"When you're doing what you're supposed to, everything clicks." Davin is a designer, artist, and co-founder of the clothing brands Premium Co. and Diet Starts Monday. Raised by his mother in Madisonville, Kentucky, Davin grew up in a trailer park, and would often struggle with his identity. Dealing with issues of race and wealth, Davin would find himself escaping through worlds of skating, basketball, and drawing. But it wasn't until after high school, when he would fully tap into his creative side. Influenced by legendary painter, Bob Ross, Davin began to hand paint t-shirts and sell them to all the DJ crews, rappers and artists throughout the music scene. Gully Originals was born and would last for six years, as Davin committed to laying the foundation of his entrepreneur path. Soon expanding to graphic design, and creating mixtape covers, Davin was becoming one of the most sought out artists among the community, with his name and reputation spreading fast. His ability to evolve and continue to create would lead him to expand to jewelry, and soon combine forces with Tyler Hundley to organically create Premium Co., and later join together with John Geiger to form Diet Starts Monday.Davin believes in the long term of brand building, embracing the right and wrong decisions that lead you to where you need to be, and looking at life like a ladder, with every step as a step up. Focus on creating, and what you believe in, and whatever direction that takes you in...follow it. Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Davin Gentry. #MamaWeMadeItFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM http://bit.ly/MamaWeMadeIt-IG http://bit.ly/Anoush-IG http://bit.ly/Joe-IG https://www.instagram.com/davin_gentrySUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST: http://bit.ly/MamaWeMadeItPodcastSUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL - http://bit.ly/MamaWeMadeIt-YTFACEBOOK - @mamawemadeitpodhttps://mamawemadeit.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Hosts Noah Thomas and Jian DeLeon are joined by Davin Gentry and Scooty Hallums of Washington DC-based label and nightlife spot Diet Starts Monday and cozy clothing brand Premium Co. They discuss Hedi Slimane's debut at Celine (minus the accent over the "e"), and talk about how despite the criticism, it might make good business sense for the label. As one of the guests points out—that doesn't necessarily mean it's a good thing for fashion. Then something surprising happens when we start to get into the listener voicemails. We asked if Kanye West is too far gone to redeem himself, given the delay of his latest album Yahndi, and his continued support of Trump and other right-wing figures like Alex Jones. After receiving more than 70 voicemails, the ones that end up in the show paint a beautiful, dark, twisted reality of his fanbase now.

Davin Gentry is a creator and artist who is the co-founder behind both Premium Co and Diet Starts Monday. Even with seeing himself on a billboard in Los Angeles, having hundreds of people waiting outside of his store or taking pictures with fans, it all feels natural to him because he feels he’s doing what he’s supposed to be doing at the time he’s supposed to be doing it. Growing up in Madisonville, Kentucky he was embarrassed as a kid to admit he lived in a trailer park with his mother and would get dropped off blocks away so his friends wouldn’t know. One of his early passions was basketball which was what kept him focused and out of the streets. Finishing up high school he attended community college for a year and a half and then transferred to Western Kentucky and majored in Advertising. After graduating he sold hand painted shirts for six years until he and Tyler Hundley got Premium Co off the ground in 2011. A text conversation with designer John Geiger about only working out in order to fit into designer clothes led to the launch of their clothing line Diet Starts Monday in 2017. Incorporating the idea of procrastinating diets, they launched what was planned to be a 3 month pop-up event that turned into a full year round operating restaurant and retail space in Washington, D.C. With a recent collaboration with Five Four, they’re just getting warmed up with what has yet to come for the brand. In this episode Davin discusses the balance of making what we want and what the customer is looking for, building the right relationships sets us up for a promising future, his definition of success is being financially stable enough to create what he wants, recognizing that some things are completely out of our control, his day-to-day routines and appreciating all the bumps and bruises that have helped get him to where he is today. - You can follow Davin here: Instagram: @Davin_Gentry You can follow Premium Co here: Instagram: @Premium_Co You can follow Diet Starts Monday here: Instagram: @DietStartsMonday__ Follow Bobbbaaaay on social media: Instagram: @Bobbbaaaay Twitter: @Bobbbaaaay Subscribe to our YouTube Channel for new interviews (and more) Follow us on Spotify Follow us on Soundcloud Subscribe to iTunes Follow us on Instagram: @PurposeintheYouth
