Drake has presented the 'Hood Grammys' on his Instagram account.
The
rapper took it upon himself to hand out a series of awards on social
media Sunday, writing in one of his posts: 'Grammys need to have a rap
year.'
In a series of photos depicting the golden Grammy
statuettes, he named Bobby Shmurda winner of 'Vocal Performance of the
Year,' while Rae Sremmurd's No Flex Zone and Rich Gang's Young Thug and
Rich Homie Quan's Lifestyle were competing for Best Performance By A
Group Or Duo.
OG Maco was his winner for 'Best All Around Turn Up' for U Guessed It.
OVO's PartyNextDoor won for 'Mixtape of the Year' while ILoveMakonnen was awarded 'Best Latin Club Anthem' for Tuesday.
Drake is no stranger to receiving actual Grammys himself. His 2011 record Take Care took home the prize for Best Rap Album.
He's also just earned his 72nd appearance on Billboard's Hot 100 chart.
The
accolade makes him eighth on the list of musicians with the greatest
number of hits, surpassing both The Beatles and Sir Elton John, who have
71 and 68 respectively.
The Canadian music artist's Grammy posts
meanwhile come just over a week after he wrapped up his joint Drake vs
Lil Wayne tour with the Southern rapper.
He's currently focused
on his forthcoming album, which he revealed this summer would be titled
Views From the 6. The title is thought to be a reference to his native
Toronto.
