Shey You Get?: Reimagining Archival Graphics for Modern Conversations

Shey You Get?: Reimagining Archival Graphics for Modern Conversations

Black Molue is built at the intersection of memory and mischief. With this drop, we reimagine what happens when we translate the imported pop culture cues and secondhand symbolisms we grew up on into our own dialect. We use a blend of nostalgia, humor, and cultural commentary to make these references familiar, digestible, and truly ours. The result is “Shey You Get?”, a mix of conversation-starting clothes, wall art, and collectible objects that turn irony into identity. Every piece in the collection carries our shared history in its tone — a study of how culture moves, mutates, and finds its rhythm in new forms. It turns imitation into authorship and localises youth-fueled rebellion, and holds a mirror to our African roots, reminding us that originality isn’t imported, it's always lived here. With attention to detail, quality prints, and symbolic motifs, each piece in the collection is thoughtfully conceptualised and designed to go beyond functionality. We pulled from street corners and social commentary, from everyday noise and absurdity, to build a world that feels both familiar and foreign. This is not nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake, but for continuity. So, we hope you enjoy these pieces as much as we enjoyed making them for you. Because we had a ball.

ASO ROCKERS

ASO ROCKERS

It’s not just a famous hunk of granite sitting in the middle of the world’s third most populous country, it is also the seat of the power and politicking. The Aso Rockers reimagines past Nigerian presidents as an Afrobeat band, blending satire, vintage album art, and political commentary to question what happens when governance starts to look like performance. All the best lies. All the worst hits. Special thanks to the silence of the masses that served as production on this one. All songs were written, stolen, arranged, and performed by the band themselves. We only pressed “record”.

SUPER MARIO BROS

SUPER MARIO BROS

Lagos has always felt like a game you can’t pause. Super Lagos Bros takes that chaos and turns it into familiar art. The print features a real Lagos city map reimagined in nostalgic 8-bit style, complete with landmarks from Third Mainland to Lekki, Ikeja to Banana Island. It’s a playful nod to retro gaming and the daily hustle that somehow feels like a level you never quite finish. Designed for Lagosians who live the madness and anyone who’s ever tried to survive the city’s real-life obstacle course, this is perfect as a gift for anyone who loves both the city and classic video games. We just mapped it out. You’ve been the one playing it all along.
