Rene Lopez (born August 6, 1969) is a disco, funk, and electric latin soul musician and singer-songwriter based on New York City.

Rene Lopez II was born August 6, 1969 in the Bronx, the son of an Italian mother and Puerto Rican salsa musician, Rene Lopez, Sr., who played trumpet during the heyday of Fania Records with the Ray Barretto Orchestra and Típica 73, bands beloved by New York's Latin community.

When a kid, Rene Lopez was heavily into Led Zeppelin and Prince. Especially Prince influenced his music style, to bring different types of music together.

NPR's Alt.Latino referred to Rene Lopez's music as one of Alt.Latino's favorites of 2014.
