    Ren is an actual artist. he isnt just a rapper or just a guitar player or just a singer, or just an actor. he is all of those and more.

      Yes, Ren makes music, by he is beyond that. He is also a performer, poet, director, and producer. You can see the drummer looking to him to make sure he connected to Ren regarding the morphing beat. At one point Ren slows down the beat for ‘Hip Hop’.

    Ren has mentioned in interviews that as he was developing his singing voice he realized his tone matched Sting's pretty well and he is hugely influenced by both Sting and the Police. He has also said that the busking session audio from each instrument went into iPhones. He worked meticulously to get the audio capture to what we have here. He said it was a labor of love and is happy that these performances are preserved for others to discover. Thanks for reacting to the Reniverse!

    What's nuts is immediately after this performance he did War Pigs. (Which is a must listen to)

      And then after War Pigs, they did Paint It Black, another epic cover. And in the same show they did their superb original song Watch Out. What I would have given to be there! Better than most 'tier one' concerts I've been to that have cost upwards of £100.

    Reggae is a big part of British culture so it's not to strange seeing someone like Ren sing in that style, some of the best reggae singers of all time was signed to UK labels back in the day. One of the most iconic British reggae songs is Pass the Dutchy by the Musical Youth from Birmingham.

    My brain is blown away by all Ren is doing. Video Grapher. Raps, sings with range. Writes music. He .makes his own videos. Produces. He is wise beyond his years.
    He brings struggling artist up to the public .he answers and does interviews with reactors. He is well aware with what made him famos. Yesterday he started a go fund me type of thing for a young smart reactor. He remembers where he is from. His reactor interviews are so open and awesome.
    I can't believe that he is able to do this while being sick 10 yrs. Mis diagnoses killing his ammune system. Now finally 10 yrs he is being treated for Lyme Disease. I have tried to find flaws in his music and videos. But I can't. He is so very honest and humble. No way to box him to any genre. Look my kids think I too old to be a fan but there's no words. Deep lyrics trying to help us as humans. ❤❤❤❤
    HE MUST GET WELL!
    WE NEED HIM IN THIS WORLD FOREVER.

    I remember years ago, Philip Philips on American Idol would move his whole body when singing/playing guitar and I think it was JLo that said it was like the music was like electricity flowing through his body. And watching Ren (especially when playing the guitar at the beginning) you can see his whole body feeling every single note. And it reminds me of that comment. I never forgot it because Philip felt like the music to me rather than the cookie cutter pop stars they usually had on the show.
