The Story of InkN8tion - Ink N8tion was built from pure passion, raw talent, and an unshakable belief in turning art into legacy. Founded by PGdidit, a visionary tattoo artist from Flint, Michigan, InkN8tion was never just about tattoos—it was about creating a movement where art, culture, and purpose collide.

PG’s journey started with a steady hand, a vivid imagination, and a gift for bringing stories to life through black and gray realism. But it wasn’t just skill—it was vision. PG wanted more than a shop. He wanted a nation. A platform. A place where real ones could express themselves through ink, where creativity had no cap, and where the environment bred excellence.

Alongside him from the ground up is Ant tha Barber—a true artist with the clippers and an even sharper business mind. While Ink N8tion is PG’s brainchild, Ant has been instrumental in helping build its foundation, holding it down not only in the shop but also in the brand’s expansion. Together, PG and Ant created Straight Drop, a premium line of handcrafted tattoo aftercare products that reflect their standard for quality, healing, and self-care.

This team is more than two artists—they’re brothers in business, pushing boundaries in their crafts, mentoring the next generation, and staying rooted in the culture that raised them.
