Chris Rene's debut video for 'Young Homie,' the original song that he performed on 'X Factor,' which helped make made him a fan favorite and landed him a third place finish, has finally dropped. It's a terrific first look at Rene, namely for pop music fans that didn't watch the show and have no prior knowledge of this charming talent.
Melanie Amaro may have walked off with the top prize of $5 million and the title of 'X Factor' winner, but third runner-up Chris Rene and fan favorite Astro have both signed deals with their mentor L.A. Reid's Epic Records. It proves you needn't be the winner to enjoy the spoils.

It showed viewers a different side of Rene's smooth R&B and hip-hop lite style. With his black cap and suit, he looked like a modern day Rat Packer, albeit with an edge. It's like there is a shining star inside of Rene and the emanates from within.
