Pop Smoke et The Weeknd ont largement dominé les Billboard Music Awards 2021 qui se sont déroulés ce dimanche 21 mai. Une victoire qui concrétise leur domination dans les charts au cours de l'année écoulée. C'est ainsi que le Canadien a remporté dix prix (!) dont Top Artist et Top Male Artist tandis que le rappeur décédé a gagné cinq trophées dans les catégories Top New Artist, Top Rap Artist, Top Male Rap Artist et Top Billboard 200 Album et Top Rap Album pour son projet posthume, "Shoot For The Stars, Aim For The Moon".
Parmi les grands moments de la cérémonie, il y a eu le prix décerné à Drake comme artiste de la décennie. Le natif de Toronto est venu recevoir son trophée accompagné de son fils, Adonis dans un grand moment d'émotion. Etant l'artiste le plus récompensé des Billboard Music Awards, il était logique qu'il remporte cette récompense. Drizzy succède à ce palmarès à Mariah Carey qui a remporté ce prix pour avoir dominé les années 90 et à Eminem pour les années 2000.

Parmi les autres vainqueurs de la soirée, il est arrivé une mésaventure à DaBaby, récompensé dans la catégorie Top Rap Song pour son hit en featuring avec Roddy Ricch, "Rockstar" qui a quand même battu des tubes comme "Savage" et "Wap". Mais quand il a reçu son prix, le rappeur de Caroline du Nord a eu la surprise d'entendre le morceau de Post Malone et 21 Savage, lui aussi nommé "Rockstar" ! Heureusement, cela n'a pas semblé trop le déranger...
