Ren was the original drummer for The Big Push (before Glen came aboard), so yes, that's him making the percussion noises (along with the beatboxing.) In several of the bts Big Push videos shot in Ren's apartment, there's also a cello propped up against the wall, which I'm guessing wasn't for decoration (he has, of course, written a string section, including cello, for the end of Money Game Pt. 3.) Heard him say in an interview once that he can "make noise" on just about anything. Noise, indeed!
I love Ren flexing in this one! He put all the different flows together and made a monster! I know this was filmed in Brighton, but idk the latitude/longitude :D It's so funny seeing people up top watching him. I love his beatboxing in the background.
I see and hear more than that. To me this is an invocation. He's telling the universe who he is and what he wants, giving notice of his imminent arrival. Just break down some of the bars. "Conquer music scene, golden ticket Wonka". "All the seeds that I planted slowly growing like trees." It sounds like a spoken word spell. Remember, too, that it was just a year later that he earned #1 album in the UK.
I love double header Rendsday! This is in Brighton England. 50.82838, -0.13947. You did ask for it, lok😂😂. He does direct, produce and mix most of his music.
The video was shot near Brighton Marina in summer 2022: 50.813984, -0.108021. I think that area may be developed now, so bye bye graffiti wall. At least images of the wall are preserved in some street view shots, photos, and this video.
@@eryksunthank you - I’ve been trying to find that spot for maybe 10 months. I felt sure it was Brighton as almost all the videos are/were until he went to Canada, but something about how it looked had be convinced this was way inland on the edge of the city. I never thought to look for it so close to the sea! Can confirm that on Streetview, I’ve found a spot and an angle on Marina Way that even still has the sofa there!
I'm LOVING the reactions 👏 You need to add Ren's "Humble" to your reaction list... You'll love it and might find yourself playing it when you need a pick me up with an amazing beat! Thank you 👍
His videos are filmed in Brighton on the south coast of England. I've been lucky to see him perform on the streets of the city with his band The Big Push. The guy is so talented it's mind-blowing! You should check out his street performance doing a mashup of I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop. It shows his versatility. You definitely won't be disappointed. He can rap, sing, beatbox, plays guitar and piano, produces all his music. In fact his talent is unlimited. He plays all genres, therefore he can entertain everyone whether you're into rap, reggae, ska, punk or metal. Absolute genius. I'm a 57 year old Goth who NEVER got into rap and now there's this local guy that I HAVE to listen to every bloody day 😂. Enjoy the Ren rabbit hole because there's no coming back 😊
Do yourselves a favor, whether it's for the channel or not, go to Ren's TH-cam page, and watch all of his videos from the oldest to the newest and listen to/watch his journey. Dude was super talented then, even more so now.
Yay! A double feature of Rensday!!! This was one of the first songs I heard by Ren and it still blows me away! He's such a versatile performer, I'm so glad you guys are getting deeper into his catalogue and enjoying it as much as I do! Awesome reaction guys!
It's his interview with Zach Sang, he goes over what happened and all the treatments he tried before he even knew he had Lyme disease. It us a great interview. Check it out when you get time, it is fascinating and informative.
It's the seafront near Brighton a bit along the coast from the main seafront/pier. There's a lot of derelict commercial properties around there. A lot of Ren's videos are filmed at locations around Brighton cos it's local for him.
Dig you guys a lot. Love watching you go through REN’s unique repertoire ❣️❣️❣️ Great chemistry together and insightful comments. What a personal refreshing gift these last couple years…and each new piece a surprise🥰
Yall really should go to his youtube page and catch his story from the start. He is our modern day shakespiear. His story is sad but so interisting.Start from the begaining.
Well ....Actually Ren had to be at least 17 (which is still very young of age for such kind of movie) when he watched "Zeitgeist-The Movie" which is a kind of documentary movie about mythology and also about conspiracy theories and which obviously clearly had an huge impact to some topics of his songs. That movie came out in 2007 (therefore he had to be 17) and had 2 continuations = "Zeitgeist:Addendum" (2008) and "Zeitgeist:Moving Forward" (2011) Just as info.
So this is the result of Ren getting so hungry that he ate all the flows until they started overflowing and he spat them back out on this fire track 😂 Love to see you hungry too. Hungry for more Ren that is 😂 I knew you would love the production in this one. Just a feast for the ears. I think one of the things that makes Ren so brilliant as a producer and songwriter in general is that attention to details. He adds so many little extra touches that could easily become too much except he knows exactly how to find the right balance so it just keeps it interesting and feels like little Easter eggs once you notice the little sounds and layers. This is definitely one of my favourites because the production and the constant changes to the flows just makes my ADD brain so damn happy 😂 I can’t wait for you to reach another personal favourite from a completely different corner of the rabbit hole: Crutch feat. Bibi. It’s an older song from before Ren was finally correctly diagnosed and was written after a breakdown following multiple emergency trips to the hospital. It is heart wrenching and stunning.
I’ve seen all of them 3+ the extended I love Peter Joseph! And I love that ran loved it I heard him explain the pig is to him like the bunny was to Donnie Darko.
I honestly love your reactions because you get it. You get why people are going crazy for Ren!! You react like I do when I watch his videos. He is so so so amazing x
I’m not sure if you’ve been recommended these yet but his Love Music series is fun to listen to !!!! There’s 4 parts and if you listen in order you can hear his personality really come out
Did you guys watch Back on 74 first, then The Hunger? Or the other way around? Possibly the two most different vibes from one another! 🤯 The Hunger is my kicking ass and taking names song 🤣🔥🔥🔥
Please please react to Ren and his Band The Big Push street preference of I shot the sheriff/road to zion/hip hop it's straight 🔥🔥🔥 his guitar skills are crazy Awesome Xx
Bah, almost every video of his I can tell you where it’s shot as I love geodetective things and I’ve spent hours pinning the locations down - but this one has had me stumped because I don’t think it shows up on streetview. I know it’s got trucks parked off to the right where it ends, and there are some other takes of this that they didn’t use (one where Ren nearly slipped over) which show some other clues where it might be. Also - I have tried putting lat and long cords in comments on YT before and YT immediately deleted the comment…they don’t seem to want people posting locations in chat comments for some reason.
It's filmed at an abandoned shopping arcade in Brighton. And yes, he makes all the beats and sounds himself.
Filmed in a section of Brighton Beach, next to the Brighton Marina.
@@Onewayoflife75 yeah. That background is old boarded up shops 👀. This is a very common style of shopping arcade from all over Britain.

"Make noise"! I love the noise Ren makes!!
2 Ren reactions in one day?!? You’re spoiling us and I love it. Thank you
Ren actions
I think they need to up to 3 😅
The in the Ren habit hole now..
Welcome to the world of Ren..
❤
What blew MY mind is that you guys hadnt seen this one yet. This is the polar opposite of Back On 74. He is such a kaleidoscope.
I love Ren flexing in this one! He put all the different flows together and made a monster! I know this was filmed in Brighton, but idk the latitude/longitude :D It's so funny seeing people up top watching him. I love his beatboxing in the background.
I recommend watching that interview in its entirety. Just a beautiful interview he gave.
Yes I agree!
Agree!!!
I’ve re listened to it at least twice more.
This is just Ren showing us what he can do. Just flexing.
I see and hear more than that. To me this is an invocation. He's telling the universe who he is and what he wants, giving notice of his imminent arrival. Just break down some of the bars. "Conquer music scene, golden ticket Wonka". "All the seeds that I planted slowly growing like trees." It sounds like a spoken word spell. Remember, too, that it was just a year later that he earned #1 album in the UK.
It's great that you guys pick up on more than the rap, which is understandably what most focus on. This track is a feast for the ears.

@@eryksunI also thought I heard this area was being demolished/developed.

Can confirm that on Streetview, I’ve found a spot and an angle on Marina Way that even still has the sofa there!
Black Rock, Brighton. Urban development work is underway there now.
@@sputukgmailit just left of the marina if you face the land rather than the sea. I think you have the right spot.
I'm LOVING the reactions 👏 You need to add Ren's "Humble" to your reaction list... You'll love it and might find yourself playing it when you need a pick me up with an amazing beat! Thank you 👍
They found the pink wheelchair used in Hi Ren while they were there filming this video. Love this song
Double Rensday... love it! 💥🦇💥🦇💥
Again love how when you listen you hear what’s going on in the background, which makes me take more notice as well. The layers. Every Ren song! 🤯
❤❤I know every word of this song... if only I could get them out at the speed he does😂
Same…I’m getting there, slowly, but now I’m struggling for breath :)
@@sputukgmail The "T" schemes got me stuttering over here! "TtttttttttT"😂

Filmed in Brighton geezers
I just laughed seriously out loud and made my dog jump... Who the hell says geezer.. I love that and I do too now

Love The Hunger. I never really liked rap but with Ren I love it 😅. Great reaction.
Yassss two in one day! We need Rensday every day! 😂
Brighton marina is the location
Love the addition of the research clip, I hadn’t seen that before.
It's his interview with Zach Sang, he goes over what happened and all the treatments he tried before he even knew he had Lyme disease. It us a great interview. Check it out when you get time, it is fascinating and informative.
@@kellyt5341really well done interview.

Thank you!!!😊#loveRensdays!!❤
This is one of the best reactions to Hunger I have seen. Thanks ❤
I love you guys and your reactions! You get as excited as we so with Ren! ❤

This song is an underrated masterpiece of genius. so frickin good!
Love this one! The flow switches, beatboxing and lyrics are pure fire. Loved your reaction 💜💜
It’s his own beat, that’s him beat boxing too 😂❤
Yall really should go to his youtube page and catch his story from the start. He is our modern day shakespiear. His story is sad but so interisting.Start from the begaining.
Just found your channel, subbing for more Ren! I'll have to go back and watch your other content.
Great reaction. Thanks
❤One of my Faves❤

Just as info.
Dare ya to count the words, then divide by the time! It equals an average of something like 2.3 words per second!
Great reaction ❤ guys. Have you reacted to his “Losing It” as you will briefly see him at home studio preparing his tracks

Yaaaassssss one of the reactions I was waiting for 🙌 next up "for joe"
You are so much fun to watch! Thank you!
One of my go-to recommendations, if a friend hasn't heard of Ren.
Hunger❤
So this is the result of Ren getting so hungry that he ate all the flows until they started overflowing and he spat them back out on this fire track 😂

You guys are great. I'll definitely watch every Ren reaction you got. You should listen to Loco soon.
It’s in Brighton and that’s Ren beatboxing as well
Get 'em!
It's amazing what people will do when they are hungry.
😂
And then you add the dark twisted comedy of the British like Monty python and boom you have our baby boi Ren YAYYYYYYYYY ❤❤❤❤❤
thank you for Rens day I wish you could do Rens week ❤❤
I’m not sure if you’ve been recommended these yet but his Love Music series is fun to listen to !!!! There’s 4 parts and if you listen in order you can hear his personality really come out
Ren is just awesome
Fun. Much love ❤️ Sue
Yeah. Zeitgeist, Peter Joseph, Jacques Fresco. All o dat.
Easter egg, Frankie Sinatra by the Avalanches
Such a fun flex!
LESSS GOOO
For the Zeitgeist... it pulls that curtain behind which the little man stands when operating "The Wizard"...
Yes,Zeitgeist!!!!😮
Did you guys watch Back on 74 first, then The Hunger? Or the other way around? Possibly the two most different vibes from one another! 🤯
The Hunger is my kicking ass and taking names song 🤣🔥🔥🔥

REN❤❤❤
He wrote thus 2015 when he was limited to his bedroom. Don't know if he did all the beats at that time.
Still one of the best Ren bits...
Ha... you guys......
The ending moves are also in animal
❤❤❤
Rensday!!!!
❤❤❤❤
Pretty sure he’s doing the beat boxing too
❤

Somehow, it doesn't surprise me that Huxley is in his list of influences. The others are more typical I feel, but Huxley is out there.
