The amount of talent in that band blows me away. "Ren good" is the perfect description. I know Ren and the other guys in the Big Push are all cool with each other and they've collaborated a bunch since. I think they stopped playing together when Ren got really ill. I think Ren talks about it in a video. Super talented people and nice to see that they're just.. well.. nice.
Watch "Bongo-Bongo" Featuring Ren with Romain Axisa & Gorran Kendall just chilling on the roof-top! (the same rooftop that the "Murderer" video starts out with)! Super awesome Harmonies & Romain playing the Ukulele! All round Awesomness! 🙌🙌😊😊
Wow Abigirl. How You’ve grown nicely into the RENagades niche Awesome how interested you are in everything from the solo to the scatting. It’s already been mentioned I’m sure but you should check out ‘Power’ A real nice groove I think you’d enjoy.. Love your reaction and am enjoying your journey with great interest.
The last part of the mash-up isnt freestyle, its a song called Hip-Hop by Dead Prez. Love the reaction! This is probably my favorite Big Push performance
Oh Girl you pause anytime you durn well want to! We LOVE how into it you are and I can't WAIT til you get to Ren's Lyric Video "Uninvited" but be Careful, don't have anything Flammable around cause your Blushes might just start a FIRE! lol
@@Abigirl_Reacts LMFAO! Woman listen! Listen I blushed and went red on Uninvited. Trust me he will make you feel things on that one 🤣 Enjoy that when it comes 😂
The Big Push didn't break up as such. Ren knew he was going to Canada for months of treatment so already had his Sick Boi album songs ready for release, the drummer Glen went to live in Australia, Gorran went off touring around different countries busking, Romain stayed living in the UK and brought out his own solo album. As you watch more The Big Push you will realize they are all super talented musicians and singers. Romain has already played again with Ren when they did Money Game 2 live on UK tv show a few weeks ago. But he wasn't recognizable because he had a money sack on his head 😄
You got.... Ren, Romain Axisa - wild French guitarist, Goran Kendal on Base and Glenn Chambers on drums. They all play, sing and produce their own music. They went into War Pigs right after this awesome performance 😁👊 more rabbit holes to venture hehe. Brighton Beach Busking when they started is so good to check out on your Ren perv 😂🫶 Loved your reaction 😄 ❤️
The next song they played after this was War Pigs (its actually a medley of Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne and a bit of Rage). Well worth a watch. Romain played guitar whilst wearing the hood in Money Game part 1. He was Ren's room mate when they played in the Big Push together, they lived in the apartment that is featured in the videos for Murderer, Losing It, and Bongo Bong.. Goran the bass player (he also sings and plays guitar and blues harp) also lived with them for a while during lockdown. The did a cover and video of David Bowie's 'Hero's' during lock down that is brilliant..
Romain axisa is one of rens best mates/flatmate he is french but has moved to brighton uk permantly.. he is amazing .. also he is playing his 1st solo show live in the brighton dome on the 16th of jan.. thankfully i am in the UK and have my tickets booked.. you should definatly check out romains new songs.. love from england..xx
Ren can't play basketbal, he admitted that himself. On the rest he is indeed very good. The rapping he did is part of the song "hip hop". Lovely reaction once again, so enjoyable watching you react to our book club leader. 😁
@@Abigirl_Reacts Since this comment went out 3 minutes ago the bidding went to 100k. Unfortunately 1 minute ago the police called to say there is a major incident at my property and not to come home for a few days :)
Hi Abs, how did I know Ren was going to give you chills haha. We are going to have to start an executive Ren fan club and install you as chief content curator. Your reactions always make me smile, keep the good stuff coming.
I just found your channel today and I'm hooked. You are adorable and I enjoy your bubbly personality and your intelligence. Mix that with your almost innocent little girl excitement and I just can't stop watching your videos. Love it!❤
Romain and Ren were roomates for 6 years and he was the masked man in in the MG1 video and the MG2 live performance at Sky Arts. There is also a Twitch stream on Ren's channel with the 2 of them jamming together. And if course alk the Big Push!
Romain Axisa is the guitarist in "Money Game Part 1". I'll agree with the rest, all the street vids are amazing (both TBP and Ren/Chinchilla on her first night busking).
Romaine is a phenomenally talented guitarist from France, and has a personal affectation for wearing victorian style dresses when performing. Wait til you catch more of the Big Push for some epic solos. Icarus, Watch Out, War Pigs cover, soooooo many others. Setting aside how talented and tight they play together, you can just look at them and see and feel the joy coming off them. Major props to you for sliding on the glasses at the start, but not staring directly, choosing to respectfully side eye ogle Ren. lol P.S you were thinking of scat, the style of singing, and while Ren is supremely talented, no the last section of singing wasn't improv, it's another song he's doing tribute to.
Impressive live performance, as usual with Ren. Impressive reaction as well, you are such a delight to watch and out of all the reactors I've subbed you, AbiGirl, are my favorite Ren reactor by far. Love ya, catch you on the next one!
There's a lot of amazing songs from The Big Push! Just to mention a few: Sweet Little Lady Why My Woman? Oh My Woman Precious It's Alright Praise You Englishman In New York Dignity Icarus Bongo Bong Swan Song Paint It Black (Busking) War Pigs (Busking) Wade In The Water/Nina Simone/Trouble So Hard (Busking)
The tingling chills, heat, and elevated heart rate. Yep, you just qualified for what your reactor colleague Britt calls the PDC. (The D is for drop 😅). Oh, yeah and you pulled off a good cover by noting the gestures and moves Ren used to lead the group. 😄. Fun time with you Abi!
Hey Abi,did you see the big Babymetal news? They announced a huge EU arena tour with Poppy and Bambiethug as supporting act's. More than that they said it would be with new music, which in all likelihood means a new album. I would expect that to drop on or around Fox Day April 1st which is tradionally BM's official holiday
@@Abigirl_Reacts As far as what you've seen so far, he was the guitarist under the mask in Money Game part 1. He shows up in a lot of The Big Push videos, and actually has a lot of good songs of his own on his channel as well. "Turn the Lights Down" is a fav of mine, as well as "Goodbye Good Days".
Ren has said he isn't opposed to The Big Push getting back together, but their careers going in different directions and his treatments has made it difficult so far. You never know though.
Scatting is what you were trying to think of. Hip Hop is a song by Dead Prez is the last song. Now you have to do War Pigs (Black Sabbath Cover), Paint it Black (Rolling Stones Cover) and Watch Out (TBP Original) from the same set. Your reactions always get a smile on my face. 😊
So yes not loads of versions of this, but loads more in this session. They started with this mash up, then segwayed into black Sabbath War pigs mash up, then did a Big Push original called Watch Out, then finished on Paint it Black mash up. All the busks were in Brighton a City on the English channel coastline. And yes I also wish I knew about them then, as a fellow Brit I wasn't to far away from Brighton I was up in Oxford at the time, but man I wish I'd seen them live.!!! Great reaction Abigirl, and now you must continue the session next time with War pigs red suspenders session pt2. 😁👍🏼🇬🇧🇬🇬🇬🇧❤🇺🇸😁👍🏼
The reason the red suspenders version is always requested is because this was recorded into a multi-track and mastered by Ren instead of a camera mic for the other version. They are an incredibly tight band considering they improvise, and every performance is different by choice.
6/5/21 at Ship Street, Brighton, UK. Check my channel main I have a playlist. Here's the playlist description: In the afternoon of June 5, 2021, the full band returned to the usual busking spot: corner of Ship street and North street to perform. This was not the first time they went back busking on the street after the lockdown since last year (2021), but this time is different as they came prepared. With the recording devices fully setup (albeit some minor hiccup later found), all the instrument, vocals, acoustics and vibes were captured perfectly (adding Ren's meticulous and perfectionist style mixing effort). The result is what we knew nowadays as the legendary so-called "Red Suspender" busking session (as Ren wore that). The band released 4 official videos from this set including: 1. Watch Out (original) 2. I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop (cover, Bob Marley/Damian Marley/Dead Prez) (Note: There's a short section of the song "A Little Bit Of Luck" from Dj Luck & MC Neat in this mashup song, but did not included in the video title) 3. War Pigs (cover, Black Sabbath) (Note: this is a mashup actually including the song War Pigs, Paranoid (also a Black Sabbath song), guitar riff from Crazy Train (Ozzy Osbourne) and Killing in the name of (Rage Against the Machine)) 4. Paint it Black (cover, Rolling Stones) The second video (I Shot the Sheriff) is always the highest viewed video ever from band's official youtube channel (15M views 8/20/24) We also included another video from fan angle regarding the I Shot the Sheriff video can be treated as the b-roll for the video.
You have to listen to War Pigs the Black Sabbath cover. It is from the same busking session but a lot more people showed up. It is crazy how they can have a concert level performance on the street. Also the Big Push was just getting big at the time but they had to break up because Ren had to move to Canada for his medical treatments.
There's a great vid of Ren improv'ing some Frank Sinatra as well as Elvis. You definitely need to find that plus react to Why My Woman. His fast natural vibrato may not be conducive to opera but 'for a rapper' his voice always surprises me.
Now you’re starting to see why when you started the REN train we were excited to see you go through it. As soon as I saw you did this I couldn’t start it fast enough, one of my favorites in his busking. Might wanna check out him with San Tompkins, more of an R& B vibe. Thanks.
I absolutely love it when Ren is in his feels! He don't care what's going on around him, what people think, what he looks like. You get the sense that the world fades away from his mind and its just him and the music vibing, as one, as it flows out of him! Please please please check out "Blind Eyed" both the original music video and the live M.C. sessions video! There are actually several versions of Ren and Sam busking Blind Eyed that are all worth watching for various reasons, including the hilarious "Angry car park attendant" version, but the M.C. sessions is the one that I feel fully encapsulates the way Ren gets into his feels while playing. Blind Eyed Official music video- th-cam.com/video/xjF_JTbBZjQ/w-d-xo.html Blind Eyed- M.C. Sessions video- th-cam.com/video/6z7ug3B_Sts/w-d-xo.html
War Pigs from the same red braces session should be next - different genre but every bit as good - in the intro to it Ren says the previous song was like a massage so I think he is referring to this one. I won't spoil the fun of his next line after he says that.
You definitely need to add both versions of Sweet Little Lady, a Big Push original. Both versions now! Maybe combine them in one reaction, studio video first and live acoustic next. You will not regret the combo!
Yes I’ve been gone but “that” type of singing is called Scat and that is also the name for wild animal poop as a fun little trivia nugget. Romaine was the guitar player in Money Game 1. Also, Ren will make you feel things more in Losing It. You thought I had given up? No way lol. Have a great day!
It amuses me when Americans say Ren in red suspenders as in the UK suspenders are ladies underwear to hold up stockings , what you call suspenders we call braces 😊
Love your reactions Abi. You’ve got to do war pigs from the same day. Bongo Bomgo, Praise me and English man in New York are wonderful vids from most of these lads. ❤️👍🏽👍☘️
I was surprise you recognised the ska beat am Jamaican and subscribe and told my mates to subscribe too just because of that commen🎉nuff love and loads of big up miss 🎉
Bongo Bong is a great next track. They stopped performing when Ren went to Canada. Romain Axisa ( hooded man from money game 1) has some excellent solo work also.
I strongly recommend watching ‘Chalk Outlines’ busking version. It’s right at the end of their set, it’s emotional for him (and us). It’s just him and his guitar. No chinchilla I’m afraid. It’s a hidden gem, not on his channel, but I can link you if you can’t find it. I don’t think many reactors know it even exists, which is a travesty! ❤
I always finish your Ren reactions thinking you might need some.. personal time. but yes this one always gives me chills, it's a permanent fixture on my music playlist. He does a great back on 74/message in a bottle.. and if you have seen that already then I missed it, sorry.
Yes I actually did react to back on 74 as well, it's great! I'm a mom of a 3 year old and an 8 month old, personal time does not exist in this household. Lol 🤣🤣🤣
The amount of talent in that band blows me away. "Ren good" is the perfect description. I know Ren and the other guys in the Big Push are all cool with each other and they've collaborated a bunch since. I think they stopped playing together when Ren got really ill. I think Ren talks about it in a video. Super talented people and nice to see that they're just.. well.. nice.
REN. GOOD. Perfect articulation lmao
Watch "Bongo-Bongo" Featuring Ren with Romain Axisa & Gorran Kendall just chilling on the roof-top! (the same rooftop that the "Murderer" video starts out with)! Super awesome Harmonies & Romain playing the Ukulele! All round Awesomness! 🙌🙌😊😊
I love ukeleles ^_^
Wow Abigirl.
How You’ve grown nicely into the RENagades niche
Awesome how interested you are in everything from the solo to the scatting.
It’s already been mentioned I’m sure but you should check out ‘Power’
A real nice groove I think you’d enjoy..
Love your reaction and am enjoying your journey with great interest.

Oh my goodness haha I thought he just started freestyling. I wouldn't be surprised though if he eventually did ^_^
I am always dumbfounded by Ren's talent. Romain has been a friend and companion for ages. And as always, your reactions are so entertaining.
Thank so much for the kind words Michael ^_^
Romain Axisa is on many Ren videos, he is also the guy under the mask in Money Game (part 1).
That's where I remember people mentioning him!
@@Abigirl_Reacts That's the one..!!😁👍🏼
And the Sky Arts 1:00 MG2 video
Big push.. Another massive rabbit hole of delights ❤
For sure, can't wait to dive in!
That type of singing is called "Scat"
That's it!

His cover of Georgia On My Mind is a must watch :)
He played the guitar in money game.
Pause as much as you you want - 99% of us are hear for your reaction

First big push song I heard , then the Black Sabbath song - way cool 😊😊
My first too, can't wait for more!
Bongo Bong!!!!
Added, ty!
Romaine plays the guitar with a sack on his head in money game part 1... I think ❤❤
That's it, yes!
yep that was Romaine
And on the live of Money Game 2 at Sky Arts recently 😊

Ren is a very special man. Unbelievably talented and he's pretty cute too. I just adore him. ❤
This ^
The Hip Hop section is a song by the underground rap group Dead Prez.
Oh cool!
Come on you telling us you haven't heard this ? Stunned. It's like Cyprus hill and jump around. Haha
Classic hip hop
Spotify now now now 😅
And make sure you turn the bass up... 🙊
A great song that showcases each of them having a solo singing part is "What Kind Of Woman Is This."
"
Thanks for the suggestion! ^_^
The Big Push didn't break up as such.

The reason the red suspenders version is always requested is because this was recorded into a multi-track and mastered by Ren instead of a camera mic for the other version.

Ooh, you're going to love the Big Push stuff. There's quite a lot 😊😂
Can't wait!
Watch "what kind of woman is this " and both versions of sweet little lady, icarus and the acoustic version and then the bts video. All quality 👍🔥😂
Thanks for the suggestions! ^_^
Wait til Abigirl finds out he gets called “Goldie-cocks” in the BTS for Icarus 🤭
Now you’re starting to see why when you started the REN train we were excited to see you go through it. As soon as I saw you did this I couldn’t start it fast enough, one of my favorites in his busking. Might wanna check out him with San Tompkins, more of an R&
B vibe. Thanks.
That's the plan! Thanks for watching ^_^
I absolutely love it when Ren is in his feels! He don't care what's going on around him, what people think, what he looks like. You get the sense that the world fades away from his mind and its just him and the music vibing, as one, as it flows out of him! Please please please check out "Blind Eyed" both the original music video and the live M.C. sessions video! There are actually several versions of Ren and Sam busking Blind Eyed that are all worth watching for various reasons, including the hilarious "Angry car park attendant" version, but the M.C. sessions is the one that I feel fully encapsulates the way Ren gets into his feels while playing.

Yessss thank you so much for the links! This really helps ^_^
Been looking forward to you doing this one definitely didn't disappoint. Love Ren days
Do you prefer I say Renday or Rensday?
@Abigirl_Reacts I have no preference, whichever you prefer just keep them coming.
That comment below - re: look for the Black Sabbath one - same show. Friggin' awesome. :)
Thank you! I'll look for it
Scatting is the term you are looking for when Ren do the transitions.
I love the dead prez cover. I whish he have the whole complete song covered.
Never heard it but I bet it's awesome!
BAND-MAID with The Warning / SHOW THEM (Official Music Video)
Cool!
the last part is the first verse of Dead Prez track hip hop
Never heard it before ^_^
Its a great track
the term is called Scatting - its from Jazz music
Yes that's it!
War Pigs from the same red braces session should be next - different genre but every bit as good - in the intro to it Ren says the previous song was like a massage so I think he is referring to this one. I won't spoil the fun of his next line after he says that.
Haha can't wait!
I like to start my day with the medly. By the time the kettle has boiled I'm ready to face the day
Hope you like it!
You definitely need to add both versions of Sweet Little Lady, a Big Push original. Both versions now! Maybe combine them in one reaction, studio video first and live acoustic next. You will not regret the combo!
Ty for the suggestion, added!
Yes I’ve been gone but “that” type of singing is called Scat and that is also the name for wild animal poop as a fun little trivia nugget. Romaine was the guitar player in Money Game 1. Also, Ren will make you feel things more in Losing It. You thought I had given up? No way lol. Have a great day!
I THOUGHT scat was poop! Lmao I've watched too many episodes of Alone haha
It amuses me when Americans say Ren in red suspenders as in the UK suspenders are ladies underwear to hold up stockings , what you call suspenders we call braces 😊
That's hilarious 😂
@@Abigirl_Reacts especially so as nowadays they are mostly used as something for the weekend 🙂
Love your reactions Abi.
You’ve got to do war pigs from the same day.
Bongo Bomgo, Praise me and English man in New York are wonderful vids from most of these lads.
❤️👍🏽👍☘️
I've added your suggestions, thank you so much!

Ty for the link!
",,,,I,,,,,Ren,,,,,,good,,," 🤣😆🤣😆🤣
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Bongo Bong is a great next track. They stopped performing when Ren went to Canada. Romain Axisa ( hooded man from money game 1) has some excellent solo work also.
Added Bongo, ty!
You'd love them doing bongo bong on the rooftop
Its definitely on my list ^_^
When you go down to ren rabbit hole you don't come back haven't you seen Alister in wonderland 😎👍
Can't say i have!
Always look forward to Ren day 🎉
Do you like when I say Ren day or is Rensday better? Haha
@@Abigirl_Reacts Rensday is fine but with halloween coming up you should consider Children of the moon.
If you want to see Gold Ren😊 you have to check out behind the push Icarus then icarus.... it's Golden awesome reaction 👍👍✌️
Gold Ren? Yes please
I strongly recommend watching ‘Chalk Outlines’ busking version. It’s right at the end of their set, it’s emotional for him (and us). It’s just him and his guitar. No chinchilla I’m afraid.
It’s a hidden gem, not on his channel, but I can link you if you can’t find it. I don’t think many reactors know it even exists, which is a travesty! ❤
I'll look for it, ty!
@@Abigirl_Reacts He comes across as quite vulnerable, which means I've lost track of the amount of times I've just wanted to give him a hug!
🙋🏻♀️ It's Aaabbbyyy day yippie!! 🥰🫶🌹🫶🥰
Whoo hoo!
You’re such a fabulous reactor
Thank you for the kind words Calvin ^_^
Too damn cute, yes he/they are amazing
💯
Have you seen Ren doing Frank Sinatra ?! A must watch...
I have not! Sounds amazing
Scatting, vocalizing the notes!
That's it!
I….I….Ren….good ❤😂
LOL REN. GOOD.
Ohh I missed this... will have to watch your reaction when I get home.
Please do!
As others said, Ren isn’t freestyling. However, there is an adorable video of Ren reacting to Harry Mack doing a freestyle rap about Ren.
How old was Ren?
Ren comes on Glasses goes on 😅
Haha YUP
Same ol Ren.... nice
💯
I always finish your Ren reactions thinking you might need some.. personal time. but yes this one always gives me chills, it's a permanent fixture on my music playlist. He does a great back on 74/message in a bottle.. and if you have seen that already then I missed it, sorry.
Yes I actually did react to back on 74 as well, it's great! I'm a mom of a 3 year old and an 8 month old, personal time does not exist in this household. Lol 🤣🤣🤣
@@Abigirl_Reacts bless you. its fun so enjoy it while you can... they grow up. mine are 17 and 20..I'll go check 74
Check out Bongo Bong. Rooftop performance. Romain is a beast on guitar, check out some of his stuff..it’s amazing.
Added, ty!
