After last year's N.W.A. reunion at the BET Experience in Los Angeles, fans have been waiting for members of the Compton-based Hip-Hop group to come together again on stage and Ice Cube finally made it happen on Saturday night at Coachella.

Cube, also known as O'Shea Jackson, brought N.W.A. members DJ Yella and MC Ren on stage during his set at the music festival. The Ride Along actor revealed earlier this year that he was going to reunite the group at Coachella this year for "a little history lesson on Ice Cube and N.W.A., Westside Connection, everything I've been doing over the years."

Although Dr. Dre was nowhere to be seen, this was the first time the N.W.A. members had come together on stage since the success of the biopic Straight Outta Compton and the induction of the group into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last week.

MC Ren and DJ Yella joined Cube onstage to perform N.W.A. hits like Straight Outta Compton and F-k Tha Police, which was performed against a backdrop of videos and images of recent racially motivated police brutality incidents in America.

Outside of the N.W.A, Cube's son, O'Shea Jackson, Jr., who played the role of Cube in Straight Outta Compton, also dropped by to perform a few verses of Dopeman. Cube also brought out Snoop Dogg and Common during his set. Dogg performed hits like Go To Church and Dre-produced The Next Episode, Common performed Real People with Cube.
