While word spread the day before the show that Drake’s three-year-old son Adonis would be in the audience to see his dad accept the Artist of the Decade award at the Billboard Music Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, few expected the rapper to walk on stage with him.
Drake, clad in a dapper off-white suit with a heart sculpted into his hair, walked on stage holding hands with his son, whose hair was on cornrows, and immediately handed him the award (which was about one-third the tot’s height). The appearance was even more notable because photos of Adonis, let alone public appearances, have been rare.
The award was presented not by Rihanna or Lil Wayne or anyone globally famous, but by Drake’s family and tight-knit team. He walked on stage to accept the award after a video reeling off his many career accomplishments, which include 27 Billboard awards — 12 in 2019 alone.
