Drake Brought Out His Son While Being Honored at the BBMAs, and It Was So Precious

Published on May 24, 2021 at 10:36 PM

Drake may have been honored with the artist of the decade award at Sunday's Billboard Music Awards, but it was his 3-year-old son, Adonis Graham, who ended up stealing the show. As the 34-year-old rapper delivered his speech on stage, all eyes were likely on Adonis as he stood by his dad. As if that wasn't cute enough, their adorable father-son date marked Adonis's first public appearance.

"I've spent an incalculable amount of hours trying to analyze all the things I did wrong, but tonight, for once, I'm sure as hell we did something right," Drake said before dedicating his award to Adonis. "I want to dedicate this award to you," Drake added as he picked up Adonis. Drake shares his son with artist Sophie Brussaux, and even though we've only gotten a few glimpses of him since he was born on Oct. 11, 2017, this moment is definitely one of our favorites.
