Tyler, the Creator has long been open about his admiration for Lupe Fiasco and, more specifically, his 2008 track "Paris, Tokyo."
At Coachella on Sunday, the Odd Future rapper saw a dream come true as he joined Lupe on stage for a special rendition of the song.
Towards the end of Lupe's set on the Heineken House stage, Tyler, who headlined Coachella on Saturday, popped out and rapped "Paris, Tokyo" bar-for-bar alongside Lupe.
"paris, tokyo is in my blood," Tyler wrote in an Instagram story on Monday alongside a snippet of him and Lupe performing together.
"Paris, Tokyo" was released in April 2008 as the third single from Lupe's second studio album, "Lupe Fiasco's The Cool."
Though the song wasn't a commercial success at the time, it's since become a fan favorite and is one of Lupe's most-streamed songs ever.
In an interview with Blues & Soul Magazine shortly after the track's release, Lupe explained how touring the world inspired him to write the song.
"Between 'Food And Liquor' and this album we travelled everywhere," he said. "Multiple countries, multiple towns, multiple tours. So I just developed a knack and a love for touring."
