    renmakesmusic.lnk.to/TheHunger
    Poison in my veins
    Lights a flame in my brain
    That maintains the pain that may change my frame of mind
    Blind I design rhymes
    Intertwined, double time
    Genuine frankenstein
    I made a monster
    Conquer music scene, golden ticket Wonka,
    Conjour, lyrics in my belly I got thunder
    Younger, everybody wishes they were younger
    The older I’m getting the more I feel the hunger
    Belter like a welter weight helter-skelter need alka-seltzer
    Alpha, beta, delta I help you into the fall out shelter
    Melt a mind or two with my rhymes you might find you never felt a
    Feeling like this feeling be believing I’m a daemon I’m a devil
    Fuck the game, completed every level I’m a vessel
    For spirits to channel out of my lyrics I’m a devil
    I raise my fist the anti-capitalistic pissed I revel
    In society collapsing, fantastic now pump the treble
    Tick tock off the top of the tip of my tongue I am tapping telepathy
    Terrify them with the terrible telekinesis tantrum yes I torture the enemy
    Slowing the flow and then growing the flow and I swallow the flow like a Toblerone
    Im a beast with the flow, I’m a feast on the flow
    Then I’m ripping it up and I’m taking it low
    Kiddie with a black heart in a car park by Primark
    Jamming Django Reinhardt
    Living like a rockstar refine rap to a fine art
    Vincent Van Gough I start
    Making my mark
    Like Frankie Sinatra
    King call me Arthur
    And my style is homegrown like growing cali weed
    Don’t need no personal trainer I got trainers on my feet
    You know I got the soul in my bowl when I eat
    You know I’m staying grounded when I grind up my beef
    But if you got a problem my brother I might just put on some rubber gloves
    And just choke you till larynx ruptures and blood it just bubbles up
    And the bubbles just double up and you struggle but luck is up
    Cause I’m subtle at covering up the trouble
    Cover up the crime scene, 1990 that’s my scene
    My teen years were spent rolling the Thai-green
    Obscene fiend in a pair of baggy jeans
    Putting backy with the green roll a fatty dopamine starts flowing
    My cerebellum glowing
    The pendulum is slowing
    Im swinging and I’m swaying but I don’t know where I’m going
    Mind running jessie Owens, hallelujah Leonard Cohen
    All these seeds that I’m sewing slowly growing like trees
    I grow then I preach
    Scrap that I teach
    Teach over beats
    To all those that seek
    Teach on these streets
    Streets can be bleak
    But bleak was the place where I rose to my feet

    Ren is a modern Bard. Stories told through words, rhyme, emotion and performance. Not "just" one thing or another, but taking from any genre, style or medium to convey the intention behind the experience.
    I was put onto him via a reactions video and I'm enjoying going through his older stuff and the talent, obvious effort and skill is evident.

I’ve so much thanks for his music . Genius ❤️

    • @thej3799
      @thej3799 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Honesty because Ren is like fusing trip hop vibes with modern sound and so it's like caught between this like valley of nostalgia for this sound like garage beats and old school raps combined with what was trip hop, where you had guys like tricky almost rapping over a very electronic melodic sound and of course then you had massive attack portishead fuck I had an ex-girlfriend it really liked morcheeba, anyway it's got that kind of playful back and forth where you can never really settle I mean try to class massive attack into a genre you can't and so try to class Ren into a genre you can't. But our prevailing culture wants to class everything into everything stuff that spectral definitely has its place it's a message that people hear as long as they're meant to hear it and I don't think Ren minds. If you listen to his music is clear he doesn't give a shit He's happy when it's hard to the people that need to hear it and that's how it works.

      I think Ren is an actual Renaissance Man. A revolution and a revelation in one. The exploration of our dark and light traits, the struggle that it is just to live some days. All of these concepts resonate with a lot of people. I'd like to believe they would resonate with everyone, but people often embody the battle we have within ourselves. Both sides. I like that Ren addresses the sort of paradox that humans represent.

    Ren deserves the Nobel prize for literature and poetry! He transcends popular culture & speaks from a place beyond the limits of time, trends & fads. I suppose it comes from that nonlinear place within sometimes called “Truth”? I’m grateful for his courage but concerned by it too. Too much truth historically invites tragedy. John Lennon, Tupac, MLK, Gandhi, Lincoln, JFK, you get the point. Anyway, thanks for sharing your divine gift of words with the world.

Between you and Chinchilla man would give anything to see yall perform especially when you guys are on the streets!! It's my favorite 😍 so thank you for being such a massive part of my mental recovery please don't ever stop!!! Much ❤️ !!

    I cannot stop watching reaction videos to all of your music, and I've never done that before. It took me a while to understand why. I usually watch a couple reacts to a song when it moves me, but it's like every single work of art moves me to the point where I want to relive that first time feeling of awe through others seeing it the first time whether they're bopping their heads uncontrollably or making that scrunched up face that people only make when they're feeling a super filthy beat, or whether they're jumping up and down at the sheer joy of what they just witnessed, or bawling their eyes out, or vibrating with an overwhelming feeling of hope or just silently sitting there in a stunned state of reverence or even introspection. I've had every one of those reactions at one point or another during my dive into your music, and I'm literally only about 8 songs in, but I have to stop at every one and find all the reactions I can before I move on. Anyway, you're not likely to see this, but if you do, as a 45 year old mother of a daughter in her 20s who has been through both physical & mental struggles all of her life, your music gives ME a sense of hope for her future. She's enjoying your music too, which seems to inexplicably defy age, gender, time, and genre. You're a once in a lifetime phenomenon & I'm here for it.

    I've been hooked on Ren's art (I won't call it music, because it's well beyond that) for the last several weeks. I can't stop!

    "Putting backy with the green roll a fatty dopamine starts flowing" best line in the whole song, the word play between dope and dopamine is literally seamlessly switching the sentence

    Admittedly I have specifically played 0:35-0:44 sooo many times. I love the different inflections of the voice, especially “for spirits to channel out of my lyrics-.” It’s cool when an artist can add that extra emotion on a specific word or line, and have fun with it.

    I'm 52 years young and I have always had a really deep passion for music of most genre.
    Ren fuses all genres 2 form HIS own original sound. These days that 'originality' is rare 2 say the least. His lyrics are relevant and resonates these times we are all living out. His musical talents are on par with classical composers of old. Keep on,keeping on rocking Ren!!! LOVE,PEACE & RESPECT BROTHER!

    My favourite part is the person high in the background who stops to have a look what's going on, then waves - and then at the end Ren turns around and we see the gawker was just following instructions. Absolute legend.

    Every time I get to the "like Franky Sinatra, King, call me Arthur" part I get excited, just like the "bubbles up" part. 😂 I love his word play and melody switch ups. He's very talented in the art. 🤌👌 I'll stop there.

  • @pefox2561

    I have to watch it 20 times to understand what's going on... the sound effects, your beatboxing, your words, the hole setting, your facial expression, your acting, your body control, your voice, woman in the back, also wondering wtf is going on, all that in a one shot video. You're awesome and it's a pleasure to hear your music!❤ THANK YOU SO MUCH

  • @christianmack3303
    @christianmack3303 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    FIRE, dude! F*cking hell. I was introduced to Ren by "Hi Ren," which is the greatest piece of performance art I've seen in ages. I can't believe your versatility, poetry, delivery of heart wrenching inner truths, melodies, ability to create emotion by manipulating the sounds on your guitar.....I haven't been able to get your music out of my mind. I've been waking up every day for the last week thinking about and feeling your art. I don't think I've ever been so moved by any one artist. You have my love and utmost respect. THANK YOU

    I'm a 30 year guitar and piano player with perfect pitch. I use to do production for major artists. I was a guitar tech for multiple top bands. In all my life I have never seen someone so creative with their voice. How he integrates it with the music is next level. If society has any appreciation for talent Ren will be as big as Ed Sheeran.

    Ren, I'm not really sure how to express my appreciation to you and your art. A coworker threw Hi Ren in my very overwhelmed lap about a month ago and I haven't been able to even consider digging myself out of this rabbit hole yet... you are a blinding spot in my trajectory right now and I soak up every minute of your teaching. It’s amazing how simple words and beautiful music can change the course if done in the right way, and you have taken it to another level! My kids and I appreciate you more than you know, and of course I fast forward through the F bombs 💣 lol. I respect how you use them though, unlike most so-called artists. You are truly 1 of a kind ✨️ I hope to see you live one day and keep doing what you are doing ❤
