Gregory Muench
"Renegades" is a song by Japanese rock band One Ok Rock. The song was produced by Jamil Kazmi, written by Takahiro Moriuchi, Ed Sheeran and Masato Hayakawa of Coldrain, and was released on 16 April 2021 as the lead single from the band's tenth studio album Luxury Disease.[1][2][3]
"Renegades" has been described by critics as being an alternative rock and a pop rock song.[8][9][10] The track runs at 154 BPM and is in the key of F minor. It runs for four minutes and 5 seconds.[11] The song was written by Takahiro Moriuchi, Ed Sheeran, Masato Hayakawa, David Pramik, Adam Hawkins and Jin Jin.[12]
According to NME, "Renegades" is all about conveying an urgent message that calls into question about the current state of affairs in the world around us, and this would be how "Renegades" serves as an anthem for renegades who refuse to allow their battles and passions to be ignored.[1] In an interview with J Rock News, Moriuchi would express how the song connects to being the main theme for the Japanese blockbuster Rurouni Kenshin: The Final, in which he would say that "Renegades" relates more to the protagonist than the overarching plot of the film.
In another interview which was uploaded to the official One Ok Rock YouTube channel, Moriuchi would also explain about how "Renegades" needed to hark back to more of a rock sound in order to properly convey the message of the song, which has lots of anger in it.
The video starts off with individuals in desperation, struggling and in complete despair. As the video showcases these individuals, who eventually come together to form "The Renegades" as the song describes. The band performs the song in a different setting altogther to begin with, though as the crowd forms, the cliff face openes up as the renegades walk towards the band and then back the way they came from, with the band following in tow. The frontman, Takahiro Moriuchi, singing the song as well as the other band members performing the song are then suddenly transported to a mountainous region as an artificial sun forms behind them as they sing the rest of the song, calling out to the renegades who walk towards them, before they stare at the sun and watch the band perform the final chorus as the video ends.
The song has different meanings to both artists. Jay-Z's two verses deal with his fatherless childhood, and how financial difficulties faced by his mother forced him to sell drugs for survival (thus becoming a renegade to society). He states his demeanor was "30 years [his] senior," implying that hardships he faced during his childhood forced him to grow up and make adult decisions from a young age. Jay-Z argues that his music is the product of his rough upbringing, and that it speaks to others going through the same problems. Thus, he dismisses critics who lump him together with artists who only rap about "jewels". He accuses these critics of simply "skimming" through his music, instead of listening thoroughly.
"Supalonely," from New Zealand singer BENEE, had a couple of things going for it. For starters, it skyrocketed to popularity thanks to a viral dance challenge for the song created by Zoi Lerma. In addition, The Straits Times credits some of the song's success to the COVID-19 pandemic since people could easily make a connection with the song's theme. The song has been used in about 10 million TikTok videos.
