I just love watching people's faces and seeing how they are affected by the twists and turns of the song and what emotions it brings up from them.

    This is just so dark but relatable to! I can relate to this because I’ve had Fibromyalgia for nearly 20 years now but only got a firm diagnosis 3 years ago! Anxiety and depression was terrible but I eventually realised that although my thoughts told me I was dying I wasn’t, after all the time I was like it I was still alive and kicking! During this long time I was given strong painkillers which didn’t work! It got to the point where the only place to go for pain relief was Fentanyl! I was lucky to realise that regardless of how strong they were they wouldn’t work so I went to my Doctor and told him I wanted to get off painkillers! He agreed with me and told me that he would help and also insist that the Pain clinic got me a formal diagnosis. It took me nearly 2 years to get off the painkillers, and get my formal diagnosis, now I can live with minimal medication and very little problems with anxiety and depression.
    Life goes on……

      Also, follow his journey. He was misdiagnosed for nearly a decade while Lyme disease ran rampant through his body. Doctors diagnosed him with ME/CFS and dosed him with psychotropic meds that he didn't need while refusing to take his pain seriously. They tried to convince him it was all in his head and treated him as an attention seeker. They denied him retesting and the hallucinations and delusions he was having only reinforced their convictions that it was all mental illness. He suffered a psychotic break due to their brushing off his needs. He was finally diagnosed properly with lyme disease and got stem cell transplants and is receiving other treatment in Canada. However, the damage the lyme disease caused to his brain and nerve sheaths may be permanent.
      His courage and intellect and utter motivation is amazing. Only exceeded by his love and loyalty. His talent is unmitigated and unmatched and is growing every day as he pushes his own boundaries and widens his already immense capacity.
      His goals to also wake the world up and open our eyes about greed and politics and the damage it does. He's succeeding.
      Seriously, though, watch him. He's going to wake up the world, and we can only hope it isn't too late.
      There's a reason he's blowing up all over the internet! ❤

I've watched probably 100 or more reactions to it and feel it every time. Rens work is amazing and he profoundly affects everyone it seems. Do more Ren, pleaase. Watching your face throughout the song almost caused me to cry once again! lol! Beautiful!

    Hi. In my opinion, it is great to rewind a few seconds when you pause to react. it helps with getting back into the flow. Also great that you didn't bother with captions. they don't mix well with Ren at all. Not only are they confusing but they give punchlines away and in some of Ren's work this is crucial. leave the timing and punchlines to Ren, not captions.
    "I don't know what's happening right now" That's ok, Ren is happening🙂
    Loved your reaction, by the way, it was well worth a like and subscribe from me. So, welcome to Renworld, Bardcore. This lad is one of the most interesting and engaging artists that it has been my pleasure to bump into in my 60 years. his fan base is growing and is very diverse in it's make up. all of us it seems to me are mostly helpful and supportive of each other and it has been really pleasing to interact with almost all of the ones I've encountered.
    Good luck with your channel. be yourself and you'll be great, don't go chasing likes.

    If you can think and speak normally after watching Hi Ren for the first time, there's something wrong with you.
    I think you're also going to love Ren's duets with Chinchilla (another great artist you may not have heard of): 'Chalk Outlines' and 'How To Be Me' (watch the 'live' versions), and as someone else already told you, the Tale of Jenny and Screech (Full Version!) is another 'experience'.

    This is the kind of artistry that gives "broken" people hope. Ren, through this performance piece, has become to a lot of people exactly what he stated in the song, "...the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on the rope". So powerful, so impactful. The song structure itself is incredible. It starts off as a battle between his positive (Angel) and negative (Demon) aspects, the negative then makes an overpowering last ditch effort to reign supreme, tearing free and trying to take control, but ultimately fails as the final act, being the "God" aspect, emerges Triumphant, though still acknowledging and accepting that it will ALWAYS be a battle because we are all "a coin with 2 different sides". It's a beautifully cathartic and raw musical masterpiece. Ren is truly special. Welcome to the Ren rabbit-hole, it's a trip worth taking. This was the 4th take he did and yes, it was done live. Wait until you hear some of his other stuff, especially his storytelling ("The Tale of Jenny & Screech"). You haven't even touched the breadth of this young man's talent yet.
    The pig character (imo) represents the doctors and therapist who have essentially butchered him for years through their misdiagnosis. It's the system that focuses on peddling more pills than on genuinely trying to help to fix broken/ill people, caring more about profit than individual health. The bastardization of the hippocratic oath. He literally thought he was going insane because he was told repeatedly that the pain and symptoms he was experiencing were all in his head (psychosomatic). He had reached a point where he literally resigned himself to dying before he reached 30. Turns out he had Lyme's disease the whole time and it ran rampant through his system for 10 years, even to the point of causing brain damage. Ironically, if Ren hadn't gone through what he has, would he have ever made the art he has? There's no question that his suffering has shaped his music and now he's finally getting the recognition he undoubtedly deserves. I've said it before, I'll say it again, Ren is special.

    Scroll through TH-cam and you'll see so many reviews of this song by MDs, Psychologists, singers, voice coaches, and even a Neurologist. NOT ONE was left unaffected or dry-eyed. I'm a 74 yr. old man who has watched this 20 times and still tears up at the end. Ren has been bedridden for 1/2 of his life and still needs daily treatments at the hospital after his stem cell transplant. This song is a true reenactment of what Ren has gone through and still struggles with although he's come a long way in his fight to get well.

    Nothing wrong with you. Ren just has a way of connecting with your emotions. He shares his life and struggles. He definitely helps so many of us connect and not feel as alone. As someone that battles with the mental darkness, listening to Ren and watching others like yourself react to him, makes me feel more connected. You can watch other’s reactions and be like, “ yes, they get it too”. I am a huge Ren fan but it’s been a while since I watched a reaction to his Hi Ren video. Thank you for your reaction. You have at least one new follower now. Enjoy the ride and welcome to a whole new community. ❤

    Ren's an inspiration, not a bad song in his decade long catalogue. He's reaching so many people this year. His storytelling genre we call Bardcore. Watch the full thirteen minute 'Tale Of Jenny & Screech' (three videos including 'Violets Tale') to see what I mean. Then try some of his street performances with his old band The Big Push, such as ' I Shot The Sheriff mashup', then some of his rap like Genesis, The Hunger, Losing It. Plus dozens more like Why My Woman, Bongo Bong, Sick Boi, the list is huge. Welcome to the Reniverse 😊

    This performance speaks deeply to so many people, but especially to anyone who has had serious (physical as well as mental health struggles) and to anyone involved in creative expression.
    Ren struggled for many years with pain and fatigue from Lyme disease that was mis-diagnosed and given the wrong medications. This led to psychosis, on top of pre-existing mental health struggles. He's getting reparative therapy in Canada right now, but it takes several months of being focused on the treatments.

    Video was one take (out of 4 done). Music was done live (sweetened in post, of course) as well. This guy has an amazing musical and emotional range - from hiphop to folk/busking to blues. One of the most creative artists to come along in decades. If you want to see a counterpoint to this 'raw' piece, but also with the emotional content, take a reaction to his song "Su!cide"...... illustrates not only his songwriting/performance, but his engineering/production skills. Also the video makes use of cutting edge AI art.... bring a box of tissues on set if you react.

Rent is a genius, an artist, a performer, a musician, and as you come to find out one of the most humble and big hearted people on the planet!! he’s truly a once, in a generation, musical, lyrical artist. He plays every genre of music at the masters level. He plays every instrument at the masters level. He sings, he raps he produces he reaches on beats. You can see how good he is at the performing arts…. His music has lyrics. They’re all substance, and he is all about affecting the world in a positive way.! I’ve listen to most of his catalog hello stuff seems to come out of the woodwork deeper I go, and I have not heard one song that wasn’t a piece of art like good like really good!! I’m sure people have suggested the next songs for you to watch such as chalk outline’s, the Tale of Jenny and screech, but I’d like to recommend you watch one of my personal favorites, and I have a hunch you’ll love it as well, … a masterpiece call “Dominos”. 🔥🔥

Keep that in mind when you watch Ren's content as he likes to produce stuff that way. Also Ren produces/plays/writes everything. The two major influences on Ren are his illness issues and the suicide of his friend Joe when Ren was 21ish. Finally do ensure you do the complete Jenny/Screech/Violet Tale which is approx one 15min vid

    Ren is therapy for so many from one song he helps so many people open up in ways therapists struggle to do in person.
    First time i watched Hi Ren i had a panic attack but thought i needed to watch it again so i watched someone reacting to it
    that was the best thing i could do i have watched many times since. One thing i think about this song is it needs to be seen
    by every one even in schools after a certain age, because how many children kill themselves because of the negativity
    towards them from nasty comments and bullying to them believing what is said. I went through hell, bullied all through
    school to the point i attempted suicide twice, and to many issues in my life since then I am a recovering alcoholic 11 years
    clean I suffer PTSD and other health issues so the majority of bad days over good is high, if this bullying had been dealt
    with i may have had a reasonable life not the existence i have to deal with now

    Welcome to YT and to the the RENagades crew. Nice to have you along with us.
    What everyone says about Ren and his music is true. He touches something in all of us. Like so many others here, I have fallen deep into the rabbit hole. It is certainly a roller coaster ride. Full of ups, downs, thrills, twists and turns. His catalogue mirrors life. It isn’t always up or down, and mostly moves in many directions all at once. I think that Ren speaks not only to us, but for us all.
