Thank you to everyone for 1K. It means the world to me that you want to be here. I've had more than a few questions regarding me in this channel so this weekend II will be doing a introspective perspective so you can get to know who BigMike is & why this channel is very personal & get a little insight on why mental health is so very important to BigMike. Leave him a question down below & catch BigMike's Intospective Perspective video coming this weekend. (11/10/24) Get a glimpse into the guy behind the lens.
My dear BigMike, gotta get a few things off my chest. Watching you for the first time I was a little uncertain about your physical responses to the song, (Hi Ren, I believe), yet they are ultimately what endears you to me. Many reactors seem forced in their enthusiasm, but your reactions are not manufactured for the purposes of false enthusiasm to drive up views. They come from a deeper place, that forgotten child in all of us who can react with glee, emotionally and physically at the moment. I find it easy to connect with you, soul to soul and heart to heart. And it's a delight to see that you miss no subtleties in Ren's performance or lyrics-very astute you are! Sorry to be so long-winded but I have subscribed and liked to all of your Ren work; hope to share the depths of his catalog here with you.
Thank you for that. I hope you’re enjoying as much as I do. I love the way you expressed that and I agree with that most can see when a reactor is just reacting to drive up numbers & not being real. It’s a money grab for those, I do this for me & now you & everyone else who has a passion for music and the story behind a song or artist. If I can do this as a career, it would be a dream come true so yeah, money could be a factor but it’s the passion & love right now. I especially love the community. People on most sites or comment sections don’t open up like I’ve seen in these. I hope you are enjoying it because I love interacting & just being me. Especially if I can tell a story or experience that helps, entertains or informs a person who needs it. And if I miss anything, 30-40 people will tell me. Been a lot of fun! Thank you
@BigMikeReactions I loved it, too. If you want to hear him on a more normal (but still Ren-ified) diss track, check out his King Dotta Diss, in response to a diss track King Dotta dropped. He references it in this beat down.
I love your reaction! 😂 Never piss off the quiet, kind ones. People mistake it for weakness, but FAFO to their own detriment. This is one of my go-to songs on angry days. Also, Little Girl Gone by Chinchilla. Congrats on the 1k!
😂😂 you’re as excited to watch this as I was when I first did. I absolutely felt his rage and it was delightful to bask in something so indulgent when normally I go all out to keep the peace. Sometimes …. A guy can only be pushed so far . Love the reaction man Ren is just straight 🔥 Cheers 🍻 🇨🇦🙂
8:04 first off sorry about the work BS. No one should act like a child in the workplace and personal stuff should be checked at the door! That being said…. I’m SO GLAD you know the back story and enough about the situation to do this song today cause there is none better! I’m so pumped to watch this with ya! Almost as much as the day it dropped… ok to be honest a long ways from that, I was beside myself watching all this crap unfold but this is a STRONG SECOND! LMAO Imagine realtime waiting a week from the explainer to the beatdown drop! It was the closest thing to Christmas as a kid I’ve experienced as an adult! Lmao! Let’s Go!!!
Absolutely I was on pins and needles during that week in between. Was so excited I had trouble falling asleep the night before like a kid Christmas Eve! 🤣 Just EPIC!
I absolutely did! This is why music is so important for me. It helps process and release and when it can make you feel? It’s why doing this is so good on so many levels. So honored people want to see it and I really appreciate that I can be me & people enjoy that. Thank you
Man - like your reactions, you’ve got inner edginess that leaks, and that’s real. No worries. I’ve had lads and lasses who worked with me. The best workers aren’t usually the ones you like best. Life is strange.
Great reaction, thank you. Sorry you had such a tough time at work. Hope things calm down. You seemed like you were feeling better by the end. Keep doing what you are doing. Positive vibes from the uk 🇬🇧🫶🏻
During this whole situation, it was discovered that Kujo had pulled this scam several times before. Ren invited one of those scammed to co-produce 'Money Ties', the first release after Kujo Beat Down. :) Kujo chose the wrong person to try to scam this time. Ren has very obviously 'taken him to the cleaners' behind the scenes! Nobody's heard anything from Kujo and his girlfriend since, lol. :) Ren also had a face-to-face meeting with the Global Head of TH-cam, who agreed that Kujo's copyright strike was illegal and revoked it, so Sick Boi is back up! :)
Great reaction. You definitely looked better by the end. Music is therapy for me as well. Don’t piss off the nice ones, it’s never a good idea. This happening was the start of the downward slide into his health declining again or part two would probably be out as he tried to claim he had something to do with the writing of Sicl Boi after this song. Ren is a good human where there are too few. This was a really shitty thing to happen to him. I hope the rest of your week gets better. Peace and love
He let his anger and frustration and even his hurt out in a safe healthy way. He has a disclaimer at the end that he would fight his own battles, he doesn't want the RENegades jumping in fighting those fights and he proved he's more than capable of doing so. The first time I saw it, I was like well ok not so much as Mustafa as it is Scar. O.o
You try, you try and you try some more to be the bigger person. You take loss after loss and when they come to expect that from you sometimes you gotta let the beast out to illustrate with absolute clarity why you aren't the one with whom to mess 🤯 That line "I'm the subject matter you are part of the scenery" hit me the same way! What a mic drop! And yes, I play this song once in a while to exorcise the demons when I'm in a mood ⛈️ It works great! Loving your reactions! Please keep 'em coming BigMike! Love from the Alexandria area...go Vikes 🫶
I needed to see this today, kujo represents about 51 per cent of the electorate for me. Sorry if people get upset with me but hey you got what you want now let me get what I need😮😅
Sorry for the crap you’re dealing with. I was so pleased to know what you were about to watch, when you were talking about your frustrations because I knew it would help!
Moral of the story - NEVER fuck with Ren ! Ren is normally consumed with love not rage, but this time he had to let it out - and boy did he let it out. Sadly Ren's health has taken a nosedive shortly after this and he is nearly bedridden again (not saying that the Kujo situation caused the relapse but it was probably a significant contributory factor).
Looks like someone had a very enjoyable “therapy session” with this one 😂 I don’t think I will ever quite understand how it all went from Kujo selling a beat with a stolen sample and the owners getting in touch for the publishing money they’re owed to then somehow escalating into Kujo and his lawyer using a mistake made by others, not Ren himself, to demand money from Ren as if he was the thief. It’s like there’s a huge gap and I suspect it’s between Kujo’s ears 👀 But at least we got this righteous rage! Ren showed us exactly what happens when you push the nicest guy in the industry too far… he needed to let the anger out somehow and boy did he do just that 🔥 Ren made history! Our sick boi was wronged and the hype to see him release his anger was insane. Pretty sure there was like twice the amount of people in chat for the premiere than we’ve seen before and so many reactors heard his call for support ❤️ It’s interesting that the community is so passionate because of how genuinely nice Ren is, yet we all LOVE seeing this side of him 😂 But as much as we love it and would love a part 2, for Ren’s sake I hope this is the end of it. He’s been through enough over this and just wants to move on 🖤
You were professional and the other person wasn’t. Sometimes we have to behave like the grownup, when someone is acting up like a bloody kid. They have made themselves look small by behaving like that. I think I will watch “Kujo Beatdown” next time I’m angry about something - as a way of letting off steam.
I saw it during editing & took a screenshot to put it on the end. Happy accident but looked great! Yeah I’ve done it before but I won’t redo videos on reactions. That’s why my first ones are real rough. I’m learning as I go but like Ren it has to be a one take shot but lots of edits when I get pedantic and won’t shut up. Thank you for watching
Congratulations! I doubt part 2 would be another video. I think it will be legal due to Kujobeats selling stolen work, defamation, etc. Kujo Beat Down was gentle compared to what Ren would unleash going the legal route. All Ren really wants is acknowledgment of stealing and selling someone else's work as his as well as an apology from Kujobeats. Ren is still willing to be the bigger person and put this behind him. I hope Ren is well enough soon to finish Sick Boi with his own beat and reissue the song on all platforms. I know Ren had planned to go to the Bulgarian choir directly to make sure they would get the appropriate compensation and record them for the updated Sick Boi track. His health took a steep nosedive before he could go.
Yes, sometimes the leadership has to stop and things become management matters. That can be a difficult transition to gauge, especially if your own manager is big on leadership, less focused on management. This is when you need HR - who need to be ALL about management, not leadership. HR should never use words like "inspire" or "motivate". Sounds like you're setting standards and expectations with your team (sound leadership), but the management side of things is being undermined by fuzziness outside your remit, and about what IS outside your remit.
great reaction, thanks mike, but when you try to extort extra money from someone after you sold him a sample. but you didnt own it. then tried to get ren to pay the money for you, yes youll eat crow.
I am interested in your particular physical and mental health issues. I think I might know but not sure I want to say it here. I will wait and see what you will share this weekend.. Better send a reminder, I have very bad memory. ♥
Thank you to everyone for 1K. It means the world to me that you want to be here.

I was already laughing my ass off. When you said "I was with you " I choked 😂😂😂😂
I believe the choir at the back represents the Bulgarian choir whose sample on kujos beat in sick boi was stolen.
What time will it be Mike?
So happy to see you sailing past 1k. You have a great mix of emotional reaction, breakdown and reflection, which only the best reactors can do.
I needed that this morning.
Your reactions when those chairs came out, priceless! 😂
Congratulations on 1K awesome reaction 👍👍 looking forward to the next
Looks like you hit this song with perfect timing ;)
Had it in my back pocket waiting for an appropriate time and this was for sure. Thank you

Well said
Vent all you want. We’ve all been there. Great reaction.
Artistic expression is a healthy way to process those dark feelings.
Couldn’t agree more! But…… it’s Ren??? I loved it
@BigMikeReactions I loved it, too.
If you want to hear him on a more normal (but still Ren-ified) diss track, check out his King Dotta Diss, in response to a diss track King Dotta dropped. He references it in this beat down.
I was curious about that. I’ll look it up
I love your reaction! 😂 Never piss off the quiet, kind ones. People mistake it for weakness, but FAFO to their own detriment.
This is one of my go-to songs on angry days. Also, Little Girl Gone by Chinchilla.
Congrats on the 1k!
“Never underestimate a silent man for an unskilled warrior.” One of my favorite quotes that fits more than perfectly here.
If you the watch "dumb king come diss" Ren tells king dotta. "I'm a fucking psychopath". Most of us Celts are crazy fuckers.
My job lost a uniform contract so we have no uniforms. No hand towels. No TP. Yeah we have to bring our own.
😂😂 you’re as excited to watch this as I was when I first did. I absolutely felt his rage and it was delightful to bask in something so indulgent when normally I go all out to keep the peace.
Sometimes …. A guy can only be pushed so far .
Love the reaction man
Ren is just straight 🔥
Cheers 🍻 🇨🇦🙂

Congratulations on your 1k mark. Loved your reaction, you did make me laugh out loud, it’s so cathartic
Great reaction ❤
Awesome react man! Really felt the energy and by the end it definitely seemed you felt a good bit better! Glad to see it! Have a great week man!
I absolutely did! This is why music is so important for me. It helps process and release and when it can make you feel? It’s why doing this is so good on so many levels. So honored people want to see it and I really appreciate that I can be me & people enjoy that. Thank you

I’ve had lads and lasses who worked with me. The best workers aren’t usually the ones you like best. Life is strange.
Your reactions are top tier bro much love and success from Ireland 🇮🇪
Good reaction. REN was clearly pissed about the situation and handled in a great way.
Great reaction, thank you. Sorry you had such a tough time at work. Hope things calm down.
You seemed like you were feeling better by the end. Keep doing what you are doing. Positive vibes from the uk 🇬🇧🫶🏻
Thanks for sharing part of yourself and thanks for your Ren reaction!
Great therapy session ❤☺️✌️thanks 👍
Such a great reaction 😅. Thank you Mike ❤

Subed for much more Ren!
#Renagades Elastic bands only stretch so far and then SNAP!
Great seeing your channel grow and walking with you on the journey
Great reaction. You definitely looked better by the end. Music is therapy for me as well. Don’t piss off the nice ones, it’s never a good idea.
This happening was the start of the downward slide into his health declining again or part two would probably be out as he tried to claim he had something to do with the writing of Sicl Boi after this song.

I hope the rest of your week gets better. Peace and love
Awesome reaction! Congrats on thr 1k 🎉
So much power released and the twisting of Hi Ren and the money game 3 warning and the money game 1 walk sublime and the ending of the choir 🎉
He let his anger and frustration and even his hurt out in a safe healthy way. He has a disclaimer at the end that he would fight his own battles, he doesn't want the RENegades jumping in fighting those fights and he proved he's more than capable of doing so.
The first time I saw it, I was like well ok not so much as Mustafa as it is Scar. O.o
Your anger is palpable.
It really was a nice release but the Pete & BAs reaction was my happy pill. I was in shock!!
Thank you ❤
You try, you try and you try some more to be the bigger person. You take loss after loss and when they come to expect that from you sometimes you gotta let the beast out to illustrate with absolute clarity why you aren't the one with whom to mess 🤯
That line "I'm the subject matter you are part of the scenery" hit me the same way! What a mic drop!
And yes, I play this song once in a while to exorcise the demons when I'm in a mood ⛈️ It works great!
Loving your reactions! Please keep 'em coming BigMike!
Love from the Alexandria area...go Vikes 🫶
Good song for a bad day! Love your reaction, Mike. Was this therapeutic?

There's a message you missed

Try an artist called Beth Hart and another called Raye x

Absolutely!! You hit that on the spot. Thank you, I just love the insight and yes HR was involved today. You weren’t there?? 😳 Thank you so much
🤣👻🙏🔥❤
😂😂❤❤
great reaction, thanks mike, but when you try to extort extra money from someone after you sold him a sample. but you didnt own it. then tried to get ren to pay the money for you, yes youll eat crow.
😂😂😂
💙🐷💙🫡🤠
I am interested in your particular physical and mental health issues. I think I might know but not sure I want to say it here. I will wait and see what you will share this weekend.. Better send a reminder, I have very bad memory. ♥
BTW, who first named you "Big Mike"?
Got it from my best friend James. He gave everyone a nickname he made and some stick like mine
