I'm 7 0years old and I'll tell you right now this kid is possibly one of the most important entertainers walking the planet not just for his creativity and brilliance but also how many people he will be able to help psychologically and physically because everything he has been through
💯 agree ❤ he's soooo wise, pure talent, musical and lyrical genuis. Says me the 50 year old woman who's also worked with and struggled with my own serious mental health issues, including Psychosis. Can totally relate , he's next level musician ,Artist, poet, lyrical genius and amazing Producer ❤❤❤xx
@@carlabruce3971 HA HA ❤️ one minute everyone was older than me, then I must have blinked and everyone was suddenly younger than me 🤣🤣 so it’s refreshing to see someone older than me for a change 😂 But u not wrong about the young lad Ren, he’s got a wise head on them shoulders and can put across emotions with his words at ease. He’s got some lovely tunes but `suicide’ broke my heart and had me balling like a baby 😢 but I can’t only relate when he sings of the meds he was on 👍 not good for us 👍 ✌️&❤️ lass, as that’s all we have ✌️&❤️👍
I hope Ren knows how incredibly happy we all are that he was able to claw his way out of the deep, deep cavern in which he found himself. His ability to share his journey has to be helpful for those millions who are still in their cave of pain or suffering. I hope Ren is eventually able to fully experience life with less focus on his health journey.. I wish him continued health improvement.. and peace of mind!
I'm old enough to be Ren's Gran. I am blown away at the brilliance of this young man. I have struggled with Chronic Autoimmune illnesses and Chronic Pain injuries since I was 12 years of age. Like Ren I spent years being misdiagnosed and because of reaction to meds was sent into psychosis. Have struggled against the horrific medical community for years now. Bless you dear Ren for your brilliance in telling the stories of the desperate need for change in Western Medicine. And for your outstanding gift as a creative genius.

The surprise of the host - ppl still aren’t aware of the scale of medical gaslighting. Especially for female patients.
He has a level of intimacy in His material that brings a raw authenticity. I feel ashamed listening to him that I can't even reach that level of intimacy in my own private relationships. Shameful
Hi Ravenwild. Have you heard of the Medical Medium? He has amazing info about what is causing all these auto immune conditions. Millions of people are getting well from doing this plant based diet. I really would love to get in touch with Ren to share this info and something that could help him and so many others. I had Lymes and other chronic condition and I am healing so well now without any medication. Do you know how I could contact this wonderful young man?
Fad diets from 'gurus' are not the answer. Besides which, Ren is highly allergic to virtually all food. The only thing his body accepts, most of the time, are a couple of different types of organic meat and 3 or 4 different organic vegetables. Thus he has virtually the same plain meal, every single mealtime and nothing in between those meals. He's tried widening his diet on many occasions but it's never ended well. If he followed your guru's diet, he'd be dead not long after doing so.
Yes, this one had me crying, so much, as I am sure it did for so many others. I think the power of it was fueled by the focus that was on Ren the person, rather than primarily Ren and his music. Incredible interview, and yes pamquick600, this really does need to be shared and shared again. There is something extraordinary here that needs to be heard.
Ren now has the Number one uk album since this interview. If ever there was a young man more grounded and intelligent to cope with success it’s him. We from his home town, Brighton, are so pleased for him, what an international phenomenon. Well done buddy. ❤️
What a wise soul. Wisdom just flows out of him, seemingly effortlessly, which is a true sign of the fact that he's surmounted many hard struggles. And I am ever grateful that he's so open to sharing about his highs and lows.
I just need all of Rens fans to know that you all are the largest part of why I havent tried killing myself again... Thank you all for giving me the hope I've always looked for in humanity. 💓
Please don’t. I wasted so many years being in that mindset, almost two decades and until I really took charge of myself.. I never knew how beautiful life could be. No one is coming to save you, you absolutely have to save yourself. You are worthy of the fight and life CAN and WILL be enjoyed by you. You just have to fight to get it 🫶🏼 I believe in you and everyone else that is struggling ❤ You are loved and you are worthy 🙏🏼
Just wanna say i hope your doing ok now. Misery and depression is not forever. So much will change through lifes' stages no matter how bad it seems at any moment. Be well ❤
Feel free to hit me if ever u r down in that darkness again. I've been there many times and can't say that at some point I wouldn't go back but I definitely know how it feels and what it feels like to feel completely alone
I belive there are fron drugged up people on the street forgetting their melodies to drugged up people on stages of the world ...while many lost the battle with whatever issues they had that they've fallen into behaviours like this I realized lately for me if you tried ever (il-)legally drug out there and are still capeable to make some sense the basment have been pretty intelligent.
lu et approuvé beaucoup énormément de. Ren sur cette planète wooow ce serait merveilleuse quel être formidable surdoué talentueux brilliant très très cultivé intellectuelle je l'aime tellement
REN is an absolute amazing guy, my daughter got me onto him. We have so much in common I’m HIV positive and went undiagnosed for almost 15years and now I’m really struggling and poorly because of autoimmune disease, Peripheral Neuropathy, Fibromyalgia, diabetes, and heart disease. So ren has been a lot of an inspiration. Really enjoyed this interview thank you guys
Oh my word. I knew he had bad health issues but to hear him describe what he went through breaks my heart. I hope Ren knows exactly how much we all love him, but also respect his inner strength. His situation would have finished many people, but he has created something amazing from it. Ren is a talented, humble, astonishing, handsome, eloquent young man.
REN...I AM LITERALLY JUST PULLED UP OUT OF ANOTHER BAD NIGHT! When I hear your voice without judgement (for myself) is right now the greatest thing giving me hope. Keep doing what is GOOD for you. Then we all benefit.
I suffer chronic pain every day and Ren is my voice. He is so correct when he said the patient sits in the middle (suffering) while the medical industry La La gags! I love his music and it’s healing, for me. Thank you Ren Gill!!!
I feel the same way. My chronic illness has stolen my ability to make music. I used to be completely obsessed with music. Loosing music along with all my other creative hobbies feels like being half dead. Seeing Ren share his music feels nearly as good as creating my own!
While it is not a miracle, nor a fix all, if you are suffering from chronic illnesses or pain, there are a great many chronic problems in our society that are attached to our food and eating patterns. I am 52 years old. I used to have horrific wheezing from asthmatic reactions after mowing half a yard. I had joint pain, would have to stop and catchy breath after running up 7 stairs, was prediabetic and had such bad, "allergies," that I missed work 3-4 times per year with lung inflammation that got so bad I would need steroids to reduce the swelling. Well, it turns out almost all of this is from a general inflammatory response from my body. A few things seem to combine to cause this: very high insulin resistance is probably the number one contributor. This is usually from eating too frequently (6 small meals per day is snacks is horrific advice) and eating too many carbohydrates, specifically sugar, which is hidden in almost all ultra processed food, but sugared drinks and juices are the worst. Straight to the liver with no protection (fiber and fat can slow down absorbtion). Another reason for inflammation in our bodies is leaky gut syndrome. The smooth muscles in our digestive system become, "loose fitting," allowing small particles to cross into our blood stream. The body recognizes it and attacks, as is its job. What happens when the body sends out it's soldiers? Inflammation. In short: 1. Ditch sugary drinks and juices. 2. Eat whole, real foods. If it is in a box, don't do it. 3. Reduce carbohydrates significantly. Fat is actually important and the low fat diet is dead wrong. No fat? No hormones telling you that you are full. No fat high carbs? Too much insulin production, cells start ignoring the insulin signals, pancreas creates more insulin to compensate, which is ignored further. Insulin is the, "store fat," hormone. And not just butt or belly fat, but fat storage around the liver and organs. That's what's deadly. 4. Fast. I know this terrifies people, but allowing your insulin level to drop for a long period of time is extremely healthy. It takes a few weeks, but your body can become fat adapted, which means it learns to easily switch to fat burning for energy once all of the glucose from your diet and stores in your muscles is consumed. Don't worry about, "not enough glucose," your body makes what it needs from burning the fat (gluconeogenesis). Start checking out Intermittent Fasting, a few 36 hours fast maybe a 3 day fast a few times per year. But DO eat your full calories for the day when you eat your, say, two meals. Maybe a few hundred cores less than normal is ok, but only eating 1000 calories in your eating days will damage your resting metabolism. Read: Dr Jason Fung - The Obesity Code for a fantastic beginner breakdown of all of this. Dr Robert Lustig - very deep discussion of the mechanisms if you like the super deep science. Well written though. Friendly. "Feed the gut, protect the liver." p.s. Ren speaks of microbiome and disbiosis. You can heal this as well after fasting for 36 hours or more. Start with some grass fed bine broth (grass fed because you need the billions of natural bacteria, fungi etc from a cow eating naturally), then an hour later eat fermented food like sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir or Greek yogurt (full fat plain). An hour later eat some greens, asparagus, other veggies as this is good for the new bacteria settling in your gut. Don't let our society take away the rest of your life and convince you that you are meant to suffer forever! All of those things I mentioned before? Gone. Sure, a few odd ball human things crop up. My elbow still has pain after a scooter accident, I got a real sickness for the first time in two years since starting this. But overall, I feel better than I have since my early 30s. During the summer I went out in 95 degree weather and chain sawed the overgrown hedges for 45 minutes, went in and drank some water, then took a mile run. Before just waking out to the car in 95 degree weather would have tortured me. But my metabolic system is healed and it has transformed getting older doesn't mean we are destined for all of these breakdowns. It's our food. It's the sugar. It's the ultra processed food full of too many cheap useless carbs (fiber removed, sugar added) and poor quality fat. Don't take my word for it, I'm just a dude telling my story. Do some research. If you want TH-cam videos, one guy does university level teaching about the basics of body biochemistry and all of this, Sten Eckberg.
@@Mhantraxjust a mention of thanks for your input. Would it be good for people to start with a 18 hour fasting and 6 hours (12pm -6pm) of eating to assimilate? Otherwise would love you to spread this as a possibility for others to explore as a option.
@@Zalentsiawe need him in the states. The medical system is so messed up. So much gaslighting and many people in the dark. The medical system is part brain washed and part working with the system
Wow! he is the most authentic and wonderful souls in the entertainment industry today. What an amazing guy. Hope he is known worldwide as we need such authentic, empathic souls
Ren has a special place in my heart❤ lovely Human. I thought i had seen him open up. But this is just heartbreaking. It's wonderful that he is doing so much better.
I don't have Lyme, but I've been on a very similar path medically for (ironically) 13 years. Ren's music made me aware that an antidepressant I had been on was slowly driving me crazy, on top of dealing with fibromyalgia and kidney disease. Every lyric, every word Ren speaks, I understand on a very personal and deep level. I stopped the medication, which has literally given me back the ability to pray. For so long I was sick, lost, and had given up. I have a long road ahead, but I have hope for the journey, which is really all you need. Ren saves lives. He helped save mine. 💜💜💜
For me it is was also 13 years also.. 13 years BEFORE I finally demanded a tick born disease panel and was positive for Lyme. Late stage. I'm not sure how I was never diagnosed with anything prior as most people in my position r wrongly diagnosed w MS, fibromyalgia.. and many other diseases that the medical system denies knowing the cause of.. yet they find Lyme bacteria in the brains of people who lived their entire lives with a diagnosis such as MS. This is an even worse prison since the search is now over and only symptoms of this disease, which is merely a blanket term for the symptoms that occur, are now treated with no hope of recovery. Meanwhile the bacteria of Lyme continue to grow in deeper levels of the body, organs and brain .. making it harder to reach by medkcines, natural or prescription. This is why systemic treatments like hyperbaric oxygen, ozone therapy, rife machines, and IV treatments can, sometimes, be helpful as they go deeper I'm not sure why I responded to you. The 13 years seems to be a reoccurring number and it caught my eye Much love to another Ren Fan ❤
How real and genuine is Ren Such a wise and wide awake knowledgeable guy. He's seriously raised the goal posts in the music world and taken it to another level ❤️
Dear REN, I’ve lived with autoimmunity for 20years and in intense pain daily and just diagnosed with early onset dementia . I’ve never been able to eloquently describe what I go through daily and now broken sleep . I’m not ashamed to admit I’ve attempted S . Twice . But I asked my husband to listen to this interview . He cried,and he now understands how intense pain in my caused PTSD psychosis Thank you much love from us❤
I HEAR YOU! No one understands unless you’re going through it. Ren explains it better than ANYONE in my life! I’ve had tons of Drs. Hospital stays. Surgery that were supposed to be 2 day stay. I was in a Full On Coma, SO everyone thought. I FELT PAIN on a UN Human way for 10 DAYS! !! I saw my family coming to door & the nurse wouldn’t let anyone in to see me. I heard every nurse that sat w/ me. Some read to me. I couldn’t move. Total paralyzed! But the pain was like some took a HOT fire Iron and kept stabbing me! I was begging to DIE! But, I couldn’t speak. 10 days in, an angel, or guardian , came to me. She told me I was going to have the pain go away. I literally woke that day. I need more surgeries. But, I’m petrified to even risk it. Btw… I woke up during the surgery. I told the surgeon what they were saying. He did feel awful. Said I had his entire team in tears. That they would never forget the experience I went through. I know that UNBELIEVABLE PAIN Ren is speaking of. I wouldn’t wish it on one soul. Nothing Helps it. None thought I could have been bit by a tick. “ Didn’t fit the mold” I also contracted RMSF. Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. W/ Lyme Disease. Told by my doctors, I had to have a full hysterectomy on top of it! 27 yrs old. Now, I don’t trust anyone. My psychiatrist helps to keep my daily pain at bay. I do have decent days. Past week was great. The 2 months before, barely could get out of bed. It’s so much to explain. I hope you have pain relief. Don’t push everyone away like, I’m doing. This is for ANYONE reading this. I’ve never commented on a post about this. I wish everyone well. Wish we lived in a society without greed! Help those who are suffering. Medical Drs. Getting their hands tied by Big Pharma. Keep questioning your Drs. Don’t believe them all, either. For now…I wish everyone Better Health. Thank You REN! I’ve never heard ANYONE put it in words like you have. Your music is on spot. Please stay w/ us. Forever REN! 🎶🎼🎵💞 I’m a sic girl, bit by a tick girl.
I was introduced to your music 2 days ago. I am probably not your typical fan. I'm 60 years old, and now I'm fixated on watching your vids, interviews, bio etc. You are a truly remarkable man. Thank you for holding on and sharing your story and inspiring people.
I had thought I wasn’t a typical either. I am 59. After reading so many of the comments of this interview, I have realized how wide of an audience he has. I’m not at all surprised. He is incredible!
I love Ren. I spent 10yrs of my life with medical staff telling me it was in my head when it wasn't. The medical trauma is so real. The only thing that helped me get through it was using the experience to help others and believing this is a soul contract I chose. It's a daily battle, and Im so grateful for Ren's music. Thank you for all that you give to the world!
Every Time i See Ren interviewed i Just want to give him a Big Hug, Ren always talks sense and after all he's been through he deserves some peace and happiness
Ren, my husband has had viral-onset chronic fatigue syndrome since 2020 (maybe COVID maybe not we don’t know because it was before the tests were even available). He was bedridden for 2 years and the last year he was finally regaining some independence. Then a month ago, not long after his 30th birthday, we found out he has cancer (unrelated to the chronic fatigue). Now he’s going through chemotherapy on top of trying to manage his chronic fatigue. Your music is a comfort to me as a caretaker and I’m so grateful to you for sharing the story of the chronically ill. We are such a hidden community and you are shining a beautiful bright light on us for the better. Thank you 🙏🏻
Do pursue a long COVID diagnosis. People with long COVID frequently also have ME, POTS and MCAS diagnoses. It helps to find a support community where people are not only able to relate to what you're suffering from but also share anything they find that helps.
Ahh that’s my Dad!! As per he’s had me laughing and crying along with him throughout this interview! Iv never felt so proud of a virtual stranger in my life. He really is a beautiful, old soul and I can’t wait to see what the future holds! Also I had never seen Zach before but you seem awesome too! Will have to check more out! 🖤
Ren is really blowing up and I am so happy for him. After everything he's been through I can't think of anyone in the music industry who's more deserving of this moment. ❤ Sick Boi in album of the year imo. Congratulations Ren and your team. ❤
This is so heartbreaking as a mum I just want to hug and protect Ren, I love his music so much and didn't think I could admire him more than I already do but what an amazing man and artist ❤
Absolutely obsessed with this genius of a human. I heard one ONE of his songs for the first time about a week ago and cannot stop listening to his geniality, wordsmith of the musician that lead to the creation of his music. That's lead to me wanting to learn about his story and the guy is an inspiration and at a much needed time for me. The fact that not only is his music amazing he's got some brains behind all that. What a guy 💞
Wow, Rens mental state reminds me of my son with autism. The parallel lining up of objects, the tics in speech..jumping out of a moving car, stripping off the clothes…the brain and gut inflammation . I have been working on it for twenty 27 years and I will never give up making his life the best possible. We love unconditionally and I will never give up.And I agree with Ren, the medical machine sucks. Just like Rens story waiting for months for a Dr. Appointment only to have it fail. Then waiting for months for the next appointment. ❤❤❤I’m so happy he’s made it to the other side ❤❤❤
YES LITERALLY, i wanted to literally say ren could be autistic but i didnt want to be offensive to anyone, but i self diagnosed myself, and are chasing official diagnosis, and ive researched it heavily, ren is a next level artist to me, he speaks to the unmasked me, and i kept having a feeling he could be autistic due to his obsession with vocal cues, vocal tones, ticks, hums, theyre all similar to stims i would do growing up, and have recently started doing more due to his music, all his music screams nastalgia of my childhood, unless everyone feels this way and not just ASD people.
@@Sncex it’s very similar to a savant. The very first time I saw Ren in a interview a couple years ago I saw it right away ( the ADHD) but I just kept my mouth shut but Ren is a remarkable man and openly discusses his ADD/ADHD. Which is just fabulous for this community. My son is very unique and gifted abilities too. When he was 5 he memorized every capital city in the United States and then moved onto different countries. Not because I taught him but because I put a world poster in his room as a toddler and he spent hours just looking at it. His math and reading skills too. The brain is an amazing thing.
Fantastic interview, Ren always so open and vulnerable. As a momma I just want to hug him hug his mum. My sister deals with Lyme disease Hoshimotos. The amount of social and medical pushback she’s been experiencing for years it’s unfair how so many suffer. Ren is so talented thankfully he’s been able to channel all his experiences and share with all of us educating and enlightening us. Thank you Ren for living so courageously and pushing forward. We are huge fans here and look so forward to seeing what’s next. ❤
I am terribly sorry that your sister is facing this difficult diagnosis. I hope she can find the type of healthcare the REN has had such great results from. Keep hope alive!❤
please get the Medical Medium, Secrets behind Chronic illness and how to Heal. You do not have to suffer. This info is healing millions of people and giving us back our health
There is a lot of common ground in Ren's story and my own. His music was solace for me, and seeing him absolutely smashing it is f***ing beautiful. What an amazing human.
When I first heard the Seven Sins song it had me in tears after the first verse. Now I know why. I went through something very similar. About 13 years ago I went to my doctor because I was in a lot of pain. He ran tests, referred me to someone else, who referred me to someone else, & so on. It kind of felt like playing the telephone game. One doctor told me it was all in my head, just post partum. Another accused me of being an addict. So I stopped going. About 4 months later I had a mass in my neck that looked like I had a golf ball right under my skin. But the last few doctors I'd seen had been so terrible, I refused to go in. It wasn't until I woke up in the middle of the night thinking I was having a heart attack. I lucked out with the doctor in the ER that night. When he ruled out heart attack he didn't just send me home. I ended up having cancer, & it had gone untreated for so long & grown so much, he told me I only had 3 to 5 years left to live. I'm very lucky that I am blessed enough to have been able to watch my kids grow up. So anyone who is suffering like that, or the way Ren did, PLEASE advocate for yourself. Doctors are not always right.
Thank you, I am fighting the fight for a diagnosis currently and needed a reminder. 🙏 They keep saying they want to run some tests but then they don't order them. I'm not used to having to fight with doctors. ❤
What an incredible deep dive into a real artists mind, the way he is able to explain his own creative process, what an artist. As our sea levels rise Ren will make waves all over the world. Go Ren
My heart hurts for Ren having to go through all that and for anyone else going through chronic pain like this. Sending lots of love. This was a great interview.
This is probably the most interesting and wise lad I've ever listened to. I've gone down a rabbit hole with REN, listened to The Big Push sing a few original songs and also a few covers and then listened to Ren do his thing. I've got to say I don't feel too old (I'm 58) to be listening to him, he transcends old and young and I totally understand his music. Thank you Ren, you're a superstar! And I'm so happy you're health is on a positive.
Omg amazing Ren is in his 30ies but he is speaking to all ages I think this terrible illness made this incredible artist incredible he will be talked about years to come massive love to you all ❤
It is so refreshing to see an artist like that, who is real, who is honest, who just is himself. Loads of respect and admiration for this artist and his music. He is a magician with words, and I believe he his more intelligent than he is aware of himself.
Ren is the same age as my son who has secondary progressive MS, he introduced me to Ren last year we cried together watching Hi Ren, my son has never cried or felt sorry for himself, Ren made us talk more about his feelings. I'm a fully fledged Renegade now, we both love him so much and listening to this incredible interview just makes me love him more.
Ren is incredible … ( ps you might want to look up research on clemastine and ms I kinda accidentally found out since I have it for allergies and when I got it year around I looked up if it was ok with the rest of my meds and figured out that probably why I had had periods of being better my dosage has been 2 tablets of 1 mg x 3 times a day take it or leave it but wanted to let you know. Some people take it 5 mg before sleep personally I’m as/adhd so don’t really get sleepy at all )
I had no idea Ren was suffering so much as a fairly new listener. This gives a whole new meaning to all of his music for me. My daughter suffers from Lyme disease and he's given us new hope that there are remedies and things we can do for her. Love this! Congratulations Ren can't wait to see what comes next for you ❤️🥰
Sorry to hear about your daughter, I live 15 miles from Lyme Ct where it all started. My brother and mother both contracted it and countless friends,it seems to affect people differently. Good luck I wish you the best
@jennybfoxxy have you been able to find any treatments that have helped your daughters Lyme. I am newly diagnosed and struggling to find treatments that actually work. Any info is greatly appreciated 🙏
@@laurievandusen6178If you are newly infected with Borellia the Doxicyclin is the antbiotics that works best. But you should find a doctor who is experienced in treatment for dosis and lenght of taking it. If you are longer on the run its more difficult... then its important to Diagnose if your spinal chord and brain is infected too. Then other antibiotics would be the choice. And tons of detox....the roots of wild teasel are very helpful. Also hyperthermia treatments... Much luck and good healing for you! you!
I am so grateful for this absolute genius. He puts into words that most of us can't articulate. I wm speaking a an 62 year old woman with 9 auto immmunne conditions fir 20+ years. And even the medical professional really just play a guessing game. "Here are some new meds" And that intense disappointment when it does not work but makes things worse. Or drs just dont believe you. Thank you @Ren for giving us a voice. You an amazing man and artist. You are my new addiction. And it help that you are soft on the eye as well😂❤. From Cape Town , South Africa
I’ve seen a number of interviews with Ren and I think this is one of the best ones I’ve seen. Such a multifaceted artist and a genuinely great person. His art has certainly made 2023 a better one for me.
Ren has managed to articulate some of the recent revelations I've been through myself recently. Lessons I've been trying to hold onto for the times where I relapse into the dark. My struggle is nothing extraordinary, I'm not putting myself down by saying that. I'm proud to know that other people go through similar things and that we all share that sense of humanity and I'll forever be grateful to Ren for helping me to hold onto my lessons so I can move into my 30's with a new perspective and acceptance of myself. Diolch yn fawr Ren! Dwi o Llanberis, tua'r un oed a ti.
And then you go and describe my thoughts on politics too. Man I'd love a chat if you're in North Wales in the future. I'll take you for a walk in the mountains. Open invite.
REN never stops giving. Whether it’s a new song, fifth time to hear an old one, or a great interview, it always feels like a brand new experience with one of the most gifted souls around. Love Ren
I've been following Ren's journey for a while now, so I feel like he's my big bro at this point. It's cool because his achievements fill me with pride and excitement as if he were part of my family, but it also means he has me in tears at 20:17 ...
What a wonderful interview of a wonderful person. Chronic illness is a bastard. I’ve never heard “diss ease” and as someone with health issues it really resonated with me. He is incredible. A gift to us all.
Really enjoyed this interview mate. What amazes me with Ren's music is I'm 48 years old and I went and bought my first rap/hip hop album. He's just... As you say - he transcends genres. Money game trilogy, jenny and screech trilogy, the iconic Hi Ren, but also his singing collabs with Chinchilla and Eden Nash... He's a modern day Shakespeare set to a sick beat. Great interview. Thanks again.
He is such a wise and beautiful person. Ren deserves all success hes had and is going to have. Hes lived a thousand lives but remains humble and genuine. Great interview. ❤
I dont know what it is about Ren, but he gives me an intense sense of nostalgia and i see so much of myself in him. I too have ADHD and was sad and ill for the bigger part of my childhood and teens. I love how ADHD folk age in reverse. We're young at heart, charismatic, intelligent, intense and empathic. I'm nearly 37 and dont act or look remotely my age. I really relate to Ren on a deep level. He is a rare, beautiful and deeply refreshing human in a world so cold.
Same here! I’ve watched pretty much every interview Ren has done and this one was phenomenal! Really great questions that are different from what I’ve already heard him discuss.
Ren makes me cry. He's been through so much, more than any one person should have to endure. I'm so thankful he's finding some relief, along with success!
No one deserves success more than this brave young man. A true artist with a heart of gold. He has helped so many people, myself included, with his honesty and made a lot of people feel less alone ❤
He’s full of wisdom from all his experiences, and I love how he talks about both the good and the bad. It really shows they can go hand in hand. I shed a few tears during the interview. He’s such a talented person and really cares about those who are suffering. A truly lovely human being.
Amazing interview! And you finally got him to answer what the pig mask means to him which he's been asked repeatedly and wouldn't explain. He's so well spoken and smart, it's a treat to listen to him give his insights on everything. It helps that you had a really well thought out questions and follow ups to ask as well.
Because of this interview i learned about his song patience, if yall got time please listen to it specially if your having a hard time. Super comforting and inspiring. Literally saved me
That was an AmAzInG interview!! Thank you @ZachSangShow for this in-depth and insightful interview with my all-time favorite artist Ren. I loved that it was almost an hour long, letting the world hear more of Ren's story than ever before.
I just discovered Ren, and it has been wonderful! I have had a rare autoimmune disease for 30 years, and Ren's story is so familiar. Ren, thank you for your perseverance and willingness to be vulnerable and expressive about these issues. There is so much I could say about your astounding talent, but I want you to know your music has been a great comfort to me.
My heart is so full of love and admiration for all of you right now. This interview eas truly epic. You did great Zach at realky matching Ren's vulnerability when trying to frame your initial questions! You met each other emotionally at a perfect place of sharing that totally uplifted us all. Thank you so much! And Ren! My gosh, you have truly been progessing in your poise and clarity over this year. Probably both treatment and practice have nourished your content and style of communication . I'm so proud to be one of your Renegades. ❤
Ren speaks to me in a way I never expected. I have had my own journey through psychological hell. It took me decades to fight my way through, trying many different approaches. When I heard Sick Boi the first time, I just can't describe how it has helped me. Thank you Ren.
1 minute un and I learnt something that I FEEL I should have known or at the very least has been staring me in the face for the last 30 years. That RAP is an acronym for 'Rhythm/Rhyme and poetry'
What an absolutely wonderful interview. Cudos! Ren is so perfect at giving a voice to my soul and speaking things I hadn't even realized into existence. I currently battle 5 autoimmune disorders and if on the rare occasion I find myself not experiencing pain, brain fog, and extreme fatigue, I will be hyper-aware of my body, hear my own heart beat, how I'm breathing, worry, feel anxious and sometimes think I'm dying. I had never really thought of it being the fact that I am so used to feeling so bad that normal feels foreign to me. The understanding and acceptance I have in my life since I found Ren is a true gift.
oh my god, same, i think im autistic, adhd, and ren i would assume could be autistic and adhd, because HE SPEAKS TO ME, in a way no one ever has, most of what he speaks in this interview basically screams ASD traits... i think anyway.
When he described ADHD I teared up. You don’t have to be musically talented for music to heal the ailments. I can’t play anything or sing but I enjoy music immensely, especially Ren’s music, it calms my body but stimulates my brain. It gives me a reason to sit in peace and absorb. It sends my thoughts in every direction but keeps me calm. Amazing! Thank you!
He should be on all the big major shows. man the stuff you went through could help people all over the place. this is insane. Finally an actual grounded person and it's taking this long for him to blow up it's insane. He could literally help people. How about everybody just stop with all these other artists let's get him blowing up first
I know what you mean but I don’t think Ren should be on all the major shows . Then he would be exploited by them - the people who need to find him will find him through his music and thoughtful interviews like this .
I’m a 60 year old woman with a form of muscular dystrophy which I was diagnosed with at 18. Ren is a huge inspiration. I absolutely love every piece of music he has released!
Ren, we are so blessed to have you to speak up for the chronic illness community. Your music has changed my life & mindset for the better. Thanks, brother. 🤘🏼
I'm more and more convinced that Ren is a lightworker. They often chose a very difficult life to trigger awakening and now he is shining his light on us for our own healing journey. What a brave and beautiful soul 💚
He is light, there is no doubt about that. He speaks for us, those without a voice with his lyricism/music, he lifts everyone who finds him. Music is one of the best ways to connect. Music is the language of God (s). Peace and love to you sister❤️🌎🇦🇺
I have always thought of him as an empath and light worker from the first time I heard him. At 73 years old I bought his music as I had a real soul connection to him and love his genius as a musician . He is an all round artist who can make all kinds of music. His singing voice is brilliant , extraordinary and just amazing. He’s highly intelligent and I do believe he is a light being . Blessings and big intentions sent to him for ongoing fame that he so deserves.💜💜💜🌟🌟🌟🌟😊😊
I'm 7 0years old and I'll tell you right now this kid is possibly one of the most important entertainers walking the planet not just for his creativity and brilliance but also how many people he will be able to help psychologically and physically because everything he has been through
WoW there someone older than me who likes Ren 😂 56 if u wondering ✌️🇬🇧
💯 agree ❤ he's soooo wise, pure talent, musical and lyrical genuis. Says me the 50 year old woman who's also worked with and struggled with my own serious mental health issues, including Psychosis. Can totally relate , he's next level musician ,Artist, poet, lyrical genius and amazing Producer ❤❤❤xx
@@markthompson9914 oooih I'm the baby gal at only 50 😂❤❤❤ love Ren he's a genius, Pure talent in so many ways ❤❤❤
@@carlabruce3971
HA HA ❤️ one minute everyone was older than me, then I must have blinked and everyone was suddenly younger than me 🤣🤣 so it’s refreshing to see someone older than me for a change 😂
But u not wrong about the young lad Ren, he’s got a wise head on them shoulders and can put across emotions with his words at ease.
He’s got some lovely tunes but `suicide’ broke my heart and had me balling like a baby 😢 but I can’t only relate when he sings of the meds he was on 👍 not good for us 👍
✌️&❤️ lass, as that’s all we have ✌️&❤️👍
70 soon here. Ren transcends time, space, musical taste, age, intellect.
Chronically ill and mentally ill are yelling in pain from the bottom of a well. Thanks to Ren, he elevates the message somewhat. 😢
I hope Ren knows how incredibly happy we all are that he was able to claw his way out of the deep, deep cavern in which he found himself. His ability to share his journey has to be helpful for those millions who are still in their cave of pain or suffering. I hope Ren is eventually able to fully experience life with less focus on his health journey.. I wish him continued health improvement.. and peace of mind!
❤
Indeed ❤
I hope for all the darkness indured Ren gets to experience the opposite (the light) with the same or better intensity and uninterrupted longevity.
Absolutely 💯 ❤️
He knows - that’s why he does it.
I'm old enough to be Ren's Gran. I am blown away at the brilliance of this young man. I have struggled with Chronic Autoimmune illnesses and Chronic Pain injuries since I was 12 years of age. Like Ren I spent years being misdiagnosed and because of reaction to meds was sent into psychosis. Have struggled against the horrific medical community for years now. Bless you dear Ren for your brilliance in telling the stories of the desperate need for change in Western Medicine. And for your outstanding gift as a creative genius.
The surprise of the host - ppl still aren’t aware of the scale of medical gaslighting. Especially for female patients.
He has a level of intimacy in His material that brings a raw authenticity.
I feel ashamed listening to him that I can't even reach that level of intimacy in my own private relationships.
Shameful
Hi Ravenwild. Have you heard of the Medical Medium? He has amazing info about what is causing all these auto immune conditions. Millions of people are getting well from doing this plant based diet. I really would love to get in touch with Ren to share this info and something that could help him and so many others. I had Lymes and other chronic condition and I am healing so well now without any medication. Do you know how I could contact this wonderful young man?
Fad diets from 'gurus' are not the answer. Besides which, Ren is highly allergic to virtually all food. The only thing his body accepts, most of the time, are a couple of different types of organic meat and 3 or 4 different organic vegetables. Thus he has virtually the same plain meal, every single mealtime and nothing in between those meals. He's tried widening his diet on many occasions but it's never ended well. If he followed your guru's diet, he'd be dead not long after doing so.
Me as well, I'm truly glad I came across his music, I wish my son got to hear his music
This is by far the best interview I’ve watched with Ren. Intelligent conversation is fascinating to listen to and so thought provoking.
I Completely agree!!! I hope Everyone will see and share this interview!!!
💯 agree
Agree. Zach is a great interviewer.
Yes, this one had me crying, so much, as I am sure it did for so many others. I think the power of it was fueled by the focus that was on Ren the person, rather than primarily Ren and his music. Incredible interview, and yes pamquick600, this really does need to be shared and shared again. There is something extraordinary here that needs to be heard.
This is the interview you get when someone has taken the time to think about which questions to ask, rather than just winging it.
Ren now has the Number one uk album since this interview. If ever there was a young man more grounded and intelligent to cope with success it’s him. We from his home town, Brighton, are so pleased for him, what an international phenomenon. Well done buddy. ❤️
❤
Brighton shines. I’m in US. 55:46
What a wise soul. Wisdom just flows out of him, seemingly effortlessly, which is a true sign of the fact that he's surmounted many hard struggles. And I am ever grateful that he's so open to sharing about his highs and lows.
Very inspiring. Glad I found you Ren!
Yes. Ren is so intelligent and self aware. I also appreciated the interviewer's questions and reactions.
Ren for President! Such a balanced viewpoint. Just love seeing how the universe has moulded this guy. ❤
@@whozitwhatzit4802 This the best interview of Ren so far. The interplay between host and guest was outstanding.
Wow your so spot on he really is amaxing very wise& talented Well done and what an inspiration absolutley wonderful stuff Ren 🎼🎵☮️💜🙏
I just need all of Rens fans to know that you all are the largest part of why I havent tried killing myself again... Thank you all for giving me the hope I've always looked for in humanity. 💓
You are loved, please keep going. Praying for you
Please don’t. I wasted so many years being in that mindset, almost two decades and until I really took charge of myself.. I never knew how beautiful life could be. No one is coming to save you, you absolutely have to save yourself. You are worthy of the fight and life CAN and WILL be enjoyed by you. You just have to fight to get it 🫶🏼 I believe in you and everyone else that is struggling ❤ You are loved and you are worthy 🙏🏼
Just wanna say i hope your doing ok now. Misery and depression is not forever. So much will change through lifes' stages no matter how bad it seems at any moment. Be well ❤
Im with u i need thia community
Feel free to hit me if ever u r down in that darkness again. I've been there many times and can't say that at some point I wouldn't go back but I definitely know how it feels and what it feels like to feel completely alone
What a well rounded, intelligent, gifted artist. If there was more people like Ren this world would be a better place.
Protect him at all costs. ❤
I belive there are fron drugged up people on the street forgetting their melodies to drugged up people on stages of the world ...while many lost the battle with whatever issues they had that they've fallen into behaviours like this I realized lately for me if you tried ever (il-)legally drug out there and are still capeable to make some sense the basment have been pretty intelligent.
lu et approuvé beaucoup énormément de. Ren sur cette planète wooow ce serait merveilleuse quel être formidable surdoué talentueux brilliant très très cultivé intellectuelle je l'aime tellement
❤❤❤
REN is an absolute amazing guy, my daughter got me onto him. We have so much in common I’m HIV positive and went undiagnosed for almost 15years and now I’m really struggling and poorly because of autoimmune disease, Peripheral Neuropathy, Fibromyalgia, diabetes, and heart disease. So ren has been a lot of an inspiration. Really enjoyed this interview thank you guys
Prayers are with you relieve your pain and continue to be the great person you are 🙏🏻
He weeps for those who suffer and die. This is why his fans absolutely love him.
Oh my word. I knew he had bad health issues but to hear him describe what he went through breaks my heart. I hope Ren knows exactly how much we all love him, but also respect his inner strength. His situation would have finished many people, but he has created something amazing from it.
Ren is a talented, humble, astonishing, handsome, eloquent young man.
REN...I AM LITERALLY JUST PULLED UP OUT OF ANOTHER BAD NIGHT! When I hear your voice without judgement (for myself) is right now the greatest thing giving me hope. Keep doing what is GOOD for you. Then we all benefit.
Ren is a f*ing genius.
I hope people go back to this vid or any other interview of Ren and realize how much he's one of the best of this generation.
he's truly amazing
Ren is such a genuine and special human. He holds such a place in my heart.
I cannot get enough of this intelligent, well spoken, mature, gifted, handsome man. Props to the interviewer as well.
I suffer chronic pain every day and Ren is my voice. He is so correct when he said the patient sits in the middle (suffering) while the medical industry La La gags! I love his music and it’s healing, for me. Thank you Ren Gill!!!
I feel the same way. My chronic illness has stolen my ability to make music. I used to be completely obsessed with music. Loosing music along with all my other creative hobbies feels like being half dead. Seeing Ren share his music feels nearly as good as creating my own!
While it is not a miracle, nor a fix all, if you are suffering from chronic illnesses or pain, there are a great many chronic problems in our society that are attached to our food and eating patterns.
I am 52 years old. I used to have horrific wheezing from asthmatic reactions after mowing half a yard. I had joint pain, would have to stop and catchy breath after running up 7 stairs, was prediabetic and had such bad, "allergies," that I missed work 3-4 times per year with lung inflammation that got so bad I would need steroids to reduce the swelling.
Well, it turns out almost all of this is from a general inflammatory response from my body. A few things seem to combine to cause this: very high insulin resistance is probably the number one contributor. This is usually from eating too frequently (6 small meals per day is snacks is horrific advice) and eating too many carbohydrates, specifically sugar, which is hidden in almost all ultra processed food, but sugared drinks and juices are the worst. Straight to the liver with no protection (fiber and fat can slow down absorbtion).
Another reason for inflammation in our bodies is leaky gut syndrome. The smooth muscles in our digestive system become, "loose fitting," allowing small particles to cross into our blood stream. The body recognizes it and attacks, as is its job. What happens when the body sends out it's soldiers? Inflammation.
In short:
1. Ditch sugary drinks and juices.
2. Eat whole, real foods. If it is in a box, don't do it.
3. Reduce carbohydrates significantly. Fat is actually important and the low fat diet is dead wrong. No fat? No hormones telling you that you are full. No fat high carbs? Too much insulin production, cells start ignoring the insulin signals, pancreas creates more insulin to compensate, which is ignored further. Insulin is the, "store fat," hormone. And not just butt or belly fat, but fat storage around the liver and organs. That's what's deadly.
4. Fast. I know this terrifies people, but allowing your insulin level to drop for a long period of time is extremely healthy. It takes a few weeks, but your body can become fat adapted, which means it learns to easily switch to fat burning for energy once all of the glucose from your diet and stores in your muscles is consumed. Don't worry about, "not enough glucose," your body makes what it needs from burning the fat (gluconeogenesis). Start checking out Intermittent Fasting, a few 36 hours fast maybe a 3 day fast a few times per year. But DO eat your full calories for the day when you eat your, say, two meals. Maybe a few hundred cores less than normal is ok, but only eating 1000 calories in your eating days will damage your resting metabolism.
Read:
Dr Jason Fung - The Obesity Code for a fantastic beginner breakdown of all of this.
Dr Robert Lustig - very deep discussion of the mechanisms if you like the super deep science. Well written though. Friendly. "Feed the gut, protect the liver."
p.s. Ren speaks of microbiome and disbiosis. You can heal this as well after fasting for 36 hours or more. Start with some grass fed bine broth (grass fed because you need the billions of natural bacteria, fungi etc from a cow eating naturally), then an hour later eat fermented food like sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir or Greek yogurt (full fat plain). An hour later eat some greens, asparagus, other veggies as this is good for the new bacteria settling in your gut.
Don't let our society take away the rest of your life and convince you that you are meant to suffer forever!
All of those things I mentioned before? Gone. Sure, a few odd ball human things crop up. My elbow still has pain after a scooter accident, I got a real sickness for the first time in two years since starting this. But overall, I feel better than I have since my early 30s. During the summer I went out in 95 degree weather and chain sawed the overgrown hedges for 45 minutes, went in and drank some water, then took a mile run. Before just waking out to the car in 95 degree weather would have tortured me. But my metabolic system is healed and it has transformed getting older doesn't mean we are destined for all of these breakdowns. It's our food. It's the sugar. It's the ultra processed food full of too many cheap useless carbs (fiber removed, sugar added) and poor quality fat. Don't take my word for it, I'm just a dude telling my story. Do some research. If you want TH-cam videos, one guy does university level teaching about the basics of body biochemistry and all of this, Sten Eckberg.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@Mhantraxjust a mention of thanks for your input. Would it be good for people to start with a 18 hour fasting and 6 hours (12pm -6pm) of eating to assimilate? Otherwise would love you to spread this as a possibility for others to explore as a option.
chronic illness - Gallbladder cleanse, fixes EVREYTHING
This boy needs protecting at all costs. He's very precious. ❤❤ I cried too many times during this video. Ren hits you right in the heart.
I'm glad he's come out in Canada, I saw it in the first week he was there!!!
He needs serious help with his media!!!
@@Zalentsiawe need him in the states. The medical system is so messed up. So much gaslighting and many people in the dark. The medical system is part brain washed and part working with the system
This hit my HEART ! In a positive way 😊
Wow! he is the most authentic and wonderful souls in the entertainment industry today. What an amazing guy. Hope he is known worldwide as we need such authentic, empathic souls
Rare to have a person who can articulate so well their thoughts on the fly so eloquently.
Russell Brand can as well.... and they sound so proper with that English accent. 😊
Ren has a special place in my heart❤ lovely Human. I thought i had seen him open up. But this is just heartbreaking. It's wonderful that he is doing so much better.
I don't have Lyme, but I've been on a very similar path medically for (ironically) 13 years. Ren's music made me aware that an antidepressant I had been on was slowly driving me crazy, on top of dealing with fibromyalgia and kidney disease. Every lyric, every word Ren speaks, I understand on a very personal and deep level. I stopped the medication, which has literally given me back the ability to pray. For so long I was sick, lost, and had given up. I have a long road ahead, but I have hope for the journey, which is really all you need. Ren saves lives. He helped save mine. 💜💜💜
For me it is was also 13 years also.. 13 years BEFORE I finally demanded a tick born disease panel and was positive for Lyme. Late stage. I'm not sure how I was never diagnosed with anything prior as most people in my position r wrongly diagnosed w MS, fibromyalgia.. and many other diseases that the medical system denies knowing the cause of.. yet they find Lyme bacteria in the brains of people who lived their entire lives with a diagnosis such as MS. This is an even worse prison since the search is now over and only symptoms of this disease, which is merely a blanket term for the symptoms that occur, are now treated with no hope of recovery. Meanwhile the bacteria of Lyme continue to grow in deeper levels of the body, organs and brain .. making it harder to reach by medkcines, natural or prescription. This is why systemic treatments like hyperbaric oxygen, ozone therapy, rife machines, and IV treatments can, sometimes, be helpful as they go deeper
I'm not sure why I responded to you. The 13 years seems to be a reoccurring number and it caught my eye
Much love to another Ren Fan ❤
How real and genuine is Ren
Such a wise and wide awake knowledgeable guy.
He's seriously raised the goal posts in the music world and taken it to another level ❤️
I adore Ren. I haven’t felt this passionate about a musician in a long long time.
Thank you, Ren. Thank you Zach for having him on the show
Dear REN, I’ve lived with autoimmunity for 20years and in intense pain daily and just diagnosed with early onset dementia . I’ve never been able to eloquently describe what I go through daily and now broken sleep .
I’m not ashamed to admit I’ve attempted S . Twice .
But I asked my husband to listen to this interview . He cried,and he now understands how intense pain in my caused PTSD psychosis Thank you much love from us❤
I HEAR YOU! No one understands unless you’re going through it. Ren explains it better than ANYONE in my life! I’ve had tons of Drs. Hospital stays. Surgery that were supposed to be 2 day stay. I was in a Full On Coma, SO everyone thought. I FELT PAIN on a UN Human way for 10 DAYS! !! I saw my family coming to door & the nurse wouldn’t let anyone in to see me. I heard every nurse that sat w/ me. Some read to me. I couldn’t move. Total paralyzed! But the pain was like some took a HOT fire Iron and kept stabbing me!
I was begging to DIE! But, I couldn’t speak. 10 days in, an angel, or guardian , came to me. She told me I was going to have the pain go away. I literally woke that day.
I need more surgeries. But, I’m petrified to even risk it. Btw… I woke up during the surgery.
I told the surgeon what they were saying. He did feel awful. Said I had his entire team in tears. That they would never forget the experience I went through. I know that UNBELIEVABLE PAIN Ren is speaking of. I wouldn’t wish it on one soul. Nothing Helps it.
None thought I could have been bit by a tick. “ Didn’t fit the mold” I also contracted RMSF. Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. W/ Lyme Disease.
Told by my doctors, I had to have a full hysterectomy on top of it! 27 yrs old. Now, I don’t trust anyone. My psychiatrist helps to keep my daily pain at bay. I do have decent days. Past week was great. The 2 months before, barely could get out of bed. It’s so much to explain.
I hope you have pain relief. Don’t push everyone away like, I’m doing. This is for ANYONE reading this. I’ve never commented on a post about this. I wish everyone well. Wish we lived in a society without greed! Help those who are suffering. Medical Drs. Getting their hands tied by Big Pharma.
Keep questioning your Drs. Don’t believe them all, either.
For now…I wish everyone Better Health.
Thank You REN! I’ve never heard ANYONE put it in words like you have. Your music is on spot. Please stay w/ us. Forever REN! 🎶🎼🎵💞
I’m a sic girl, bit by a tick girl.
@@paxtonparis2746paxtonp... I wonder how you're doing today. I love you.
Homeopathic.
Trust your instincts.
It’s been so long since I’ve heard a articulate emotionally honest conversation. Thanks guys and Thanks to Ren especially for the art
I was introduced to your music 2 days ago. I am probably not your typical fan. I'm 60 years old, and now I'm fixated on watching your vids, interviews, bio etc. You are a truly remarkable man. Thank you for holding on and sharing your story and inspiring people.
I had thought I wasn’t a typical either. I am 59. After reading so many of the comments of this interview, I have realized how wide of an audience he has. I’m not at all surprised. He is incredible!
I'm so thankful for Ren. Thank you for bringing him onto your platform and letting him say what he needed to.
I love Ren. I spent 10yrs of my life with medical staff telling me it was in my head when it wasn't. The medical trauma is so real. The only thing that helped me get through it was using the experience to help others and believing this is a soul contract I chose. It's a daily battle, and Im so grateful for Ren's music. Thank you for all that you give to the world!
Every Time i See Ren interviewed i Just want to give him a Big Hug, Ren always talks sense and after all he's been through he deserves some peace and happiness
Ren, my husband has had viral-onset chronic fatigue syndrome since 2020 (maybe COVID maybe not we don’t know because it was before the tests were even available). He was bedridden for 2 years and the last year he was finally regaining some independence. Then a month ago, not long after his 30th birthday, we found out he has cancer (unrelated to the chronic fatigue). Now he’s going through chemotherapy on top of trying to manage his chronic fatigue. Your music is a comfort to me as a caretaker and I’m so grateful to you for sharing the story of the chronically ill. We are such a hidden community and you are shining a beautiful bright light on us for the better. Thank you 🙏🏻
Do pursue a long COVID diagnosis. People with long COVID frequently also have ME, POTS and MCAS diagnoses. It helps to find a support community where people are not only able to relate to what you're suffering from but also share anything they find that helps.
Ahh that’s my Dad!! As per he’s had me laughing and crying along with him throughout this interview! Iv never felt so proud of a virtual stranger in my life. He really is a beautiful, old soul and I can’t wait to see what the future holds! Also I had never seen Zach before but you seem awesome too! Will have to check more out! 🖤
I really hopes this contributes to some more USA exposure for Ren, and helps push him up the USA charts too
Ren is really blowing up and I am so happy for him. After everything he's been through I can't think of anyone in the music industry who's more deserving of this moment. ❤
Sick Boi in album of the year imo. Congratulations Ren and your team. ❤
people have either never heard of Ren, or absolutely love him
This is so heartbreaking as a mum I just want to hug and protect Ren, I love his music so much and didn't think I could admire him more than I already do but what an amazing man and artist ❤
God, I could just listen to him talk all day long about anything. He's so captivating & his voice is really soothing, too.
I am so happy for Ren. What an amazing talent and human being . He deserves all the good luck in the world
Absolutely obsessed with this genius of a human. I heard one ONE of his songs for the first time about a week ago and cannot stop listening to his geniality, wordsmith of the musician that lead to the creation of his music.
That's lead to me wanting to learn about his story and the guy is an inspiration and at a much needed time for me. The fact that not only is his music amazing he's got some brains behind all that.
What a guy 💞
Me too.
Wow, Rens mental state reminds me of my son with autism. The parallel lining up of objects, the tics in speech..jumping out of a moving car, stripping off the clothes…the brain and gut inflammation . I have been working on it for twenty 27 years and I will never give up making his life the best possible. We love unconditionally and I will never give up.And I agree with Ren, the medical machine sucks. Just like Rens story waiting for months for a Dr. Appointment only to have it fail. Then waiting for months for the next appointment. ❤❤❤I’m so happy he’s made it to the other side ❤❤❤
I love this. I’m autistic / ADHD and suffer from similar medical conditions as Ren… thanks for your words :)
snap
YES LITERALLY, i wanted to literally say ren could be autistic but i didnt want to be offensive to anyone, but i self diagnosed myself, and are chasing official diagnosis, and ive researched it heavily, ren is a next level artist to me, he speaks to the unmasked me, and i kept having a feeling he could be autistic due to his obsession with vocal cues, vocal tones, ticks, hums, theyre all similar to stims i would do growing up, and have recently started doing more due to his music, all his music screams nastalgia of my childhood, unless everyone feels this way and not just ASD people.
@@Sncex it’s very similar to a savant. The very first time I saw Ren in a interview a couple years ago I saw it right away ( the ADHD) but I just kept my mouth shut but Ren is a remarkable man and openly discusses his ADD/ADHD. Which is just fabulous for this community. My son is very unique and gifted abilities too. When he was 5 he memorized every capital city in the United States and then moved onto different countries. Not because I taught him but because I put a world poster in his room as a toddler and he spent hours just looking at it. His math and reading skills too. The brain is an amazing thing.
@@brittcasame ❤
i love how ren seemed anxious in the beginning then the conversation kept flowing and he started to speak comfortably
Fantastic interview, Ren always so open and vulnerable. As a momma I just want to hug him hug his mum. My sister deals with Lyme disease Hoshimotos. The amount of social and medical pushback she’s been experiencing for years it’s unfair how so many suffer. Ren is so talented thankfully he’s been able to channel all his experiences and share with all of us educating and enlightening us. Thank you Ren for living so courageously and pushing forward. We are huge fans here and look so forward to seeing what’s next. ❤
I have Hashimotos as well - how is your sis doing?
So sorry to hear about your sister's illness
I am terribly sorry that your sister is facing this difficult diagnosis. I hope she can find the type of healthcare the REN has had such great results from. Keep hope alive!❤
🌹♥️🙏
please get the Medical Medium, Secrets behind Chronic illness and how to Heal. You do not have to suffer. This info is healing millions of people and giving us back our health
There is a lot of common ground in Ren's story and my own. His music was solace for me, and seeing him absolutely smashing it is f***ing beautiful. What an amazing human.
When I first heard the Seven Sins song it had me in tears after the first verse. Now I know why. I went through something very similar. About 13 years ago I went to my doctor because I was in a lot of pain. He ran tests, referred me to someone else, who referred me to someone else, & so on. It kind of felt like playing the telephone game. One doctor told me it was all in my head, just post partum. Another accused me of being an addict. So I stopped going. About 4 months later I had a mass in my neck that looked like I had a golf ball right under my skin. But the last few doctors I'd seen had been so terrible, I refused to go in. It wasn't until I woke up in the middle of the night thinking I was having a heart attack. I lucked out with the doctor in the ER that night. When he ruled out heart attack he didn't just send me home. I ended up having cancer, & it had gone untreated for so long & grown so much, he told me I only had 3 to 5 years left to live. I'm very lucky that I am blessed enough to have been able to watch my kids grow up. So anyone who is suffering like that, or the way Ren did, PLEASE advocate for yourself. Doctors are not always right.
❤❤❤🙏❤❤❤
Thank you, I am fighting the fight for a diagnosis currently and needed a reminder. 🙏 They keep saying they want to run some tests but then they don't order them. I'm not used to having to fight with doctors. ❤
What an incredible deep dive into a real artists mind, the way he is able to explain his own creative process, what an artist. As our sea levels rise Ren will make waves all over the world. Go Ren
❤❤❤❤
It's just so amazing listening to him talk, Ren is just unbelievably wise and... I'm speechless man, Ren said it all.
Everytime I think I can't love Ren anymore he does something like this ❤❤❤
I’m old enough to be REN’s mum, and when he gave praise to Bill Hicks I just burst into tears! Thanks love.
My heart hurts for Ren having to go through all that and for anyone else going through chronic pain like this. Sending lots of love. This was a great interview.
Ren gives a profound masterclass in humanity
I am in awe and feel so alive
Ren has such a beautiful understanding of this world, truly a pleasure to have discovered his art and follow his journey. He's SICK
This is probably the most interesting and wise lad I've ever listened to. I've gone down a rabbit hole with REN, listened to The Big Push sing a few original songs and also a few covers and then listened to Ren do his thing. I've got to say I don't feel too old (I'm 58) to be listening to him, he transcends old and young and I totally understand his music. Thank you Ren, you're a superstar! And I'm so happy you're health is on a positive.
Great, now he's making me cry during interviews as well.
Aye, join the club my friend. There are probably thousands of us worldwide who shed a tear or two at many of Ren's songs and wise words.
I found his amazing music recently. I had no idea he was an equally amazing human being as well. I love how open he is.
Omg amazing Ren is in his 30ies but he is speaking to all ages I think this terrible illness made this incredible artist incredible he will be talked about years to come massive love to you all ❤
Back atcha❤️
It is so refreshing to see an artist like that, who is real, who is honest, who just is himself. Loads of respect and admiration for this artist and his music. He is a magician with words, and I believe he his more intelligent than he is aware of himself.
Ren….such a beautiful soul, so open and honest. Wonderful human
Ren is the same age as my son who has secondary progressive MS, he introduced me to Ren last year we cried together watching Hi Ren, my son has never cried or felt sorry for himself, Ren made us talk more about his feelings. I'm a fully fledged Renegade now, we both love him so much and listening to this incredible interview just makes me love him more.
Ren is incredible … ( ps you might want to look up research on clemastine and ms I kinda accidentally found out since I have it for allergies and when I got it year around I looked up if it was ok with the rest of my meds and figured out that probably why I had had periods of being better my dosage has been 2 tablets of 1 mg x 3 times a day take it or leave it but wanted to let you know. Some people take it 5 mg before sleep personally I’m as/adhd so don’t really get sleepy at all )
This just broke my heart into a flood of tears. With you Ren Gill, all the way Brother.
I've been alive for 31 years and I just now am finding out, from ren, that RAP stands for rhyme and poetry 😂😮
Wow! I’m just learning that from your comment. lol
According to Google it's a backronism, so be cautious who you tell
Wow I’m 40 and I just learned this today! 😂🙌🏻
Im 51yrs and i thought the exact same!!?? 🙈😂😂
I’m 37 and I just found out too! 😂😂😂 wow thanks Ren
Ren is so special. I have to thank him endlessly for putting words to my agony. ❤
I had no idea Ren was suffering so much as a fairly new listener. This gives a whole new meaning to all of his music for me. My daughter suffers from Lyme disease and he's given us new hope that there are remedies and things we can do for her. Love this! Congratulations Ren can't wait to see what comes next for you ❤️🥰
Sorry to hear about your daughter, I live 15 miles from Lyme Ct where it all started. My brother and mother both contracted it and countless friends,it seems to affect people differently. Good luck I wish you the best
@jennybfoxxy have you been able to find any treatments that have helped your daughters Lyme. I am newly diagnosed and struggling to find treatments that actually work. Any info is greatly appreciated 🙏
@@laurievandusen6178If you are newly infected with Borellia the Doxicyclin is the antbiotics that works best. But you should find a doctor who is experienced in treatment for dosis and lenght of taking it. If you are longer on the run its more difficult... then its important to Diagnose if your spinal chord and brain is infected too. Then other antibiotics would be the choice. And tons of detox....the roots of wild teasel are very helpful. Also hyperthermia treatments...
Much luck and good healing for you! you!
This guy deserves a happy life♥
I am so grateful for this absolute genius. He puts into words that most of us can't articulate. I wm speaking a an 62 year old woman with 9 auto immmunne conditions fir 20+ years. And even the medical professional really just play a guessing game. "Here are some new meds" And that intense disappointment when it does not work but makes things worse. Or drs just dont believe you. Thank you @Ren for giving us a voice. You an amazing man and artist. You are my new addiction. And it help that you are soft on the eye as well😂❤. From Cape Town , South Africa
Such an interesting person! Thanks for introducing him to your audience :)
I’ve seen a number of interviews with Ren and I think this is one of the best ones I’ve seen.
Such a multifaceted artist and a genuinely great person. His art has certainly made 2023 a better one for me.
Ren has managed to articulate some of the recent revelations I've been through myself recently. Lessons I've been trying to hold onto for the times where I relapse into the dark.
My struggle is nothing extraordinary, I'm not putting myself down by saying that. I'm proud to know that other people go through similar things and that we all share that sense of humanity and I'll forever be grateful to Ren for helping me to hold onto my lessons so I can move into my 30's with a new perspective and acceptance of myself.
Diolch yn fawr Ren!
Dwi o Llanberis, tua'r un oed a ti.
And then you go and describe my thoughts on politics too.
Man I'd love a chat if you're in North Wales in the future. I'll take you for a walk in the mountains. Open invite.
❤️🏴💪🏻
REN never stops giving. Whether it’s a new song, fifth time to hear an old one, or a great interview, it always feels like a brand new experience with one of the most gifted souls around. Love Ren
I've been following Ren's journey for a while now, so I feel like he's my big bro at this point. It's cool because his achievements fill me with pride and excitement as if he were part of my family, but it also means he has me in tears at 20:17 ...
Omg Ren... So sorry to hear what you've been through. 🤍🙏☀️
Ren is a gift youtube gave me 2 months ago and my life feels complete now 😊❤
What a wonderful interview of a wonderful person. Chronic illness is a bastard. I’ve never heard “diss ease” and as someone with health issues it really resonated with me. He is incredible. A gift to us all.
What an amazing interview, so open, as Ren typically is. Such a caring soul too. Very relatable.
Really enjoyed this interview mate. What amazes me with Ren's music is I'm 48 years old and I went and bought my first rap/hip hop album. He's just... As you say - he transcends genres. Money game trilogy, jenny and screech trilogy, the iconic Hi Ren, but also his singing collabs with Chinchilla and Eden Nash...
He's a modern day Shakespeare set to a sick beat.
Great interview. Thanks again.
"Rap is like a drumkit!" I'm taking a point for that one. Called it. Been saying this often to myself since hearing Ren's works.
He is such a wise and beautiful person. Ren deserves all success hes had and is going to have. Hes lived a thousand lives but remains humble and genuine. Great interview. ❤
This man deserves all the happiness and sucsess he is a gift
I dont know what it is about Ren, but he gives me an intense sense of nostalgia and i see so much of myself in him.
I too have ADHD and was sad and ill for the bigger part of my childhood and teens. I love how ADHD folk age in reverse. We're young at heart, charismatic, intelligent, intense and empathic. I'm nearly 37 and dont act or look remotely my age.
I really relate to Ren on a deep level. He is a rare, beautiful and deeply refreshing human in a world so cold.
Just discovered your channel because of this interview. Insightful questions and quality interview. Thanks for supporting our man Ren.
Same here! I’ve watched pretty much every interview Ren has done and this one was phenomenal! Really great questions that are different from what I’ve already heard him discuss.
Absolutely 💯 agree
This is probably my favorite interview with an artist, ever.
Same
Ren makes me cry. He's been through so much, more than any one person should have to endure. I'm so thankful he's finding some relief, along with success!
No one deserves success more than this brave young man. A true artist with a heart of gold. He has helped so many people, myself included, with his honesty and made a lot of people feel less alone ❤
always lovely to see ren’s face
He’s full of wisdom from all his experiences, and I love how he talks about both the good and the bad. It really shows they can go hand in hand. I shed a few tears during the interview. He’s such a talented person and really cares about those who are suffering. A truly lovely human being.
Amazing interview! And you finally got him to answer what the pig mask means to him which he's been asked repeatedly and wouldn't explain. He's so well spoken and smart, it's a treat to listen to him give his insights on everything. It helps that you had a really well thought out questions and follow ups to ask as well.
I didn't catch that 😳 what was his answer?
@@Mangomus2011 he talks about it around an hour in, near the end of the interview
Because of this interview i learned about his song patience, if yall got time please listen to it specially if your having a hard time. Super comforting and inspiring. Literally saved me
That was an AmAzInG interview!! Thank you @ZachSangShow for this in-depth and insightful interview with my all-time favorite artist Ren. I loved that it was almost an hour long, letting the world hear more of Ren's story than ever before.
I just discovered Ren, and it has been wonderful! I have had a rare autoimmune disease for 30 years, and Ren's story is so familiar. Ren, thank you for your perseverance and willingness to be vulnerable and expressive about these issues. There is so much I could say about your astounding talent, but I want you to know your music has been a great comfort to me.
My heart is so full of love and admiration for all of you right now. This interview eas truly epic. You did great Zach at realky matching Ren's vulnerability when trying to frame your initial questions! You met each other emotionally at a perfect place of sharing that totally uplifted us all. Thank you so much!
And Ren! My gosh, you have truly been progessing in your poise and clarity over this year. Probably both treatment and practice have nourished your content and style of communication . I'm so proud to be one of your Renegades. ❤
Ren speaks to me in a way I never expected. I have had my own journey through psychological hell. It took me decades to fight my way through, trying many different approaches. When I heard Sick Boi the first time, I just can't describe how it has helped me. Thank you Ren.
1 minute un and I learnt something that I FEEL I should have known or at the very least has been staring me in the face for the last 30 years. That RAP is an acronym for 'Rhythm/Rhyme and poetry'
What a brave, talented,caring , intelligent young man. Finally someone who understands chronic illness.
What an absolutely wonderful interview. Cudos! Ren is so perfect at giving a voice to my soul and speaking things I hadn't even realized into existence. I currently battle 5 autoimmune disorders and if on the rare occasion I find myself not experiencing pain, brain fog, and extreme fatigue, I will be hyper-aware of my body, hear my own heart beat, how I'm breathing, worry, feel anxious and sometimes think I'm dying. I had never really thought of it being the fact that I am so used to feeling so bad that normal feels foreign to me. The understanding and acceptance I have in my life since I found Ren is a true gift.
oh my god, same, i think im autistic, adhd, and ren i would assume could be autistic and adhd, because HE SPEAKS TO ME, in a way no one ever has, most of what he speaks in this interview basically screams ASD traits... i think anyway.
I really love you Ren. For so many their voices never heard & you have changed that for them. You deserve the world and beyond Ren!!
Did Ren ever get the HPV vaccination 7:47 p.m. central 4:40
So happy to see my Dad doing another interview 😁 🥔. Such a wonderful interview. Thank you Zach and Ren ❤❤
Hehe loved the interview step dad!!
@@essencesofgaia7491 ❤
Lol. I love how this dad thing has carried over to a different interview.
Also, potato!
@@Ke_lynn 😁 Only those that know, know 🥔🍋❤
My dad is better then your dad ....oh wait
When he described ADHD I teared up. You don’t have to be musically talented for music to heal the ailments. I can’t play anything or sing but I enjoy music immensely, especially Ren’s music, it calms my body but stimulates my brain. It gives me a reason to sit in peace and absorb. It sends my thoughts in every direction but keeps me calm. Amazing! Thank you!
Which song was this? He’s amazing isn’t he
He should be on all the big major shows. man the stuff you went through could help people all over the place. this is insane. Finally an actual grounded person and it's taking this long for him to blow up it's insane. He could literally help people. How about everybody just stop with all these other artists let's get him blowing up first
I know what you mean but I don’t think Ren should be on all the major shows . Then he would be exploited by them - the people who need to find him will find him through his music and thoughtful interviews like this .
I’m a 60 year old woman with a form of muscular dystrophy which I was diagnosed with at 18. Ren is a huge inspiration. I absolutely love every piece of music he has released!
Ren is an old wise soul. Discovering him has been a life changing experience for me and I’m sure many other people.
Ren, we are so blessed to have you to speak up for the chronic illness community. Your music has changed my life & mindset for the better. Thanks, brother. 🤘🏼
I'm more and more convinced that Ren is a lightworker. They often chose a very difficult life to trigger awakening and now he is shining his light on us for our own healing journey.
What a brave and beautiful soul 💚
Yep he talk more and more open about it lately. 😊
He is light, there is no doubt about that. He speaks for us, those without a voice with his lyricism/music, he lifts everyone who finds him. Music is one of the best ways to connect. Music is the language of God (s). Peace and love to you sister❤️🌎🇦🇺
I have always thought of him as an empath and light worker from the first time I heard him. At 73 years old I bought his music as I had a real soul connection to him and love his genius as a musician . He is an all round artist who can make all kinds of music. His singing voice is brilliant , extraordinary and just amazing. He’s highly intelligent and I do believe he is a light being . Blessings and big intentions sent to him for ongoing fame that he so deserves.💜💜💜🌟🌟🌟🌟😊😊
@@mariontsangarides6447 ❤️❤️❤️
100% Ren is a lightworker!
I’m so pleased to run across this young man in his spiritual-ness. Very happy for him and the universe giving him the feedback he was searching for
Very wise
