    Another masterpiece composition from Ren! :)
    It sounds as if you haven't heard much of Ren's singing voice, so here are a few suggestions that highlight it:
    "Chalk Outlines" also featuring Chinchilla. Make sure it's the live version!
    "Man's World" - one of 3 songs sung while busking with Sam Tompkins.
    "An Englishman in New York" with his band, The Big Push.
    "Wade in the Water" also with The Big Push.
    "Murderer" - live acoustic version.
    Take your pick and enjoy! :)

    Obviously the content of the lyrics is emotional, and that is one thing. But this performance is gorgeous even without words. If this was in a language I didn't speak I feel like I would have the same reaction. It's such moving sounds.

    His library is pretty diverse. If you want to see more singing than rap there's plenty to choose from. (I think you'd really enjoy his work with The Big Push)

    Ren is the Original "Bardcore Genre Bender" The Master Bard himself ( Shakespeare ) would have understood exactly where Ren was coming from. Ren isn't just a songwriter but rather a Performance Art Master who blends music and character acting from all the styles over the last 500 years and makes it modern and relatable to all generations even if normally you may not be a fan of whatever genre he is currently performing. While most good Performers can envoke some emotions in their audience, Ren is an Emotion Master who has control of all of them, From the Feel Good Vibes of Bongo Bong, to the Rebellion of Illist Of Our Time, to the Tragedy of Jenny and Screech, to the Mind Bending Rap Flow of Losing It, and the Internal Psych War of Hi Ren, Ren has it All! The Ren Rabbit Hole is Deep and Powerful! Get Ready for the Ride of your Life!

    Beth, in case you weren't aware: This song is about Ren dealing with his best friend ending his life by jumping from a bridge. They were both young at the time (early 20's) and Ren really struggled with what his life was without Joe. Ren also dealt with a lot of guilt as he got to the bridge about 5 minutes too late to save him and feels partly responsible.

    • @Phazetic99

    A couple more heavily melodic tunes from Ren that have come out since you last reacted to him;
    Fred Again Mashup, a collection of 5 (?) formerly edm tracks merged into one acoustic performance, with beautiful, raw vocals, with simple but effective instrumentals and astatic.
    Back On 74/ Message In A Bottle Retake, Funk era harmonics with two excellent back up singers, a silent bassist, and Ren on electric. Falsetto for days. Frankly, it just sounds fun. Short rap splitting the two songs before Ren amazes you with his best impersonation of The Police.
    For Chinchilla, Fingers (live for Hunger TV), Astonishing performance, don't even bother trying to close your Jaw. Also check out her song 1:5, i'm pretty sure it's a live one take, but not 100% on that, in either case, it's a great performance, and a novel song.
    Ren is also dropping a new song late next week, from his upcoming album. I think i remember him previously stating that the next album would be more uplifting, and melodic, so maybe check that out as well.
    Edit: I meant to mention some of his busking sections, live street performances that will wow you. one with Sam Thomkins - Earned it/ Mans World/ Fallin, best of the three, and that's saying something, so, so good.
    Ren's Band, The Big Push - Wade in the Water/ Nina Simone/ Troubles so hard, insane soulful runs.
    and again with TBP - Shot the Sherriff/ Road to Zion/ Hip Hop, least impressive vocals out of all of these, but still a super fun performance of reggae, ska, and hip hop. This is one of those that you just wish you could have been there to see it live.
