‘go death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE.’
As Kanye’s career imploded from the scandal, he went on the podcast Drink Champs and claimed his rants were inspired by Cube’s social media – a charge Cube vehemently denied, insisting: ‘I didn’t put the batteries in his back.’

However Kanye seemed in bright spirits after this week’s confab with Cube, spreading his arms in an apparent show of relaxation.
His latest sighting comes two months after Kanye bizarrely wrote on Instagram that ‘watching Jonah Hill in 21 Jump street made me like Jewish people again.’
Kanye, whose mental health struggles have surfaced in the headlines in the past, added: ‘No one should take anger against one or two individuals and transform that into hatred towards millions of innocent people.’
His Instagram post concluded: ‘No Christian can be labeled anti-Semite knowing Jesus is Jew. Thank you Jonah Hill I love you.’
Jonah has maintained a public silence on the subject, ignoring the paparazzi who tried to ask him about Kanye while he left Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica.
Last October, Cube insisted he did not inspire Kanye’s anti-Semitic rants, after the controversial rapper referred to him as a heavy influence in his controversial remarks.
Cube defended himself on Twitter shortly after Kanye claimed Cube had ‘really set me up for this’ during an appearance on the podcast Drink Champs.
‘You’ve really influenced me to get on this antisemite vibe,’ Kanye said of Ice Cube during his interview before adding, ‘I’m here to finish the job.’

But Cube was having none of it and took to Twitter to remove himself from the controversy.
‘I hate that my name was dragged into this Drunk Champs bulls***. I don’t know what Ye meant by his statements, you’re gonna have to ask him,’ he tweeted.
‘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,’ he added.
Cube has previously been accused of posting anti-Semitic memes in the past.
In 2020, he vehemently denied his Twitter account had been hacked following allegations he had posted anti-Semitic memes.
The N.W.A. frontman took to Twitter to issue the clarification after fans called him out for disseminating an ‘Anti-Semitic trope’.
‘What the f*** are you doing?’ demanded one user of the outspoken rapper.
‘This is CUBE,’ began the Straight Outta Compton hitmaker. ‘My account has not been hacked.’
