Drake at the Billboard Music Awards
The 30-year-old rap star surpassed the previous record of 12 set by Adele as he enjoyed a memorable evening in Sin City, where he was handed the best artist accolade by Prince Michael Jackson, the son of the late singer.
On receiving his prize, Drake said: "I just want to say hold tight Adele because when a new ting drops you will crawl your way back to get the record back."
The hip-hop star - who had 22 nominations in total - was awarded a series of gongs prior to the event, before he subsequently collected his remaining prizes, including Top Male Artist, Top Billboard 200 Album and Top Artist.
In the process, he bettered Adele's tally in 2012, when she won 12 awards.
During one of his acceptance speeches, the 'Hotline Bling' hitmaker saluted Ludacris, thereby proving that their feud is now over, while he also professed his love for fellow rapper Nicki Minaj.
Meanwhile, Beyonce also won a number of the biggest prizes, including Top Female Artist, Top Touring Artist and Top R&B Artist, while Zayn Malik was named the Top New Artist.
Elsewhere, Noah Cyrus introduced her older sister Miley to the crowd at the T-Mobile Arena as she performed her new single 'Malibu'.
Noah said her sibling - who recently revealed she's quit using marijuana - is currently the "happiest she's ever been".
The award winners were decided by song sales, streaming, radio airplay, touring and social media interactions over the last 12 months as recorded by Billboard.
