Drake's Los Angeles, California stop of the "Would You Like a Tour?" tour featured appearances from Snoop Dogg and Nicki Minaj.

During the Los Angeles, California stop of his "Would You Like a Tour?" Drake was joined on stage by Snoop Dogg and Nicki Minaj.

"Make some noise for one of the most beautiful, most talented women in the world," Drake said. "Ms. Nicki Minaj."

Minaj responded with kind words for Drake, as well. 

"Make some noise for my brother," Minaj said of her YMCMB labelmate. "I love you, Drake."

On this year's Nothing Was The Same, Drake speaks about a time when he and Nicki Minaj were not on the best of terms. The rapper's "Tuscan Leather" includes lyrics about this.

"I gotta stay with the family," Drake raps on the song. "Not even talkin' to Nicki / Communication is breakin' / I dropped the ball on some personal shit, I need to embrace it / I'm honest. I make mistakes. I'd be the second to admit it / Think that's why I need her in my life, to check me when I'm trippin'." 

In September, Drake said his relationship with Nicki Minaj has changed since "Tuscan Leather" was recorded in an interview with Los Angeles radio station Power 106. 

"The album is a journey, so the first song is not where I'm at in my life right now," Drake said during the interview. "I started this album a year and a half ago, and it did kind of go in chronological order, for the most part. That song kind of picks up at an earlier point in my life. I had done something that I had to just reevaluate and fix. We're good. We definitely talk. I saw her the other night. It was all love.

"I choose to express personal things in my music and I don't ever do it with malice," Drake continued. "I hope that when she hears that line, she understands that what I'm saying is that she's necessary in my life and that I care about her. It's never with bad intentions. I did express that, and I did also fix that, which I'm happy about."

"It's only right that I give you this experience," Drake said. "This guy right here is one of the most important people, not only in music, but just in the world. One of the best people I've ever met in my life. Y'all make some noise for that real West Coast, that real L.A." 

Snoop Dogg's appearance comes just as the rapper celebrates 20 years since the release of his debut album, Doggystyle.
