Cardi B and Offset are known as one of hip-hop's it couples, but apparently, that isn't the image McDonald's is looking for.
According to reports, McDonald's franchisees are not too pleased to have the couple aboard the fast food giant's train all because of the lyrics of their music.
They even pulled out the "Golden Arches Code," and cited a particular clause noting that "Partnerships with celebrities and influencers that have potential risk to damage our brand based on statements they have made or their positions on certain issues" are not allowed.
This all stems back to a very specific section of the Code that says "Music partnerships associated with content that includes offensive language in the lyrics."
Music fans should know by now that both Cardi B and Offset have used some pretty colorful language in their songs, after all, they are rappers and they're only playing the hip-hop game.
