(AllHipHop News) Rapper Jay-Z has filed paperwork to trademark his signature diamond figure hand sign.
The “Empire State of Mind” hitmaker has been flashing the Roc-A-Fella Records diamond sign for several years and he is now seeking to obtain exclusive rights to it.
In 2005, the 48-year-old was sued by former wrestler Diamond Dallas Page over the use of the hand symbol, because it closely resembled his Diamond Cutter gesture.
The trademark infringement lawsuit was settled out of court in 2007.
