The Most Podcast - Episode 28: HYPEPEACE

The amazing and purpose-driven founders of London-based streetwear label with a heart HYPEPEACE, Jenn & Michael, sit down with your host Dominique to retrace how they went from somewhat hesitantly printing a few bootleg T-shirts in 2016 to becoming an incredible force for change, supporting all-important causes and raising funds and political awareness for people living in the Occupied Territories of the West Bank, Syria and many others. You know and treasure their ‘Palestine’ tri-ferg design, their new Protest Gear and your faves - from Noah ‘40’ Shebib to M.I.A - show their love for HYPEPEACE too.

On this episode, Jenn shares her story from growing up in the Philippines to studying fashion design in London and Michael retraces how hip-hop and Rage Against The Machine have impacted his life every step of the way. Find out how the two met and how the brand evolved naturally to becoming a bullhorn for political change via fashion. The three discuss shifts in streetwear and harnessing hype culture to communicate messages of equity, justice and anti-racism. Jenn & Michael also talk being a community-based brand, staying focused and share their advice to young creators - as well as send out a global open call for collabs - plus share their major plans ahead. That and so much more.
