In a standout achievement, Morgan Wallen secured 11 wins at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards, marking the most significant one-year tally since Drake’s 12 awards in 2019.

Taylor Swift also made history, winning 10 BBMAs, bringing her career total to 39 and tying her with Drake for the most of all time.

Drake, who won five awards this year, reached a total of 39, making Swift and Drake the top winners in BBMA history.

Among Wallen’s victories were the awards for Top Billboard 200 Album (“One Thing at a Time”) and Top Hot 100 Song (“Last Night”). This dual accomplishment hasn’t been achieved by an artist since Usher in 2004 with “Confessions” and the hit “Yeah!” featuring Lil Jon & Ludacris.
