Beautiful. Love the original version by The Verve too. Cool (Scottish or English?) rap even though I am not a rap fan.

realsinatrafan.bsky.social•41 days ago

Didn't realize this was a NEW version.

I checked out this version by The Verve. Also very good. Thanks for the info! 👍

martinacz.bsky.social•41 days ago

The original is MUCH better.

Love the original. New Ren drop is good too.

A NEW NEW version then because the origins lie here:

Ren's Welsh, but has made his home in Brighton when he's not traveling for medical treatment.

themisfitheathen.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ren is amazing!!

skaryfair.bsky.social•41 days ago

As I was listening to it, I was reflecting on how much power you have. For better or worse, I instantly listened to it as it came across my feed. I am wondering if you might consider or promote a trusted account that might put out one recommended action a day to fight back?

marstar47.bsky.social•41 days ago

Love Ren. SO talented!

belpearce.bsky.social•40 days ago

Welcome to the Renegades, he is a genius.

zorbathegirl.bsky.social•40 days ago

I love him so much it hurts, like crying hurts.

mediumman.bsky.social•27 days ago

I highly recommend his track “Hi Ren” from a couple of years ago.

bretthenry.bsky.social•41 days ago

He is remarkable. He was bed bound for several years with Lyme disease.

crone70.bsky.social•41 days ago

Discovered him yesterday! Shared with my granddaughter! Fabulous!

dwards.bsky.social•41 days ago

My son is a huge Ren fan &has shared the music with me. I was concerned that his suicidal thoughts might be exacerbated by the lyrics but he said "it's the opposite Mum, if Ren can survive all he has then so can I". Ren's story and his story telling are remarkable

ksvo2002.bsky.social•41 days ago

Mine as well! That’s how I was exposed to him!

squaresquirrel.bsky.social•41 days ago

True he reaches out and to help people who are struggling. He is a good soul, a great human who has suffered much and been denied full recognition for his talent due to being a really 'sick boi'.

winterlady1.bsky.social•41 days ago

WOW - that's a huge testament to Ren AND your son!!
I hope you and he continue to do well! 🤗✨

dwards.bsky.social•41 days ago

@renmakesmusic.bsky.social Thank you. I'm hopeful we're now through the worst but I guess it will always be lurking waiting to pounce if we turn our backs on it - it seems it's the nature of the beast.

cameinuninvited.bsky.social•41 days ago

❤

gee-emm.bsky.social•41 days ago

It's a shame that the original song is as relevant today as it was in 1997. Richard Ashcroft spelled out life's struggles then and Ren adds a modern touch to it. Good stuff.

elliezell.bsky.social•41 days ago

My favorite song. Always reminds me of London.

travelnwander.bsky.social•41 days ago

YES!! I just discovered him too! Incredible artist

I am trying to convince anyone with a bigger platform on the left to talk to me in order to have a very important discussion about what the right wing,potentially foreign actors are doing on YT.Sadly my success rate is 0,which sucks cause I have a bad feeling after 20th Jan we will not get much help

karinawithani.bsky.social•41 days ago

That was great!! Thanks for sharing!!

I love the original song, 🎵 one of my faves to ski to

rayinrichmond.bsky.social•41 days ago

He's definitely extremely talented. He came across my YouTube feed about a year and a half ago and I've been a fan ever since.

Welcome to Bardcore Mr. Cuban. I hope you explore the rabbit hole that is all things Ren. He is quite literally a tortured genius. "Renegades" unite.

mfvandaele.bsky.social•41 days ago

Love Ren! He will always surprise you, but never disappoint! He was also part of the band Trick the Fox! Check out their busking videos on YouTube!

n8williams.bsky.social•41 days ago

They’re no MC Ren…

perfectkismet.bsky.social•40 days ago

Obviously not, but he *is* a talented artist who sings, raps and plays multiple instruments as well as produces, mixes, masters, directs and edits his own songs and videos.

This is just one version of him rapping, as well. The guy can rap rap.

flashheart.bsky.social•41 days ago

Hadn't heard of him before...... Mind blown, excellent work

winterlady1.bsky.social•41 days ago

His whole catalog is up on Youtube, and all the streaming platforms - but I recommend YouTube because you get video work with the music.
He's just the artist of a generation. And a truly good human to boot.

rickerbucks.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ren is a ridiculous talent. Off the charts. And SO much production from him. Can spend hours watching his YT .

Ren is so talented, I’ve been listening to him for about a year now. His talent reaches across so many different genres he’s got something for everyone!

lisamc79.bsky.social•40 days ago

@mcuban.bsky.social have you seen @renmakesmusic.bsky.social’s Money Game series + Money Ties?! Seriously compelling pieces!!

lisamc79.bsky.social•41 days ago

Yes! 1000%. @renmakesmusic.bsky.social is incredible! Truly a once in a generation talent and a prophetic voice we desperately need in this cultural moment.

nancylshaw.bsky.social•41 days ago

Not typically a fan of rap music, but this is really beautiful when you listen closely. Recording outside and not in studio reminds me of the movie Begin Again.

You need to listen to Money game songs, part 1, 2 and 3. It's extremely relevant to what's happening in the world

jennjvn.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yes! And the Money Game 3 video has won awards, it's really a masterpiece. I can see why Andrew Lloyd Webber is a huge Ren fan.

cameinuninvited.bsky.social•41 days ago

I was about to say the same!

olddragonlady.bsky.social•40 days ago

He speaks across the generations, I'm in my 70's and am a fan! The creativity, beauty and fragility of his soul is evident throughout his varied works.

Ren is such a talented artist - love him and all of his work

lisa-mm.bsky.social•41 days ago

I love REN! He’s very talented.

edciting.bsky.social•41 days ago

This artist is endowed with exceptional self-awareness of what is taking place inside his head (probably much more than most of us) along with the capacity to express it though his performance.

edciting.bsky.social•41 days ago

Certainly he has persevered through difficult times including significant mental health concerns. Isn't it interesting that folks who have struggled end up producing some of our most admired artistic output?

edciting.bsky.social•41 days ago

(for example: Michelangelo, Vincent van Gogh, Jackson Pollock, Sylvia Plath, Virginia Woolf, Francisco Goya, Mark Rothko, Edgar Degas, Georgia O’Keeffe, Paul Gauguin, etc., etc.)

I wish him well on his future path.

debthecpn.bsky.social•41 days ago

A mashup of the two songs and it's straight fire! 🔥

marifrancille.bsky.social•41 days ago

whozitwhatzit.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ren can't be pigeon-holed. He sings (multiple genres), raps, writes, plays multiple instruments, directs, etc. (Also he and his busking band, The Big Push are amazing.)

ladydjarin.bsky.social•41 days ago

I hate rap music, but I love Ren's rap songs. Ren does rock, ska, reggae, he can put his hand to virtually anything. He also produces most of his own tracks. An amazing artist.

I'm so happy to see Ren getting noticed - he's a unique talent! Please also give his good friend Chinchilla a listen! They have done a couple songs together, too! ☺️

birdladyasw.bsky.social•38 days ago

I've been so late to the fun that I first heard Chinchilla's 'little girl gone' on criminal minds and found Ren via her. But damn do I love this rabbit/chinchilla hole. Chinchilla is amazing, as is Ren. Her music's hounting me. Love their versatility and passion and skill! https://youtu.be/wvh-iW803bY?feature=shared

ajnyx.bsky.social•38 days ago

Little Girl Gone was also my gateway Chinchilla song, and then I had to consume her whole catalog! She has done some incredible things! The theme song for Sweet Pea is her, and she covered my favorite Fleetwood Mac song, The Chain! She seemingly cannot miss with me! 😊

birdladyasw.bsky.social•38 days ago

damn, she did? Love Fleetwood Mac so much, though I'm the Big Love, Landslide, Rhiannon kinda girl. The Chain is wonderful though!^^ The Dance is simly phenomenal!

ajnyx.bsky.social•38 days ago

Will the Rolling Stones sue this guy too??

winterlady1.bsky.social•41 days ago

No, probably not - because it's not a cover of their song. It's a retake with original lyrics on the melody.

...to be fair, at least they haven't sued him yet. LOL

perfectkismet.bsky.social•39 days ago

The real answer is no, because he does his retakes as pure homage and to bring attention to artists who inspire him. So he doesn't monetize them in any way and only posts them in full to YouTube where there is an agreement giving immunity for covers.

anitamanicure.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ren is ridiculously off the hook!

caseyliddle.bsky.social•40 days ago

Ren is incredibly underrated to a point it’s frustrating!

Hi there Ren.

weaselicious.bsky.social•40 days ago

Ren is a game changer. #hiren

blueandbleu.bsky.social•41 days ago

Always loved that song. I like his version.

argo-ardito.bsky.social•41 days ago

Well done! Thank you for this bit of joy.

mermaid223.bsky.social•41 days ago

He's pretty amazing

rah66.bsky.social•40 days ago

He is amazing! So talented. He is a wordsmith!

rickosborne.bsky.social•41 days ago

@mcuban.bsky.social If you like that song, please check out one of Ren’s earlier pieces. It's so good it brings me to tears.

This is great. Thanks!

citizenalpha.bsky.social•40 days ago

I don’t throw the word “genius”around. But let me place it, gently, here.
Thanks for sharing.

MONEY GAME pt 1,2 and 3. Must see

ciddy7th.bsky.social•38 days ago

Welcome to the rabbit hole. The Jenny & Screech trilogy need a careful approach. Wonderful but heartbreaking.

zzulran.bsky.social•41 days ago

This is the one that had me listening to him.

rustonka.bsky.social•40 days ago

You are so right.

callistamoonrise.bsky.social•40 days ago

That's incredible. What a genius.

rioter88.bsky.social•41 days ago

Got into him a few months ago. He’s so damn talented

eugene290390.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ren's a wonder of the modern world, his catalog filled with precious gems and his art and words filled with rare wisdom! @renmakesmusic.bsky.social

sjabradley.bsky.social•41 days ago

This never fails to blow me away. Every. Single. Time. He's a tortured soul and we're privileged to witness the beauty of his complexity

blondejustice.bsky.social•41 days ago

Wow.

jasonrocksout.bsky.social•41 days ago

This one is arguably the ultimate

nobuffalo.bsky.social•41 days ago

The first time I heard this I think my heart slowed down, don’t even know if I was breathing. Just absorbing

shakedown514.bsky.social•40 days ago

His early busker videos are spectacular. This work is seminal.

marcinva.bsky.social•41 days ago

This is the one that broke me

dragontat2.bsky.social•38 days ago

Holy hell! I'm 70 years old. I'm elated that you've helped me find his voice and words and music. Ren is speaking to *me*... and many many others, I am sure. Even if they haven't found his voice and words and music yet.
Thank you ~*~ Ima go listen again now.

~ Susie, in AmericaLand.

troublemker73.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yes, this is how I was introduced to him and this had me in tears. This guy is talented.

marajode.bsky.social•35 days ago

The level of excitement I felt when I saw mark had posted about him!

guybaddis.bsky.social•41 days ago

One of the best videos I've ever seen.

fabcynth.bsky.social•40 days ago

Damn, that was intense! Just followed on YouTube to check out the rest 👍🏻

cameinuninvited.bsky.social•40 days ago

You'll be busy for a while!! Welcome to the Ren Rabbit Hole!!!

marajode.bsky.social•35 days ago

You’re so lucky to just be at the door to the rabbit hole.
Stay hydrated.

chellelavixen.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ren is amazing. I've been following his music for a while.

aleria57.bsky.social•40 days ago

Thanks for this. Instant hope.

sailing-adrena.bsky.social•41 days ago

Thank you! Love this! 💙👍🏼

cleopete.bsky.social•40 days ago

My sister turned me on to him recently, he's fantastic.

kevinmac27.bsky.social•41 days ago

I want a lot more "records" which are recorded live without an audience. Often think that. Great stuff.

perfectkismet.bsky.social•40 days ago

Then definitely keep up with Ren. Pretty much everything he does that doesn't have a beat is a live recording. Even those with beats often have acoustic variants. He came up busking (street performing) and he painstakingly mixes the audio line by line, himself.

kevinmac27.bsky.social•40 days ago

Thanks.

dkamboh.bsky.social•41 days ago

So on point! Luv them 🙌

danakallen.bsky.social•41 days ago

Yep! He's real good. I wish he'd been around when I was driving my scatter Boi, ’s around in my astro van.

cheers464646.bsky.social•41 days ago

So he used the Verves song and that is the one you used?

cheers464646.bsky.social•38 days ago

Pretty wild. Did not know about Oldham. Thank you.

perfectkismet.bsky.social•40 days ago

He used the music, the lyrics are his own.

beverlybluewave.bsky.social•41 days ago

Love him!

beverlybluewave.bsky.social•41 days ago

In the new world, we have to explain being social because ironically social media took socializing out of real culture. But I understand.

sandyspeck.bsky.social•41 days ago

Agree I’m fascinated by his resilience and talent.

sandyspeck.bsky.social•41 days ago

Agree I’m fascinated by his resilience and talent.

js27419.bsky.social•41 days ago

Yes! Ren ist Great. Guess his busking times in Bristol are over now.

debthecpn.bsky.social•41 days ago

He said on a post a couple of days ago, he is definitely going to be busking again

js27419.bsky.social•41 days ago

That would be great! Hopefully with the guys from the big push! Thanks for the good news!

debthecpn.bsky.social•41 days ago

Certainly Romain, Gorren if he ever stops wandering around the world busking 😂

js27419.bsky.social•41 days ago

Sorry, its Brighton, not Bristol. 😉

js27419.bsky.social•41 days ago

Yes , I know! My fault 😉

terrirrt.bsky.social•41 days ago

I love this! New music and I’m not rerouted to you tube and bs. I love #bluesky❤️

druidiamac.bsky.social•41 days ago

Love his music, and he's one helluva guitarist. The lyrics can be a bit of a hard one to listen to, but poignant.

gurlcat.bsky.social•41 days ago

Thanks that is a good sound. NEAT CONCEPT

hobbsrobinson.bsky.social•41 days ago

I love Ren!

kincadium.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ren is fantastic. So much emotion behind everything he does. For Joe a favorite.

monicalandry.bsky.social•41 days ago

So you have WhatsApp to facilitate our conversation?

jerzigirl1012.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ren is amazing! So excited to see where his talent takes him!

joyce4awhile.bsky.social•41 days ago

Sinéad O'Connor (RIP) introduced me to him. Good taste.

geanieg.bsky.social•41 days ago

Ren is amazing. He's not actually that new, just new to a lot of people.

cmg-0426.bsky.social•41 days ago

Wow, he’s good, really talented.

scottdaniel.bsky.social•41 days ago

This kid is so good

debthecpn.bsky.social•41 days ago

He’s 34. 😁👍

scottdaniel.bsky.social•41 days ago

I am 56

debthecpn.bsky.social•41 days ago

😁😂😜

scottdaniel.bsky.social•41 days ago

He is a kid

jerseygreek.bsky.social•40 days ago

He’s my 5 kids age range 31-40. I’m 70. He is a kid. A good one😊

magandsons.bsky.social•41 days ago

The best part of social media is the ability to see new art and artists and to learn from experiences different from my own. I've grown as a human thanks to access.
