Isn't Ren fantastic? That's why he has such a diverse audience. I am 68 years old, and I just completely LOVE Ren"s music, all of it.

I totally agree with you! This song is my happy place. I cannot be sad when I hear this. The original, although brilliant at the time, can be a bit monotonous. But Ren and the gang have just arranged it so well that it just breathed in such life into it. I'm so happy you reacted to this gem 💎 Can't wait to your next Ren/Big Push reaction. Btw you could add solo Chinchilla to your list. Start with Fingers (Live for Hunger tv) for a demo to her incredible vocals. ❤

This is my take on why Ren hasn't blown up to the level he should be at. He's totally independent. (He does have a small team of talented friends). He wasn't able to do shows or typical promos for his 1st solo hip hop album Sick Boi although his album became #1 in the UK. For more than a year he's been in Canada getting treatment for the affects of his untreated Lyme disease all while traveling back and forth to England to record music videos. Hi Ren, his viral video has only been out a little more than a year ago. But things are changing a lot for him now. He's moving to LA, finishing up his 2nd album. Recorded these retakes and has a number of collabs already recorded. 2024 should be a good year for him.

Actually Manu Chao´s "Bongo Bong" released 1998 was already a cover version of the song titeled "King of the Bongo" released in 1991 by the French Alternative Rock + Ska punk band "Manu Negra" and Manu Chao was the singer of that band which was founded by him and his brother in the 80ties way before he started his solo career at 1998. "King of the Bongo" had musically a total different vibe (=had a bit more agressive singing performance with dominant drums as background and had no reggae vibe at all but was more like a punk music vibe) than "Bongo Bong" and also didn´t have the then from Manu Chao added "Je aime taime plus" part sung by his girl friend who by the way also participated from time to time at "Manu Negra" songs already. But my favourite song from that particular Manu Negra album was the song "Out of time man" which got then covered over a decade later by Mick Harvey for one episode of the TV show "Breaking Bad".

No monkey can take Ren's place!! 🐵🐒 Not even King Kong! 🦍 I introduced this cover and a few other Big Push songs to a 78-year-old disabled woman I help take care of, and she has asked me to play Bongo Bong a few times, calling it "the monkey song." I thought she'd like TBP because they do a few 1950's and '60's covers (Johnny B. Goode, Be Bop a Lula, These Boots Are Made For Walking). And they also wrote a doo-wop song (Oh My Woman?) that's pretty amazing and interesting, because it turns a little "psychedelic" towards the end. Loved your reaction!

Love this! Ren used to busk with TBP at the top of my street in Brighton, fans would block Ship Street/Duke Street on a Saturday afternoon to see this talent. Good days…Rumour had it he was signed by Sony, but got dumped when he became ill with Lymes disease, bet they’re kicking themselves now if that’s accurate…
@serendipitish
@serendipitish 4 ай бұрын
Ren was signed with Sanctuary, a subsidiary of Sony, in the Trick The Fox days, at the very beginning of his illness. They had started to record tracks for an album, but he became too sick to continue, and they mutually agreed that he wouldn't be able to fulfill the "produce and promote 1 album in [time frame]" contract. They not only let the contract expire gracefully, they let him keep the masters that had already been recorded. Those formed the basis of about half the tracks on his "Freckled Angels" album, released independently 4-5 years later. It certainly wasn't the way anyone wanted it to go, but Sony weren't dicks about it. (Regrets? I'm sure they have a few!)

We're all putting out the "reunion" vibes... if wishing can make it so, it's a done deal. Actually, Gorran has begun posting music again and Romaine has a fair bit of new music so except for the drummer Glenn they are all still playing and they all say they're still friends and would love to play together again... even if only for 1 event. I feel for Glenn though, he's often overlooked and apparently is also a really good guitar player, he ended up on drums because he was the best drummer. (I've seen a video with Ren playing drums... he can hold the tempo but it's obviously not his best instrument.)

Yes, he started studying for a degree in Music Performance at Bath Spa, but got only about a year into his studies before his illness (and possibly Sony's interest) led him to drop out. I'm sure he learned a lot while he was there, but he'd already been playing self-taught guitar since he was 10, and learned a huge variety of musical styles before he arrived. ❤❤

My vote for the next song is The Big Push These Boots are Made for Walking & Praise You on Praise You their harmonies are killer Do not get me wrong love the original song, but you are right this version is lots better Ren said on his last song release premier chat The Big Push boys are talking but it was the timing they are working on even if they do not get back together full-time an occasional new song or gig or busking gig would be heaven they are way too good not to do something ... ... You need to check out Gorran Kendall and Romain Axisa solo stuff their solo stuff is wonderful too Romain is a genius on the guitar and his voice is hauntly angelic . And Gorran's solo stuff reminds of the music of the 70s like Bob Dylan , Cat Sevens etc ... love Gorran's live busking sessions he does lately
