Drake was photographed holding his Billboard Artist of The Decade award in public days after the show aired.
Paparazzi caught the Nothing Was The Same rapper walking around the streets of Los Angeles as he headed to the recording studio.
In the snaps, Drake looked fly while rocking an all-black Nike jumpsuit. He paired it with a crisp white pair of Jordan sneakers.
He finished off his low-key look with a pair of black shades. The icon was accompanied by a large security guard to protect him from any crazed fans.
In the photos, Drake can be seen holding on tight to the award he received from Billboard Music on May 23. It clearly meant a lot to him as he hasn’t let it go nearly 4 days later.
At the award show, Drake brought his son Adonis out during his acceptance speech for a rare public appearance. The Canadian-rapper told the audience, “I’m really self-conscious about my music, and even if I do a good job, I always wonder how I could’ve done it better."
He added, “I rarely celebrate anything. Just for anyone watching this wondering how this happened, that’s really the answer. It’s being so unsure how you’re getting it done that you keep going in hopes of figuring out the formula.”
He dedicated the 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. Thank you to my beautiful family," Drake ended.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Drake is having quite a busy year. He's been accused of hooking up with singer Naomi Sharon after her ex-fiancé came out publicly with the claims. The rapper hasn't bothered to address the situation.
He also is dealing with a civil lawsuit over an alleged nightclub assault involving Kourtney Kardashian's ex-boyfriend, Younes Bendjima.
Earlier this week, Drake sparked dating rumors after posing for a mirror selfie with his makeup artist. Sources close to the rapper told RadarOnline.com the two are just friends and not romantically involved.
