Guys! thankyou so much for reacting to my video, really enjoyed watching you guys break this down! really appreciate your kind words and really appreciate the support!
@renmakesmusic you've touched so many people with this song, thank you.
Ren! Keep ur doing ur thing boss. Speak so much truth that people struggle to find the words for. Ur extremely under rated and I really hope u blow up soon
I swear this song is a timemachine, it lasts for 9 minutes but feels like 3, outta this world
I'm so happy they found you, Ren. Love you
Seeing you respond on all these reaction channels makes me love you even more! Ren, thank you so much for this performance. As someone with similar struggles, it makes me feel like someone truly "GETS IT". Keep doing what you are doing...and continue to inspire ❤
Ren has a lot more to offer. He raps (see The Hunger, Genesis, Money Game 1 and 2, Sick Boi), he is a master story teller (see Jenny/Screech/Violet's Tale trilogy), and he has an absolute beautiful singing voice (Chalk Outlines w/ Chinchilla). Evocative. AND AND - many of his videos are live/one take. One of a kind.
This right here! Please feel free to go down the Ren rabbit hole gents!
PLEASE do The Tale of Jenny and Screech and Violet’s Tale in that order! The 3 together should be one reaction.
For his guitar skills, and vocals, check out his stuff he did with Sam Thompkins and the band The Big Push! Dude is crazy talented and versatile!
Every song he has is memorable and real.Ren has lime disease and mental health issues if I remember correctly.as far as im aware,he's in Canada getting surgeries and IV treatments several times a day and the pill line is more likely speaking of prescription medications for mental illness...I think,more than a drug addiction,however it could be referring to both.🙂watch all these recommendations, they each are unique,but Jenny's tale,screetchs. Tale and violets tale is a TRILOGY.start with Jenny's tale,then Screetchs tale,and last is Violets tale.welcome to the wormhole that is REN.🙂✌
Blind eyed with Sam tompkins was what got me into ren originally
@@samuelthesandwich Same man. Shout out to the parking lot attendant dude!
This is one of the coolest things I've heard in a while. Props to you both for exposing me to shit I would have never heard without you.
Should really check out his other stuff. He is absolutely amazing
Dude, have you not like been on TH-cam for the last few months? Seriously though welcome to the party 😂
Definitely check out more of his stuff, he’s one of the most talented artists in the world and definitely the most versatile.
Being an old man and open to all musical genre, this was a breathe of fresh air. It's so hard to find musical writers who write deeply like this. This felt real. You could feel the emotions through the writing, the guitar and the voice. Well done Ren.
I’ve been waiting for you guys to get to Ren. I’m 56 and this young man might be the most important artists I’ve ever seen. I pray he can thrive as he becomes known.
I agree. Ren is a genius and this song made me go down the Ren rabbit hole. He is so versatile and you haven’t seen nothing jet of him. As someone with multiple autoimmune diseases I get him. He is the greatest artist I have ever come across in my entire 56 years of my life. What sets him apart from other artists are his lyrics and performances. He has something profound to say and his use of language is superior. He is so intelligent and philosophical and a great thinker. On top of that he is a masterful musician. I just hope his treatment in Canada the next 6 months will help him to make more music. Having gone through what he has gone through, misdiagnosed with several physical and mental illnesses when he had active bacterial infection of Lyme disease. A disease that all the doctors missed for almost a decade. It left him with several organ damages, his brain included. What a journey. Sony dropped him as soon as he got sick. So he just kept busking with his friends whenever he could.
56 here too, and agree.
@@margretoddny - thanks for this great info on his story and treatment! Sorry to break up the 56 year old party- I’m only 48. 😊
55 here and I approve. I was watching Metallica and Black Sabbath videos when this popped up on my YT suggestions lol.
I've never heard of this guy & that was absolutely fascinating. I was completely captivated for the whole time & that didn't feel like anywhere near 9 minutes long.
I thought the same thing and after hearing and watching 200 reactions…it’s fact. 9 min could have been 20! And we would have kept watching
I saw a response where Ren called it bardcore. I think that’s a perfect description.
This is also basically a live performance, if you notice the mic on his gown.
Chalk outline, sick Boi, the hunger, Jenny tale screech tale violets tale are all great. This guy is special
100
Love how Ren jumps around in everyone's commentaries. Thanking for the response🙏🏾 He's truly one of a kind ❤
I've listened to this son close to 50 times now. There are MANY things that are profound and have wow factor with what Ren has said and done in this video alone. The one that gives me chills every single time is. "You know me my name is Temptation and I am immortal. Oh, yeah? Well my name is HOPE AND I AM ETERNAL!".... Bravo Ren I get chills every time man... Godspeed
This was one of the greatest musical numbers I've come across lately and arguably, ever. He is a great artist.
You know it's good when you can hold people attention for a song over 9min long. 🔥🔥
Yes, its funny seeing reactors seeing that it's over 9 minutes and being dubious about taking on the daunting task of a song so long and then watching them at the end wanting it to go longer
And then how baby of us have been following reactions around for weeks now? Ren is mesmerising.
@@NilZed1 I was wondering how many baby's were watching him myself 😍
If this was 20 minutes long I'd be sitting here for 20 minutes and would regret that it was over at the end. Ren touches a nerve that (and this is a strange statement) hasn't been struck since my Pink Floyd phase 20 years ago. It's just really, really, real.
@@tonykaze Pink Floyd is not a 'phase', my friend. It lasts for a lifetime.
This is wild. I was not expecting this, but I am pleasantly surprised and impressed
I've heard this about a hundred times and it still makes me cry when he stands up and sings that triumphant verse at the end. What is wrong with me 😂😂😂😭
Nothing is wrong with you. You are wonderfully made and He is calling to you.
@@joshpotter2884 thank you kindly Mr Potter. Are you related to Harry by any chance? 😂😂😂
Nothing at all, you're just a human being reacting normally to something that is really honest and heartfelt =D
@@fredrikekholm3718 thanks, I do feel deeply but I was kind of laughing at myself and the crying is joyful so its good 😊
I'm right there with you. The song took me on an emotional roller coaster
this track is pure gold, its a masterpiece
🙏😭💖👏👍😱
Im glad you found Ren, his talent is beyond this world.
He has an amazing catalog and he masters the most genres.
Digg deeper and you will not be disappointed!
So happy you chose this! I was JUST about to write it in your comments. Please ponder reacting to The Tale if Jenny and Screech and then Violet's Tale (as everyone else has said, in that exact order as a trilogy). You see a different side to his storytelling and essence with his guitar.
Always lovely seeing that he has the mic attached and is doing this live in one takes.
This guy is versatile and amazing in his ability to soar within many genres, from deep psychologic tales to Hip Hop to the Blues to Reggae and beyond. It's worthwhile checking him out further. His live band, The Big Push, is also pretty remarkable.
Even though there is something to be said about the evils of social media it has also given me a few precious gifts. One of those gifts is this channel and another is this song. This young man is obviously very talented. I haven’t had a chance to listen to any of his other songs but I feel confident in calling this song a masterpiece. Just my opinion. Peace and love my friends ✌️
Every song is different and profound in its own way. Have a look. But be warned, it'll sweep you up and a way for a day or two.
Take a look at the tales of Jenny, Screech and Violet (all can be found in one 13min video) and Money game part 1 and 2. Just excellent stuff, Ren is my favorite artist nowadays.
Well said!! You gave me a reason to see a bright spot of "social media"
Hadn't thought about it this way, but you're right: I'm also in the opinion that social media was a mistake, but it did allow me to find this reaction channel and the algorithms I hate so much pestered me for a month to hear this song and I'm so grateful. Maybe we have to learn to separate the good from the bad more effectively, for there is good after all.
I was just saying this. Internet is a tool with beautiful parts and equal parts evil. It’s up to us to manage what we ingest and how often.
Wow that’s crazy Talent
This isn’t a song you “Like” and throw on a playlist. This is a song you appreciate and learn to understand
This song has really had an impact on me and it's amazing to see soo many people connecting with it. I really hope they do "Jenny and Screech, and Violet's Tale", I heard that song for the first time yesterday and I was even more blown away. This kid is the most creative artist I've ever heard, he needs to be promoted EVERYWHERE!!
The guy can sing rap sing play base ext. the song the hunger is straight rap. Makes his own beats. He is very interesting.
Lu et approuvé bon com car cela a eu un impact sur moi également étant concernée merci infiniment Ren longue vie bon rétablissement les réactions sont tellement bon et tout est bien décrit
Seriously never been so stoked for a Friday night every night when I get off work I drink a couple beers and watch some of your videos but I’m super excited to watch this one
I've been waiting to see if you guys were going to react to Ren! This is the intro song! Ren is a BEAST!
Ren is such a versatile artist who can do it all. His music has the ability to reach into people's souls and to put words to emotions that most of us can't express. He is a modern day bard that definitely will be going places
Wow! I almost turned this off soon as he started the ooh ooh stuff at the beginning, but so glad I didn't. That was very powerful and very chilling, but very very good. Having had family members dealing with metal illness, and seeing how it devastates the people that suffer with them, and the families that live with someone suffering, this really hit home with me. Great choice gentlemen, and as always great reaction.
So glad you didn't make a haste judgment and miss this!!!
I honestly don't think it's about mental illness. It's just about art and fear.
@@nettinoo He literally talks about how he dealt with psychosis in the final speech.
@@nettinoo Way to miss the point. Wow. You are ...truly amazing.
@J Hoop 100%. This song is written from Ren's perspective dealing with mental health but the lessons learned are full on life lessons!
So glad you guys reacted to this, Hope you do some more of Ren's stuff, you won't be disappointed! Great reaction!
Cheers guys, love the channel and the community of free thinkers is beyond grateful for you! 🙌
The Lovato Gym.
Do "The tale of Jenny and Screech (full)" next! You won't regret it!
Soooo glad you guys did this. It's great stuff
Thanks guys, always good to hear your input!
Finally Ren hits the holy grail of reaction channels 😉The boy is a genius but that boy has suffered. And still does. It’s brutally honest which is so refreshing. Definitely check out more please.
Soooo happy you got to see this.
Since the first reaction I saw to this, I've been waiting for you guys to get to it. LIV is the best reaction channel I've seen, you are very much appreciated. I'd love to hear your take after you give this song about 3 listens. Playlist? Nah... it's not that kind of thing. But it is a matter class in story telling artistry. This is like nothing I've ever heard before.
Same lol. Couldn't believe it took this long
Same, this song has really had an impact on me and it's amazing to see soo many people connecting with it. I really hope they do "Jenny and Screech, and Violet's Tale", I heard that song for the first time yesterday and I was even more blown away. This kid is the most creative artist I've ever heard, he needs to be promoted EVERYWHERE!!
If you go to his page he has written about his autoimmunity struggle that has literally taken half of his life from him. Sad story, but an inspiration for hope, and the fact that this man has dealt with that and is capable of putting out this level of creativity is saying something. Thanks for the excellent reaction, guys.
Thank you for doing this reaction guys. I am a little surprised that you both said it wasn't really one you would go back to, except to perhaps make further interpretation of the lyrics. That said, I appreciate that you both felt it was very creative and talented, and felt that Ryan's suggestion that it is something he would share is important. I was wondering why? The reason being, I also felt an overwhelming urge to share it too after I first listened to this song. I've mainly shared it with folk without mental health issues, but I have seen all over the internet folk with problems connecting with this song. And even if you don't, as George says, we can all recognise the struggle between the light and dark sides of ourselves. I have shared it with friends, family and even with patients and for different reasons, but always because I think that they will also get something from it, be it the creativity, the insight or that they will empathise.
Cheers guys.
I kind of get this. I was exhausted after my first watch, and didn't think I'd watch it again. But found myself watching reactions to it just to see what people went through as it progresses.
@@jonathancornick5792 that makes sense. It was a pretty emotional watch.
I really enjoyed your reaction, the more we talk about mental health the better mental health will be. Thanks for helping to spread Ren's music.
Wow! It’s about time, hahaah! I’ve been coming back to your guys channel for at least a month, and finally you decided to react Hi Ren. I truly appreciate!
Jennys tale, screech’s tale, violets tale (full)
Enjoy
YO!! Why tf Cheezy Gang went so damn hard?!
Also, thank you for reacting, i was waitinf for this (:
I have been hoping you guys would do this. When you guys take the song seriously you still have my favorite takes in the reaction world.
Here is some additional information on Ren's story that I gathered from old newspaper interviews, articles, and Ren's public livestreams and posts. A handful of people frequently post an earlier version of my comment to various reactions that they copied and pasted verbatim, so if this is a repeat just ignore this comment. I keep editing the information, as needed, and have removed details about Ren that some found to be too personal, such as his full name and D.O.B. All the information here was gathered exclusively from sources Ren personally approved for public release.
Ren is a British musician/independent artist/producer, self-taught multi-instrumentalist; originally from Wales. Ren pursued a career in music from an early age. In 2009, while studying music performance at Bath Spa University, Ren began to experience health issues and was struggling to attend his lectures, which eventually caused him to discontinue his studies and return home. In addition, Ren was signed by Sony Records in 2010 and was working on an album when his health deteriorated to the point that he was unable to go on; consequently, his contract with Sony was dissolved. Ren would later relocate to Brighton.
Ren's illness often kept him in bed for up to 23 hours daily. Ren was initially misdiagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, and chronic fatigue syndrome, which led him to experience psychosis and develop PTSD. It would take seven years before a doctor in Belgium finally correctly diagnosed Ren with autoimmunity, Lyme disease, and resulting damage to the brain, organs, joints, and PTSD. Ren eventually underwent stem cell therapy in the United States, which improved his health, but it has not been a cure.
Ren is in Calgary, Canada for at least six months (Summer of 2023), undergoing treatments such as IV therapy and other interventions five days a week, as well as surgeries (wisdom tooth removal and cavitation surgery). His Canadian doctor discovered that Ren also developed a condition called Mast Cell Activation Disorder (MCAD), which has affected the myelin sheath in his brain, his thyroid, and adrenals as well as his bones/joints. Hence, Ren is receiving additional treatments for this previously undiagnosed condition. He recently took a break from treatments and returned to the UK to visit family and friends, and to produce some very ambitious musical projects to be released soon.
Let's keep supporting Ren as he undergoes his treatments. Check out and subscribe to his channel; if you are a content creator, ask your audience to subscribe to Ren. Ren's YT channel just surpassed 1 million subscribers. and his videos have garnered millions and millions of views. Listen to some of his earlier work, like and comment on his performances, and let's lift Ren's spirits. If you are a believer, pray for him. Ren is an artist with something to say to the world, and his work is important in these troubling times. Someone has finally created a Wikipedia page for Ren, so there is additional information available.
I think he'll be better as an independent in the long run honestly. Way more money for him personally and no parasitic labels sucking the creativity out of him and changing him. He MUST stay himself. Afterall, that is why we love him no?
@@txdrmr I absolutely agree.
MERCI INFINIMENT POUR TOUTES SES INFOS BON À SAVOIR QUEL GÉNIE TALENTUEUX BRILLIANT UNIQUE LES BRAS M'EN TOMBE WOUAHHHH PHÉNOMÈNAL
Been following since Ill Mind Of Hopsin 5. I followed because of your in-depth break downs of each song you listen to. Keep talking.
You are one of the few that caught the Biblical references. Nicely done
I look for this in every reaction 😂
Everybody I know caught them. Maybe you're hanging with the wrong crowd, lol. 😘
Dude the references are so in your face that you need to be double blind not to see, but saying that also keep in mind that not that many people care as we live in a time where the bible is irrelevant, undressed and empty in the face of the modern age. Fugg a book that says shrimp, immodest colors in woman's dress and murder are equal tickets to hell when modern philosophy contemplates the possibility that there exists a unique world for every choice contemplated. The unholy unimportance of this life in the face of eternal existence is much more frightening than the thought of the flame of this life being the only light we ever get. Dont waste this light hoping for better later. This might be all there is and it would be a shame if you wasted it dreaming of what someone told you might come after.
@@rustknuckleirongut8107
1) The Bible is the most relevant book ever. It influences everything. There have been many attempts to "undress" it, but all have fallen short.
2) Your comment about shrimp and clothing displays demonstrates your lack of comprehension, regarding the Bible.
3) Please expound on which modern philosophies you are referencing. Free will vs Determinism? Or are you speaking of the philosophy of "Do what thou wilt."?
@@deborahlester4018
Maybe....😁
You guys got me into watching reaction videos back in 2019 when I watched all your Chris Stapleton reactions... multiple times. Excited to see you guys react to this one! Fantastic job!
George hit the nail on the head. This is the eternal dance. Great song, great reaction.
The artistry tapped into something human. And I agree this isn’t rap, rock, or really any genre. It’s just genuine. Thanks for doing this song.
Yessssssss.
You def need to check "the tale of jenny and screech" plus "violets tale" some of the best storytelling videos ive seen in yearssss
Favorite reactors! Would love to see some more lupe
At first I thought this was MC Ren when I saw the title and I was like "ain't no way bro is playing the guitar"😂😂 awesome review per usual guys!
Great reaction. “Hi Ren" is the song that put Ren on everyone's radar since December; it went viral and has garnered more than 4 million views since its debut, but he has been creating great music for more than ten years. Ren’s music videos are often recorded live in a single take (although not necessarily the first take). His release, "Sick Boi," is almost another chapter to "Hi Ren." Many of his songs resonate with people because he addresses struggles that many others face every day.
Ren plays multiple instruments (acoustic, electric, and bass guitar, piano, drums), has impressive vocals, is an excellent storyteller, and is quite the philosopher and poet. He is considered by many a modern bard. His trilogy "The Tale of Jenny/Screech/Violet" is haunting and has an unforeseen conclusion. It needs to be watched in the order given, as this is the flow of the storyline. It is another example of Ren’s genius and a master’s class in storytelling. It has been likened to a Shakespearean tragedy.
Ren’s collaborations with Chinchilla (“Chalk Outlines,” “How to Be Me”) are beautiful and showcase his singing voice while addressing mental health. His live music videos are especially impressive. Ren's personal reflections are threaded through many of his songs; "Insomnia," "Depression," “Diazepam," “Penitence,” “Dear God,” “Heretic,” “Dominos,” his "Freckled Angels" album, just to name a few, all deserve a listen. His song "Money Game" (Part I & II) is another recommendation, although it is less of a personal song than it is an indictment of greed and the resulting injustices in this world.
Ren’s Hip Hop/Rap style songs are also worth checking out; they are simply amazing. Check out “The Hunger,” “Genesis,” “What You Want,” “Losing it (FISHER rap retake),” “Right here, right now (Fatboy Slim one shot retake),” "Life is Funny," “Love Music (1, 2, and 3),” “Crucify Your Culture,” “Power,” and his latest release, “Bittersweet symphony (The Verve retake).”
His performances with Sam Tompkins (“Blind Eyed,” “Earned it /Mans World / Falling,” “Walking on the Moon), Eden Nash (“Humble,” “Ocean”), Bibi (“Crutch,” “Ahiahiaoha”), Molly McKinna (“Penitence”), his former bandmate, Romain Axisa (“French Song”) are all great.
Ren's performances as a member of the band "The Big Push" (which unfortunately broke up), their busking (street performances), concerts, and their live recordings, are awesome and well worth checking out. Ren's covers of "I Shot the Sheriff," "Wade in the Water," "An Englishman in New York," “War Pigs,” the songs "Oh My Woman," “Swan Song,” "War Pigs," "Sweet Little Lady," "It's Alright," "Watch Out," and so many others are equally impressive.
Ren recently released his single, “Sick Boi.” In anticipation of his stay in Canada for more treatments, Ren prepared some music ahead of time to be released over the next six months that he expects to be gone. As mentioned above, his latest release, “Bittersweet Symphony (The Verve retake),” is another masterful work.
Thank You For Introducing Me To Ren. This Was A Very Enlightening Performance And Only Reiterates The Fact That We All Experience Struggle In Life But The Key To Progress Is Allowing Yourself To Feel The Pain That May Be Uncomfortable In Order To Get To Liberation. Will Definitely Check Out More Of Ren. Thank You.
Luv it!! The Big Push " Englishman in New York" and The big push " Bongo bong" x you will luv it I think
He isn't just a musician....he is a total performer. Just, brilliant!
I've pretty much watched every reaction to this song. This is one of the best reactions so far. Great breakdown and explanation of the song.
The more intense the light shines the darker the shadow it cast !
The more intense the joy you want is the contrast must exist also the darker the shadow it casts.
Be careful what you wish for you just might get it
Happy to be here
so glad u2 did Hi Ren..Great reaction, welcome to the Ren rabbit hole ;) its a deep one..pls check out:
Ren - The Tale of Jenny & Screech (Full) /// The Big Push - I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop /// Ren X Chinchilla - Chalk Outlines (live)
you will not be disapointed by this genius ;)
oh man, the fact you spent 1/3 of the video discussing shows the depth. I have got caught in the Ren rabbit hole since I first found this song. Ren's music has excited me like no other new music since I heard G'n'R in '89. Please look at more of his music, it is all supreme
When someone tells a story and you can visually see what there talking about in your mind..that is an amazing story teller..Ren is exactly that..amazing story teller 🔥🔥👍😎😎
So glad to see this come up. I've been watching reactions to this the past two weeks wishing you guys would do it.
Ren is a true artist. You will see this is all done Live in one shot take. Great camera work and lighting. He is KIng of the one shot take. Pull some other threads for this boy.
The "She sells seashells on the sea shore" is a callback to one of his earlier songs (Money Game part 2) which became viral a few years ago. Definitely worth checking out.
I’ve been watching this I called him a kid I’m 61 but I also noticed that in comments of almost all the reactions I haven’t heard many things negative which is refreshing because a lot of times you get on reactions and people just Gotta make waves or be mean. This is something to consider.
Get you guys on Patreon too 😎
Best reaction from you guys in a while! You defo need to go down the Ren rabbit hole now. Do The Tales of Jenny & Screech followed by Violets Tale (all in one video) to see a masterclass in storytelling, performance and music. He also has some amazing more hip hop tracks. You guys would love Losing It, The Hunger, Power and he just brought out his Bittersweet Symphony retake.
Edit: You guys would also love his Money Game Pt. 1, 2 & 3 series. It's what the "She sells sea shells on the sea shore" is referencing as he uses it as a metaphor for capitalism in Money Game Pt.2 .
Chalk Outlines shows off his singing voice. Ren sings, raps, rhymes & is compared to a modern day Bard. He sings live on the streets of Brighton with a band called The Big Push. He is currently in Canada undergoing 6+ months medical care.
why are people saying not to talk? that's why I watch this channel ffs. I want to hear you talk before, during, after. If I wanted to hear the song uninterrupted I'd just watch the band's video. Keep talking please. Thanks.
Yeah those people make no sense, the purpose of a reaction channel is for the reactor to share their thoughts throughout the video. If you want to listen to the song uninterrupted, go watch the original video because you've missed the point lol. If the reactor doesn't pause the video, it makes it more likely to have a copyright strike. These people just like to complain lmao.
I can tell You this guy is AMAIZING
Ren is an amazing entertainer a true artist. Writer, musician producer, I love his busking work. Very versatile always captivating. Go to the Rabbit hole
“Pop another pill boy” is the meaning of treating ppl with medicaments, with no real treatment.
You guys nailed it! I think we all love when someone creates something so fresh and new that we can’t put it in any category or genre. Kudos to Ren for putting out such a beautiful piece of art! We don’t all have mental issues but we all have that inner monologue between doing good or bad so I’m pretty sure we can all relate. Thank you guys and a big thank you to Ren for being so vulnerable and sharing this with the world. We are definitely better for it. Peace
Check out Ren “The Hunger”. It showcases his rapping abilities. “Genesis” is an awesome rap song too.
You guys neeeeeed to do the Jenny/screech/Violet tales. As both a musician and a listener, it is the most creative thing I’ve heard in the last 20 years.
For sure so much talent… I believe he makes his own beats. They do have a CD out called I believe is freckled angels little more polished.
But I think it takes away the emotion that is so raw…
Your guys’ commentary is what makes this a great TH-cam page. I appreciate your consistent interaction with videos.
Thank you for reacting to this!!!!
Dude, I've heard the song 5 times today! 2 times alone, third time when I took it out to the living room to share with the family and 2 more times watching reaction videos! Looked up his other songs and the man is a true Bard. I'm a fan.
Nolan Taylor - 68; I would love to see your reaction. Talent + amazing song writing. Make it happen!
I love that this is a cross over population
Probably the most relevant and profound video I've ever listened to. Thank you Ren
this guy is gonna be a superstar....too much talent ...he is gonna blow up one day
It is very theater like. Lots of diverse talent in a short spot. Thanks for sharing.
You know what, LIV, I let my Patreon lapse recently but I missed you and this video reminded me of how much I love you guys! I'm going to renew right now. 🥰
Definitely Creative and a talented person. I salute him for speaking his truth about struggling with mental illness. Hope he continues to get help for whatever struggles he has endured. Although probably not a song l would revisit but still respect what he is trying to do in speaking out.
He actually was sick for years and misdiagnosed because he has lyme disease that went untreated for all those years. He's now in Canada getting treatment for all the damage it's done to his body. He has a huge catalog of great music
Great reaction, I feel
You guys nailed it!
That was great! Thanks for introducing me to Ren. I'll have to check him out a bit more!
As someone who was left disabled after a work accident and then had to battle for 6.5 years just to get compensation your mental health eventually deteriorates and until this very day I wake up everyday thinking is this my last day on earth.
This is an important song. Artists often struggle with imposter syndrome.
There’s also a movie starring Olivia Munn called “Violet” that rings of this. It was a transformative experience for me… just as this song also resonates.
As a person who’s never been able to escape negative self-talk, *realizing* that you can exert the strength that destructive voice questions-strength that you *know* you have-is sooo important.
It takes time to push past the negativity-to make your own voice stronger, but if anyone out there is struggling with this, please please please *know* that you can do it.
*Know* that I believe in you… but you don’t need me to-just like you don’t need the shroud of doubt that feels first of protection and then as a prison.
You are *stronger* than that voice.
You are stronger than you can *possibly* know…
until you push back with softness or aggression-your choice.
His health issues are real and he is currently getting treatment in Canada, he was originally misdiagnosed and went through issues from that, he later got correctly diagnosed with Lyme Disease.
I love these two guys 😂❤
They like the songs I like and they always make me laugh.
Lots of love from London
Great reaction guys! Check out Ren's track Losing it, the song is hip hop on steroids bro 💯🔥
If people want y’all to shut up then why are they watching your videos of y’all commenting on music when they can just watch the video without any “interruptions”. Thank y’all for your videos and your interpretations especially on the songs that I already know and love because I get a different perspective or a new one all together. Do what y’all do.
You Guys need to Check out Ren band The big push, They do alot of covers and are FANTASTIC...They do a cover of I shot the sheriff that is brilliant. This dude is MASSIVELY talented
Ren raps about selling sea shells in his song "Money Game part 2", that bit became sorta famous because it was used in the "Luigi teaches Luigi about capitalism" meme.
REN's message in this performance is Universal- the eternal struggle between doubt and hope- that's why it slaps you in the face and punches you in the gut ( in the best of ways)
I, for one, loved to see you guys being overwhelmed -just as I was by this performance. Lest we not forget we are all human beings and that cursed pendulum keeps on swinging!
Genesis, The Hunger, What You Want, Power, Chalk Outlines (live) w/Chinchilla, Diazepam, Money Game 1&2, Love Song 1,2,3... don't miss the Tale of Jenny and Screech (full)!
This man has a stunning gift and his whole catalog is breathtaking.
Late comment here so you may know his story by now. He has Lyme disease but he was misdiagnosed for 10 yrs. He suffered horrible physical & mental pain. He was bed-bound, housebound, told it was all in his head, overmedicated & given medications that make Lyme disease worse. There is every possibility that it could have killed him. He is currently receiving treatment in Calgary to try to mitigate the damage done.
Definitely check out more of his stuff, he’s one of the most talented artists in the world and definitely the most versatile.
SO GLAD you guys finally got to this one!!!!
Ive been waiting and hoping you guys would react to this one, I stumbled across Ren last month and am blown away by him. You guys are my favorite reaction channel, keep up the great content.
