René has received numerous golds and platinums for his songs and has found success in Europe (primarily Germany and Switzerland) and South America. René's more recent songs are a departure from eurodance, but he still produces decent eurodance tracks such as Moscow (2001), No More Pain (2003), and Amazing Life (2005).
One of his singles, Chihuahua, was used in a Spanish Coca-Cola commercial. In 2003 it was re-released due to its huge success and it ended being the second best selling single of the year world wide. In December 2004, the Cantonese version of Chihuahua was written by Wyman Wong as the theme song of the same product. This version was performed by Joey Yung.
In 2004, as a result of the success of Chihuahua, René was awarded the Swiss award for Showbusiness at the Swiss awards, an annual event meant to recognise high achieving Swiss people.
As well as being a eurodance performer and producer, René is also a talented choreographic dancer.
During 1993 René met Nancy Rentzsch; she joined his team in 1995. René and Nancy became a couple and in 2002 they married and had two children, Jamiro Rene (born October 8, 2002) and Kayley Nancy (born September 29, 2006).
DJ Bobo’s became a United Nations World Food Programme National Ambassador Against Hunger in October 2006, becoming the first Swiss celebrity to take up the role. He was also a participant in the 2006 Geneva Walk the World event.
On October 11, 2006 DJ Bobo announced in a press conference that he has applied to represent Switzerland at the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 with his song "Vampires are alive".

JEALOUSY
DJ Bobo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
First comes luxury that's all they see
Jealousy
How could I believe you
Jealousy
You can't find the key without honesty
They want my money they don't care about me
No more jealousy insanity eternally in memory
I see they want my money they don't care about me
Free is what I wanna be
Always think twice about the things you say or do
Cause one day the lie you believe will become true
Stop spreading all the rumours I told you a long time ago
But now you're a liar you're a liar
Another rumour's going round and round
What a foolish answer I have found
You're a liar without any shame
Everywhere they mess around
They're playing wicked games
Jealousy
First comes luxury that's all they see
Jealousy
How could I believe you
Jealousy
You can't find the key without honesty
They want my money they don't care about me
Life is tough so you gotta get tougher
Rough enough not like a toy of joy and pain
You blamed my name it's a shame life ain't no game
Like truth or dare I care I swear
I was there anytime anyplace anywhere
I doubt how to heal an open wound don't turn around
Did you forget I was your friend trust in someone and I found
Out you're a liar you're a liar
Hard to find out who's an honest friend
Trust in someone who you understand
I am tired of this jealousy
I walk this way on heaven's road
Accept my destiny
Jealousy
First comes luxury that's all they see

How could you deceive me
Your life becomes a lie
Stop spreading all the rumours
I'm feeling abused
No more jealousy insanity eternally in memory
All for one one for all could be reality
I see they want my money they don't care about me
Free is what I wanna be
Always think twice about the things you say or do
Cause one day the lie you believe will become true
Stop spreading all the rumours

Jealousy
The song "Jealousy" by DJ Bobo is about mistrust and dishonesty in relationships. The song suggests that money can be a driving force for many people, and they may deceive others in order to acquire it, even at the expense of hurting those who trust them. The first verse emphasizes this point, as the singer observes that luxury is all some people see and they don't care about the person behind the money. This leads to jealousy and mistrust.
The chorus describes how honesty is the key to resolving jealousy, but it can be difficult to find. The singer urges people to think twice about what they say and do because lies can become reality, leading to a loss of trust and more jealousy. The second verse speaks to the pain of being betrayed by someone who was trusted, as the singer feels hurt and abused by the rumors being spread about them.
Overall, the song speaks to the idea that trust is essential to any relationship, and jealousy and mistrust arise when that trust is broken. The singer suggests that it is important to be aware of people's motives and to always be truthful to avoid the pain that comes with dishonesty.
