      Ren, I have so much hope for you, I prey for you. You are a special person here to touch a LOT of people. Your strength is amazing. I have never met you, but I smile seeing your videos. Your so extremely talented and deserve to live your life in full. I am truly sorry to hear about your dark health past. I hope you are around for the long haul. I cannot get enough of your music. You've made top person I'd love to meet. Keep shining man. You are changing lives and bringing more positivity then you could ever imagine. Keep it up Boi

    I'm 64 now but I love this guy's philosophy on both life and music. He comes across as a lovely guy and so well grounded.
    Music really is a healer and brings people together. Everyone should express themselves through some form of art because I think it slows your world down a little and is so rewarding mentally.
    This interview was 3 years ago and 'Fame' is calling now big time, especially with the release of Ren's second album.
    I hope it doesn't change him and I hope he keeps his feet well grounded. Keep the mates you have now really close to you, because they'll be honest with you. And remember it's the simple things in life that make you happy, not big houses or flash cars.
    As I'm sure you know only to well Ren happiness is a state of mind, not wealth.

    Love this insight into where Ren was at the time, knowing what great things he had ahead.
    I imagine this must have been filmed just before his career and opportunities got put back on hold due to the pandemic/lock down since Apr 2020 when it says this video was put out was mid lock down.
    I’ve become a huge fan this year - but as I’ve watched everything he’s put out, I’ve kept finding the odd bit that is familiar - things I had seen before, enjoyed, but never quite stuck. I remember people sharing his busking videos and being blown away by them, but just thought “ah, lucky Brighton having such a talented busker there”. I remember being shown ‘The Hunger’ as an example of impressive rap, but I wasn’t ready at the time / I kick myself now remembering that I was dismissive…I didn’t get rap, I couldn’t follow what he was saying and what I did hear didn’t seem to mean anything, so I foolishly judged him for ‘looking too old to be dressed like a kid’…I’d completely forgotten thinking that until I’d watched the video maybe 20 or 30 times these past few months, loving it, and then suddenly had this guilty memory….what had I been thinking!
    Ren man, so glad your time has arrived - not this faux dawn of 2020, but now the glorious, shining star for the world to feel healed and grow from.
    Comparing this interview with the one I just watched with Knox Hill - you sir, are a credit not only to yourself, your parents, your friends, your country - but to humanity.

Where has he been hiding??" And now we know. :)
