Trademark what? In order to trademark something you actually have to use it for "trade" i.e. sell something with it. It was just a phrase him and his homies used and it took a life of it's own. He never intended on selling "pause" shirts which no one even sells now so what money would have been in that?
nikkas just trying to sound smart to sound smart. There is literally nothing to trademark there. Same with any other catch phrase that goes viral. You didn't know it was going to go viral. People trademark things they actually intend to sell.

Why did you take my post serious???
Next, where in my original post did I state that I knew his intentions?
Furthermore, it is plausible that he could have used the word PAUSE and put it on a shirt, mug, ballon, trucker hat or banner to make money.
No different than what Pepsi, Coke, Sprite did when they took a word that was invented by someone, and said word became a brand which was trademarked and they became staple brands sold all over the world.
Now...
The reason why I even responded to this thread was to make a statement to the relevance of why Same Dash felt the need to let the world know that he coined the phrase "Pause". Was it for bragging rights? Since when does bragging rights mean anything??
So, it isn't far fetched for someone to make up a word, phrase, slogan up to a sentence to find a way to monetize off of it.
Baby did it with " Put some respekt on it" and put it on a shirt. This is a fact because I bought a shirt from him on his website back in the day.
Lastly, I have no issue with you disagreeing with anything I say on this site, but I take exception to you questioning my intelligence based on your disagreement. I am far from being unintelligent!
. He said it was his crew Best Out which means it wouldve been like late 80s early 90s. First time I heard it on a song was Jay Z on Money Cash Hoes. And first time I heard No Homo it was Cam. The evidence adds up...
