9 years ago today, Drake pulled up to the 2017 Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas dressed head to toe in all white Stone Island and Air Force Ones, ready for one of the biggest nights of his career👇

He entered the T-Mobile Arena with 22 nominations across 19 categories and by the time the night was over he had walked away with 13 wins, breaking Adele’s record of 12 wins in a single night which she had set in 2012. The sweep covered every major category the show had to offer including Top Artist, Top Male Artist, Top Billboard 200 Artist, Top Hot 100 Artist, Top Streaming Songs Artist and Top Rap Artist, all fueled by the dominance of ‘Views’ and “One Dance.”

When Prince Michael Jackson walked out to present the Top Artist award, the room already knew what was coming. Drake accepted the trophy and immediately turned the moment into something personal, waving his entire crew up to the stage with him. He spotted his father Dennis Graham in the crowd, who had shown up in a full purple suit and purple shoes, and told the crowd “Look at my dad looking all sharp.” He then turned to Lil Wayne and told the room he was the man responsible for his entire career. Finally he looked at Nicki Minaj standing beside him and called her the love of his life. In one acceptance speech Drake honored three of the most important people to his career 

Thirteen awards later, it was the perfect ending to a perfect night
