KEEP IT REALSerial 75578755 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Keep It Real Records, Inc.
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Oct 28, 1998
Registered Nov 30, 1999
The record shows that “KEEP IT REAL” is no longer active – the Principal Register registration (No. 2295996) was cancelled on September 2, 2006 because the owner, Keep It Real Records, Inc., did not file a required Section 8 declaration, and the file now lists the mark as dead. The registration covered only Class 009 goods – specifically pre‑recorded audio cassettes, vinyl records, video cassettes and compact discs that contain musical sound or audiovisual recordings – so a later use of the same wording on similar media would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the phrase in other categories. There is no indication of oppositions, cancellations beyond the Section 8 event, or other enforcement activity in the history provided. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use “Keep It Real” for comparable audio‑visual products.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
