In Ren's acoustic version he's giving homage with the new opening to Ini Kamoze (In the streets they call it MURDER) but right after that Ren plays/sings the riff to Barrington Levy's "Murderer" including all the scatting Levy does in his version of the original before Ren goes into his own song "Murderer". Ren also gives homage to Dr. Dre with the guitar riff from Dre's "Next Episode" ft. Snoop Dog. (probably because this was shot in LA while Ren was on holiday). Also Ren say's (Beotch) in this version instead of the word (Bitch) which is in his original release, as a tip of the hat to Snoop who was the 1st to coin that word. As for guitar solo that Ren plays before the Dr. Dre guitar riff, I believe that was an homage to another one of Ren's musical influences, Django Reinhardt. Reinhardt, a famous Jazz guitarist, who if I'm not mistaken, was actually the 1st to introduce Jazz to the UK. This is very much a 30-40's guitar riff reminiscent of Reinhardt's music. Reggae, Ska and Jazz & Soul, are very big influences in Ren's music. 💖 Cheers! ✌😁
So sick... he gets increadably intricate in everything he does. They all have many layers to a degree most of us miss a lot of them. Such a musical genius!!!
Since you love classic hip hop like I do, I highly recommend Ren's latest release, HALFTIME (Nas Retake). Much like what Ren did in giving homage to the Beastie Boys in "What You Want" he does for one of our living greats in hip hop, NAS. He takes Halftime from Nas's iconic 1st album Illmatic and pay's homage to the man himself, giving this legend his well deserved flowers. It's 🔥🔥🔥👍
Ren dropped this on the 50th anniversary of hip hop, filmed in LA, homage to Snoop and Dre with the riff, “drop it like it’s hot” and “biatch”! Ren is hip hop, Ren is music 🔥🖤 You gotta do HALFTIME NAS RETAKE and BACK ON 74/ MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE RETAKE
Shit that "Back to 74" he just dropped is fucken amazing,of all his music that's a one of a kind automatic classic,the dude gets on my nerves with the talent lol...,but the back to 74 is just different soul touchin ish , Sunday church choir ish .... 🔥 🔥 Vid as always homie
He was in LA on business with his team. Gal is Brigitte who designs his merch. BTW. in Aug. Ren and his team is moving to LA . He is producing his next album there and wants to busk on Venice Beach!
I agree 💯- it's not just the easter eggs that he dropped in, music is his life force, his teacher, it has driven him forward when most would retreat into darkness from life's heavy handed curve balls. Thank you again for another excellent reaction! Ren dropped his retake of Nas' Halftime... next on your Ren list???
This is the beauty of Ren’s acoustic versions……they offer a different feel and reinvent the original. Your face when he drops in the riff……..😉😉 knew you’d love it. I reckon you should check out Animal Flow and follow it up with Animal Flow Acoustic. Same guy who filmed Murderer filmed the Animal Flow official music video (Luke Flegg). If not, Illest of Our Time. 🔥🔥
Ren is a full fledged, gold star, certified in every possible verification test, a hip-hop-ologist. Meaning he should have at least an “honorary” doctorate. Professor Ren.
Ren is just different 😂 The magic about his acoustic versions is how free and playful he is. Like they have obviously rehearsed it, but I don’t think Ren is 100% set on all the runs or scatting he spices it up with, yet every little thing he throws in there still sounds so damn good. Ren doing Ren things 😅
It don’t matter what’s next. Every new Ren some is my new favorite. I’m a 64 year ld white guy that has always been into Rock almost exclusively but I have always liked most everything. Ren is really special. Enough said.
You enjoyed it like we did Thanks!! 😊😊. Filmed in LA, he shouts out West coast rap. Last Tursday's drop, the Nas Halftime, Nas'' beat, Ren lyrics, an east coast tribute of sorts. . He did drop 2 others before that one. If you react to music other than hip hop, both of those are great, Ren style. . Back on 74/Message in a Bottle Retake and Fred Again Mashup. On those it's Ren's arrangement, with original lyrics except for the part in the middle, all Ren, on the Back on 74 joint.
Absolutely love your ren reactions... top tier 👌and your enthusiasm... brilliant thank you .. get so excited when they pop up in my notifications ❤ big love from 🇬🇧 ❤
Its in his bones, he was born with amazing talent that only comes once in a lifetime . Im 55 years young and have listened to all genre's of music since i can remember , i have never come across anyone like Ren , ever . I would describe Ren as a swiss army knife . Great reaction ❤. Maybe you could react to ren x eden nash, " ocean" mv
If music was a person, it would be Ren for sure!! Check out The Big Push, the Band Ren is a part of! They got a great medley of I shot the sheriff, Road to Zion and HipHop, live busking (a street performance)! But the Video with the red suspenders!
Ren just blows you away with all the knowledge of music he knows. His voice adopts to any environment too which is crazy! More Ren reactions. You will love his NAS retake. If you know you know!
Ren dropped 3 different retakes recently.,All of them are 🔥🔥🔥take your pick. I do think because you are a rapper you’d appreciate the Nas retake. Honestly I believe you’d appreciate all three of them so I hope you do get to all of them eventually. Thank you so much sir. I love your reactions.
Havoc ! ! P & R ! ! Ya ' ze Got ' ze The Great Sounding Voice Of A Roman Coliseum Gladiator Orative Broadcaster (( whew -- that took a lot out of me )) . G R E A T Reaction .
I’d have to look at your catalog of what you’ve done but I would suggest “power” or “Genesis” or some big push stuff which is the band he was in until he went to Canada for treatment
Ren's acoustics are just special. There are also acoustic versions of Genesis and Animal Flow, both are worth checking out if you haven't. Love the shoutout to Dre, given this was filmed in LA and released on the anniversary of Hip Hop 💜💜
Only ren can take one of his own rap songs, make it acoustic, and it sounds just as good if not better than the original 😂 hencovers his own songs so well💜

Ren is THE student of Music, evident in his genius.
I agree 💯- it's not just the easter eggs that he dropped in, music is his life force, his teacher, it has driven him forward when most would retreat into darkness from life's heavy handed curve balls. Thank you again for another excellent reaction!

Sure, why not!
Yesss🙌 We need to see you do his Nas Halftime retake from this week 🫶

He's SUCH an AMAZING ARTIST! 🔥🔥🔥💯😎✌️ 4:44 YES YOU DID!😏
hommage to Dre filmed in L.A. too
The rawness of his lives always makes u feel like u were there too. Coming from busking he never plays the same song the same way twice ever lol.
I think the woman is Brigit(not sure of the spelling) she did the artwork on the album sic boi ❤
Those are his peeps there with him, friends who are also camera crew, publicist, manager, etc.
Ren is just different 😂 The magic about his acoustic versions is how free and playful he is.

Love your joy when listening to this track.
Agreed that's what I think I enjoy about watching others listening to a track for the first time.
❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥 I love the studio version but this version is magic
Another fucking masterpiece...he's an alien
He was in LA he had to pay homage to the man who just got a star on Hollywood Boulevard.

Dope video!

" " I T G O E S D E E P E R

Ren's acoustics are just special. There are also acoustic versions of Genesis and Animal Flow, both are worth checking out if you haven't. Love the shoutout to Dre, given this was filmed in LA and released on the anniversary of Hip Hop 💜💜
🎉🎉🎉
Only ren can take one of his own rap songs, make it acoustic, and it sounds just as good if not better than the original 😂 hencovers his own songs so well💜
❤❤❤
LESSS GOOO
❤🔥
yes cause hes in LA
Yessss! 🍒🍒🍒
Nice
Bone Thugs🙌🙌🙌
Check Benny Banks - Dexter’s Lab 🔥🇬🇧
Did a feature and toured with Mac miller too, UK🐐
do his latest nas halftime retake
🔥❤️🔥
Every acoustic version of one of his rap songs is better - try Animal Flow first the rap then the acoustic ;)
Real artist can't be in the music industry because the industry always will kill real art that doesn't fit the agenda to fill their pockets
I don’t see money game three on your playlist you need to do that finish up the trilogy, you’re missing out.
I already did it. It's there.
Soooo... is the acoustic better then the MV for u?
not better, just a different feel to it.
Not better but unique
🔥
❤❤❤
