Albie Rosario is the Men’s Lifestyle
Marketing Director at Stance Socks, which is currently one of
the most cutting edge, forward thinking clothing
brands in the game. You’ve probably seen a number of their
incredible artist collaborations, including Tupac, A
Tribe Called Quest, Michael Jackson’s Thriller, and many
more.
In this episode, Albie takes us
through his journey from DJing parties to
his beginnings at LRG to his time at The Hundreds to his
current role at Stance. We wanted to speak with
Albie because of the importance of brand partnerships and apparel in an artist’s
career, and because he has years of experience working with
artists and marrying fashion with music.
In
celebration of our 8th episode, we're giving away
Stance’s “Praise” Collection to a lucky listener, featuring
three pairs of socks with Notorious B.I.G., Eazy-E, and
Aaliyah.
In order to
win, just email your favorite Biggie, Eazy, or Aaliyah track to
podcast@focusednoise.com.
The
8th person to email us will win. We’ll reach out and get your
address and mail you the socks. Very
simple.
