The former Chief Creative Officer at Epic Games, Donald Mustard saw widespread success after Fortnite quickly rose to fame. After \u201c25 years in the game industry\u201d and his name cemented in the history books, Mustard announced on Twitter that he would be retiring earlier this year in September. But it seems he doesn\u2019t plan on going out without a bang, now dishing out and revealing Drake once spammed his phone with text messages, all in hopes of getting some exclusive Fortnite content. \u201cApril 28, 2018. I am at my young daughter\u2019s dance recital,\u201d Mustard wrote, setting the scene. \u201cThe Comet is going to destroy Dusty Depot (not Tilted lol) the next morning \u2013 and set the stage to change EVERYTHING we think of as experiential entertainment (I hope).\u201d As his daughter began to dance on stage in Mustard\u2019s recounting (flossing, to be exact), he claims to have gotten a string of text messages from the God\u2019s Plan rapper; \u201cAnd then I get a text. And then another. I start getting spammed. By Drake. Yeah. That Drake.\u201d According to Mustard, Drake pleaded to gain some insight into what could be expected, citing he couldn\u2019t sleep or work as he was \u201cjust too excited\u201d. \u201cAfter a few hours and much consideration, I sent him this,\u201d Mustard concluded, adding a clip of a character showing off a now-popularized emote. \u201cDrake the type of guy to ask for next season teasers before the event has even happened,\u201d one person commented in response to Mustard\u2019s tweet. Amused, a second person wrote, \u201cSo epic!!
