The first time I found Ren - Hi Ren it gave me chills. 2am probably wasn't the right time to go down that rabbit hole but I'm also so glad I did, I've really enjoyed watching his rise over the last few months. I hope this current treatment also does wonders for him.

This song was the first one I heard of him and it gave me chills too. Also 2 or 3 am and going down that rabbit hole since then. 7 am now. I hope that too!
Oh wow you've just fell down that one? Enjoy it all!! I can't wait for the album Sick Boi
Pretty creepy but pretty cool at the same time haha
Yeah its pretty crazy... I cannot really put into words what that song makes me feel. As a guy that has to fight mental illness for quite a long time it really hits quite hard because he gets a lot of points. Its not that I hear voices like him. For me its just my own thoughts that tell me ever so often that I suck and am worth nothing. Its crazy how that guy gets that all into that song. The whole fight that he does. And in such a freaking cool way. The other songs that he made also remind me more of an story or bard style than typical rap that I see in mainstream today. Can recommend it fully
Well this is wonderful. What a talent! I'm thinking it is as if Eminem was the lead in Hamilton.
Damn. Humbling to watch another's talent
That was my second introduction to REN, the first was the quite different Patience https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJNNe6aUQak
Edit: I brought "The Tale of Jenny and Screach" on CD to support him and his treatment. I was the first CD I have purchaced in maybe 15 years
Nice one!
My favourites are still Money Game and Money Game part 2
