Rapper Ren habe ich jetzt ein paar Mal im Netz gesehen (und auch einmal hier im Blog gefeatured), was originelle Neuinterpretationen bekannter Songs anbelangt, auf die der britische Musiker neue Texte rappt. Mit „Hi Ren“ liefert er jetzt aber einen persönlichen Song – nicht nur, weil dieser komplett selbstgeschrieben ist, sondern vor allem, weil er seine eigene psychische Vergangenheit aufarbeitet. Ist jetzt nichts, das man auf Dauerschleife nebenbei hört, aber die Emotionen kommen allemal rüber und kreative Elemente sind da auch zuhauf drin zu finden. Starkes Stück!
„Creating this song wasn’t easy, but I’m so proud of how it turned out. Want to say a big thank you for everoyones support over the years. During the years trapped inside with chronic health problems the main thing that kept me going was a belief that one day I would come out the other side, and be able to achieve success through music. I don’t have a label, and sometimes pushing these things as hard as I want becomes a massive challenge, and I find myself frustrated that there aren’t enough hours in the day to push it as far as I want to. I would love to ask a favour to anyone who has ever enjoyed my music over the years, and it will only take a few minutes of your day.It would mean the world to me if you shared ‘Hi Ren’ as much as you can, over social media platforms, with friends, over email. Together, and with your help I can hopefully reach people all over the world, and get one step closer to the dream I always had! Thank you so much for the support so far!“
