Crowd Nine: Igniting Passion

captured by royel, fashion district, 2025

stargazers! today, we're diving into the world of "crowd nine" and the inspiration behind its striking cover art. my friends and i created crowd nine to spark a fire in all you suburban bros, urging you to break free from the mundane and chase what truly sets your soul ablaze.

when it came to designing the cover art, we drew inspiration from those classic old gap and abercrombie ads. remember the ones with effortlessly cool vibes and a sense of timeless style? we wanted to capture that essence, blending nostalgia with a fresh, modern twist. it’s all about embracing authenticity and individuality, just like those iconic ads did.

so, what's the message behind crowd nine? it's simple: life’s not just about degrees, picket fences, and mortgages. it's about finding what makes you come alive and pursuing it with everything you've got. we're here to remind you that you're not alone on this journey. together, we can break the mold and redefine what success truly means.

join us on this adventure and let’s inspire each other to live boldly and passionately. after all, we’re better together, and the world’s waiting for your unique spark.
