Subbing for more REN 🖤
🔥🔥🔥
Welcome to the Renaissance! Ren is my favourite artist of all time. I say artist because he is a multifaceted diamond! From singing (all styles) to rapping (bars/flows/schemes for days), Bardcore (story telling) beatbox, makes his own beats, scatting and a multi instrumentalist (guitars, bass, drums, melodica and more). On top of that he is the most beautiful human being inside and out who has been through and continues to go through absolute hell.
Ren is 33 from Anglesey, Wales originally but spent most his life in Brighton, England. He has been very ill for years, at one point being completely bed ridden. He was misdiagnosed for years, being told he was bipolar, had M.E and more and was prescribed medications that made him worse and ended up in psychosis. It turns out Ren had Lyme disease which has caused havoc on his body. He’s been living in Calgary, Canada all year receiving intense medical treatment for his brain damage and mast cell activation disorder amongst other things that were caused by the Lyme disease.
He started off making beats at 12 and selling CDs then moved on to busking. He was part of a band called Trick The Fox and was signed to Sony but they didn’t renew the contract after his health deteriorated. He then started The Big Push. They went on hiatus the end of last year after 5 years partly due to his move to Canada and also because the other members are also soloists and were moving around too.
I have a list of songs to check out of all styles. Obviously this is no where near everything but gives you places to start. 🖤

@@stevecody9878 thanks 🖤
Waow 😺 This is nice, Tobii!
I saw you on a live stream the other day and it looks like you're one of Ren's superfans! 👍
Do you mind if I copy & paste this to share with other Ren virgins?
I wouldn't take credit for it.
@@dannythedoodle ahh did you? Was that Low Budget Ent? I mod there. Yeah go for it. I have one for The Big Push too that I’ll paste below for you 🖤
THE BIG PUSH
🥁🎸🎤🎵
REN (Welsh) - vocals, acoustic, electric, bass mostly
Romain Axisa (French) - vocals, acoustic, electric, bass mostly
Gorran Kendall (English) - vocals, acoustic, electtic, bass mostly
Glenn Chambers (Irish) - drums mostly
The Big Push formed in 2017. Initially being Ren, Romain and Gorran with Glenn joining later to play drums.
Gorran and Romain met busking, Romain and Ren then met through Facebook while Ren was trying to find a flat mate. They would all busk together and Glenn would sit in as drummer while also playing bass with another friend Rafa. They then decided to become a band and would take to the streets of Brighton and also created masterpieces of their own.
They played numerous gigs including a sold out tour of the U.K. and also released a 6 track EP called “Can Do Will Do”.
They busked together for the last time on 14th December 2022 and played their final gig at the Brighton Dome a short while later. Having to go on hiatus due in part to Ren moving to Canada for medical treatment and their lives going in different directions. Although they remain good friends and Ren and Romain have mentioned wanting to play together again.

@@TobiiRheaStarr Aye, it was LBE.
Nice one, thanks. Not for self promo or owt... just to help newbies to 'do Ren properly' 😄
The greatest thing about all these different people from around the world reactin to Ren is that theres always conversation about the substance of the words, its not just "yeah, that was bangin"
Think how many lives Ren has saved, either by someone watching his work directly and seeing a way out, or just saying out loud "That's where *I am* !".... or by someone realising they have a friend in trouble and "making that call"?
@@rogerstarkey5390 count me as one
He woke me up, that's for sure. He made me step outside my own box, and look at humanity as a collective whole. Music is a wonderfully connective language 😊
Someone recently dug up a clip from years ago of Ren describing his musical genre. With a smile, he says “rhythmalogical-melodically-hip-hoppy-folky-bluesy-shoezy-rastaman mashup”.
What a description..Precisely 😊...
A modern bard aka minstrel ❤
Genuine people recognizing a genuine artist.. loved your reaction, subscribed
Ren has a catalogue that will blow you away. From hiphop to reggae to blues and so much more. Enjoy the journey fellas 😎
it's a damned fine rabbit hole Bruv 😊
It's a very shallow rabbit hole
@@mindyalexander3357 you clearly haven't looked into it. There's no artist ever with such a broad spectrum of music. Rock pop rap indie, blues reggae, he's got everything in his catalogue.
@@geofthompson3844 there's no such thing as genre music that's just bulshit that's been feed you either you like it or you don't no matter what genre they say it is . And none of his other music moved me just this one song and that's still wonderful
@@mindyalexander3357 you sound fun 🤭
Ren is a generational talent. A literary and musical genius. For me there's been no one like him since David Bowie.
Ren has been on the brink of death for so many years now, you'll find he don't have the same brik wall of shame as most of us. I have seen this man cry more than any other man I know in my real life. It has only made me more attracted to him. He is smart, sincere and a creative genius, but most of all love. But also a cocky, cheeky MF, whos a right laugh.
Have fun in the rabbit hole of Ren!
Ren can rap rap when he wants to. I think you guys will enjoy the Ren rabbit hole.
he's an alright rapper, he's a great artist though.
Yeah man, "loosing It", "Genisis", "Loco", "Seven Sins", "Animal Flow" and many others, he can flow switch with the best of them.
It depends on who you talk to and what kind if rap they listen to. Many, many reactors think he's a great rapper. He has crazy flows, complex rhyme schemes & lyrical content. He's a very technical rapper. It's just that many don't get his bars and his hip hop is very diverse. Every song has some meaning even if it's a fun track that's not deep. There's always many Easter eggs and obscure references that are like inside jokes.
In "Losing It" he raps over an EDM track by Fisher.
@@user-br1cm5gr7e he’s an insane rapper!
REN is an artist, and it’s nice to listen to you guys appreciate his art. Some reactors say “ oh, man… I’m speechless. “ and sign off. Keep on putting out quality content.
The snake, the rat, the cat, the dog.. How you gonna see 'em when you livin in the fog" Those Damien joints were BANANAS!! I'm around y'all age, but I never connected it back to X til y'all said that. Y'all are so right!! I've heard this Ren joint so many times but didn't think of that. That first DMX album is one of my favorites of all time. Appreciate y'all!!✌️❤️🫡
All this.
Hey dude on the left, don't diminish what you’ve been through because it's not "as bad" as what someone else has been through. Compassion isn't a zero sum game; there's as much room in people's hearts to feel empathy for your self doubt as there is to feel sympathy for someone else's trauma or mental struggles. Love from the UK. Keep up the awesome reactions x
Hey guys! A Renegade here, just found your channel and I loved the way you immediately “got it” with this masterpiece. I’m off to check out your other Ren reactions and then to find the DMX Damien stuff. Thanks for supporting Ren and for sharing your knowledge and perspectives. Subbed!
I have been watching people react to this song for over a year now. You are the first ones to bring up DMX and "Damien" that I have seen! Everyone brings up Eminem or NF but, I haven't heard anyone mention DMX. Thanks for remembering him. ❤
Excellent reaction!
Ren found an "abandoned" building and did a few takes then the owner of the property showed up and gave them just half hour to finish up! Thats even more impressive ❤
I've seen so many of your reactions but I feel I've discovered more about your 3 with this reaction. Love hearing about your current creative struggles. Your honesty is helping so many people! Much love, keep reacting bros
Rens music always gets people talking you defo need to check out Rens songs “Genesis” “The Hunger” and of course “the tale of Jenny and screech full version” the Ren rabbit hole is deep and varied so enjoy the ride
So I found y’all‘s channel because I’m a Ren fan. That’s why I started watching a couple of your videos. I subscribed to the channel because y’all’s commentary on the videos is deep and meaningful. Y’all really listen to what’s going on and give great thoughts on what y’all are hearing. I can’t wait to see y’all go down the rabbit hole. I will be here for it.
Same here I’m a 62 yo white boy from central Illinois. But my go to is rap. I have a large collection of Rapp vinyl Mac Miller DMX common pharaoh monch ,Tech N9ne, atmosphere de La Soul Brother Ali most def 2Pac biggie ready to die grieves mad Lib. I said all that to say I guess I’m out of pocket. Ye old droog JAY-Z Nas grouch and Eli, Oliver Hart evidence blueprint A&E ideas and abilities OutKast Speakerbox of love below that’s not even half of them, but you get my point I have come to the point in my life to believe music is music whether it’s sang wrapped thump on some spoons as long as it has a message sorry it’s so long. You’re doing a fabulous job o Kendrick I love J. Cole not so much lol.
Y'all got an immediate 👍 for whispering and not talking over the track mad respect for that ✌️❤️
Yes! Same
Thanks guys
Brighton lad does good.
Some luck ❤ lucky enough to catch him busking in Brighton Town.
Love your reaction
The genre fight is what I'm down for 🤣🤣 If you think he switched genres here, you're in for a ride! He prefers 'Bardcore' and welcome to the Rabbit Hole that is Ren, the genre-bender!
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. Even 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.
Btw- if you happen to listen to some of his other stuff, like his "Money Game" trilogy, you'll find that the line "She sells sea shells on the seashore" is actually a call back. It hits a bit different when you know that. He does this in a number of his songs.
I have been on the Ren train for a while now. I love genuine reactions to this performance. Thank you for your candid response and great reaction!👊🏼💯
RENs mother was a music teacher. Clearly a gifted talent to hand down.
Ren literally has a different genre for damn near ever song he releases, he does produce all his own music/beats, and shares so many different messages and topics in his music. A couple examples you might enjoy:
Genesis - Hard Beats/good rap
Hunger - fast rap
Killing It - Fun wildly fast rap
Power - positive message rap
Chalk Outlines (Live) and How to Be Me - high quality singing voice
Down on the Beat - Fun/funny EDM rap
Lost All Faith - almost a rock/rap
Loco and 7 Sins - wildness
What You Want - Beastie Boys homage
The Tale of Jenny and Screech (full) - the most theatrical (one man type play) storytelling track every heard
Money Game part 1,2,&3 - an incredibly insightful outlook on todays human life
And the list goes on and on
Also you check out “The Big Push” his old band that play some of the dopest covers ever -
I Shot the Sherriff/Jamrock/Hip-Hop (pure regea feel)
Wade in the Water/Nina Simone (1940-50 blues)
War Pigs (Black Sabbath tribute melody)
all are some of my favorites
Many Chao - Bongo Bong
FatBoy Slim - Praise You (Vietnam 70’s almost bluegrass vibes)
In my opinion, I would check out “Genesis”, “Power”, and the “I Shot the Sheriff”….in whatever order you desire
Thank you for reacting to Ren. He is the best musical artist of my lifetime and everyone needs to hear him.
You gotta check out “the hunger”, “genesis”, “seven sins”, “illest of our time”, and “wicked ways”. Those are some of Ren’s rap songs.
they aint gon' like that rap shit homie. you seen their channel?
❤ It will be fun watching y'all discover the many things Ren is capable of and his talented group of friends!!!
Great reaction guys...appreciate u checking out our sick boi xx looking forward to ur next Ren reaction!
Love all of Ren and The Big Push, just subbed as I look forward to loads more ! Also really enjoyed your reaction, my 1011th of Hi Ren!
I’ve watched prolly 100 reactor vids to Hi Ren and this is the first time I heard Damian mentioned! 👍
Great reaction , hip hop has never been my thing so hearing people who come from that background connect with the same feelings Ren has me feeling , shows that we are connected as humans by way more than divides us ❤
I think yall would LOVE his newer song, seven sins (official lyric video) its still a continuation of his mental and physical journey and shows a bit more insight on some of the things he went through 😊💜💜
My current favourite song - it is a lyrical masterpiece
Bro. I been watching these all over TH-cam. Finally someone mentioned Damien
Awesome review…you totally captured and conveyed the message of the song. U guys rock!
Great reaction to this true GENIUS... I'm sure you'll agree with that description the more you watch of Ren.
Liked & subscribed in anticipation of you reacting to more Ren
Cheers lads 👍🍻
Oh damn, first conversation you have and I'm in! Love listening to you guys talk
Oh Ren does "bragalious" rap too! The Hunger, Illest of our Time, Wicked Ways etc. He also does cheeky pop songs, EDM rap, beautiful ballads, rock, punk .... I haven't heard any country from Ren, but I wouldn't be surprised lol
Thank you so much for this reaction... sometimes we forget and watching this reminded me....
Subbed for this. The actual discussion over this was so good and I really want to see what you guys do with some of this other stuff. Great react and insight into the creative and emotional process behind writing music.
Dude on the right definitely looked like he had a good mental breakthrough at the end of the song. I sat for a few minutes in silence with my mind racing when I finished watching Hi Ren for the first time as well.
Ren had his inspiration from Bob Marley, he even learned to play guitar from TH-cam videos, his band did -- The Big Push - I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop live. 🥰
I just subscribed. You guys are right on point. Welcome to the world of REN
Love this reaction! This is an amazing artist. Wow! I loved how you just shook your head at the end in disbelief. 😂. Awesome.
You guys definitely get it. Yall have true discernment. Great reaction ❤
ren is beyond awesome
It was filmed in the same room as Sick Boi (they added the sink and the mirror for that video)
Great reaction. Thank you. You guys get it. Respect for your takes on this piece.
"It's a long way down into the rabbit hole, Alice"
You guys get it man, respect to you both. Through pain, you can find relation. Some people just say it differently.
Also shoutout to you guys opening up and keeping it real appreciate you guys having that conversation
Great conversation guys, really looking forward to hearing your opinions of his other stuff, his catalogue goes back a decade or more. Enjoy.
Thank you for sharing Ren and thank you for sharing ❤ xx
Appreciated your reaction. Great job 👏
This is on me but I didn't expect such a perceptive analysis of this track from you guys. Massive respect.
What a great reaction 👍 subbed, excited to see your journey down the rabbit hole. You're in for a ride boyz 😉👍
Keep in mind, this was done live! Imaging the pure skill it takes to play the guitar like that and rap/sing back and forth like that live! Ren is a f*cking genius!
The audio is one take, but the video is from multiple.
Great reaction! Subbed for more Ren. Discovering Ren is a wild, fantastic ride. Enjoy 😊
Looking forward to any additional Ren reactions you do. I think he is a musical genius!
Thoroughly enjoyed this discussion guys!
Just found your channel through REN and yall are great. Genuine conversation around the song/reaction. Subbed and tuning in.
Great reaction guys, cant wait to watch you go down the Ren rabbit hole, it's an awesome ride, new sub here ❤ from the UK
Well done for being in the very few (I'm over 500 reactors to Hi Ren now) who instantly understood the musical finale, both sides are needed to make the music true. Incorporate both and try to chill!!
I can’t wait for you to hear him rap rap. And also sing sing. He is my inspiration to move beyond my sadness. RENaissance.
doesn't matter who you are, this guy has resonated with so many people on some level. subbed to catch more reactions for the man. i would suggest Genesis next.
Very insighful analysis, I enjoyed that. It's kind-of fun that you were talking about demos because Ren has albums "Demos I (do not share)" and "Demos (do not share) II." Also, if you're interested, Ren's releasing a new song this Thursday (2/15). You're invited to the premiere!
I gotta say, I can't wait to hear this project!
Love you guys! First time hangin' with you. (Subscribed) Much love ❤Sue
Good luck finding a track by Ren that you say, “it was just ok” 😂
Really enjoyed your reactions and conversation about the music.
Wow guys ... great reaction. I love how this relates to your lives ... and similar artists music :)
I swear this is the fastest 9 min I have ever listened to this dude is super talented!
If I may make 2 suggestions to a Ren song y’all would enjoy and see Ren in his rapping bag. First one is Hunger. Second one is Wicked Ways
YES! I've seen hundreds of reactions to Hi Ren, and I've been waiting for someone to call out Damien. THANK YOU! 😻
Much love
From STHLM, Sweden
Appreciate that 💯
1st time checking out your channel with this reaction & really enjoyed it!
Thank you we really appreciate that 💯
Great job gentlemen! Appreciate your observations and insights regarding your personal lives. Strap in, the Ren journey is a long one and I’m not kidding when I say that being a part of his community has made me a better person. Kinder, more aware, more inspired to be creative. Hopeful even. Ren has a series that he calls “retakes” and he has a new one coming Thursday. Hope to see you in the premiere!
This is the same room as Sick Boi, at the time he was shooting these videos Guerilla style, and this was the basement of his friend’s apartment building. He filmed a couple other videos in different parts of the building which look much different. But they had no budget, it’s literally his friends doing the filming/lighting and Ren did the video editing and all the audio editing.
I really enjoyed this, thank you. New subscriber here for your Ren reactions. Oh and it was funny you said that about demos, Ren has a double album of demos
Great Channel guys, The Ren algorithm brought me here. You HAVE to do Money Game Part 3 next. It's a true cinematic, musical masterpiece.
Shout out to the DMX reference. First time I've heard anyone mention that, and I didn't think of it either, but good call. Can't wait to see y'all dig into this dude some more, cause he has so many more faces, but it's all the same guy
There’s a larger shadow on the darker side on the floor.
And when it comes to genres, he calls this bardcore. But he has no limit to genre’s, as another reactor (BP) calls him, the last genre bender.
He used to do live street performances with a band called The Big Push that are great, on their own. Definitely worth watching some of those vids too. "I Shot the Sheriff" mashup is great, then his work with Chinchilla "Chalk Outlines" live version is entirely different, and his solo rap "Losing It", "Genesis", "Sick Boi', and so many more. Such a talented artist. Oh yeah, he also does his own beats. You’re in for a treat on this ride.
New Info for me to check out, thanks for sharing.
Wow, to be in any conversation comparing anyone to Damien by DMX is a humongous compliment just in itself. Top tier song by a top tier Artist may he R.I.P.
Not that it really matters but this is not a one take video but four takes and some hand held stuff edited together to create what we see here. Ren has some great one take videos and I’m sure this originally was planned to be one but due to shooting constraints (they got kicked out) they never got the take in one go. Money Game pt1 took them over 180 takes and several days shooting to get the single take.
Absolutely 💯🔥reaction and breakdown. Loved it.
This is one of the most anticipated Ep that y’all have put out…and y’all ain’t let me down…Q keep yourself mindful…meditation helps greatly bro..
✌🏽🫶🏽🙏🏽
growth. learning to enjoy things you didnt before.
Thanks, guys. A fresh perspective is awesome always.
Ren will push you to wanna take your own stuff to another level. That's why i like him so much. PROF is another that does that to me
I've seen quite a few of these reviews and this is the first time I'd heard the comparison to DMX/Damien. That had not occurred to me. I've not heard those songs in a while, so I'll dig them up and take a listen. Thanks for the reaction and looking forward to more content!
Really enjoyed you guys Thankyou
Welcome to the Rennaissance @AlmostJokingPod and 🙏 thank you ❤❤ for your empathetic and insightful Ren reaction! I liked 👍 it and subscribed 🔔.
Ren has got an awesome back catalogue, and I am looking forward to you discovering it. So what do you want to see and hear next? A ballady thing w/guitar? 🎸🧑🎤🧑🎤💊⚪ Ren X Chinchilla - Chalk Outlines (live). Rap? 🐟&🍟🌈🚢🌊 Genesis. Rappetyrap? 🐷 The Hunger. Fun stuff? 👯👯👯👯❤🎶 Love Music. Raggae? 🎸🎸🎸🥁 The Big Push - I Shot The Sheriff/Road To Zion/Hip Hop (red suspenders). Hard beats? 🦁🐷🦍 Animal Flow. Goofy madness? 🚲🐺🦍 Losing It! (FISHER Rap). More EDM & Rap? 🥁 Down On The Beat. Masterly storytelling horrendously sad stories? ❎❎🎸🎺🏥🔪 The Tale of Jenny and Screech (full 13 min version). Another great one-take storytelling short movie? 🚗🔫 Murderer or 🎸💰🐚 Money Game! Deep thoughts? ☁ Dear God, Meaning or Dominoes. Trippy electronica? 🎹💊 Diazepam. Souly-folksy Rap? "Do you Believe?". Bluesy? "Hold On!" or 🚗 Everybody Drops. More singing? 🧑🎤 Humble. Acapella singing? 💰🐚 Money Game Part 2 (Live) or Loco. Acapella freestyle battle-Rap? 👑 Dumb King Come. Harmonies? 🦢 The Big Push - Swan Song. Crazy Punk? 🐰 The Big Push - XBox Marijuana. A song in French language? 🥖 French Song. Radio-hits? 🔥 Fire or 🍟 Uninvited. Have great fun!
There really is only one thing the renegades prefer reactors NOT to do, it is to start the Tales trilogy at the wrong end (Violet's Tale) because it is the resolution to The Tale of Jenny and Screech, best to start with ❎❎Jenny, and the 13 min-long version.
IT is a live one shot style video. IT was shot 4 times and if i remember right, they made one cut in the video, so there is one part from one take and another part (the talking part i believe) from another take but they are live.
