Kanye West and 50 Cent have ended their feud.

The two rappers - formerly bitter rivals - made peace over vodka shots at New York's 40/40 Club on Wednesday night (22.08.07).

Kanye and 50 were also joined by fellow hip-hop stars Jay-Z, Sean Combs and T.I.

A clubber told the New York Post newspaper: "They all strolled through the club like the rap Rat Pack. Everyone was going crazy around them.

"Kanye and Fiddy put their differences behind them and had a drink together at the bar."

Earlier this month, 50 vowed to quit music if Kanye West's new album, 'Graduation', outsold his own, 'Curtis', when they are both released on September 11.

50 said: "Let's raise the stakes. If Kanye West sells more records than 50 Cent on September 11, I'll no longer perform music. I'll write music and work with my other artists, but I won't put out any more solo albums.

"They would like to see Kanye West give me a problem because I've worked myself into a space where I've become the favourite. Everybody roots for the underdog when he goes against the favourite."

When asked about the challenge at the MTV Video Music Award nominations, West said: "What am I going to debate about? I thought it was the stupidest thing. When my album drops and 50's album drops, you're going to get a lot of good music at the same time."
