He had his chance to shine but his E.P & 2 LP'S from 92 - 95 weren't as good as the rest of the West, the production could have been a lot better if the Ruthless family produced his albums, still had some bangers but not classics, his comeback album in 98 was a respectable comeback album
Ren was lyrical. He really shined on 100 Miles & Runnin' and Niggaz4Life. He was the highlight of those projects in my opinion. I wish he would've had a more successful solo career.
Hell yeah!!!!! That verse was the shit!!!! He was smooth cool and laying down some dope lyrics.. (Raiders ball cap and parka coat) those were the days..
@@heir_to_the_promise the music establishment & so-called fans who only think 2-Short, E-40, Snoop Dogg and Ice Cube are the only West Coast hip-hop pioneers
Shock of the Hour and The Villian in Black are 2 of my favorite albums I've listened to 1000s of times. Mc Ren is a pioneer and innovator. Rest in Peace to Dj Train.
Ren saw Full Metal Jacket and changed his mind about going into the military. Good choice. I already signed my life to the USMC when I first saw Full Metal Jacket. It just made me more motivated. That was 12 years ago for me.
Excellent video, I’ve read all of the books (Jerry Hellers Ruthless, Dr Dre Unauthorized Bio….) and still learned from watching. Ren used to be my favorite member of NWA. His voice was so ill & his writing was ahead of it’s time.
Been listening to NWA since 88 and bumping them. MC Ren is definitely underrated and in my Top 5 under Scareface and Kool G Rap. Ren have them hype dope lyrics. Big up to Ren, love You bro. I'll play Your music forever G🔥❤️💯
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Your channel is cool Ren never got the same credit as Dre & Cube I did get sick of people hollering over them like Ren wasn't part of the NWA movement.
I'm sorry but Ren was my favorite MC in NWA. I really wished they had did more tracks that included DOC. They had a helluva roster. Above The Law was 🔥🔥🔥 too.
I've never understood how ren is underrated. He and Cube were the best 2 writers and rappers of NWA but history has been rewritten and anyone who isn't a genuine NWA fan could easily believe he was a weaker member of the group
@@ja2415 remember Straight Outta Compton on Niggazz4life . Surprise Nigga . Lol , anyway Ren had a bigger part and he couldn't step up . I'm not saying he sucked but....
MC REN, was the nicest out of all of them, his Cadence, and lyricism was accepted by many brothers from New York at a time ,when NYC was accused of shiting on the west coast.
Cube was raw, Eazy was that real G, Dre could flow(him and Yella both had great beat making skills), but Ren had the smoothest flow. He stayed in pocket the most. But all of them were stronger when united.
Mc Ren & The D.O.C. are two artists from the westcoast from that era of late 80s/early 90s I feel like had so much potential that didn't get to reach their full potential. Same is also with The Outlawz
The first 5 albums I ever bought were in 1993 when I was in 5th grade, Brand Nubian Allah U Akbar, Onyx Bacdafucup, Kris Kross Da bomb, Wu Tang 36 Chambers and MC Ren Shock of the Hour.. great year for rap
After Cube left, dumbass! Cube wrote most of Straight out of Compton, except for Ren verses. He also wrote most of Eazy's lyrics on his debut Eazier said than dun and groups most popular song BoyzNtheHood at 16yrs old. #FOH
@@Fire_Storm78 Whoa.. Dumbass ?... Not that serious Phuck face... Like I said , The DOC wrote rhymes for eazy. As well as , ren and cube. B4 and after cube left.... Don't let cube, think he did EVERYTHING... Cause The DOC was ah problem... Don't think cube wasn't threatened by , the DOC. Cube rewrote his verse, on the doc album. Cause he thought, the doc verse was better... Which it was... Btw , Ren wrote the majority of Eazy does it.... While cube was away at college.. He seen that shit popped, that nigga dropped outta college. And headed str8 to Compton... Did u kno that , dumbass ?..
@@Bam-sw1bq D.O.C never wrote for Cube. He's dope as fuck look at Cube's catalog as a solo rapper! 10 of all time easily! As far as I'm concerned it's a 3 way tie between Cube Face & Pac! He doesn't get the recognition he truly deserves because he started making movie money. Just imagine his catalog if he would stuck to just rapping! D.O.C is that nigga but his pen can't fuck with Cube's.

I watched 5 of your vids and they were dope! Only thing I've seen wrong is Ja Rule dissed Bone Thugs on his 1st album in the late 90's... You claimed it didn't start until Rule's 3rd album. I subscribed and will try to help point out any errors that I personally know of...
I'd like to know more about the meaning and motivation for his last two music videos: Mad Scientist and Ruthless for Life. Mad Scientist focuses on using a coffin as a red herring/bait and Ruthless for Life parodies the beginning of Friday the 13th 5 and 6.
Wren was dope. He don't get the recognition but gotta give him hella props too. That group was the perfectly fit group. And don't forget DOC also. #McRen
Wow That Crazy I didn't know Ren Was a Gemini Me Him and Tupac Birthday Day is June 16th I knew something was special about him as a matter of fact lce cube and Ren Was my favorite in the group not forgetting about Easy E I'm just getting my Gemini on Lol 7777
Ren on "If it ain't ruff" is still one of my all time favorites.
YESSSSSSSSSSS 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 PREEEEEEEEEACH💯💯💯💯
Right
Same....
th-cam.com/video/7aleRvCrXp4/w-d-xo.html
Ren is the villian and youre just a hostage so whenever im stepping cover your head like a ostrich!!! Hell Yeah!!
I always thought REN shoulda gotten more props but when you’re in a group with Ice Cube,Dr. Dre & Eazy E it’s not that easy to shine
He had his chance to shine but his E.P & 2 LP'S from 92 - 95 weren't as good as the rest of the West, the production could have been a lot better if the Ruthless family produced his albums, still had some bangers but not classics, his comeback album in 98 was a respectable comeback album
He was the second best after cube
Don't forget the DOC was around them too! hard to outshine that lineup
Ren was more lyrically than all them doe Cube was hard ASF but think Ren was more lyrically
Ren has some of my favorite verse in hip hop history
Ren was lyrical. He really shined on 100 Miles & Runnin' and Niggaz4Life. He was the highlight of those projects in my opinion. I wish he would've had a more successful solo career.
Kizz my black azz
His verse on " Ballad of a Menace" is dope!!
It's dope 😎🔥
You know a great verse when you hear it bro. It's definitely dope af.
Maan, the CPO group/album Ren put on was that ish.
Hell yeah!!!!! That verse was the shit!!!!
He was smooth cool and laying down some dope lyrics.. (Raiders ball cap and parka coat) those were the days..
Dat sssshhhhh wit CPO is a forgetten cult classic. I used to watch it on "the box" .
Still got the tape
One of the most underrated rappers ever.
Hands down!!

I STILL PLAY "IF IT AIN'T RUFF" TILL THIS VERY DAY!!!
If it ain't ruff it at me, the VILLAIN
For real
I love Ren! He’s apart of history!!
One of the best story telling rap songs of all time was made by MC Ren called "Behind The Scenes". If only there was a music video for that.
Excellent content well appreciated Mc ren is in my top 10 west coast artist !
Most underrated rapper of all time. Shock of the hour was one of the greatest albums of all time. Been listening to his music since 91 to this day
Been listening to NWA since 88 and bumping them. MC Ren is definitely underrated and in my Top 5 under Scareface and Kool G Rap. Ren have them hype dope lyrics. Big up to Ren, love You bro. I'll play Your music forever G🔥❤️💯
When they came out....REN was my favorite.... period
Right up my alley is Mc Ren's best song IMO
"Check it Out" is one of the hottest intros ever...bassline is crazy..

I WILL ALWAYS LOVE THE BALLAD OF A MENACE WITH LIL NATION VIDEO AND SONG
Ren was the Piccolo of NWA: vastly underrated
Ren is a top 15 Mc all time. Doesn’t get enough recognition
Legend. Appreciate the video.
Man I love mc ren flow!!!💯 It's was like no other an I'm a 95 baby 👌👌👌 Da song real niggaz was that pressure 💨
I used rewind and listen to Ren's flow on NWA's "Always into something"...lol
I love NWA but MC REN is who I relate to the most
I've never understood how ren is underrated. He and Cube were the best 2 writers and rappers of NWA but history has been rewritten and anyone who isn't a genuine NWA fan could easily believe he was a weaker member of the group
He ain't underated. He's just.....there. His part on Strait Outta Compton wasn't shit.

You are clueless about lyricists if you THINK Ren was better than CUBE! #FOH
"Is America like ancient Rome"...shock of the hour album..I like it
I MET REN IN FOOT ACTION IN THE LATE 80s IT WAS COOL IN THE MALL OF MEMPHIS
Cube was raw, Eazy was that real G, Dre could flow(him and Yella both had great beat making skills), but Ren had the smoothest flow. He stayed in pocket the most. But all of them were stronger when united.
Ren was sooo underrated! I always thought he was the best next to Ice cube 🤔 He should be bigger than he is today!💯

The Villian in Black is crazy underrated
Damn this a good doc. Ren definitely slept on.
Shock of the Hour is a produced well, for the budget he had. A lot of good lyrics he has written some amazing tracks.
Ren's solo shit is bomb! Behind The Scenes is krazy!
Ballet of a Menace was the shit I still be banging it
Glad to see ren getting his flowers
Ren is definitely in the Top 10
