Basset Hound Wants Royalties for Yolo



You only live once and, in this lifetime, Drake wants to see royalties from companies using the acronym "YOLO."

"YOLO" is an acronym for "you only live once" and is typically used as rationale or endorsement for impulsive or irresponsible behavior, according to Oxford Dictionaries. The term was popularized in Drake's 2011 song, "The Motto," which appears as a bonus track on his album "Take Care." In "The Motto," Drake sings: "Now she want a photo, you already know, though/ You only live once: that's the motto n***a, YOLO."

On Tuesday, Drake uploaded two photos of items emblazoned with "YOLO" from Walgreens and Macy's and asked the stores to either cut the YOLO merchandise or cut him some checks.






Honestly do they to know they're douchebags?
RUH-ROH, SHAGGY

Lol really? He might have popularized the acronym, but he didn't come up with the saying, so no.

Yea but its the acronym that's getting so much attention right now. So really they could get out of it if they just spelled it out lol
holypotatoes1 27th-Dec-2012 01:33 am (UTC)
Yeah, he didn't come up with the phrase "you only live once" so like the 1st comment, shut up drake.

Are the other four writers of that track suing or just him?

Also Rick Ross as the two first started promoting the term together for an abandoned joint mixtape.
dubiously 27th-Dec-2012 01:36 am (UTC)
Do not besmirch the majestic basset hound with such an association.

Umm he's like a yr late.
holyfrijoles_2 27th-Dec-2012 01:36 am (UTC)
i know he didn't come up with the phrase, but i'm pretty sure he was the one who popularized the acronym. so using that logic i can see where he would want compensation. but unless he copyrighted it idk if he can actually get it.

then again all i know about law is what i learned from law and order so.....

When I read it, I was painstakingly rolling my eyes. But then, if I started something and it got popularized, I'd want some loyalties too to pay off student loans. Ha!
galagooo 27th-Dec-2012 02:52 am (UTC)
Drake dropped out of high school. He doesn't have student loans.
