Aaaaannnddd the award goes to….DRAKE! Yep that’s right, BMI crowned the rapper/singer as “Songwriter of the Year” during their urban awards ceremony in Hollywood this past weekend. Looks like Drake’s bragging rights are in order considering he was also honored with the Hal David Starlight Award at the 42nd annual Songwriters Hall of Fame gala of earlier this year. Check out his acceptance below and the “special” shout out he gave to Universal Motown’s Sylvia Rhone.


Congratulations to Drake who’s definitely making major moves early in his career!
