    Something that doesn't seem to get enough recognition is the fact these reactors are all different races, genders, ages and even a couple of different nationalities but they're all just as moved and united and feel it all the same way. Goes to show no matter who you are, some pieces of art cut down to our core as humans and move us all in the same way

    This isn’t just music. It’s art. My demons have been with me since birth & they grew, as I did, getting stronger when fueled by the cruelties of the world. My loved ones don’t seem to understand this concept, but I no longer fight my demons. I softened, as Ren put it, and now we walk, fight, and survive together. I will always strive to do good things for myself and to be selfish in the way I must be in order to protect my mental health. But we should not feed them with our own hatred of ourselves. We are human. We all have demons, and to battle for happiness is what living is about. ❤

    REN wrote this song (in my heart and soul) for my late son Alex. He fell into a depression after the isolation of COVID. He struggled with alcohol addiction his entire teenage to adult life. He “celebrated” 5 years sober in the ICU trying to recover from pneumonia and eventually the failure of multiple organs. I so wish for many things for Alex…he would have appreciated this song! He struggled with bipolar disorder and this song reminds me of his battles. Take care, REN 💔

    So, I discovered Ren literally last week, I am upset at myself for not finding out about this dude sooner. I have watched more reaction videos to Ren’s songs than I ever had for anyone else combined. Dude is amazing on so many levels. And if you haven’t heard, Ren’s album Sick Boi achieved #1 Album in the UK Charts on Friday, just 7 days after it dropped. Ren deserves the good things and he is definitely going places.

    I'm still so glad my brother introduced me to Rens music back in 2017, his music really helped me while my mental health deteriorated over the past 2 years. I remember siting in my dads car while my brother had a playlist on and he played "do you believe" as it became 2nd nature for me and my siblings to sing along even though we barley understood English, his music made me understand that having mental health issues is more common and acceptable then I could ever think.

    I never understood what Sister Roberta Flack was trying to tell teenager me all those years ago.
    'Killing me softly'? Ugh, poetic imagery in popular music. Gimmee Rock and Roll!
    [most of a lifetime passes]
    Then I heard 'Hi Ren'...and there he was, this young man. A stranger to my eyes.
    I feared he'd found all my secret letters, and might read each one aloud!
    I prayed that he'd finish, but he kept singing clear and strong! [OK, lyrics by memory]
    I felt something 'burst' deep inside, and I haven't been able to see my old self since.
    I thought I was alone in my pain, I thought I was the only one who felt alone.
