Great reaction! Ren was an upcoming artist and was signed by Sony when he was younger but he started getting sick and was misdiagnosed many times, doctors told him he was schizophrenic and gave him multiple pills that just made his mental health deteriorate. Later he was diagnosed with lyme disease and had a stem cell treatment to get better. That first line bitten by a tick boy, stem cell poster boy is a killer one. I feel once you know a bit of his background this song ties it up really well and it adds a whole another level to it. Check Hi Ren and What you want
Man that's horrible! I'm glad he's doing well! Thanks for telling me!
@@RoarTheRapper yeah, being undiagnosed for a decade, that Lyme Disease was allowed to ravage his body and brain, causing constant inflammation in his whole body, which also caused him to suddenly have allergic reactions to almost all foods so he was severely restricting his diet, but out of necessity. Unbeknownst to him, he’d also stopped recovering from viruses and infections properly but instead his body was harboring some of those invaders for all those years. His body was attacking itself, his immunity was down to nothing basically. To add insult to injury, he was being given loads of anti anxiety and anti psychotic meds that were not treating the root cause of his problems, because they didn’t really believe there was a treatable physical root cause for his mountain of ever increasing problems. They told him it was all in his head. However, those meds only served to worsen the anxiety, depression and psychotic episodes due to him still constantly being in pain while being heavily medicated for what they told him was wrong with him. So walking around either severely suffering mentally and physically or mentally numb from the constant stream of meds all these doctors were throwing at him, but still being in such awful physical pain. Being put through all of that for a decade, while a silent disease was ravaging his health, that all resulted in some degree of brain damage. I’m thoroughly impressed he even survived. I’m unsure he knows his own strength. He’s seeing a specialist in Canada that is doing daily IV treatments (Lyme disease treatment and nutrition, vitamins and minerals, to get his body in tip top physical shape and hopefully expanding his diet again) for at least 6 months or maybe longer depending on how he responds to those treatments in getting his body in tip top shape and hopefully his body will start accepting more foods without an allergic reaction) and all the associated treatments he’ll need to address all the other physical and mental health issues caused by the Lyme disease being left untreated for so long.
@@NativeNYerChicHK I really hope the treatments in Canada will help him. I feel super protective of him now! Crazy, I know. Signed, a former NYChick! 😎
Hi Ren is a must watch, would love to hear your thoughts on it. If you want to go down the rabbit hole even further, The Tale of Jenny & Screech is also amazing.
Jap, After then money game 1&2...
@@paddythefly Agreed.
Make sure it's the (full) version th-cam.com/video/TYAnqQ--KX0/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=Ren
Definitely check out "Hi Ren". It pairs well with "Sick Boi" both visually and thematically, but is a complete different style of rap, and one of the best overall artistic performances I've seen in ages from any musician. It's the video that really grabbed the attention of a lot of people. I've become a big fan of all of his different styles: solo rapping and masterpieces of storytelling such as "The Tales of Jenny and Screech" (with the excellent "Violet's Tale" pulling it all together at the end), and the rock-focused performances with his band the Big Push. If you want to focus on rap, after "Hi Ren", check out "The Hunger," "Money Game" (part one for a cool performance video, and part two for a studio-focused song), "Genesis," "What You Want" for fun Beastie Boys vibes (not a cover), or his "retakes". A lot of his solo stuff is rap-focused, but he's a tremendous guitar player and singer, too.
@Steven Bunn Agree on all the above.
A track on my playlist this morning, It's Alright, is a more gentle ballad, and I was teary listening having learned so much about Ren since Hi Ren.
Just the most versatile, real artist, open and raw and vulnerable. Words really aren't enough.
What I take away from the message Ren is sharing through his art here is the experiences many people endure when they are chronically sick trying to find solutions within a failing healthcare system. I know this story well from my own experiences.
In summary....from my perspective.
He was clearly sick with a treatable condition. This wasn't diagnosed so he became chronically ill with multiple complications, including pain, psychosis and inability to function in everyday life. The professionals he saw focused on his mental health rather than recognising the devestation a parasitic infection caused. The judgement, stigma, dismissiveness, trivialising symptoms and lack of genuine investment in finding out what was wrong and treating it appropriately, is enough to send anyone over the edge. The mind body connection is overplayed, so access to the right care is blocked, leaving him sick, getting sicker without the right treatment. The Pigs are perhaps those who will seek to take your money, rather than helping.
Ren puts into his art the experiences of so many who are failed by the systems that are supposed to be there to provide healthcare. His work is pure brilliance and artistic genius!
As someone that’s been in pain management since 04 (botched double knee surgery), got slammed with a handful of some really awful diseases and side effects, this song hits hard. I’m still new to the Ren rabbit hole, but art hits in ways I’ve rarely run into. His openness, and transparency, is just phenomenal.
This is the first reaction of yours I’ve seen, and I really enjoyed it. It’s obvious (besides you mentioning it =) you’ve been through somethings as well, so best wishes on your health and I’m looking forward to catching up on your content.
Thanks for sharing Daniel, and I’m glad you enjoyed my content!
You have one hell of a journey ahead diving deeper into Ren. His art is incredible. Hi Ren should probably be the next port of call, but I'll also throw Money Game 1 and 2 and The Hunger in the ring here, plus the tale of Jenny and Screech (full). Really, there are no misses here. Enjoy the ride.
Love Your reaction! Ren have lyme disease. You need to check more from him. Hi Ren, Chalk outlines, The tale of Jenny and the Screech.. This was only the begining.
Naa, They all talking bout Hi Ren. the most amazing song since Bohemian Rhapsody. It is changing the was a lot of people are thinking. Might make ya cry
Wow, what a great analysis of this song! My 5-year-old has autism. Currently I learn and learn more and more how to understand her better. I was depressed when I found out but now I see it's not the end of the world. Thank you for showing me how smart, brilliant and coping autistic adults can be. You can't even tell they struggle with socialising. Thank you
Thanks for the comprehensive analysis of this masterpiece. If you're wondering where those background voices are coming from, this Bulgarian National Ensemble Philip Koutev "Bre Petrunko"
Thanks for letting me know and I’m glad you enjoyed!
Now that's how you do a reaction! Thank you. Would love to see you react to more of Ren's material.. I think you would love "Hi Ren", "Chalk Outlines", "Money Game 1 & 2). And then if you are up for something a bit different, "Jenny &Screech's Tale" (with Violet's tale at the end). It will blow your mind. Thanks again 💕
Rens Lyme disease was misdiagnosed for around 10 years. So i feel this is about that, how he felt through it mentally and physically. He was treated for M. E, schizophrenia, bi polar ( i think) a whole load of other stuff, BEFORE they discovered it was Lymes disease. All of which has left him with long term issues/side effects , physically and mentally.
He was signed to Sony but all his health issues prevented him taking it up.
He's currently in Canda recieving treatment for MCAS. Im so happy people are picking up on his music. He deserves this and so much more!
Big love to Ren
Ren is a frickin musical genius.
I’m late to this reaction but thought I would start at the beginning of you reacting to REN. That was a great breakdown and analysis 🖤
Nice review, I’ve looked at your videos and have seen you haven’t covered Hi Ren, which precedes this video. It will explain a lot of things and is (as far as I’m concerned) his opus. It will explain a lot. Nice review and a very thoughtful analysis. Subbed.
Great reaction. Enjoy your journey down the Ren rabbit hole.
You have a knack for reacting to videos. Been watching people become fans of Ren's for the last 2 months. On to your next Ren reaction video.
His ‘Hunger’ is amazing rap. He pins the words at the top of Comment. New Sub.
Apart from the track interruptions (a small bugbear of mine ;) ), this is an insightful response to Sick Boi.
Welcome to the wild ride that is "Ren🧡"
I don't under stand people saying track interruptions. If you want to go and watch the real video. It's a reaction. When are people who react supposed to react to it if they can't pause it?
I feel like he always has something to say and his music just consumes him love it.
Just a genius...thank for reacting
He does have Lyme Disease. He said he was bed ridden for years from misdiagnosis, during which he was prescribed multiple meds that made him physically worse and have eventually psychosis issues, as well.
Really sad.
Cool track reaction. I really enjoyed your walk through. ❤
Great reaction. Yes he has Lyme disease.. He's really making it work for him though. Love his music.
💗💗💗Hi Ren, Money Game parts i&ii, triology Tales Of Jenny, Screetch & Violet, Chalk Outlines and many more...
I have Autism and yes lots of misunderstandings and hyper focus. Also GI issues all my life. Ren is telling our stories of the toxicity we had and still endure.
Always remember a cure isn't profitable. Treatments however,.
Nice job :)
To quote the Daoist sage, Taylor Swift, and her advice to young artists "never sign anything before you get a good entertainment lawyer."
React to CHALK OUTLINES by Ren and Chinchilla
Ren is an amazing artist. Would you also mind to react to Colicchie Drug addiction?, if you haven’t already heard it.
Your breakdown is phenomenal and i'm only 5min in. He was indeed bitten by a tick and has lymes disease, but was misdiagnosed for years.
They have me on buspirone for my anxiety. Take it twice per day as need. At least that is what the bottle says.
You really have to review Hi Ren
I just did! ^_^
Ren's problem was Lymes disease..... which probably got a chance to get hold before it was diagnosed ..and resulting in a long stay in care, bed bound.
Kids, don't go looking for ticks...Ren was probably already a potential genius before that interrupted him. x
..and snake oil is something that doesn't exist because snakes are slippery when totally dry.
Actually not started by negative thoughts. Is the negative FEEDBACK as the lyrics say.
I mean I can see that, but if you already have a negative mindset, you can take positive feedback and make it negative.
Instant sub. Great reaction . Definitely check Hi Ren out.
Appreciate it! Thanks!
Maybe I'm an outlier but I have never cared about money. I have good education but I just don't care. I live in a small apartment. Only thing I care about is being able to have enough money to cook myself a nice, tasty interesting meal.
It could also. E the medication that they put you on could makes thi gs actually worse cause some mental health problems looks like other more obvious issues. If they just assume you have the obvious problem and not do their research it could be very damaging to the real issue you actually have. As im sure a gang of people including ren knows about
