J. Cole brought out Erykah Badu during his performance of “Too Deep for the Intro” at Sunday's closing night of the latest and final installment of Dreamville Fest.

Badu’s classic song “Didn’t Cha Know” is actually sampled on Cole's beloved Friday Night Lights track.

Badu's appearance was the cherry on top of Cole's stunning performance, which unfolded on a stage built to pay homage to his old apartment in Queens, which he's called "Mohammad's Crib."

Since it was his last Dreamville Fest performance ever, Cole made sure to give the people what they want with a career-spanning set.

As for Badu, she joined Lil Wayne, 21 Savage, J. Cole, and Tems as some of the major acts to play the two-day festival, which took place at Raleigh’s Dorothea Dix Park.
