Drake's Grammys Acceptance Speech Was SO Raw That He Was Cut Off Mid-Sentence

Every once in a while, a stud in a polo neck [1] appears on our TV screens and we turn into the heart-eye emoji. On Sunday night, that stud was Aubrey Graham [2], aka Drake. The rapper surprised everyone when he appeared on stage to accept the award for best rap song [3] for his work on "God's Plan," but it was his reflective acceptance speech that had everyone tuned in. In fact, the speech was so poignant that it was cut off, and both viewers and audience members were left confused.

"We're playing in an opinion-based sport, not a factual-based sport," Drake started his speech. "The point is: you've already won if you have people who are singing your songs word for word. If you're a hero in your hometown. . . You don't need this right here I promise you. You already won." Watch the video ahead and see how everyone's reacting to Drake's acceptance speech at the Grammys.
