Great reaction, check this out. Ren posted this in his comments, Ren: "My favorite thing about this video, watch the countdown for the crossing behind me at 0:57 then watch me unintentionally stop at 0... bit of unintentional serendipity gets me every time"
"Onion bars." You nailed it to describe it. This is my first exposure to Nas. Now I'm looking at his music, background, family history. Ren is spreading seeds for musical fruit to grow. And he's spreading good will for the charm and glow of the city he's in for treatments, Calgary.
Thanks! You picked up so quickly on bars that others (including myself) didn't. I love Nas and didn't especially like this at first listen, but after about 3 times, I realized the complexities (lyrical, social, scientific, economical, and respectful -- and of course how they all intertwine). Then I felt like an idiot. He did some justice. Your reaction was on point. Thanks again.
I’ve learned so much from the different reaction videos. REN pays homage to, so many artists in this flow. We have the beat Halftime, we have Big L with the China without Rice setup, Big L also dropped a like Mike quote for Jordan but REN drops one for Tyson. But if you miss hear day like night it almost sounds “Play like Mike” then Mike with a ear to bite. We have the unintended perfect timing of the crosswalk timer in the background, he steps in the street at 10 and stops on 0 for his Pie Rats tie in. Waviest guy is a NAS play as he once was lil wave or something like that. The atom breakdown was homage to someone else. A old school NYC reactor caught that one when he basically gave a NAS class at the beginning of how this beat came about and who was involved. We have a Pie reference on Pi day, the drop of this song 3.14 or March 14th. The school bus also look’s unintended but it just seems so planned that the School bus arrives exactly at the right time to carry the greats to their Rest in peace word play. Reaction community gets a shout out in the physics Atom set, at the end he says the “Reaction supersize’s me” REN has lots of love for the reaction community that has helped him grow independently. The flip on New York State of Mind “Sleep is the cousin of death” I think there may even be more Easter Eggs in this drop which has happened just before Easter to note. I would love to know if other people caught other special tidbits! So fun.
Nice, think I heard that reactor. Also the 'EJECT' at 2:10, half time to the originals 4:20. Then black to the finish at 2:13. Some say it's a LA reference, but I'll go with ZIP (11)213 which is Crown Heights, Brooklyn, where NAS was born.
Ren says he may never reach nas level in this. But , let's be honest that's not the case and the reason I say that is bc the greatness list is speculation at best bc we all have our own taste. Illmatic is hands down one of the best albums ever released period and those that have heard it know why. Ren is a master at using his pen just like nas. Love the reaction bro as always

I knew it was pi day, and I caught those bars. But did he really plan this for a pi day release?
