RT: @emiliosparks wants to interview @mousebudden

It’s not every day that a DAPS member starts a twitter campaign that goes even semi-viral, so this is pretty fucking cool. See how EmilioSparks used twitter to read Joe Budden!

First off, I know what you’re thinking… Who/What the FUCK is @mousebudden?!?!  For those of you who aren’t hot on the Twittersphere, @mousebudden is the Twitter handle of Rapper Joe Budden, who you might remember from hits like this one:

Now that you’re re-acquainted, I’m going to suggest that you keep that playing as you read on (of if you chose to stop and watch the video… let it play again and then read on)

Last week, DAPS’ @emiliosparks, a fan of Budden’s ‘Joe Budden TV‘ decided that he would like to interview the hip hop star. Emilio, in all of his infinite twisdom called out to his twitter followers…

In a complete testament to Emilio’s current rise to the top of hip-hop news scene, something damn near magical happened. His twitter followers responded, re-tweeting the message over and over again.

And after the first day of incessant @replying to @mousbudden, and the bevvy of re-tweets, Emilio was not done…

…and neither were his followers.

With this much support behind it and more, the “Let me (@emiliosparks) interview @mousebudden” campaign officially reached the man himself… Seriously, who could block Emilio Sparks, right? (Aside from that time that Carlo did)

Then it reached him again, in the form of KerriAnn a friend of DAPS on Facebook, (We’re not sure how she knows him personally either)…But now we <33 her more than anything!

This led to KerriAnn explaining to us the Irony that Emilio isn’t even her Twitter friend. (Emilio,  you should probably get on that LOL)

It also led to a direct correspondence between Emilio and Joe Budden on Twitter…

The ball is now in @mousebudden’s court, however even if nothing else comes from this Emilio Sparks proved that he’s capable of creating a Viralesque Twitter Campaign that can annoy a hip-hop star into considering an interview… Which is OK in our book!

As for emilio, he’s literally praying to go that this can go down… he wants it that bad.

praise-the-lord

maybe god will be willing to Re-tweet…who knows? Follow @emiliosparks, and keep letting @mousebudden know we want to see an interview!

    I think Sparks needs to make a tv spot for this. I want John Mayer re-tweeting “LET THE EMILIO SPARKS WANTS TO INTERVIEW @mousebudden CAMPAIGN BEGIN THE CAPS MEANS IM SERIOUS IT WOULD BE THE GREATEST INTERVIEW EVER!!!”
