Cardi B’s “okurrr”
It appears Simmons wasn’t the only musician vying for a trademark. Rapper Cardi B filed to trademark her iconic “okurrr” catchphrase in 2019.
The phrase’s registration was denied, however, on the basis that it was a “commonplace term, message, or expression widely used by a variety of sources that merely conveys an ordinary, familiar, well-recognized concept or sentiment.” Sorry, Cardi.
