Kendrick Lamar and the stunning visuals for his single "HUMBLE" took home the coveted Video of the Year award at this year's MTV VMA awards. It's the fifth award the video has received tonight.

Lamar's "HUMBLE" beat out a slew of stars who had to sit down and be humble in the presence of the G.O.A.T.—including Bruno Mars' "24K Magic," Alessia Cara's "Scars to Your Beautiful," DJ Khaled's "Wild Thoughts" featuring Rihanna and Bryson Tiller, and The Weeknd's "Reminder."

He accepted the award from Wonder Woman's Gal Gadot and gave a sweet but brief thank you to fans and the folks behind the video.
