5 gum teamed up with Yungblud, the musician and Gen Z icon, and New York City luxury jeweler and artist Greg Yuna for the Masterpieces campaign. There are 15 limited-edition luxury necklaces that can be won by fans, each of which features a real piece of gum chewed by Yungblud during his United States tour in September.
Specifically, Cobalt Peppermint 5 gum was chewed as part of the musician's pre-concert ritual and the jewelry pieces that were created as a result encapsulate the energy, excitement and anticipation before stepping onstage.
With this campaign, 5 gum is bringing its brand to life, which is all about getting people to "embrace the thrill of taking a chance, pushing the limits of their craft, and doing what makes them feel alive," as stated in a press release.
