Ill = unhealthy. I think it’s used much more in that context in the UK, but Ren actually made a community post on his channel because some people have been misunderstanding the title of this track. It’s a very similar naming convention to “Sick Boy”.
@@MorteDallAlto possible spin on Licensed to Ill? He did drop What You Want just a few months ago with loads of Beastie Boys references - title included.
Well the controversy is helping him, but literally he explained that he guesses he is always going to be trying to fight his disease and that he has accepted it.
Yeah it’s ill as in sickness both as in health and rapping. There are lots of doubles referencing his health and rapping. Just everybody is taking it in the rapping context
So I'm back again a year later to check out your reaction once again 😊 I will be 60 this year, Hippie Rocker Chick, a music FREAK!! 😀 I have experienced music from the 1960s to today, but I sincerely have NEVER experienced any band or singer or lyricist quite like Ren!! I am obcessed and loving it!! I LOVE Ren and his music!! We are witnessing greatness that only comes once in a lifetime! 😊 Thanks for sharing this with me!!
I think this song grants us access to Ren's mind. It shows a constant struggle of dark and light, psychosis, depression and incredible talent. He has been fighting this physical and mental condition for so long- sometimes you just need to let off some steam 😂😂😂
Jenny and Screech is story telling at its finest. If you want Rap bars, check out Losing It, What You Want, Genesis, The Hunger. Ren will slip rap bars in songs with beautiful singing as well, listen to Ocean or Humble. He's got flow and lyricism, just dig around a bit.
Do the exact order for Jenny and Screech then Violets Tale. If you want you can find the video where it has all 3 together so you can watch them all at one time, or you can do it separately. Either way I'm looking forward to your reaction. Now go get something to eat😂
Illest of our time refers to his actual hellacious experience with Lyme disease, for which he was misdiagnosed for years and nearly killed him. It was through dealing with the bitterness of that near decade long constant physical and mental pain and debilitation that inspired 'Hi Ren'.
❤ Going down the rabbit hole??? Hang on tight....🤤 It's a bumpy ride! I've jumped a bit ago... I haven't reached the bottom yet and not one regret! 2 bands in and a bunch of busking in here! It's a gnarly view! *Words of caution hair-pin turns and time loss! Peace and love always until there is no more!😊❤
the line "and when I take from the rich Im in your hood and Im Robin (robbing)" can be seen as message to more prominent and rich rappers. Hes in their hood and robbing...what is he robbing? Attention...and the bigger he gets, the more money hes "robbing" from the "rich in style". 😁
Jenny & Screech is special. He has a montage of all 3 videos together called "The Tale of Jenny & Screetch - Full". It's different in the best way possible. We need unique music like that. And he addressed the title "Illest of our time" and he didn't mean he's the "best", it's a double on being sick but he elaborated in a post earlier.
If your not sure of him being the Illest Of Our Time, here's why he is. I've listed 1 cover and 3 originals (he wrote) of him with his band The Big Push and 3 more of his rap singles. After that tell me he's not the illest.

@@guttersnipe77 I do, I'm just playing along with the reactors own words instead of trying to explain what Ren is really saying and giving them other music; that aren't necessary raps, to choose from. Would you like a little breakdown to prove I'm not like 70% of the reactors that have the bars go over there heads? While so many of these reactors get all excited when they hear the 'Hardy Brothers line, and get all excited saying "Ya man WWE, Wooo Hooo" instead I'm thinking about the real meaning of the entire "I don't feel so well" section. I don’t feel so hot my brother Aching, shaking, stop then stutter Things gone wrong Hit by King King Kong A Swan-ton bomb like Hardy Brothers I don't feel so fresh my bro Things get slurry speaking slow Head in Hong Kong wonton soup Is what I have for Brains I know He's explaining what he's been through, his symptoms, how he feels when he's at his worst, aching, shaking, stuttering. What the pain actually feels like. Second stanza is some of the effects and damage caused by the years of having Lyme disease. The Lyme ate away at the membrane surrounding his brain. That's why he's in Canada being treated by one of the only specialists in the World who may be able to save him from possible brain damage and further complications. When it all goes well (I"M PRAYING) it's giving him a chance at a long and healthy life. Cheers man🤑
I think the play on words using 'illest' in the title is confusing to our cousin's across the pond. I see the state of the UKs awful collapse, NHS strangled by gov.uk. New monarchy taking over the old establishment when it should be abolished, unfair distribution of wealth, the UK is in crisis, that's why it starts with air-raid sirens. Time to take cover. Ren is anarchic in this song, I see it as his 'god save the queen' We don't call Brighton, B-right on! for nothing.
People in the UK are fucking angry right now...this echoes our anger beautifully, he shouldn't have to bring tears to our eyes with every song....we have other emotions.
@@robmarar I just reread you're original post a completely misread it, thinking you was saying the complete opposite. My bad (as I think the youth of today say)😎
The pig at the beginning opened the door to what’s in his mind , illest of our time is a double because he he can basically do any genre and play multiple instruments but also he’s been fighting illness and Lyme disease for a long time 🔥 Mary poppiins bar is because sugar helps the medicine go down which he takes a lot of also his music is poppin🔥🔥reaction
When you start digging up more Ren nuggets, you will find high quality music, rap,storytelling, singing, songwriting and performance art! He is super talented and has a huge following, all while being an independent artist! I am so grateful 🙏 to have found his work and I'm sure you will enjoy your dive into his world! 😊 and illest of our time refers to his being ill with Lyme disease!
That’s a double entendre. He’s rapping about being great at rapping while using metaphor to talk about his Illness. The line about getting bronchitis and being in your funeral coffin (coughing) is reference to autoimmune disorders where simple infectious diseases are a possible death threat.
Well at least you picked up on the fact Rens sick in the head... 😂 Hopefully the treatment he's recieving in Canada will ease the brain damage caused by a decade of misdiagnosed Lyme Disease... Can't wait to hear the rest of the Dark album and if this is Rens dark side his light Album will be so beautiful... Im grateful he and his friends pre recorded both albums last year so he could release them this year while he is in treatment this year... ❤️🇬🇧❤️ Thank you for giving Ren a listen with an open mind 👍
I am no rapper but I have been studying chemistry with my son, have mental health issues and love Freddie Mercury. Correct me if I’m wrong but I think that Freddie Mercury bar was a triple? I’m heavy(his material is deep and dark), Mercury is a ‘heavy’ metal on the periodic table, he’s calling out an homage to Freddie Mercury and shit, he’s calling back /cycling back to his Freddie Kruger reference earlier because he’s going heavy on the track? Ok. Is that quadruple?! Someone help me out here. P.s. I’m an ex pat Brit living downunder. I can attest that illest in US slang is different to what Ren is referencing. It’s a play on words in the title-Ren is literally I’ll in real life and he’s figuratively inviting you into the mind of one of the most unstable fictional characters of our times and identifying with Holmes’s psychosis. Anyone familiar with Sherlock Holmes knows that he was written as a mentally unstable opium addict and his sidekick, Watson was his calming , real world anchor who sorted out the noise in Sherlock’s manic mind and offered a ‘real world’ alter ego who kept bringing Sherlock back from madness. REN is figuratively taking you into the mind of an ‘ill’ character, elementary school In Britain is similar to saying you’re starting elementary school, the Sherlock bar is also shot in an elevator presumably at the ground floor or basement level, but also another definition of elementary= it makes sense-to Ren to start you off at the beginning of his tale. That’s what I got from all that. Note he also emphasizes the word ‘I guess’ at the end and closes his eyes intentionally to shut you out of his mind, I’m guessing. Keep reacting, mate. I enjoy your style. Cheers!
I was a bit unclear on the elementary school part. Not sure but I think both the UK and US have ‘elementary schools’? We don’t in Australia. Just for an fyi. They call them primary schools here K-6.
@@tinamuellergriffiths2071 Thanks. We have primary schools here in my part of Australia. I left the UK when I was in junior school and that was a bloody long time ago. 🤣🤣
‘Genesis’ is gold bars, killer beat, but a more formulaic rap construction of chorus|verse|chorus - but it’s Ren so it’s deep. ‘The Tale of Jenny and Screech’ (trilogy) is story time, a very dark story - it’s kinda genius. You’ll love them both.
Loved it! Thanks for checking it out still hot from the press! Jenny/Screech and Violet Tale (in this order or full version) is ... no spoilers, but amazing. For rap - Hunger, Genesis, Loosing it, Money Game 2, Love Music 2 and 3! Enjoy!
Listen his band The Big Push and their cover of Bob Marley/Dead Prez called “I shot the sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop” if you want more chill with amazing guitar and singing. The Tale of Jenny and Screech (FULL) trilogy isn’t bars. It’s a masterclass in story telling. Probably The Hunger, Losing It, Genesis, and an old school nod to the Beastie boys called What You Want would be his most bar heavy hip hop tracks.
great reaction, but it's interesting how quite a few American reactors, take the title "Illest of our Time" as meaning that he's hinting how great he is. When its far from it. It's about his mental "ILLNESS" and the suffering over the years, being misdiagnosed with Lyme Disease, the reason for most of his health problems. In Plain English, the title means "Most Unwell of our Times" I thought you might have got it in the last verse. which is all about his mental health and depression. The last verse was the biggest hint ever, It began with "I don't Feel So Well" and he said it three times. But the title it could be a a double 😉😊
I really never liked rap but I honestly enjoy what I call ren rap Maybe because he kinda lets us in his mind a little and feel like it always has meaning and substance But you reactors have helped me understand most of these songs and I thank you for that Some is hard for me but I seem to accept more from him because he is such an open book maybe.. he is definitely special ❤
Jenny and Screech definitely, but you have to go for the "(full)" version to watch all three songs (1. Jenny 2. Screech 3. Violet) at once in correct order
Jenny and Screech is story telling. truly engrossing story that goes straight to the brain and the heart. Art. You should experience it, you will not be disappointed
next song 1. genesis (also a live one too for this track) 2. power 3. losing it, after all this its not rap but u should check it cause u will undersstand more about ren! chalk outliness and then how to be me. both amazing! then one of my favorites blinded eye mc sessions, gl ill check back in a few days
Man can’t wait for you to react to masochist by ren, lots of old rap references in there that I know you’ll break down better then anyone with your knowledge, let’s go ! 👍
I think hes basically playing on all the illest people and what that means. Probably reflecting on his own battle with Lymes disease and the misdiagnosis from a decade ago. Which caused alot of unnecessary complications
Bro... you want Lyrical works from Ren... Insomnia, Ocean, Humble, Hold On, Life is Funny, and Blind Eyed... the Cafe version is best lyrically... but the official video is Awesome... but then the Live version where the Angry Parking Lot Attendant is close to perfect! Solely due to the fact its off the charts, cuffs, wholey performance artistry!!!
I think ren is divided into categorys if you want " bars " then "The hunger"... "genesis".. " Losing It -fisher rap retake". then there are the other sides "hi ren, "Sickboi" "tale of jenny and screech" another bunch "heretic" "Do you Believe " " diazepam" "hold on" then the Duo,s with chinchilla like "chalk outlines" and "how to be Me" then you can go further down that rabbit hole..
Gotta react to his song Suicide and For Joe. Tribute to his lost friend Joe... How to Be Me LIVE is also beautiful. More of his singing side. He sings like an angel. He just dropped A mash up of Fred Again, 5 edm dance tracks broken down in a acoustic form.
His thing about depression reminds me of a Tech N9ne line. He said something like, "I'm not famous, I'm just a fuck up and ya'll desire pain." Kind of like how many artists use music as an escape or an outlet and people connect with it. You see that everywhere, even in comedy, where it really doesn't make sense, but look at how many comedians we've lost to depression. Pain can make us strong and depression is something people find a natural attraction to. Humans are pretty fucked up. Lol
@H8TFUL JAY His last bar, “Illest of our time” was another play on words. Meaning that he is ill with Lyme Diseases, and suffers from depression. Of all the ill artists, He is the Illest of our Time!

7:35 - Nothing anyone else says can ever bring me lower than I bring myself. Depression is a bitch, but it's a hell of a sparring partner.
"Losing it" is a good one for skills but not too deep though, just fun and driving. It's a good track.

can be seen as message to more prominent and rich rappers.

Ren's Bars can be found in Losing it, What you Want, Power, Genesis, Sick Boi.
And The Hunger, Love Music 1,2,3
Losing it is like 5 songs in one and it’s so high energy and fun, love

Frickin love Rens music!! He is DOPE❤

Holy shit, you, Ren & this track have mashed up my brain &ive no marbles left but im fykn hp ❤
" similies & shyt " yeah 😂❤
I really never liked rap but I honestly enjoy what I call ren rap
Maybe because he kinda lets us in his mind a little and feel like it always has meaning and substance
But you reactors have helped me understand most of these songs and I thank you for that
Some is hard for me but I seem to accept more from him because he is such an open book maybe..
he is definitely special ❤
Love all your reactions to Ren never listened to rap until i found him love his vibes very talented young man he's gonna do great things ❤️
You're hungry? Maybe you should have some alphabety spaghetti. Hi Jay

Tale of Jenny & Screech (Full) which includes Violet's Tale. For most bars Losing It (retake) & Money Game 1 & 2
Samson - “ ball if I want to “
you need to look into Rens life ! you will understand his music even more!
If this is set in stone this is how its "mint" to be
Great reaction as always Jay 💚
Just do all of them, you won't be disappointed. 😂
i really dig your Ren reactions.
thank you for my time Jay.
To Both accounts, you welcome and thank you my g!!
This one is written/performed by "Screech" not Ren if you know what I mean.
Man can’t wait for you to react to masochist by ren, lots of old rap references in there that I know you’ll break down better then anyone with your knowledge, let’s go ! 👍
I got a few I let a few slide cause I was feelin the vibe, sometimes I get so caught up in the song I forget to react but I def caught a few
I think hes basically playing on all the illest people and what that means. Probably reflecting on his own battle with Lymes disease and the misdiagnosis from a decade ago. Which caused alot of unnecessary complications
Silver, iron, mercury elements
Bro I FCKN LOVE your intro lol
Demi Gorgon of Oppen - I immediately envisioned Oppenheimer "I am become death, destroyer of worlds"
Hey Jay, hope this finds you well n happy, great react, in comes Ren with another banger🔥
I've never looked it up, but the O.B.Free line, I think, refers to the O.B.E.
✌️💚💪
If you do Screech’s tale, you have to do Jenny’s Tale, Screech’s Tale and the. Violet’s tale together, and in that order.
Bro... you want Lyrical works from Ren... Insomnia, Ocean, Humble, Hold On, Life is Funny, and Blind Eyed... the Cafe version is best lyrically... but the official video is Awesome... but then the Live version where the Angry Parking Lot Attendant is close to perfect! Solely due to the fact its off the charts, cuffs, wholey performance artistry!!!
I think ren is divided into categorys if you want " bars " then "The hunger"... "genesis".. " Losing It -fisher rap retake". then there are the other sides "hi ren, "Sickboi" "tale of jenny and screech" another bunch "heretic" "Do you Believe " " diazepam" "hold on" then the Duo,s with chinchilla like "chalk outlines" and "how to be Me" then you can go further down that rabbit hole..
Diazepam is a great tune
Not pause pads 🤣
Pow Pow lol 💥
Hey you should do Hope.. NF
✌️💚💪
💗💗💗
Gotta react to his song Suicide and For Joe. Tribute to his lost friend Joe... How to Be Me LIVE is also beautiful. More of his singing side. He sings like an angel.
He just dropped A mash up of Fred Again, 5 edm dance tracks broken down in a acoustic form.
Playlists would make your content sooo much better so we can binge watch certain artists you react to ❤
I’m gonna watch
That wonton line is very clever
His thing about depression reminds me of a Tech N9ne line. He said something like, "I'm not famous, I'm just a fuck up and ya'll desire pain."
Kind of like how many artists use music as an escape or an outlet and people connect with it.
You see that everywhere, even in comedy, where it really doesn't make sense, but look at how many comedians we've lost to depression.
Pain can make us strong and depression is something people find a natural attraction to.
Humans are pretty fucked up. Lol
@H8TFUL JAY His last bar, “Illest of our time” was another play on words. Meaning that he is ill with Lyme Diseases, and suffers from depression. Of all the ill artists, He is the Illest of our Time!
Ren-i shot the sheriff cover and chalk outlines
❤❤❤
The whole thing is a double...listen through the "lens" of each meaning: illest, then again as illest.
Love music might be cool and not so violent bar heavy. There are three parts, and they are all fun, or Power. I forgot if you did Genesis?
Demigorgon of HAWKINS!!!!! It’s his accent
