Inside The Mind Of Tremaine Emory With TheStockroom | TheStockroom Podcast

With the Denim Tears pop up buzzing in the background, TheStockroom has a conversation with the multi-layered and sometimes polarising individual that is Tremaine Emory, a man that isn't always seen but his work is always felt. We talk about Denim Tears being used as a vehicle to tell black stories, the controversy around his time at Supreme and the importance of his family in encouraging his journey. Make sure you have a note pad and pen, you're about to hear some gems!
