wtf is going on with mc ren?

[Sir Petey]

i dont know man ren sounded pretty good on snoops last meal...when your voice is that commanding a little direction and inspiration with a guy like that could go along way.

[jeromechickenbone]

Ren was fierce on Last Meal, Hello, that shit from that era...

Dude can def still spit, would like to hear a legit release.

[Raphael]

[EnzoUK]

i think somewhere along the line it stopped being fun. i hope eazy cut him back in on the royalties jerry heller fucked him over with...from what i understood ren and eazy stayed tight.

He has unreleased songs from the scrapped Life Sentence album, but Ruthless is dead.

[Triple OG Rapsodie]

btw how were his rhymes on his last album? I didn't even check it out, because the quality was horrible.

[Sir Petey]

the writing was on par with anything else but his delivery left alot to be desired imo

shit sounded real uninspired.

the vocals sound messed up, bad equipment i guess

[Cordozzar Drakko]

i would just be happy to hear him on anything with some direction and some decent production/mixing behind him.

I think that's the whole difference between Dre & Cube when they went solo & Ren. Not the lyrics or flow delivery, but the instrumentals! They just don't compare! Just like the entire Death Row sound vs Ruthless sound at the same time... Can you imagine the vocals of Ren's solo songs over any DR-produced beat? For a whole album? It'd have gone multi-platinum! No fucken doubt!

I also agree Ren must have counted on the NWA reunion (the featurings, the Up in Smoke Tour, & unfortunately the album that never happened), hell, the dvd as great as it was, was missing even as short as a 15mn (I even say 30mn) NWA 2001 live section!

After that, I think I recall Ren said he only wanted to stay independant, that he wanted nothing to do with a major. He did a cd-single independant, he did his "movie" independant, & his online album independant... Thing is he don't master the independant game like, say, Daz does. Or even how the DOC did his album. THAT would have been a good move for him! Working with another OG like him with whom he has great history!

The most recent featuring I can think of is with Tha Chill "Have dat Money Rite", good track, good video.
Hell The Game outta have mad features with Ren shouting NWA as he does...

Another album would be a bad idea. He doesn't have any direction, and his whole style of pure hardcore raps is pretty played out imo. He hasn't been able to evolve his style like Cube or Dre. If anything I'd prefer to hear him on features with them, but that shit ain't gonna happen so might as well forget about it.

If making horrible faux southern music like cube is evolving no wonder hip hop is considered dead. And how has dre evolved he's still rapping about the same exact shit
