“Started from the bottom now we’re here!” Tonight was the Billboard Awards, and the celebrities showed up and showed out! From red carpet looks to performances, every artist did what needed to be done. Pop Smoke, The Weeknd, Drake, and many others took home awards as well. Drake received the award for top streaming songs artist, but his most significant award was receiving the artist of the decade award. Surrounded by his friends and family, they introduced him, and a video narrated by LeBron James played shortly after detailing his amazing career.
Drake took to the stage with his son Adonis right by his side in his award show debut! The audience was so excited to see Adonis’ adorable self. The three-year-old rocked cornrows and held his dad’s award right before Champagne Papi gave a moving speech. “The truth is, I’m really bad at taking compliments,” he said. “I’m really self-conscious about my music, and even if I do a good job, I always wonder how I could have done it better. I rarely celebrate anything.”
Drake continued, “I want to dedicate this award to my friends. I want to dedicate this award to my longtime collaborators. I want to dedicate this award to all my peers, all your decisions, and the music you make really does have me tossing and turning at night, trying to figure out what I should do next. “
Adonis wasn’t feeling being on stage, he started throwing a minor tantrum, and Drake picked him up as he closed the speech and thanked his beautiful family. The folks on the innanet quickly ate up Adonis’ appearance. One commented, “Adonis was a runner and a track star tonight.”
