People get mad in the comments section because we post so much about Drake. However, we have to post what the people are listening to and it’s evident Drake reigns supreme after taking home a record 13 trophies at the Billboard Music Awards Sunday (May 21).
Drizzy — who was nominated 22 times — nabbed several trophies before the official ceremony even started. But during the event, his wins for Top Male Artist, Top Billboard 200 Album and Top Artist put him ahead of Adele’s record set in 2012. That year, the British superstar took home 12 trophies.
In one of his acceptance speeches, Drake saluted Ludacris to prove their beef is dead and also professed his love for Nicki Minaj.
Along with collecting several awards for VIEWS and his sensational streaming numbers, Drake gave a fiery performance of the More Life cut “Gyalchester” in the Fountains of Bellagio.
Check out the full list of 2017 Billboard Music Awards winners here and see Drake with all 13 of his trophies below.

See your life…smh
I look for hookershoe comments more then the articles itself he is so stupid it’s funny
So…. we gonna just end this now. Drake > Kendrick. It’s kinda like Lebron > KD. They both tight but only one is the KING…
EXACTLY- N Kendrick is LeBron, dumbass. If classic quality albums is equivalent to rings, Kendrick got 4. All them great singles Drake got is like good single game performances, but fans n critics ALIKE both think Drake’s albums have all been lackluster. Only reason he won this award is due to sales, not quality. Oh yea, n Kendrick sold more w DAMN., he’ll just get his award next year.
Fuck this site and fuck you, “victoria hernandez”. This site is a joke. This site looks like it’s run by 12 year suburban girls now. You delete comments because you can’t handle the fact that anyone with an I.Q. over 10 takes the time to write truthful things about the GARBAGE you praise. We’re supposed to listen to drake because the “people” are? Because “victoria hernandez” says so? If drake ate his own feces on camera, we’re supposed to applaud and emulate that according to “victoria hernandez”. Fuck you.
Yes, everything Drake does is news worthy because you haters are always first in line to check out Drake articles and music to hate. So yes, everything he does is important. All eyez are on him. The world revolves around the 6ix God now. So either get used to it or shut your bitch ass up and go jump in front of a moving train. Your choice. #DrakeIsLoveDrakeIsLife #MoreLife
Take your own advice: jump in front of a moving train yourself & see if aubrey or victoria hernandez give a shit, little troll. Stick to playing with dolls, homokid
It’s amazing how much hatred there is for the 6 God. I’ve been listening to hiphop since Public Enemy and Rakim watching it grow into what it is today. I remember when the Beastie Boys, Biggie and Jay-Z were all initially dismissed for their initial popularity and record sales and then, worshipped all the same in due time. dude performed a great hiphop joint – gylachester – in the middle of the bellagio fountain and he broke records . That’s great for hiphop no matter how u haters try to spin it
Ghuy I’ll tell you what. True, Drake gets a shitload of hate and some of it is right and worthy but the majority is vitriol spewed by haters that just wanna see dude down. BUT, alotta that majority hate comes as a defense against supreme dickriding from dude’s fans. Idk whose got more dickriding fans today, Jay or drake.
So you see haters, Drizzaveli is the GOAT. Your hero, Kendrick Lameass, is nowhere near his level. Free schmoke for all you haters. Go ahead and bow down to the 6ix God now! #DrakeIsLoveDrakeIsLife #MoreLife
OVOKid, are you kidding? Like Drake all you want but if you’re a student of hiphop and somehow think he’s better than any of his peers, that STILL doesn’t give him a pass over rappers before him that did more for hiphop to be considered GOAT – Pac, Big, Rakim, LL, Nas, Jay, Big Daddy Kane, Eminem all exceed your favorite wet dream in that convo by LIGHTYEARS.
I hate how people use these awards to validate success, these artists “figuratively” sold their souls to be played and bought by consumers, there is no artistry in what they do. I’m totally okay with Drake winning all of these, it just goes to show much of a puppet he really is in this industry. Fake ass mofo. #kdot
Yep. And a lot of time when artists do ridiculous numbers the label buys back a lot of their albums to pad their sales.
2 things. People like Drake, if he bothers you guys so much don’t read the articles don’t listen to him. Secondly, Kendrick didn’t win anything because his album didn’t come out during the period in which billboard decided to select music to nominate. K-Dot will get his awards next year, but I don’t know if he’ll get 17 wins. Anyway you slice it, That’s pretty impressive. Don’t hate don’t love drake, but good on him.
Are you Australian?
“People get mad in the comments section because we post so much about Drake. However, we have to post what the people are listening to…” Just saying, but posting what “the ppl” listen to is objective af for one, and posting shit about Drake that sometimes aint got a damn thing to do w music (which sadly happens substantially on this site, albeit possibly from particular writers) isnt exactly posting “what the people are listening to”. The whole intro is teeming w personal emotives that have no place within the construct of the article itself. Whatever happened to that journalistic integrity where you don’t allow your views to seep into your article? Im no Drake, but that’s just my VIEWS
Lame!!
Its okay. Shits always lame when you don’t understand. English isn’t for everyone, and neither is good journalism. You clearly don’t get either. But don’t trip. You cant be a mule and expect to run w the horses.
Thats for you King Prizzy, aka Drake’s personal fleshlight
As usual another drake article written by his faithful slob Victoria “FUCKTARD” HE.RPnandez.
“We have to post what the people are listening to…” well, most people are retards so i don’t really care. Victoria you should apply for HollywoodLife by the way.
We have to post what the people are listening to…”
TRANSLATION: Corporate puppets with no control and biased opinions that hold no weight
All award shows have lost credibility
oy vey, his rabbi shlomo must be s proud of him
Where’s Kendrick Lamar? I thought he outsold Drake? So, you have to be cheezy, poppy, transgendered and homo to break the record? …
you can listen to drake’s music over and over and still like it while on the other hand, you listen to Kendrick’s music, it gets boring..
I listen to Drake’s album over n over n conclude its a methodical mainstream hodgepodge of a somewhat talented ACTOR being pushed to the masses by putting his spin on shit that’s already hot. I listen to Kendrick’s album over n over n realize “Holy shit, here’s an actually original and talented MUSICAL ARTIST who gives you a piece of him in every album”. Only time Drake is sincere and true is when hes crying about a bitch.
It’s the Billboard Awards. The award goes to the person that sold the most and who got the most radio play. And of course drake was all over the radio this past year. So he wins, great. My thing is, why is he nominated in the rap category? When he is obviously and R and B artist. There is like three rap songs on Views. The rest are singalongs and ballads. So why is he in the rap categories?
Drake’s ,music appeals to the mass audience….i think that answers your question. KL i think you can all agree not everyone can understand or relate with what he talks about.
today is a big win for the gay and transgender community, we all gonna celebrate with some dick in our mouth and pray for the 6 god
Holly Fuc tards… Pwahaha! someone hand this one an award
People get mad in the comments section because we post so much about Drake, lil yatcht. lil uzi vert, nicky minaj, dj khaled, designer, kim kardashian, 50 cent, etc
My boy Drake keeps winning while KenDICK keeps taking those L’s. SMH, he needs to try harder .. PS, great article again Victoria
i got a strong feeling you’re that Fuck Queensbridge guy.
I got a strong feeling that the “retardation gene” is very prominent within your whole family’s bloodline . Here have a like ..
im sorry but why do jcole kdot and drizzy win all the awards are they really that good?
i mean tupac 50 ti jeezy jayz nas didnt win or even get nominated for as many awards as these guys and i know they are all better rappers
so what is really going on?
Hip hop was never in the spotlight like it is now that’s why you’re seeing these newer generation artists actually winning awards
are you kidding most rappers since the 90s have platinum records rap
was always popular
they just win awards now for some reason
but troy ave doulph and gangsta rappers who are good will never even be nominated
becuause they make music everyone can enjoy
and 50 ti amd tipac didnt?
What happened to the source awards!!!!
they would sell out too
look at the bet awards
awards shows are dead don’t watch them
The Source Awards couldn’t keep themselves professional. Onyx shot it up then Suge Knight added more fuel to the East vs West fire. Always some bullshit going on.
Remember when this site was about covering both mainstream AND underground artists? You know hip-hop, not just Top 40? You could get articles and reviews from everyone like Nelly right to Talib Kweli. Sadly, this site is now part of the industry machine that is aissisting in the manufactured stardom that is Drake
Fortunatley, we now live in an era of iTunes and streaming, so u can choose who to listen to. I remember back in the day where u would be forced to listen to Drake. Sorry, you can’t force this manufactured “talent” into my ears. I haven’t listened to one Drake song in full (unless it was on NBA 2K) and plan to keep it that way.
Thanks for finding your way to a site just to comment that and making your bitterness for life known lmao. How sad.
That mean you dont go to club or parties. You dont listen to radio stations in your city/town.
More awards in 1 night than Meek Mill will get his whole career. MMG HOLD THIS L
Lmao @ you for typing that bullshit comment . Slow minded idiot typing with your thumbs again aren’t you ?
meek seeing his dream realized in drake’s many achievements
Drake is the greatest artist of all time. I can’t even keep up with the amount records this guy breaks.
Lmfaooooo
Fake Drake ain’t nothing more than this wack hip hop generations mc hammer, vanilla ice, Milli Vanilli. a manufactured bubble gum, pop puppet, non-threatening white washed hip pop made white middle America. It’s Proven he doesn’t write his own songs, he steals lyrics, beats, flows from real artists with talent. let’s not forget that pathetic “FREESTYLE” HE READ OFF HIS PHONE LOL. #DRAKEISFAKEDRAKEISWACK #70% OF FAKE DRAKE’S FANS WEAR HIGH HEELS…THE OTHER 30% ARE QUEER THAT WEAR SANDALS
Is you big mad or small mad? wasting all of your energy.
One of the best of this generation. Hate him or love him. you cant take this from him
goat
Goat fucker you mean? And he is the goalie. The catcher…
Most people complaining are rappers that will never make it or Opinionated alleged hip hop lovers who didnt go see a underground show in there city or listen to the free cd your local artist tried to give to over the weekend. STFU complaining. Bet you didnt buy the Biggie or Snoop album but will put em in your tops and say bring back the real. You say Hip Hop DX is mainstream but they post underground artists all the time and you not in the or comment section on those threads. Fuck you supposed hardcore hip hop fans holding the culture back complaining instead of supporting.
lol, and in what way does supporting Drake advance the culture?
90s ny rap is dead. Learn how to recognize success. It will lower your stress.
MEEK TAKES ANOTHER L!!!! DAMN!!!!
How sway? Drake can never be halfbtge rapper meek is.. that no substance trash drake does is for girls n closet boys… Meek is about that real life black struggle music not the silver spoon, emotional, miss your ex girlfriend, funny dancing frooty music.. Don’t even know y u drake Stan’s bring up meek in every drake article.. gtfoh!!! The ninja ninja ‘left Hollywood’… now he is on ‘glow up’ with the ‘top down’… #realoneswillgetit
You are only as good as your last album.. with that said, Kendrick is the no1 rapper on the world right now.. numbers don’t lie… (sales numbers)
