Nicki Minaj Brings Out Drake During Toronto Concert for Live Debut of ‘Needle’: Watch

"Make some noise for the king of Toronto," the "Super Freaky Girl" rapper said to her crowd.

Drake and Nicki Minaj have reunited to give Young Money fans a heavy dose of nostalgia. Minaj returned north of the border for another Pink Friday 2 World Tour stop in Toronto on Tuesday night (April 30), and the 6 God surprised his hometown crowd with a guest appearance.

Drizzy popped out for the Young Money duo’s live debut of “Needle.” The island-tinged record landed on Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 album in December, but the two were yet to hit the stage together for a performance of the track.
