What’s up, Rock Nation! Today we’re joined by Marshal Crews — the founder of Tamed Psychotic, a drop-based clothing brand doing $100K in 30 minutes without spending a dollar on ads. At 17, Marshal was homeless. Now, he’s built one of the most exciting underground streetwear brands online. In this episode, we dive into how he turned personal pain into creative fuel, why scarcity is the secret behind his brand’s success, and what every creator needs to know about building hype, community, and a movement without paid marketing.
