"YOLO" Trademark Holder Calls Drake Out!

Tim Petrillo, the real trademark owner of the phrase "YOLO," decided to put Drake in his place for telling retailers to stop using the phrase, because he made it popular in his song "The Motto." Petrillo says he trademarked the phrase back in 2010, way before Drake released his song. Petrillo named his Fort Lauderdale restaurant YOLO, and when the blog Clean Plate Charlie asked him about Drake's lawsuit threats, he responded by saying "I think Drake saying that is such a joke." The New York Post also called Drake out on his threats, revealing that the phrase has been used throughout history since the 1700's.

Tyga recently released his latest project, "The Gold Album," on Spotify, SoundCloud, and YouTube for free due to his conflicts with YMCMB, so the rapper was shocked that he was getting criticism over album sales. The L.A.-born emcee took to Twitter to respond to Complex writing a story about how Nielsen SoundScan showed the album selling a mere 2,200 copies. Tyga said that he didn't even intend to make money off of the project and added, "Yall mfs is funny. I put my album out myself for free on spotify,soundcloud, YouTube to stream. Didn't plan on selling it Kuz of label problems. It's a dope album. Got a lot of great feedback and millions of streams."

Fellow West Coast rapper Game already stepped up in Kendrick's defense on Twitter not too long ago, and now Big Hutch of Above The Law has chosen to defend Kendrick as well. Hutch spoke to Yahoo Music about Shyne using Twitter to slay Kendrick's new album by calling it "trash" over and over again. Hutch didn't respect that one bit and feels as though it was a "cowardly" move. "I don't really get that. I don't get Twitter bashing, Twitter banging. We don't do that. I'm an ex-con. I thought he was an ex-con. That's how that man eat. That's how Kendrick Lamar eat. So, for you to publicly say something is trash, that's just a hater move. got no issue with Shyne, but I have issue with cats Twitter bangin'. At the end of the day, c'mon gangsta, do it the right way. Come to one of his shows...
