Day Won

Day Won

Day Won is more than a music crew—it’s a brotherhood. Made up of Chay, Gordo Cachedro, Illyel Bicsby, and many more, the group came together with a shared mission: make meaningful music, build their fanbase organically, and create visuals that reflect the life they live and the people they ride for. Every member brought something different to the table—and together, they built something real.

The Challenge

The Challenge

Breaking through in Los Angeles—arguably the most saturated music market in the world—requires more than talent. It takes consistency, clarity, and creative infrastructure. Day Won had the sound and the message, but needed a cohesive strategy, brand identity, and system for telling their story over time—without blowing the budget.

What We Did

What We Did

Over two years and across three major projects, we worked with Day Won to develop their sound, look, and storytelling ecosystem. From Chay’s journal-like solo drops to collaborative bangers with Gordo and Illyel, we made sure everything fed into the bigger picture of building a recognizable, trusted, and respected brand.


  • Branding + Creative Direction for the collective and each individual artist to ensure alignment while allowing uniqueness

  • Shot and produced 10+ music videos, each intentionally crafted to reflect their story, crew dynamics, and growth

  • Captured content during every shoot, including BTS clips, photos, and microcontent to maximize budget and usage

  • Developed a long-term rollout strategy, combining video releases, singles, and targeted ads to feed fan interest

  • Created a visual universe fans could step into—familiar, honest, and consistent across all touchpoints

  • Built a vibe that matched their music: chill, rooted in loyalty, and focused on taking care of your people

  • Showcased collaboration, helping each artist grow their own profile while lifting up the Day Won name as a whole
