They dropped it under the table, but: In "Satisfied" Renée pulls off the second fastest rap (as in, words per second) in theater history, beaten by "Guns and Ships" (also from Hamilton) by just about 0.3 Words.
Carlos Alejandro Alvarenga You could look it up, there are list with the official "words per second/minute" of different musicals, and those two raps from Hamilton are at the very top. Lin has said that he has quite the respect for the two actors, since he wrote the rap-verses but couldn't hope to pull them off (reliably). Renée's is said to be harder, since it leaves less breaks to breathe.
That is true, although Satisfied is a lot easier to rap than Guns and Ships, because of rather short words and less changes in rhythm. But I think these two parts from Satisfied are very challenging: "and the gossip in New York City is insideous" and "he's after me cause I'm a Schuyler Sister, that elevates his status..."
Laura H. No no no, it is easier to rap Guns and Ships because it flows more easily. In satisfied "What the heck is the catch" and "It's Ben Franklin with the key and the kite" and "The conversation lasted" and did you see his answer" "He's flying by the seat if his pants". all their are harder because the syllables don't flow as well as the Ines in Guns and Ships. It kinda knotss up your tongue, not like a tounge twister, but it just makes it go stiff
Laura Heywood is hands down one of the *best* interviewers I've ever watched. She always always does her research, so it's not just the same bloody questions we've heard a hundred times before. She makes her interviews feel like natural conversations, not just this list of questions she has to ask. I'm very glad she was the one who did the build series with the Hamilton cast!
She really is! Ol' girl has INFORMATION when she sits down with her subject, surprises THEM when she brings it out, and then just chats -- and she lets THEM talk, while she listens. Loved her interview with Alex Lacamoire.
How lucky we are to be alive right now! What a privilege it is to witness this phenomenally warm-hearted, talented, enthusiastic and humble woman create such a memorable character. Thank you for this series of interviews. The host is very empathetic and articulate.
To the one dislike: "I am slow to anger, but I must reply, as I reckon with the effects of your displaced like. I've looked for Renee's fail, and so far as I have checked, there's nothing in this video worth such disrespect"
I absolutely love this interviewer, she really is like no other! I felt like I learned so much about Renee in this interview & I'm so grateful, she truly is amazing ❤️
This lady is AMAZING! WHY did it take SOOO long for the (wide) world to know her!? I recall her from ST universe & "The Good Wife" (saw 2 seasons so far), BUT she really WOWS on "Hamilton" cast recording!!!
1, there is literally one dislike. To that person: Weehawken, Dawn. Guns. Drawn. And 2, HOW IN THE WORLD IS SHE FLIPPING 47. SHE LOOKS SO YOUNG AAAAH I'M FANGIRLING OVER MY CHILD RENEE
I absolutely ADORE these interviews! Wish something similar in this way happened in the UK, all the marketing and interviews like this are done so differently (and so much better) in the Broadway world and it makes me sad for the West End. Thanks for being an awesome interviewer Laura!
THANKYOU! As a person in the "acting industry" and eventually someone needs to say that just because you don't get in a performance doesn't mean you are a bad actor! Renee!! PREACH!
as an old Oltl fan I have to say I did feel that way. I knew she was something special when I saw her sing all us fair in love to John on Oltl. and her scenes with Nora were so much fun.
You should also check out the song One Last Ride. Its an early version of One Last Time (with very different vibes) and it deals a bit with the Whiskey Rebellion. Being a history nerd myself, I would love to hear your thoughts about it. I love your videos! I came for the Hamilton stuff and stayed for everything else. Thanks so much for the videos.
Renee is so humble! In the beginning, she was like you guys aren’t seat fillers? You’re actually here to see me? Ughhh why can’t other people be so humble!!
10:22 - 10:45 This is so inspirational. I just love her so muuchhh (and basically everyone from the cast as well) They're all such adorable cinnamon buns that's too good for this world
Renee needs to understand that Alexander Hamilton was simply another American Napoleonic figure, that had his enemies. But his legacy, and influence are still true, to this day.

Max S. really???? wow, no wonder I can't rap it well😂😂

Max S. Wows really I didn't know I could rap so fast

Everybody loves Satisfied. I listen to it religiously every single day.

Glad you like me as an interviewer -- I work really hard to be prepared & go deep! :-)

Awsamazing Eden 10/10 would sing again
😤👍 I 100% agree
👏👏👏👏👏
I am in love with Renee Elise Goldsberry.
I absolutely love this interviewer, she really is like no other! I felt like I learned so much about Renee in this interview & I'm so grateful, she truly is amazing ❤️
Raquel She also interviewed Phillipa Soo and she definitely knew her stuff. She knows her stuff her too. Such a great interviewer.💗
Maybe I should say she knew her stuff in this interview too
Don't audition for another show. Just renew your Hamilton contract for life please.
Haha! I'm picturing a 75 year old Renée trying to perform Satisfied 30 years later 😂😂 (I'm sure she could tbh ✊👊)
QUEEN
They won 11 tonys 😍😍😍😍😀😀😀😀 p.s love your channel
omg jona i love you!!!
JonasAlmostFamous I OOVE YOUR CHANNEL
*QUEENS

OLTL...
She's not in Steven Universe...?
1, there is literally one dislike. To that person: Weehawken, Dawn. Guns. Drawn.
And 2, HOW IN THE WORLD IS SHE FLIPPING 47. SHE LOOKS SO YOUNG AAAAH I'M FANGIRLING OVER MY CHILD RENEE
There's three now. You and me, Tag team?
I absolutely ADORE these interviews! Wish something similar in this way happened in the UK, all the marketing and interviews like this are done so differently (and so much better) in the Broadway world and it makes me sad for the West End. Thanks for being an awesome interviewer Laura!
Thank YOU for your support! 💖💖💖 I'm starting to build up my own youtube channel too... if you are interested in more content from me! ☺️
THANKYOU! As a person in the "acting industry" and eventually someone needs to say that just because you don't get in a performance doesn't mean you are a bad actor! Renee!! PREACH!
she is so well spoken omg i am in love with her
😒😒🤨🤔🙄
When she was in Rent as Mimi my life was complete but then The Color Purple came and then Hamilton. I can die happy
She will always be Evangeline to me, however I am so happy for her success! She's awesome.
I love that she is not cocky and arrogant! God bless her!
as an old Oltl fan I have to say I did feel that way. I knew she was something special when I saw her sing all us fair in love to John on Oltl. and her scenes with Nora were so much fun.
I remember growing up and her being on a soap opera my mom used to watch. But I never realize how musically talented she was.
I love her confidence.
I could listen to her talk all day.
I first fell in love with her on One Life to Live and I’ve followed her ever since.
i need a video of renee's reaction if she goes to see karen olivo's angelica in chicago
Yes, Shakespeare in the Park! I try to go every year.
I love this woman's spirit!
Please stay "as long as they'll have (you) and as long as (you) can pull it off"! Hope to see you when I go this December!!!
I hope the original cast come to the uk
we love you Renee
what a great interview!
Such a gracious lady.
i got so excited to watch this
She is so beautiful and amazing!!
I loved her when she was on One Life to Live. Tika Sumpter played her sister on OLTL!
She steals the show
Good God, is she a magical unicorn!!! Looooooove her!!!!
She's so inspirational and real. I love her.
i love her so much, she is amazing and really inspiring
She is so inspirational!! Queen!
Who would have been the forgotten sister if Hamilton married Peggy?
probably Eliza
Yeah I think so too.
Eliza.
Yeah, Eliza, or Cornnelia and the other sister( self evident)
Peggy died she was not forgotten. The Hamilton’s and Angelica were by her side when she died
Welcome to the Motor City Renee and others SORRY FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO 👀 THE SHOW
I truly really love her confidence!
how is she 46
Tia Reynolds i actually thought she was in her early 30s, she looks and sounds so young! i had to look it up
she just is.
No way...

DONT LEAVE
This woman is so lovely.
"until after I leave the show" now she's gone...
LOVE her!!!
i loveee renée
@BroadwayGirlNYC I have loved all your Hamilton cast & creative team interviews. Your fan girling makes me s-m-i-l-e real big!
Love you Renee! Have your poster in my living room. Would love to meet you one day! Congratulations on your accomplishments! 👏👏👏
First of all, she and Condola favor, but Renee definitely gives Phylicia Rashad vibes.
"Opera-tunity"
YAY
I feel like Renée and Audra would be great in a Broadway show together I ❤ them both
I love her
Renee is soo sweet
I know her in The Good Wife as Geneva Pine
She was in Lion King? I love that musical😱
She was 45 when she did this interview! 45! Forty freaking five! I thought she was like 25 this whole time!!!
Renee is so humble! In the beginning, she was like you guys aren’t seat fillers? You’re actually here to see me? Ughhh why can’t other people be so humble!!
God bless you ALL in the name of Jesus!!!!
10:22 - 10:45 This is so inspirational. I just love her so muuchhh (and basically everyone from the cast as well) They're all such adorable cinnamon buns that's too good for this world
What a blessing to hear her glorify God!
do you know what I mean
WORK!
The 1 dislike is from Burr.
I'm totally striving to take her job soon lol not even jk
1) I love the webtoon I Love Yoo
2) Wish you the best of luck😊
Join her. And wish you the best!! Stay safe. xo
How does the lead in clip feature not focus on Angelica? She has multiple solos in Hamilton and this clip picked focused on Eliza. Boo!
ohhhh... I always thought George Washington said "I'm gonna die in need of assistance" in right hand man
I can just see REG as Velma Kelly.
❤️ ~✿~❧~✿~❧~✿~ ❤️

The two dislikes: Peggy and Burr.
Renee needs to understand that Alexander Hamilton was simply another American Napoleonic figure, that had his enemies. But his legacy, and influence are still true, to this day.
Sometimes she looks a little bit like an adult version of my friend lol!!
i love her, but she talks too much. this is why I love Lin's interviews. he is so eloquent
Renee Elise Goldsberry; What a pro to handle with such grace and wit such an rude interviewer
