When Davido dropped the official merch for his much-anticipated album 5IVE, it wasn’t the reaction his team likely expected. Released via Amazon, the designs were met with lukewarm responses—many fans labeling them uninspired, tacky, and unworthy of an album so hyped. But in true Gen Z fashion, the internet didn’t wait around for a fix. Instead, a wave of fan-made concept pieces started surfacing online—mockups that reimagined what 5IVE merch could’ve looked like if passion, culture, and detail had led the creative direction. From vintage tour-style tees to streetwear-ready graphics, these unofficial designs captured the energy fans felt the official drop missed.
