    This isn’t just music. It’s art. My demons have been with me since birth & they grew, as I did, getting stronger when fueled by the cruelties of the world. My loved ones don’t seem to understand this concept, but I no longer fight my demons. I softened, as Ren put it, and now we walk, fight, and survive together. I will always strive to do good things for myself and to be selfish in the way I must be in order to protect my mental health. But we should not feed them with our own hatred of ourselves. We are human. We all have demons, and to battle for happiness is what living is about. ❤

    REN wrote this song (in my heart and soul) for my late son Alex. He fell into a depression after the isolation of COVID. He struggled with alcohol addiction his entire teenage to adult life. He “celebrated” 5 years sober in the ICU trying to recover from pneumonia and eventually the failure of multiple organs. I so wish for many things for Alex…he would have appreciated this song! He struggled with bipolar disorder and this song reminds me of his battles. Take care, REN 💔

    A modern day Shakespeare a wordsmith of extraordinary talent. He is without doubt a bloody genius. But through him so many other artists are now been listened to artists we knew nothing about. This is what the industry needs it doesn't need industry plants. He connected all over the world with this song. He managed to obtain a number one album on the UK charts without a record label insight. His fans are loyal. He has given every single reactor a nod to their work because without these reactors how many of you would have missed him. He's not just given us one song his entire discography is here. Others trying to imitate him or disrespect him are many but there will only EVER be one REN.
