Who said you can't replicate viral success? After the Beyoncé "Drunk In Love" emoji video went highly viral earlier this month, Vimeo user Jesse Hill has done it again. Today (March 17), he's back with another viral, emoji-led lyric video for the standout Rick Ross Mastermind track "Sanctified."
Following the pattern of "Drunk In Love," the clip for "Sanctified" blends together traditional iPhone emojis with a few other images and some good ol' fashion flash animation.
Making good use of the religious-themed emoji selections, churches, praying hands and even a thunder cloud to represent the Almighty are used heavily throughout the clip.
There's also the return of the dirty eggplant. But this time, it's added to a pair of lips, so you can really never look at the vegetable the same way again. Sorry, Olive Garden...

Though this clip lacks the startling originality of the "Drunk In Love" video, it's still totally hilarious in all the right (and wrong) ways, plus there's no denying this track is hot as hell. Though originally posted last week, the video is making its way around the Internet now, with nearly 14,000 views in 24 hours.

"Sancitfied" is a track from Rick Ross' latest album Mastermind, which dropped earlier this month and landed straight at No. 1 on the US Albums Chart. The track has yet to be a single, though.
