While receiving the awards, in one of His speeches, Drake thanked his Mom for all the support and care in his life.

"I just want to thank my mom for her relentless effort in my life. I want to thank my mom for all the times you drove me to piano. All the times you drove me to basketball and hockey — that clearly didn't work out. All the times you drove me to 'Degrassi.' No matter how long it took me to figure out what I wanted to do, you were always there to give me a ride, and now we're on one hell of ride,"

He also gave a shout out to "Game of Thrones" actress Maisie Williams, whose plays Arya Stark on the HBO series and shined brightly on last week's episode.


"Shout-out to Arya Stark for putting in that work last week," Drake said onstage after winning his first award of the evening.
