I just love them. Every thing from ren is on my Playlist, love him and Sam and chinchilla. Crazy good
Rapping to singing falsetto in a duet, while playing guitar, back to rapping to slam poetry to speed rap like what the fuuuuuuuuu!!! awesome.
Dope AF ik
When you're 58 years old and you find yourself shouting 'What the ****' at the screen you know you've just watched something special.
...unless it was during the news...
I discovered Ren a few months ago and cant enough if his music. I'm 67 and love all kinds of music. I'm absolutely blown away to know that theres a star being born and its called Ren. Btw, I've suffered depression for the best part of my life and still on an antidepressant at this age. I also live with chronic pain. Ren's music resonates down into my soul. Thank you maestro. Stay genius. Sam has a magnificent voice.
I dont understand why more people are not listening....
Because it is the opposite of "easy listening". I know someone named a genre like that, but that is not at all what I mean.
I am 72 years old, an old Folk, Rock and R&B kinda guy but what you guys bring to the table is incredible. Vocally you guys are great but even more the guitar work, the articulation, muting skills, chord vocabulary and rhythm changes are extraordiary! Bravo !
Exactly!
Much love on Dat bruv
I won one,111❤😂🎉hey man make a freaking Day!!!
I'm 66, and it's so nice to know that talent is still luves!
I can only assume what R&B actually means as it's become Rap and Bullsh*t.
Ren is doing something exceptional.
How I got here?
-Corona virus
-Algorithem
-Jenny's tale
-The love of good music
Love Jenny's Take. But I'm depressed, and it like thru me a little

-Yt's algorithm and the taste for Renny's music

never seen a performance from Ren that isn't 100% present, 100% commitment, 100% feeling
My 87 year old Irish nan was listening to this in my car humming and bopping along to this, made me smile so much.
That says so much about this song. Lyrically it's like pain and struggle being "blind eyed" to a melodic amazing wonderful and instrumental masterpiece!!
Literally listening to this with only my left earphone working , the irony
Tegan Eva samee
That's coincidence, not irony!
@@jeromedawson1753 how about no
@@teganeva you're not very bright are you
@@teganeva dumb how?
If I was an 18 year old lad I would probably say something like 'this is dope man'. I'm not. I'm a 50 year old woman. It's fucking awesome! These lads have GOT to make it.

This thing switches genres like 17 times and it's the best thing I've ever heard of each one.
Ren deserves all the success he is getting!!!
First time hearing Sam he is as amazing 🤩
@@SHAINON117Sam is great, but Ren is a all around genius. Wrote all the custom songs. Can play so many instruments. The voice. The vision. Sam is fire 🔥. No hate. Ren is just different.
I like Sam, his voice is incredible, but Ren is a whole other animal. He literally feels every word, he embodies every word. Very few artists can make you feel the draw emotion from their body actions. Play the video with no volume and watch Ren. Fucking incredible
this is even more present in his work on Skreech's tale or Jenny's tale ! his way to sing is straight up story telling.
I'm on a plane I can't complain.Sams fucking missing wife and mom
This is a great comment, MotherFucker Jones
Talent behond I love the change in his voice great duo
Animal.?....no... he's a Beast!!!
The ability Ren has to articulate his words so perfectly even at warp speeds with the accent he has is something special!!
Ren, I'm 55, a lifelong musician, and small town producer/writer. You my guy are legit! I hope you have all the success in the world and there's ZERO reason why you won't get that. Your talent is mesmerizing as well as your feel, soul, musical ability, presentation, and just vast plethora of musical gifts. So glad I discovered you a few days ago. It's one of the best musical things to happen to me. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world. Sam is amazing too. ☮
You're spot on Ken. I feel the same as you. RENs music is refreshing 😊
мне 57 и я тоже рад , что это услышал
LMAO, the way you mentioned Sam right at the end of your heart warming comment, and it’s just: “Sam was also there”
@@boogie2 not taking away from anyone. It was already long winded. Tons of talent from both of these guys. I’ll absolutely give credit where it’s due. Sam is a hell of a singer.
@@kensteckelberg7013 nah man, I’m not doubting your intentions at all. I just found it funny when looking at it from another angle lol.
Criminal that this song isn’t a global hit. Just beautiful
2:38 Sam got Ren shook wit that vocal run xD
But you also tell how much ren appreciates Sam's falsettos
SO ANGRY THIS DOESN'T FT ANGRY CARPARK MAN
Same he added a different perspective to the song
I'm lost?
You guys encapsulate this quote: "To live a creative life, we must lose the fear of being wrong." Beautiful mates. You inspire this old man to pick up his guitar again.
I'm 55 years old I was beginning to think there was no good music left in the world. You guys have changed my mind, restored my faith. Just phenomenal tallent! Amazing. Please don't ever stop!
WOW. Been diving into Ren for past month and every time I think I've seen the best he's got, I find another jewel. Not only that, but he's introducing me to all these other great talents he collaborates with~ Thank You REN!!!❤
That falsetto controll. Best I've heard, and I've heard alot.
Ren is the definition of a true artist his poetry rhymes his whole personality is amazing
It's crazy. You guys look like you are in someone's rec room about to play around with music equipment you got for Christmas. And then the music starts and you can't stop listening. It's mesmerizing. There is no concert by anyone that I would rather be at than right here. Amazing.
This is badassery!
Walk off the Earth Thanks walk off the earth!! You guys are fucking ridiculous too!!
Walk off the Earth (please read)

OMG, I just started listening to Ren a few months ago on TikTok, which has brought me here through a rabbit hole. This is some of the best music I have heard in years, maybe decades.
Holy crap. The talent is insane!
1:10 - for anyone coming from vinnie singing this song
I was looking for one of these comments😂
He didn’t sing it
@@isaiah6434 he was singing with the song he just didnt do the impressive vocal run like the tiktok comments say
4:02 OMG That smile when Sam see Ren spitting his bars so damn fast 🤣🤣 He looked so happy and proud of his friend, like "Thank God that I had him being with me like this". And I believe that Ren'd think the same way too. Love their friendship ❤
This lighter don't work, no
No flame to spark my goal
My Nike'es laced in dirt, oh
I've ended up treading on my own soul
My headphones only working on the left side
But I try, to live the right life
My eyes wide, and I strive
To stop my demons gripping, ripping from the inside
This road is dark and I can't find the batteries for my flashlight
I'm blind eyed and I'm tried
These drugs don't work
The pain it takes control
A blood-stained shirt
I feel like I'm always being chased by the devil
I tried to talk but I can't seem to get my spoken words right
And I t.t.t.t.t.t.try to keep my stutter light
And this life it can be ish right, cut you like a flick knife
Twist and make you sick right
An I think, (maybe I'll be better off alone)
So I redirect the calls from my phone
I learnt so many lessons from depression
But in essence I'm just wishing that these bad thoughts were gone
Sometimes I get these times when it's like time is against me
In my mind I kind of mind yeah that my mind can torture me
But I rhyme 'cause when I rhyme it's like my rhymes they set me free
And I shine so bright, I shine those times these rhymes come out of me
Sometimes I bleed
Sometimes I crawl, sometimes I slip, sometimes I fall
Sometimes times my back is up against the
Wall so hard that whole building could fall
Sometimes I bruise, sometimes I break
Sometimes I'm true, sometimes I'm fake
Sometimes I'm hoping for a moment when the floor
Would just start opening and swallow me for goodness sake
I think I'm gonna break cause I ache and it's bait
I'm awake in a world full of pain superman no cape
And I'm pressing the breaks but the breaks
They break and I'm driving my universe into a lake
And the weight, the weight of the world don't wait
We make mistakes when it's all at stake
We cook out cake we eat our cake
Sometimes no time for double takes but
(That's just the way life goes sometimes)
But I don't want to end up in the gutter being battered by my
Troubles face down in puddle where the sun don't shine So
I'm coming and giving it back, upon the track and attacking 'em
Stacking up beats like I did with this one I pack it in
And I'm praying, oh lord take this pain away oh
I've worked for 16 years at a mental health facility. I love what Ren is doing ao damn much
Quite simply……..pure talent in writing and performance!
2:18 Sam's reaction to Ren singing is gold
Wrong person it’s actually REN that reacts to SAMS singing
Nah its sam
It's gold him shaking his head in disbelief 😮
It’s no wonder they’re both blowing up here now in 2024!!! Two talented cats!!!!🔥💯
I too am 72 and I cannot get enough of this fabulous raw talent...
These lads have definitely found there song,that’s going to make them. It just like an actor/actresses who has found there big break in a movie.
I agree man was listening to it and just kinda pictured them winning something big with this song, props to these guys!
Their **
Spot on!

You just saved a lot of us time looking for lyrics ! I don’t even play music like this but I’m gonna learn it and add it to my set list.
Words.. 🤯❤🥰
Thank you for posting them.❤️
TY for this
Thank you ❤❤
I'm also 72 and you guys are fantastic. Love the guitar work, the voices, the variety, the lyrics. This is going on my favorites list. Thanks!!
65 next birthday, in love with thinking outside the box but you have taken it to a whole new level if it gives you goosebumps you have hit the spot amazing
You guys are great singers
What a voice Sam!
The older people who have heard it all are in awe and feel the need to state their ages in making comments to emphasis the rareness of such creativity and talent ! I'm sixty-six and know!
Really great song writing and lyrics. So underrated and overlooked. Glad he is finally getting the shine he deserves. Brother is breaking the mold of what a musician and rapper is before he came along.
Sincerely,
Newly minted Ren super fan for life.
this is like 5 songs. they are all good. very good.
The highs sound incredible
Thank you Ren for getting me out of bed to carry on. I only have 20 years left if I'm lucky. I shouldn't waste it.
This was the 2nd ren song I found and this song helped me out of a terrible place in my life. This song got me to smile again and. Bringing me back to the love of singing cuz I can't dance anymore but I can still sing, thank you both love this song

Oh Sam, what a beautiful voice. I feel truly blessed to have found this video tonite. You and Ren incredibly talented.
This song could not get better Sam and Ren are superlative!!!
It was aggravating when I found out people thought vinnie was singing.. but glad sam and ren got some more views on there amazing work, was waiting for this day to happen 🤘🏼
I love hearing this at different stages of their careers because I LOVE this song
I never thought I would like music like this. WOW, I was so wrong! This is awesome! LOve it!!!!!!
Five years ago I discovered Ren with this magic video, thank you.
My father and I listened to these songs before he passed away recently and the raw emotion in this take hits me so much harder will always love this music
I'm so sorry
That was incredible....both of you guys were Super!💯✝️❤️💫
Hair standing up on my whole body. A devastating hit of harmony. Absolutely beautiful, keep up the realness and tunes that are dark but make you smile, give you hope and a reason to fucking live, to keep going, to let yourself cut the demons out with a quiet but mesmerizing chain saw. Atleast for me. Thank y'all again for helping me cry but with a eery comfort and uninterrupted beauty. Crazy right? Maybe somebody gets it✌🏻
Wow, this comment is poetry 👌
Unreal talent. Pure freaking talent...
REN IS A WHOLE DIFFERENT DIMENSIONS OF UNDERSTANDING AS AN AUTISTIC ADULT LET ME JUST SAY REN ABSOLUTELY DEFINITELY CERTAINLY UNDERSTANDS THE ASSIGNMENT HE IS SHAKESPEARE WITH A GUITAR AND HIS MUSIC MAKES ME FEEL SO GOOD 😅❤🎉
The "Oh Lord take this pain away" hit so different
Love Sam's voice in this version, so much more soul and imperfection, that coupled with rens voice and guitar mastery. You compliment each other so very well.
Bopping away, like there's no tomorrow, to this
This is one of my favorite songs. ✌️&❤️
The more I listen to this song the more I love it… yeah I’m late to the party but I just can’t get enough
Ren’s magical guitar skills blend perfectly with Sam’s singing skills! What a show!!
Wow! Just wow! ❤
You never cease to amaze me old man in a young man's cape
Ren = gold, but so is Sam, great duo! thanks both for making my day with this song!!
Absolutely hysterical 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’ve just heard this song for the first time and it’s lyrically perfect. I thought this must be a cover. You forget there is so much unsigned talent out there.
Talent and lungs for days! 🎉❤
58 yrs old,ive just been shown the best artist in the last twenty yrs ,love the fact my foot keeps tapping time.AMAZING.CHEERS BRUV from New zealand.
Love you two collaborating ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for the intro to Music Crowns!
My god you guys are unreal! I can’t even!
Jesus, am I supposed to feel like I've been running up the stairs at the end? Fantastic!
Cant believe i only just found you
You guys rock ❤❤❤❤❤
honestly the best symphony on the tube, grace these x
❤ Every word, so carefully chosen. Every line feeds my Soul. It's been a long time since I heard music that connects with something ethereal. I'm too old to have an obsessive crush, but I'm absolutely obsessed with everything I find that has Ren on it. Love, love, love it! Just connected to the Great I AM. Thank you for creating real music. It's been some time since we had that.
Couldn't have said it better
REN
a beacon of light, I see you, I am that what you are. I removed the observer and now I am everything.
Them vocals goin crazy %100
Ren is so amazing and unique
Amazing, the talent in that room would hold the roof up even if the walls fell in.. bravo to both of you!
What the hell did I just witness?! Unbelievable - I knew what I was getting when rens name popped up but Sam Thompsons - holy hell!! What a voice! Those runs were gorgeous - can’t stop smiling :)
Seeing ren get recognition recently makes me happy.
These guys are going to be the next big thing...
I doubt it, they need a different source of exposure . They should really audition to a Got Talent Show.
No dude..REN Was signed by Sony...he got very very sick and lost his career. He was in a NETFLIX documentary called UNREST. th-cam.com/video/zLQtYJfMm4k/w-d-xo.html
The next big push
@@jackferguson8426 I see what you did there
@@meanjustice629 this
when asked, i tell people my favorite genre of music is "UK street emosoul garage blues-hop, live."
I'm so far down the Ren rabbit hole. That's what I think. And then there's more. So much more. Thank you Music Crowns. Headphones only working on the left side but working to live my life on the right side.
I'm 62 and totally enjoying my new Ren obsession! Thanks for making new music exciting!
How many times can I like this? 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻as many as I want!!!

I am new to ren but everything I have listened to is brilliant. Under rated
I will always count my self lucky. On a Saturday afternoon in the sun in Brighton watching this very talented two busking in Brighton!! Love my hometown!! You both followed your dreams and how amazing you have both done !!!
Ridiculously amazing. Cross genres, lyrically superb, memorising to watch. I need your vocabulary to even try and begin to describe how brilliant you are Ren and you and Sam on this is just...just... arrghhhh 👌😍😍😍😍 I'm years late to discovering your talent Ren but I'm so grateful I finally have!!!!
And I'm 43 by the way!!!
