Up-and-coming hip-hop artist, ren.y.c is ready to take 2024 by force. Her newsingle, “Wicky” set for release on January 12, 2024, tackles social issues with arhythmic punch.Ren.y.c’s personal style of gritty trap and drill beats—laced with catchymelodies—tells real stories. Her emotional approach is authentic and thoughtprovoking. The artist finds inspiration during everyday events, from riding in thecar to working out. Her devotion to God is also reflected in her music andheartfelt stories.Ren.y.c isn’t afraid to tell you the truth—and make it sound good as she does it.“The beats are hip hop, but the way I go on is a little less so,” tells ren.y.c. “It’sstill rap and hip hop but less hardcore.”Her new single, “Wicky,” was motivated by her passion for raising socialawareness. While the song itself has subtle references to school shootings, thevideo is “more in your face” according to the artist. “I wanted people to listen tothe song a lot and spread awareness,” says ren.y.c of her subtle approach towriting “Wicky.” “Yet the more you hear it, the more you think about themessage.”To write “Wicky,” ren.y.c approached songwriting by way of freestyling. “I got theconcept during the creation process, but I didn’t know if I’d stick with it. Then Ifreestyled and liked how it came out. Something happened and the whole secondpart got erased so I had to redo it. I didn’t go back to the song for a long time, butthen one day I went back and did it.” Fortunately for listeners, ren.y.c didn’t letthe song disappear into a creative black hole.“When I was younger, I always loved music, but I never thought that wassomething I could do,” shares the artist. Ren.y.c didn’t reach a crossroads todecide her fate. Instead, she just decided to go all in one day, and the people inher life were fully supportive.Coming up with a stage name, however, proved to be more of a challenge thancommitting to life as a musician. “I was putting off releasing music because Icouldn’t think of a name. My friend actually suggested ‘ren.y.c’ during a GroupFaceTime. I didn’t decide on it but everyone kept calling me that, so it stuck.”Up next for the artist is another single, titled “Sick,” due in late winter. Her goal for2024 is to “keep working every day.” We can’t wait to hear the output of herdedication.Make sure to stay connected to ren.y.c on all platforms fornew music, videos, and social posts.
