@Sam Saw your great interview with Joe E. ❤ enjoyed every minute of it. I know this will be outstanding. You and Ren can't miss and a shoutout to the whole crew behind the scenes!
Sam's filming is as masterful & brilliant as your music, Ren. Storytelling, filmmaking, theatre at the level of genius. No record deal could give you this uniqueness. Devoted fan, aged 57.
@@pirada74 👌❤totally, he is very talented, without talking/rapping about crap. His music is amazing and his words are easy to hear and understand, a lot of artists just keep the same beat, but not Ren he makes a great beat up in each of his song. Best I've seen in a Long Time, Ren has his own sound its perfect 😍 🕊🕊🕊
Every video! As well as every single song. They make you think, they're also unbelievably relatable to everyone in one way or another! They are stories told in amazing music form.
I genuinely think that Ren is the most important artist in the world today. I’ve never felt the obligation, desire and the *need* to share an artists work as broadly as I can, because the message resonates so much and demands to be heard.
Good morning beautiful. Good rising . It’s real. We are everywhere. They couldn’t keep us down . Or how they tried. So many lies. Truth seekers are seeing behind the curtains. No more smoke and mirrors. Can’t stop this.
Keep screaming. A byproduct of this form of capitalism we developed is it's permanence. It can't be modified because it's against the spirit of capitalism and the way it works.
As a 71 year old, im pretty hard to impress anymore. But this young man has blown me away! Im so grateful to be alive to witness the sucess of such an amazing artist as Ren! People with his talent are getting rare these days. We are blessed to have him! ❤❤❤
I'm 61, and I feel the same way. Ren is the most important musician to come our way in a long, long time. I feel privileged to be here to witness his genius.
What other artist can you think of that is loved by country, rock, rap, hip hop, edm, jazz, and classical fans. Ren is a gift to our era and he has shown the light on a number of other amazing, original artists
I thought at 47 I was too old to become "a fan" of any new artist. My favourite music is 60s/70s rock. Before my time but I felt that musicians expressed themselves more freely then. I never thought that I'd find an artist that would impress me as much as Pink Floyd. Thanks to the Internet, artists now have a platform to produce what they want and boy has that produced one of the most unique and gifted talents ever to grace the industry. Ren has suffered to get to where he is now and although a curse for him, for the rest of us it is a gift. 🎶Oh, reign, reign reign Rens music it will reign It's such a shame, the price you paid But it all lead, to this old money game🎶
...you have NO idea what you're in for... Have fun in your new, better world... :) Super excited for you! :):) (Oh! And don't forget his previous band, The Big Push - absolutely EPIC)
I discovered him on TikTok as it came up n i thought.... heard amazing things so I watched then came here n subscribed n heard this at 11pm last night n at first I was playing it on pc in background n on phone. But I focused in but still a bit distracted then I focused in again n watched 20 secs n went back ta beginning n watched enthralled n memorised n actually cried at the end. No FUXKIN rapper/songwriting duo/using intense life experience/or such soul touching lyricals with such an intensity n phenomenal response from many. I have been watching it on repeat n yes I've started going down the rabbit hole n every song so far I've found exceptional n the voices of both are vocally impressive!! Rens n Sams newest biggest Aussie fan!!!!
@@PetalCox I just love how excited and enthusiastic you are... I'm stifling laughter under my breath as I write this -Not laughing AT your reaction rather Feeling the intensity of the awe and amazement from your words. It's just the perfect amount. :) Welcome aboard the REN train! So glad you found our boy, Sam T already:) Happy to have you w/us, new Renegade :):):)
Can we all just call a spade a spade here? Ren makes better theatrical releases in both plot, writing, a musical scores than Hollywood has in decades! Dude, keep doing what you're doing. In 100 years, people will be talking about Ren as much as we talk about Sinatra in 2024. Keep up the MARVELOUS work!!!!
Fun fact: 'calling a spade a spade' from its original Greek would be translated more accurately as 'calling a [female urinal] a [female urinal]'; calling something what it is, no matter how obscene.
I hadnt heard of Ren an hour ago. Now im on a journey and my jaw is still on the floor. Putting the art back in music. Im still trying to process how amazing this guy is. Just WOW
Just discovered Ren last night and so far I've enjoyed EVERYTHING I've heard from him. With all the trite out nowadays it is so refreshing to hear such an original artist, and one with a message to boot. Just loving this discovery.
You should listen to alot of his older songs aswell all his playlists in his youtube channel like demos (do not share) vol 1 and 2 freckled angels and his retakes theyre also amazing
My second ever album 'Sick Boi' is out now! bio.to/Ren-Sick-Boi As always here are the lyrics for anyone who wants them! Let me tell you a story about a boy named Jimmy 1 years old and his first words were "Mine, mine, Gimmie!" 2 years old he was walking, 3 years old walking quickly 4 years old he was running round the pavements of the city 5 years old and his daddy told him "listen here son, You Gota learn to be a man a man he works for what he wants" 6 years old and he’s reading, writing top of the bunch And when he’s 7 his progression made him student number 1 8 years old and he’s praised for unusual grades 9 his parents pay for private school to nurture the flame 10 11 12 13 he ascends and ascends His daddy tells him "son, money is the means to all ends" 14 solving complex mathematic equations 15 I.Q one hundred and fifty still elevating 16 he develops complex software code That detects weaknesses in cyber security protocols 17 and he sells vision keeping a share not yet an adult but he's practically a millionaire, 18 and his daddy tells him "now your a man This world don't give a damn about you so take all that you can" 19 he turns a profit stocks and shares invest in product 20 double down deposits 21 his income rockets 22 he learns that truth is just an obstacle to wealth If you manipulate the data then a lie will sell itself 23 a life of luxury crystal and cocaine, 24 he made the Forbes list they're applauding his name 25 and his daddy tells him "listen here son While ur sitting in your Palace, that don't mean that you won" 26 a business shift he switches business to arms 27 dealing nuclear and shells in Iran 28 inside the sennet money bought him a seat 29 a role of council in the president sweet Now he’s 30 and his daddy says "you're loosing the race You're just a servant to the king not even in second place " 31 A big manoeuvre for his daddy’s approval Moving imports over borders from the exports out of Cuba. 32 moving grams growing kilos to tonnes (Put down champagne glass 33 filling warehouses with powder and guns 34 Turf war with nobody to stop it Blind eye from the Po-Po inside of his pocket 35 - and he gets a call, "I’m sorry son But its your father, had a heart attack I’m sorry he’s gone" 36 - getting pissed and abusing his product 37 - eyes glazed, disposition demonic 38 - with a prostitute a moment of passion Heating up a silver spoon and then chasing the dragon 39 - Getting reckless and hungry for power Daddy’s words still driving him to kill and devour Makes a move against the cartel but the strategies flawed. ( CARTEL RUNN PAST SHOT/ SMOKE GRENADE? SMOKE MACHINE?) They retaliate and leave him in a hospital ward A bullet buried in the vertebra and one in the leg The doctor sighs and says I don’t think you’ll be walking again Let me tell you a story about a boy named jimmy He was 40 and he cursed the words mine mine gimme 41 he wasn’t walking 42, not walking quickly 43 never running round the pavement of his city 44 inside his palace with a mountain of gold But the riches turn to rubble when perspective evolves Weighing heavy on his conscience is the value of gold A Lamborghini for a life, trading money for souls But jimmy followed the code inside the land of the free Put your hand inside the cookie jar take more than you need And his is example is exaggerated versions of me - [ ] And its a version of him and its a version of she And its a version you there’s no escaping the blame The way we live is parasitic fuck the money and fame Cut the music This ain’t entertainment, this is real life The way we live is lunacy, community it declines Hyperpolerised - always fighting then we divide Truth is less important than the money that we designed? Moneys an invention, politics from our invention They all come from peoples ideas did I mention Borders our invention Law and order fuel the tension that leads to people killing each other? My solution Everything is subject to change We can builds Utopias if individuals are taught to use there’s brains But if we teach kids in school to always be sheep And put ourselves before the heard if there’s more money for me Then there’s no future I see, where the humans survive Were parasites in side a petridish With cannibal minds Mould grows upon a surface it consumes till it dies And our fate could be the same, so here’s a story for the wise 45 jimmy comes home out of the rain Soaking wet upon a wheel chair, drinking again Everything he wants he has fortune and fame He’s a fortunate fool with an unfortunate fate With a 45 calibre aimed at his brain 45 a fitting number cause his age is same Hears the words of his father; ‘such a damn shame’ Then he presses on the trigger of a money game
Awhile ago i made a comment saying Jenny and Screech was peak for Ren. He replied to my comment saying "wait for money game part 3" He wasn't kidding, this is master class. Love seeing this dude break through on the billboards. Keep climbing Ren, we will be with you the whole way up!
Right?? My current all time favourite is Hi Ren. Or maybe Suic*de. Maybe this one. Or any other one of his songs really! 😅 Can't wait what else he has in store!
If he does and doesn't call it a Rensation, or Renditions, Renegades or other Ren favoring names sake, he would be throwing away some good advertisement of his brand because we all know it would capture the audiences it played to as well as the critics. How could they not give it the acclaim he's deserving to receive on any and all his creations.
Ren... this is pure insanity. I mean there's no scale to measure your talents. You're a poet. A singer. An actor. A philosopher. My god Ren what a story what a performance! I'm on my knees speechless.
As a musician myself, my favorite artists are the ones who force me to pay closer attention, the ones who make me feel something. You've done it again.
@@RenMakesMusic I am hoping your return to your art means you are feeling better! Our society has a much better chance at healing, with your voice and art disturbing the comfortable... and bringing comfort to those of us who have long been disturbed by our profoundly sick society. Thank you for refusing to be quiet.
@@JeremySmith-sx2oz I agree with Rem. If we continue like this, we, as humans, don`t have a future. I am gratefull for discovering Rem, one of the best storytellers. The world needs more Rems and less Rihanas, Beyonces and similar craps.
@@RenMakesMusicthe world needs more ren you can change minds don’t give up ever bro talent is an understatement the best artist don’t get fully known till they are gone sad but true just know you that guy.
Every song, every lyric i hear from Ren brings raw emotion. I lost my nephew, my child 2 years ago on Saturday, to drugs, but i found Ren. He makes me feel again. What an incredible human he is. Love you Ren, please keep making me feel human again.
Tbh I think Rens songs are...yes a message, but every song has his heart and soul pouring out. God knows what his IQ is !!!? On Love Music pt2 , he gets every Bond film in to make sense with his lyrics....pure gey
I really love the way Ren straight up tells you the message. It’s upfront and he quite literally tells you that “this is not entertainment.”, but instead it’s a message which feels as though it’s being told directly to you. You can really see how the passion flowing from every frames of the video and every second of the song. Ren, you inspire me and hopefully have inspired a whole generation. Please keep up the good work.
Totally agree my friend 👌 I was also mesmerised when he honestly said "This is not entertainment" . He's delivering a message to the world not only through powerful lyrics but also a convincing performance, which is frankly quite rare to find among artists nowadays .
Just now discovered this man. You have a new fan, Ren! You sing the truth with no filters, and this needs to be seen worldwide! Salutations From a French man in Quebec, Canada!❤
KUDOS to Ren and Sam. You guys basically condensed a 2 hour biopic into a 10 minute music video. Just wanted to take a moment to apreciate the artistic feat apart from the message. Videos like this are why I love TH-cam so much as a viewer.
@@tropport exactly. I meant to say that this story might as well be a full 2 hour biopic and would have had me glued to my seat. Condensing that down into a 10 minute video the way they did here? It is just a mindblowing artistic feat on its own. And I propose that this is only possible independently on youtube. I can't imagine any major label greenlighting this.
The beauty of this type of artistry is the suspense tied in with emotion of the story teller. Every time I listen to Ren's work it blows me away. Keep doing what you do!
i never had heard about this man.... and today is a happy day for me. this man dont rap or sing..... hes making art. such a diferent way of storytteling. And the clip man , the guy behind this camera is a genius 2. much freaking love from portugal. keep making art. U touch my soul brother, GOD bless you
This song is something else, but also the way Ren ties things together is subtle and amazing. “Rain, rain, rain / A storm it comes our way” At the end, he’s out drenched in the rain. “And those who rise through distorted lies.” We learn the story of Jimmy and his climb to power. And finally, what hits it home for me, “Poison in the veins” Later in life, Jimmy turns to drugs and alcohol, which linger in the bloodstream. This is a work of lyrical/compositional art.
I’m an old man who’s dealt with my mental health for most of my life. Being diagnosed with schizophrenia not long ago I relate to Ren. Real or not I feel he has a great grasp of the struggles I deal with everyday. Whatever your story Ren, keep making music, to me at least, it makes a difference and I feel. Thank you.
This is quite seriously one of the greatest things I’ve ever heard. The way you write this song forces listeners to hear the lyrics and what story is being told. It’s a complete departure from the previous songs. The other two were comparatively upbeat, but this one is just a swarm of emotion that won’t stop coming. Massive, MASSIVE round of applause to you. Have fun making history dude
The cinematography, choreography, art & production value is off the charts. The entire team has shot light years beyond what you've done heretofore. I can see many awards and accolades in thy immediate future.
This music video is beyond impressive! This is the pinnacle of one-take cinematography. And Ren you and your team pulled this off absoloutely beautifully. Maddest of respect.
With all due respect to Samuel, Ren, and the rest of the crew for this, I think I have to still give Russian Ark credit for the pinnacle of one-take cinematography. This is damn good, though!
Is… is this all one take?? As someone who has done a LOT of film I’m obsessed with this. Ik you can fake that now but this REALLY looks like all one take. Ren is legit a genius and the set director ain’t bad either. Just plain wow.
Absolute masterpiece. From every word to every shot scene in one take. The movements of people to the rain dropping to the actual story telling bringing it to life. Thank you Ren, Sam and team for the most influential art I’ve ever seen. Last two hours have blown my mind.
Ren never ceases to amaze me with his brilliant song writing, absolute chills when he calls to stop the music. Thank you for everything you do Ren. You inspire me on a daily basis. Keep up the good fight. -Ryan
since discovering your music there hasn't been one thing you have done that isn't amazing and the fact you can do some many different types of music 😮😮😮 Please never stop
What do you even call this?? “Song” doesn’t exactly do it justice, right? Performance art? Poetry in motion? A freaking master class on creativity in storytelling? I’m completely blown away right now…well freaking done Ren! Congrats! Can’t wait for the album drop tomorrow! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
The way he looks at the gun and takes a deep breath, that looks like someone who's done that before. Makes me feel even more for Ren, knowing how hard his struggles have been and yet he continues to pull through and then use that experience to help those of us who need it.
As a professor of psychology and a practitioner in the field, the treasure hunt, the days preceding it, the video message at the end, I would love to have a 2 semester course just breaking this down. Thank you Ren for such a valuable experience and for truly holding a mirror up to my face. Cheers
Is it really like that? Pressed for assumption, i may think it more likely that the universal quest for meaning and worth is often at odds with the ways a person lives or is incentivized to live, and to become introspective quickly after a message that is delivered powerfully suggests a listener that is not in total denial regarding the struggle that is within. Even lifelong students of defense mechanisms are nonetheless at risk against them, so everyone needs a friend or an artist or comedian to turn them toward the mirror from time to time. @sarabevan3468
It is honestly insane and so impressive to see you go between all these different genres in just one song. You are a modern-day Shakespearean poet and I am here for it.
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK. right when you think every single piece of his genius has been highlighted .. he comes with yet another masterpiece. Every single detail- the music, poetry, the tone, and the emotions that pour out of it all is so fucking beautiful and heavy and real! He allows you to see it all ..his storytelling is never flat or one sided. We get to be the audience without trying ❤ Goddamn..mad respect and appreciation to you @RenMakesMusic and Sam ..
This is no song, this is theatre, a MUSICAL, a tragedy! Beautiful! It says so much - this is a story about parent child relationship, a story about human nature, about our values and our system. We hear you Ren! Thank you for sending the message to the world!
Jaw dropped in absolute awe and is staying there. The wordplay, the story, the rhymes. I have this man down as the most incredible talent in the industry right now.....up there with all time. Insane talent Ren.
Chills. Hi Ren was probably the most impactful piece of art i've found in the last few years because it hit me personally as I've been struggling with a number of diseases, surgeries and health issues for the past 3 years. But this and the whole money game series are just so breath taking in both the quality and the message. Keep singing the songs that matter and know that to me and my life you have made a difference even if only a small one. We have so much potential if we could just stop wasting it.
I am 63. I was pissed drunk in my little bedsit on my own when I came across this. By the time it finished I was cold sober with a renewed direction! Thank you for sharing your talent young fellah!
@@S1lentLunarThis is actually a message to @MrRupit123 We are all shown what we need to see when we need to see it. We all have our own sack of rocks to carry. If you gained something from this video, I am grateful; I did as well. Please ignore those who will make "smart" comments about things which they do not understand. Ren has much insight and true understanding about things which he, in a perfect world, should not. I appreciate his work and appreciate even more the lessons his work teaches us out here in TH-cam land. Anything you gain from anything in this world is a gift. Use it to grow yourself and those around you. Do not use this beauty to cause pain to another, much like @Skeliton21 tried to do.
Ren, you are what people need, really.. Thank you for your music, for real, nothing compares to what you've been bringing, truth to open peoples minds.
I absolutely love Ren's use of pauses are. Examples are the pause before the last line here, the breath taken as he stands and steadies himself before walking through Violet's Tale and the momentary pause of thought in Chalk Outlines before the line "I hope I'm someone else in the morning ".
Mindblowing stuff from start to finish. Have never seen something so well executed on TH-cam before. The whole premiere experience was out of this world. Even the countdown unbelievably well thought through. Congrats all
The art from you Ren is unbelievable. The way you tell the story with the show that goes with it is totally refreshing. I'm 53 years old and I salute you brother
@@TheManFromNantucketso true! Hi Ren is easily my favorite song from Ren. After hearing this one, this is now my second favorite, although it’s hard when he has so many great songs.
Ren, I'm a Psychiatric nurse who works with seriously mentally ill kids, our music therapist also works with medically ill children. I shared your music with her. She struggles with Lupus. She loved your music, she is going to tell your story and share your music. We both feel your music can help our kids❤There is nobody like you. You are a genius.
I don't usually comment on videos, but without a doubt this has to be an exception. This is an absolute fucking masterpiece mate. Hopefully with more people like you we can change this twisted, messed up world and be free from the greed and lies that society has seemed to come to worship. All I can say really is thank you for creating this song, and helping to spread your message. Thank you!
Such incredible talent, and amazing work. Flawless story telling. Ren’s really made a name from himself, and to think i found him busking on the streets of brighton with The Big Push. And then went to see their last concert as a band. This man has helped so many people through so many different things. His mums a bright star too, met her on the train on the way back home that night. Such a beautiful family. Much love Ren. I hope you see this.
@@four2i I’ve seen some coverage of that concert, it looked amazing! Although there was a fan in the crowd yelling “ren!” Like every 10 seconds, she was very persistent lmao
I'm 50 years old, for the past x months I've cried tears and tears listening to your stories through unprecedented performances... what you, Ren, and your team are doing to me is somehow resetting myself, therapy (if I can say so) on a daily basis. Without going on too long, I can say that you make me better, more sensitive, more humble in front of all that and those who make up my life. Deep bow and respect to Ren and your loved ones who supported you and continue to do so...

Is there anything Ren can't do? He plays piano and guitar like a god, raps and sings unnaturally well, I believe he can do anything he outs his mind too. Ren is an amazing artist. I hope you keep producing music. Every song you write is absolutely amazing. Keep up the good work.
I am a 72 year old man, once America and now Canadian. I have been following you for going on 6 years, as best I could before your new success has made it a lot easier. LOL You may or may not realize it but many songs and efforts from my youth are reflected in your music. We fought the good fight back then, also. And, at one point in time we thought we were winning, but it was an illusion. It is sad than many of those songs and feeling are just as true today as back then. Very sad. Your music transcends those songs and are put in a way that trike people in new ways. The war was not won. I'm not even sure how many battles we may or may not have won, but we tried and now, I am tired. I do the best I can to help and fight still and your music and words stir me on like I haven't felt in years. Thank you. Thank you very much. Fight on Ren. Fight hard and never give up. Thank you for the inspiration and the renewed vigor. You are doing good work both artistically and for society. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. .... PS, am waiting for my cd to ship and anxiously waiting to put it in my car so I can listen to you on the road also. Thank you gain.
This is a true artist. He's not just musically talented but also visually expressive to the point you feel apart of the story. Most artists can't draw people in like Ren can. He's truly one of a kind ❤
It all clicks in the end. Bro, you're a bloody genius. I know comments are tough ground, but I can't say enough how important your work is. Music for me is in a "post Ren" world. So many tunes and artists I thought were brilliant until I heard what brilliant actually is. Total respect. I 100% wish you the best in everything.
@@arg1 The last click he got was from the gun duh. IN the end it doesn't matter. Chasing statistics and stats, It all plays into his songs. But I see now that's not what you meant.
Wait until you hear Paul Westerberg. A man that fought the record industry to no avail and shot a music video, playing a spinning vinyl of one of The Replacements hits for the entire duration of the song. He was against the commercialization of music to the detriment of his own career. Here's a track off one of his solo albums that I personally think is brilliant. th-cam.com/video/1_zLzsmh3ng/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pdHc83PdY_klJVRp
Speechless 🤯 First of all, Sam has outdone himself. That opening shot was spectacular and the whole video, pure artistry. Second of all, Ren's performance had me on the edge of my seat. Such a dark and interesting concept brought to wonderful fruition in true art 👏👏
This dude is something else all together. Its not the kind if music you put on your Spotify playlists. Its an experience, rhat you havevto see and hear, but especially feel. Not all his songs are like that and some are on my playlist. But with this one, you need to see the video too. Masterpiece and he keeps surprising me. Not just the fact that he sings, raps, write his own music,he also plays guitar and piano,it seems. Thanks Sinead O'Connor, if it wasn't for her tweet, I woildnt even know who Ren was and through him another favorite of mine; Chinchilla. King & queen of England, when it comes to these 2 artists!!❤💟💝💟❤
@@stonefaction- I discovered Ren a month before Sinead’s death, and found her Ren tweet a few days after she passed. I’ve bought all her albums since 1991, and it’s great to see artists promoting each other. 🥰
Wow… I’m in actual shock right now. This was absolutely amazing. I saw him on TikTok just a few mins ago for the first time and become engrossed in his page. He’s so deep with these videos and touches on things that actually matters.
Words cannot express how exceptional this is. I’m simply in awe of the talent that is on display. Never in a million years did I think I could uncover something so meaningful, poignant and visually captivating. You my friend, will make every inch of humankind stand up and listen. This is a gift that only few possess.
As a survivor of ptsd your music just means so much . Amazingly talented doesn't seem to do you enough justice . I have never connected to music like this before.
Your talent is off the scale Ren, with Money game part 1 to part 3, this is how I've been feeling about the world we live in today, I truly hope your messages get through to enough people to change things. Your talent for putting it into a way that others can understand is amazing. Don't ever change who you are. Thank you Sir.
Even though this may not be MY type of music, ren has created such an amazing community that I love to talk with and his music sends out real messages that the world needs to focus on more. Good job Ren! Keep working hard and keep doing what you love!
Ren is the artist the world desperately needs to hear right now. I just hope, with every fibre of my being, that our future adults take his powerful words & performances to heart and begin the journey towards positive change for the future of all hitchhikers on this random rock hurtling through infinite space. (This old hippy is glad to see the hippy spirit still alive and kicking.) ❤
As a person who is about to become a future adult, I really enjoy Ren and I believe we do are changing for the better. There are some bad apples of course (and maybe ive been too enclosed into very safe spaces, who knows) but there might be a chance. What I really worry about though, is that, as time goes on, we could become as heartless and as greedy as a lot of people. Heck, it has been happening to me, where ive been doing bad actions and that I k n o w its hurting others, yet I turn a blind eye and make excuses for myself. I'm scared that as time goes on, we will become more self-centered. I'm afraid that I will become (or maybe I am already) short-sighted, and that I will hurt more people than I already have Do you have any advice on how I should navigate life to lessen the bad consequences? Like, what are some "guidelines" or "maps" to follow?
Love the support Ren gets from other creatures and fans alike. Amazing artists make us all better humans. Thank you to Ren and the others helping him give us art.
@TommyRiffmaster I see your point. I do believe that growth can acure for an individual who has no previous experience on a subject or perspective and actively expands their mind to becoming a more enriched human. Art is one of those conduits.
I'm not sure if you'll read this Ren, but I was driving home with listening to Spotify with my daughter in the car and this song came on and she was very invested in the lyrics of this, when it ended she said how deep the song was, so I'm listening to more of your songs with her and she loves your music. Thank you for such thought provoking lyrics!
I really want to say thank you and give a huge shout out to having real instruments in your music. So much music these days are 100% digital, but having musicians playing on real instruments has a much greater impact on how the music is felt (at least for me). As a cellist, i just want to say thank you for helping keep music alive.
I got literal chills. Such a masterpiece as always. Playing with the genre, playing with the format. But always with a great message. May it find everyone it needs to.
dude....i had never heard of you before about a month ago. idk how you came up on my youtube but im certainly glad you did. your music is a breath of fresh air and i have thoroughly enjoyed listening to everything of yours on repeat. just freaking brilliant. my sister died this past month and i took in her 4 children along with my own 2 already....flew them in from newyork and with them came a bad bout of pneumonia for me. ive been struggling being out of work and having so many kids i wasnt ready for but your music has been getting me through man. cheers.
I love the cuts and the silence, the moments of reflection you left allow the emotion of the piece to sink in, the sound production on the props is perfect, the music ended and I'm writing this in quiet but I still feel it. Well done all around.
A line from the Twenty One Pilots, song Car Radio, where one of the lines says, "Sometimes Quiet is Violent". Is where my thoughts went with you mentioning the silent rests Ren so perfectly places in his creations, which can have a listener sitting up on the edge of their seat waiting for the other shoe to drop, building so much tension and anticipation it has the listeners brain violently trying to think about what comes next, while also trying to process what the previous lines were telling - teaching the listener, depending on the track we are hearing for a first time, leaving us sitting in that violent silence, where we don't make a sound even though our thoughts are screaming wow! This is incredible, etc. our minds silently racing, drivingvus crazy wondering how all that creativity could come from the mind of one Sick Boi.
I just can't believe how incredible the ART of this is. Lyrics, flow, instruments, set, story. Everything is just perfect. Thanks again Ren for creating another masterpiece!
I preordered the album, first physical album I've bought in years. Aside from 1-2 songs he hasn't released as singles, this album is a passionate and personal art piece, and I'm more than happy to support the greatest independent artist alive. Cheers Ren on this accomplishment, I can't wait to see the heights your talent and dedication will take you!
Preordered some deluxe album to my country. Honestly dont even care if it will be ever delivered :) I dont even have a device to play it properly (maybe ps5, but thats highly impractical) I just want digital copy and support Ren.
I watch the money game trilogy at least once a month. I know plenty of other young people are disgusted by late stage capitalism's demand for violence and oppression, but it's rare to have a productive and affirming chat about it. It's hauntingly lonely to think about so often when most people gave up caring before 20. Money Game parts 1 through 3 remind me that a cultural revolution is yet brewing, and I may live to see humans care for humans on a systemic level.
Leaving a comment for the algorithm. This is a MASTERPIECE!!
You're so lucky to have been there to see it... I'm expecting to see a cameo.
Definitely!!
That guy! 😁
Excellent!! Glad to have you!
Master or slave? Solution: creates masterpieces of music to talk about it all!!
Can't wait for everyone to see this labour of love. Never been so excited to share something with the world and nervous at the same time!
We're so excited!!!
We are all such huge fans of your work! ❤
@Sam Saw your great interview with Joe E. ❤ enjoyed every minute of it. I know this will be outstanding.
You and Ren can't miss and a shoutout to the whole crew behind the scenes!
I love that the image looks both like Hi, Ren and Money Game 1!!!! That's already brilliant ❤🎉❤
We have already seen your brilliant work Sam. You have nothing to fear, unless your fear is being praised. Cheers❤
Follow me down the rabbit hole before Money Game Drops - everything ties together

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 following for far too long and watching you BLOW UP now is so so amazing to see 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 you deserve it all and more
We love you Ren ❤❤❤❤
Followed by the albums and my Glove and murderer cabinet will be complete and my thankyou pic will follow @RenMakesMusic 🙏🍻✌️
I've been looking forward to this, I need this after recent times
🕳️ 🐇
This dude needs to be protected at all costs because he is creating a whole other level of art and we gotta see what it leads to.
Aye!
Not really. He cares the same, he said.
@@kidc2004care to elaborate?
He's fkin awesome ❤
another level or a whole new level, but yeah agreed
Sam's filming is as masterful & brilliant as your music, Ren. Storytelling, filmmaking, theatre at the level of genius. No record deal could give you this uniqueness. Devoted fan, aged 57.
that means alot thankyou!!!❤️
@@RenMakesMusicevery single piece of this is an absolute masterpiece
Sam’s role is just as important to the story being told as Ren’s music.

Does ren ever reply on here himself
It's a crime this doesn't have many more million views! It's a masterpiece with a very important message ❤❤
I'm getting in all Ren's videos at the moment . It's a absolutely top discovery.
@@swietnymikoaj6584 So happy to hear you've arrived! Keep on The Ren train and don't ever get off :):)
@@swietnymikoaj6584same. I just discovered him few weeks ago.
@@pirada74 👌❤totally, he is very talented, without talking/rapping about crap.
His music is amazing and his words are easy to hear and understand, a lot of artists just keep the same beat, but not Ren he makes a great beat up in each of his song. Best I've seen in a Long Time, Ren has his own sound its perfect 😍 🕊🕊🕊
@@pirada74 so true and isnt that awesome🤙
Told a better story in 10 minutes than most movies with 2 hours
Real
That was awesome!
Beats avatar by a mile
Every video! As well as every single song. They make you think, they're also unbelievably relatable to everyone in one way or another! They are stories told in amazing music form.
For real!
I genuinely think that Ren is the most important artist in the world today. I’ve never felt the obligation, desire and the *need* to share an artists work as broadly as I can, because the message resonates so much and demands to be heard.
Good morning beautiful. Good rising . It’s real. We are everywhere. They couldn’t keep us down . Or how they tried. So many lies. Truth seekers are seeing behind the curtains. No more smoke and mirrors. Can’t stop this.
Genuine Facts - his stuff is SO important - needs to spread as far and wide as is possible!
Fuckin yes, me too
‘Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable’ amazing job, Ren and Sam 🥰
hehe.. this comforts me.. If only more people were screaming, then i can finally find some rest.
@@Daeva83B screaming with you, my friend!
Keep screaming. A byproduct of this form of capitalism we developed is it's permanence. It can't be modified because it's against the spirit of capitalism and the way it works.
@@Daeva83B ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,I'm screaming with u
@@Daeva83B aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh, it comforts me too
As a 71 year old, im pretty hard to impress anymore. But this young man has blown me away! Im so grateful to be alive to witness the sucess of such an amazing artist as Ren! People with his talent are getting rare these days. We are blessed to have him! ❤❤❤
I'm 61, and I feel the same way. Ren is the most important musician to come our way in a long, long time. I feel privileged to be here to witness his genius.
What other artist can you think of that is loved by country, rock, rap, hip hop, edm, jazz, and classical fans. Ren is a gift to our era and he has shown the light on a number of other amazing, original artists
57 and I get it 🎬🎟️
wait really amazing my friend im a young 47 and i find REN amazing, fist bump
I thought at 47 I was too old to become "a fan" of any new artist.
My favourite music is 60s/70s rock. Before my time but I felt that musicians expressed themselves more freely then.
I never thought that I'd find an artist that would impress me as much as Pink Floyd.
Thanks to the Internet, artists now have a platform to produce what they want and boy has that produced one of the most unique and gifted talents ever to grace the industry.
Ren has suffered to get to where he is now and although a curse for him, for the rest of us it is a gift.
🎶Oh, reign, reign reign
Rens music it will reign
It's such a shame, the price you paid
But it all lead, to this old money game🎶
The camera work immaculate.
The chereography Pristine.
The Stagework Clean.
The Lyrics obscene.
Ren taking aim.
Money game.
bars
Wow..just wow😮
Choreography
One of the best music videos ever made.
Chills. Every. Time.
Fkg brits taking to another level 👍
Just discovered Ren and I am speechless.....
Can't wait to see everything he made
...you have NO idea what you're in for... Have fun in your new, better world... :) Super excited for you! :):) (Oh! And don't forget his previous band, The Big Push - absolutely EPIC)
Welcome to the Wondrenworld 🌺
I discovered him on TikTok as it came up n i thought.... heard amazing things so I watched then came here n subscribed n heard this at 11pm last night n at first I was playing it on pc in background n on phone. But I focused in but still a bit distracted then I focused in again n watched 20 secs n went back ta beginning n watched enthralled n memorised n actually cried at the end. No FUXKIN rapper/songwriting duo/using intense life experience/or such soul touching lyricals with such an intensity n phenomenal response from many. I have been watching it on repeat n yes I've started going down the rabbit hole n every song so far I've found exceptional n the voices of both are vocally impressive!! Rens n Sams newest biggest Aussie fan!!!!
@@PetalCox I just love how excited and enthusiastic you are... I'm stifling laughter under my breath as I write this -Not laughing AT your reaction rather Feeling the intensity of the awe and amazement from your words. It's just the perfect amount. :) Welcome aboard the REN train! So glad you found our boy, Sam T already:) Happy to have you w/us, new Renegade :):):)
Can we all just call a spade a spade here? Ren makes better theatrical releases in both plot, writing, a musical scores than Hollywood has in decades! Dude, keep doing what you're doing. In 100 years, people will be talking about Ren as much as we talk about Sinatra in 2024. Keep up the MARVELOUS work!!!!
yep
♥
Fun fact: 'calling a spade a spade' from its original Greek would be translated more accurately as 'calling a [female urinal] a [female urinal]'; calling something what it is, no matter how obscene.
Sam and Ren is such a deadly duo. Their path upwards is only paved by their own intentions and struggles, it's magical.
❤what a journey
❤️❤️
@@RenMakesMusic From one chronically ill to another, thank you for inspiring me. ❤️
@Skittenmeow I'm so glad it's shared with us ❤️
Thank you for being a wonderful, selfless human being. Taking time to read replies and comments. You are a gift to humanity.
I hadnt heard of Ren an hour ago. Now im on a journey and my jaw is still on the floor. Putting the art back in music. Im still trying to process how amazing this guy is. Just WOW
your in for quite the journey
Welcome aboard !
Hi and welcome to his beautiful rabbit hole - this is a RENaissance 🩵👌🏼
I’m with you. I found him 2 weeks ago. The bloke a gem!!
Every time I see a comment like this I get so jealous lol. If you enjoy a bit of obsession, this is the place for you. Have fun, it’s a trip.
Just discovered Ren last night and so far I've enjoyed EVERYTHING I've heard from him. With all the trite out nowadays it is so refreshing to hear such an original artist, and one with a message to boot. Just loving this discovery.
You should listen to alot of his older songs aswell all his playlists in his youtube channel like demos (do not share) vol 1 and 2 freckled angels and his retakes theyre also amazing
his band 'the big push' is essential viewing as well
Soooooo excited for you!! This journey... Welcome! :)
My second ever album 'Sick Boi' is out now!
bio.to/Ren-Sick-Boi
As always here are the lyrics for anyone who wants them!
Let me tell you a story about a boy named Jimmy
1 years old and his first words were "Mine, mine, Gimmie!"
2 years old he was walking, 3 years old walking quickly
4 years old he was running round the pavements of the city
5 years old and his daddy told him "listen here son,
You Gota learn to be a man a man he works for what he wants"
6 years old and he’s reading, writing top of the bunch
And when he’s 7 his progression made him student number 1
8 years old and he’s praised for unusual grades
9 his parents pay for private school to nurture the flame
10 11 12 13 he ascends and ascends
His daddy tells him "son, money is the means to all ends"
14 solving complex mathematic equations
15 I.Q one hundred and fifty still elevating
16 he develops complex software code
That detects weaknesses in cyber security protocols
17 and he sells vision keeping a share not yet an adult but he's practically a millionaire,
18 and his daddy tells him "now your a man
This world don't give a damn about you so take all that you can"
19 he turns a profit stocks and shares invest in product 20 double down deposits
21 his income rockets 22 he learns that truth is just an obstacle to wealth
If you manipulate the data then a lie will sell itself
23 a life of luxury crystal and cocaine,
24 he made the Forbes list they're applauding his name
25 and his daddy tells him "listen here son
While ur sitting in your Palace, that don't mean that you won"
26 a business shift he switches business to arms
27 dealing nuclear and shells in Iran
28 inside the sennet money bought him a seat
29 a role of council in the president sweet
Now he’s 30 and his daddy says "you're loosing the race
You're just a servant to the king not even in second place "
31 A big manoeuvre for his daddy’s approval
Moving imports over borders from the exports out of Cuba.
32 moving grams growing kilos to tonnes (Put down champagne glass
33 filling warehouses with powder and guns
34 Turf war with nobody to stop it
Blind eye from the Po-Po inside of his pocket
35 - and he gets a call, "I’m sorry son
But its your father, had a heart attack I’m sorry he’s gone"
36 - getting pissed and abusing his product
37 - eyes glazed, disposition demonic
38 - with a prostitute a moment of passion
Heating up a silver spoon and then chasing the dragon
39 - Getting reckless and hungry for power
Daddy’s words still driving him to kill and devour
Makes a move against the cartel but the strategies flawed. ( CARTEL RUNN PAST SHOT/ SMOKE GRENADE? SMOKE MACHINE?)
They retaliate and leave him in a hospital ward
A bullet buried in the vertebra and one in the leg
The doctor sighs and says I don’t think you’ll be walking again
Let me tell you a story about a boy named jimmy
He was 40 and he cursed the words mine mine gimme
41 he wasn’t walking 42, not walking quickly
43 never running round the pavement of his city
44 inside his palace with a mountain of gold
But the riches turn to rubble when perspective evolves
Weighing heavy on his conscience is the value of gold
A Lamborghini for a life, trading money for souls
But jimmy followed the code inside the land of the free
Put your hand inside the cookie jar take more than you need
And his is example is exaggerated versions of me
- [ ] And its a version of him and its a version of she
And its a version you there’s no escaping the blame
The way we live is parasitic fuck the money and fame
Cut the music
This ain’t entertainment, this is real life
The way we live is lunacy, community it declines
Hyperpolerised - always fighting then we divide
Truth is less important than the money that we designed?
Moneys an invention, politics from our invention
They all come from peoples ideas
did I mention
Borders our invention
Law and order fuel the tension
that leads to people killing each other? My solution
Everything is subject to change
We can builds Utopias if individuals are taught to use there’s brains
But if we teach kids in school to always be sheep
And put ourselves before the heard if there’s more money for me
Then there’s no future I see, where the humans survive
Were parasites in side a petridish
With cannibal minds
Mould grows upon a surface it consumes till it dies
And our fate could be the same, so here’s a story for the wise
45 jimmy comes home out of the rain
Soaking wet upon a wheel chair, drinking again
Everything he wants he has fortune and fame
He’s a fortunate fool with an unfortunate fate
With a 45 calibre aimed at his brain
45 a fitting number cause his age is same
Hears the words of his father; ‘such a damn shame’
Then he presses on the trigger of a money game
Thank you for the lyrics!
Done. This was great. You did your usual brilliance. But Sam. Sam did another amazing job and wanted to shout out to him some more.
Take a bow Sir, you’ve outdone yourself yet again 💯
❤❤❤
Can not wait!
Awhile ago i made a comment saying Jenny and Screech was peak for Ren. He replied to my comment saying "wait for money game part 3" He wasn't kidding, this is master class. Love seeing this dude break through on the billboards. Keep climbing Ren, we will be with you the whole way up!
Right?? My current all time favourite is Hi Ren. Or maybe Suic*de. Maybe this one. Or any other one of his songs really! 😅
Can't wait what else he has in store!
Only just discovered this lad and his music has a dark beauty and genius to it.
Anyone else think Ren should make a full on stage musical?
I agree, maybe after a successful Netflix season or two..
Apparently Andrew Lloyd Weber does, and considering that's more his wheelhouse than mine, I'm going to say yes!
The world could not handle his level of talent.
Goodness no.
If he does and doesn't call it a Rensation, or Renditions, Renegades or other Ren favoring names sake, he would be throwing away some good advertisement of his brand because we all know it would capture the audiences it played to as well as the critics. How could they not give it the acclaim he's deserving to receive on any and all his creations.
Can we talk more about what a masterpiece the piano in this song is?! The piano could almost tell the story without the lyrics. It's so good.
So great to see you finally getting the recognition you so hugely deserve!
the seashells... luigi and his seashells...
Wtf .... wnd the capitalism . Fuck the fame
@@lip345quite historic aint it
And it's all because of luigi
Ren... this is pure insanity. I mean there's no scale to measure your talents. You're a poet. A singer. An actor. A philosopher. My god Ren what a story what a performance! I'm on my knees speechless.
As a musician myself, my favorite artists are the ones who force me to pay closer attention, the ones who make me feel something. You've done it again.
means alot mannn!!! thanku❤️
@@RenMakesMusic I am hoping your return to your art means you are feeling better!
Our society has a much better chance at healing, with your voice and art disturbing the comfortable... and bringing comfort to those of us who have long been disturbed by our profoundly sick society.
Thank you for refusing to be quiet.
This young fellow has a great future. Only if our world doesn't hold him back for the agenda. 🌹
@@JeremySmith-sx2oz I agree with Rem. If we continue like this, we, as humans, don`t have a future. I am gratefull for discovering Rem, one of the best storytellers. The world needs more Rems and less Rihanas, Beyonces and similar craps.
@@RenMakesMusicthe world needs more ren you can change minds don’t give up ever bro talent is an understatement the best artist don’t get fully known till they are gone sad but true just know you that guy.
This is incredible to those who found this at the right time. The dark isn’t so dark when someone else can breath light in to it.
Every song, every lyric i hear from Ren brings raw emotion. I lost my nephew, my child 2 years ago on Saturday, to drugs, but i found Ren. He makes me feel again. What an incredible human he is. Love you Ren, please keep making me feel human again.
And the website link brings you to this video. That’s a cute trick. 😂
He brought me back to music and humanity. I hope he realizes how much that he has helped so many people.
This isn't a song, this is a message, a great shout of human emotion. A piece for the ages!
Tbh I think Rens songs are...yes a message, but every song has his heart and soul pouring out. God knows what his IQ is !!!?
On Love Music pt2 , he gets every Bond film in to make sense with his lyrics....pure gey
Genius not gey lol
@@StephenBlay-s9b IQ IS FAKE ITS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT THAT WAS BUILT TO FAVOR WHITES. So who cares about IQ?
I really love the way Ren straight up tells you the message. It’s upfront and he quite literally tells you that “this is not entertainment.”, but instead it’s a message which feels as though it’s being told directly to you. You can really see how the passion flowing from every frames of the video and every second of the song. Ren, you inspire me and hopefully have inspired a whole generation. Please keep up the good work.
Totally agree my friend 👌
I was also mesmerised when he honestly said "This is not entertainment" . He's delivering a message to the world not only through powerful lyrics but also a convincing performance, which is frankly quite rare to find among artists nowadays .
Just now discovered this man. You have a new fan, Ren! You sing the truth with no filters, and this needs to be seen worldwide! Salutations From a French man in Quebec, Canada!❤
KUDOS to Ren and Sam. You guys basically condensed a 2 hour biopic into a 10 minute music video. Just wanted to take a moment to apreciate the artistic feat apart from the message. Videos like this are why I love TH-cam so much as a viewer.
Just amazing 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
What’s the biopic? I’d be really interested to watch it
Whats the biopic?
Guys I think he's saying this could be a biopic.
@@tropport exactly. I meant to say that this story might as well be a full 2 hour biopic and would have had me glued to my seat. Condensing that down into a 10 minute video the way they did here? It is just a mindblowing artistic feat on its own. And I propose that this is only possible independently on youtube. I can't imagine any major label greenlighting this.
Man, never songs of 9 minutes were so short for me. Great Job Ren! This is art!
Wow! I didn't even realize it was 9 minutes till I read your comment. I was so mesmerized by his storytelling and talent
17 for me....1 min left 😅
Right, I didn't have 9 mins to spare to watch it last night and now that I did, it flew by!!
The beauty of this type of artistry is the suspense tied in with emotion of the story teller. Every time I listen to Ren's work it blows me away. Keep doing what you do!
He articulate art in an amazing way for sure👍🏼
i never had heard about this man.... and today is a happy day for me. this man dont rap or sing..... hes making art. such a diferent way of storytteling. And the clip man , the guy behind this camera is a genius 2.
much freaking love from portugal.
keep making art.
U touch my soul brother, GOD bless you
This song is something else, but also the way Ren ties things together is subtle and amazing.
“Rain, rain, rain / A storm it comes our way” At the end, he’s out drenched in the rain.
“And those who rise through distorted lies.” We learn the story of Jimmy and his climb to power.
And finally, what hits it home for me, “Poison in the veins” Later in life, Jimmy turns to drugs and alcohol, which linger in the bloodstream.
This is a work of lyrical/compositional art.
Also. Once he's an adult every 5 years he mentions his father. Dudes a poetic and wizard. No musician weaves a story like he does.
Banksy of music
Listen to fj outlaws song the addiction. It'll hit home now after hearing this masterpiece as well.
I’m an old man who’s dealt with my mental health for most of my life. Being diagnosed with schizophrenia not long ago I relate to Ren. Real or not I feel he has a great grasp of the struggles I deal with everyday. Whatever your story Ren, keep making music, to me at least, it makes a difference and I feel. Thank you.
what do you mean ‘real or not’?
@EurekaX all art, including science fiction, has reality. Here, Ren uses a story to talk about how hunaity's greed is global self destruction.
This is quite seriously one of the greatest things I’ve ever heard. The way you write this song forces listeners to hear the lyrics and what story is being told. It’s a complete departure from the previous songs. The other two were comparatively upbeat, but this one is just a swarm of emotion that won’t stop coming. Massive, MASSIVE round of applause to you. Have fun making history dude
✌& 🧡
This guy is not just a story teller but a freaking teacher. Clearly wise beyond his years
Yep
Right break her lmao
The cinematography, choreography, art & production value is off the charts. The entire team has shot light years beyond what you've done heretofore. I can see many awards and accolades in thy immediate future.
The fluidity of this work is perfection
This music video is beyond impressive! This is the pinnacle of one-take cinematography. And Ren you and your team pulled this off absoloutely beautifully. Maddest of respect.
appreciate that!!!!❤️
With all due respect to Samuel, Ren, and the rest of the crew for this, I think I have to still give Russian Ark credit for the pinnacle of one-take cinematography. This is damn good, though!
Is… is this all one take?? As someone who has done a LOT of film I’m obsessed with this. Ik you can fake that now but this REALLY looks like all one take. Ren is legit a genius and the set director ain’t bad either. Just plain wow.
Two takes actually, but nicely edited. Check his channel there is the bts video by Wolf
Hi Ren is one take and Money game pt 1 is also a one take. One took 4 shoots. The other took over 800. Both are absolutely incredible.
@@moonmessiah9368the man is most definitely dedicated to his craft and what a spectacular craft it is as well.
It just gets better every time I watch it lok
there is a cut at 1:34
Amazingly each part gets better then the privious, it shows that you aren't just lucky, but that you can actually make great music consistently
THE most anticpated Ren track of all time. BRIIING IT!!!
Absolute masterpiece. From every word to every shot scene in one take. The movements of people to the rain dropping to the actual story telling bringing it to life.
Thank you Ren, Sam and team for the most influential art I’ve ever seen.
Last two hours have blown my mind.
Ren never ceases to amaze me with his brilliant song writing, absolute chills when he calls to stop the music. Thank you for everything you do Ren. You inspire me on a daily basis. Keep up the good fight. -Ryan
YO NO WAY I DIDNT KNOW YOU LIKE REN LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
not a name i expected to see in a ren comment section
This song is absolute gold, I agree
Never thought i'd see you here
bro 💀aint no way tewity commenting
since discovering your music there hasn't been one thing you have done that isn't amazing and the fact you can do some many different types of music 😮😮😮 Please never stop
Could it be real? Could it be Ren? Could it be hyped again and again. Something to steal? Something to lend? Oh, I'm so psyched I can not pretend.
Brilliant comment. I even read it with his cadence 🤣
Me too
A like for the cleverness!
I sang it as well
That’s insane - as others have commented - that is so Ren - as I read it in my head i am hearing REN’s voice. Crazy
Ren, you have solidified your status as the most important artist today. This is just sensational.
What do you even call this?? “Song” doesn’t exactly do it justice, right? Performance art? Poetry in motion? A freaking master class on creativity in storytelling? I’m completely blown away right now…well freaking done Ren! Congrats! Can’t wait for the album drop tomorrow! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thought the same, but that doesn't lessen it's impact, sometimes it doesn't need a catchy refrain, right?
all of the above plus the truth !
Yeah sounds more like a musical
I see it as a call to change society before it's too late. Bravo Ren.
The way he looks at the gun and takes a deep breath, that looks like someone who's done that before. Makes me feel even more for Ren, knowing how hard his struggles have been and yet he continues to pull through and then use that experience to help those of us who need it.
Imagine what would be created if Ren was gifted a full orchestra and unlimited freedom to create a musical. IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN.
Yep, this is in the works, I hope... :-)
Ren-Manuel MiRenda
Yes
Absolutely it would be Epic
I'd pay to.go watch that ❤
As a professor of psychology and a practitioner in the field, the treasure hunt, the days preceding it, the video message at the end, I would love to have a 2 semester course just breaking this down. Thank you Ren for such a valuable experience and for truly holding a mirror up to my face. Cheers
Odd thing to jump on so very quickly- verging on "ambulance-chasing" 😒!
@@sarabevan3468 Keep your opinions to yourself, please!
Is it really like that? Pressed for assumption, i may think it more likely that the universal quest for meaning and worth is often at odds with the ways a person lives or is incentivized to live, and to become introspective quickly after a message that is delivered powerfully suggests a listener that is not in total denial regarding the struggle that is within. Even lifelong students of defense mechanisms are nonetheless at risk against them, so everyone needs a friend or an artist or comedian to turn them toward the mirror from time to time. @sarabevan3468
Ren is an amazing storyteller. His ability to educate, entertain, and make you think is an amazing gift.
The cinematography is amazing! 2 cuts for over 9 minutes is insane!
It is honestly insane and so impressive to see you go between all these different genres in just one song. You are a modern-day Shakespearean poet and I am here for it.
"Hørt! Hørt!" cried the Dane.
Hört! Hört! Cried the German. 😂
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK. right when you think every single piece of his genius has been highlighted .. he comes with yet another masterpiece. Every single detail- the music, poetry, the tone, and the emotions that pour out of it all is so fucking beautiful and heavy and real! He allows you to see it all ..his storytelling is never flat or one sided. We get to be the audience without trying ❤ Goddamn..mad respect and appreciation to you @RenMakesMusic and Sam ..
✌& 🧡
This!!!
This is no song, this is theatre, a MUSICAL, a tragedy! Beautiful!
It says so much - this is a story about parent child relationship, a story about human nature, about our values and our system.
We hear you Ren! Thank you for sending the message to the world!
I am glad I have just witnessed the Mozart of this era . Sweet Jesus...deep❤ 😮
Jaw dropped in absolute awe and is staying there. The wordplay, the story, the rhymes. I have this man down as the most incredible talent in the industry right now.....up there with all time. Insane talent Ren.
Chills. Hi Ren was probably the most impactful piece of art i've found in the last few years because it hit me personally as I've been struggling with a number of diseases, surgeries and health issues for the past 3 years. But this and the whole money game series are just so breath taking in both the quality and the message. Keep singing the songs that matter and know that to me and my life you have made a difference even if only a small one. We have so much potential if we could just stop wasting it.
❤
beautifully said fellow hooman, and i hope you do better :)
I am 63. I was pissed drunk in my little bedsit on my own when I came across this. By the time it finished I was cold sober with a renewed direction! Thank you for sharing your talent young fellah!

If you gained something from this video, I am grateful; I did as well. Please ignore those who will make "smart" comments about things which they do not understand. Ren has much insight and true understanding about things which he, in a perfect world, should not. I appreciate his work and appreciate even more the lessons his work teaches us out here in TH-cam land. Anything you gain from anything in this world is a gift. Use it to grow yourself and those around you. Do not use this beauty to cause pain to another, much like @Skeliton21 tried to do.
I hope you find your direction
@@S1lentLunarwhere did he say he was an alcoholic ya tit
You should check out money game part 2, it’s a banger as well
Ren, you are what people need, really.. Thank you for your music, for real, nothing compares to what you've been bringing, truth to open peoples minds.
I absolutely love Ren's use of pauses are. Examples are the pause before the last line here, the breath taken as he stands and steadies himself before walking through Violet's Tale and the momentary pause of thought in Chalk Outlines before the line "I hope I'm someone else in the morning ".
your comment souds like lyrics to a song. I cought my self singing them in imy head for some reason.
Mindblowing stuff from start to finish. Have never seen something so well executed on TH-cam before. The whole premiere experience was out of this world. Even the countdown unbelievably well thought through. Congrats all
The song is amazing but can we all just appreciate that Ren and that suit work together waaaaay too well
Giving off that Cillian Murphy vibe.
Next spiderman?
Yep. He looks hot.
Youll be surprised how good *anyone* looks in a well-tailored suit
Dude, I couldn't put my finger on it but you're spot on
The art from you Ren is unbelievable.
The way you tell the story with the show that goes with it is totally refreshing.
I'm 53 years old and I salute you brother
the art in this song is insane bro, the camera movements, the acting and just the over all song is chilling. this is the best song i ever heard
Untill you hear hi Ren. This man is revolutionizing what music can be!
@@TheManFromNantucketso true! Hi Ren is easily my favorite song from Ren. After hearing this one, this is now my second favorite, although it’s hard when he has so many great songs.
Ren, I'm a Psychiatric nurse who works with seriously mentally ill kids, our music therapist also works with medically ill children. I shared your music with her. She struggles with Lupus. She loved your music, she is going to tell your story and share your music. We both feel your music can help our kids❤There is nobody like you. You are a genius.
I shared his music in a geriatric group therapy session. The light in their eyes...
Lupus! Lupus!
Lupus suuuuuck I have it too, she’s not alone out here, please let her know Theres a world of support for her 💚💚
@@Shonathekiwipiercer I will. Thank 🙇
The problem is our education system children's brains are like sponges
I don't usually comment on videos, but without a doubt this has to be an exception. This is an absolute fucking masterpiece mate. Hopefully with more people like you we can change this twisted, messed up world and be free from the greed and lies that society has seemed to come to worship. All I can say really is thank you for creating this song, and helping to spread your message. Thank you!
It has always been worshipped my friend, sadly.
My brain just... wow ren your a genius, and this is going on my playlist
✌& ❤
A revolution is needed to stop the madness. Ren is the voice of reason. ❤
Just found Ren this morning. I feel like Ren should create a musical. The story telling in the lyrics is so powerful but the melodies catchy.
Such incredible talent, and amazing work. Flawless story telling. Ren’s really made a name from himself, and to think i found him busking on the streets of brighton with The Big Push. And then went to see their last concert as a band. This man has helped so many people through so many different things. His mums a bright star too, met her on the train on the way back home that night. Such a beautiful family. Much love Ren. I hope you see this.
How was that show? It was a sellout show at the Dome right?
all good story tellers start every story with, let me tell you a story
@@LeeannG im not sure about a sell out, but it was packed, absolutely amazing though, loved it. Very emotional as well
@@four2i I’ve seen some coverage of that concert, it looked amazing! Although there was a fan in the crowd yelling “ren!” Like every 10 seconds, she was very persistent lmao
Everyone involved in this creation should be forever proud
Everyone involved should get at least 10 grammys. At once.
I'm 50 years old, for the past x months I've cried tears and tears listening to your stories through unprecedented performances... what you, Ren, and your team are doing to me is somehow resetting myself, therapy (if I can say so) on a daily basis. Without going on too long, I can say that you make me better, more sensitive, more humble in front of all that and those who make up my life.
Deep bow and respect to Ren and your loved ones who supported you and continue to do so...

I couldn’t put this comment any better. Nothing but amazing.
Jesus Christ man….it’s just a song. Lol

Is there anything Ren can't do? He plays piano and guitar like a god, raps and sings unnaturally well, I believe he can do anything he outs his mind too. Ren is an amazing artist. I hope you keep producing music. Every song you write is absolutely amazing. Keep up the good work.
I am a 72 year old man, once America and now Canadian. I have been following you for going on 6 years, as best I could before your new success has made it a lot easier. LOL You may or may not realize it but many songs and efforts from my youth are reflected in your music. We fought the good fight back then, also. And, at one point in time we thought we were winning, but it was an illusion. It is sad than many of those songs and feeling are just as true today as back then. Very sad. Your music transcends those songs and are put in a way that trike people in new ways. The war was not won. I'm not even sure how many battles we may or may not have won, but we tried and now, I am tired. I do the best I can to help and fight still and your music and words stir me on like I haven't felt in years. Thank you. Thank you very much. Fight on Ren. Fight hard and never give up. Thank you for the inspiration and the renewed vigor. You are doing good work both artistically and for society. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. .... PS, am waiting for my cd to ship and anxiously waiting to put it in my car so I can listen to you on the road also. Thank you gain.
remember thsi one? ¨I see dead people walking around, THINKING they´re alive¨ The Walking Dead. . yes they are and have been MOCKING us.
Maybe the fight between good and evil is never won or lost but is a constant battle/balance?
This is a true artist. He's not just musically talented but also visually expressive to the point you feel apart of the story. Most artists can't draw people in like Ren can. He's truly one of a kind ❤
Yes 🙌 I noticed that too. That’s why well made/ directed videos hit better. Visual representations are quite a site to witness.
✌& ❤
It all clicks in the end.
Bro, you're a bloody genius. I know comments are tough ground, but I can't say enough how important your work is. Music for me is in a "post Ren" world. So many tunes and artists I thought were brilliant until I heard what brilliant actually is.
Total respect. I 100% wish you the best in everything.
If CLICKS is the goal and to be famous ...So the CLICK ok the gun killing him will make him famous?
@@AdventuresOfDetroit "it all clicks in the end" means it all makes sense, I don't know where you got clicking the gun from fam
@@arg1 The last click he got was from the gun duh. IN the end it doesn't matter. Chasing statistics and stats, It all plays into his songs. But I see now that's not what you meant.
Wait until you hear Paul Westerberg. A man that fought the record industry to no avail and shot a music video, playing a spinning vinyl of one of The Replacements hits for the entire duration of the song. He was against the commercialization of music to the detriment of his own career. Here's a track off one of his solo albums that I personally think is brilliant. th-cam.com/video/1_zLzsmh3ng/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pdHc83PdY_klJVRp
the best video i have ever seen on you tube. but it ascends almost all shows / movies on TV . definitely a contemporary. so good
Can a music video be eligible for an Oscar for best short film? Because this deserves it.
AGREED, ad a Pulitzer. And a Nobel price for literature (this is better than the whole catalog of many a writer).
Speechless 🤯
First of all, Sam has outdone himself. That opening shot was spectacular and the whole video, pure artistry.
Second of all, Ren's performance had me on the edge of my seat. Such a dark and interesting concept brought to wonderful fruition in true art 👏👏
This dude is something else all together. Its not the kind if music you put on your Spotify playlists. Its an experience, rhat you havevto see and hear, but especially feel. Not all his songs are like that and some are on my playlist. But with this one, you need to see the video too. Masterpiece and he keeps surprising me. Not just the fact that he sings, raps, write his own music,he also plays guitar and piano,it seems. Thanks Sinead O'Connor, if it wasn't for her tweet, I woildnt even know who Ren was and through him another favorite of mine; Chinchilla. King & queen of England, when it comes to these 2 artists!!❤💟💝💟❤
I left a comment elsewhere (on X) saying that increasingly it appears that Sinead O'Connor's reactions to Ren (& Hi Ren) is an understatement.
@@stonefaction- I discovered Ren a month before Sinead’s death, and found her Ren tweet a few days after she passed.
I’ve bought all her albums since 1991, and it’s great to see artists promoting each other. 🥰
Sinead understood the world well too.😢
Wow… I’m in actual shock right now. This was absolutely amazing. I saw him on TikTok just a few mins ago for the first time and become engrossed in his page. He’s so deep with these videos and touches on things that actually matters.
A straight genius. Spitting straight facts, no wonder mainstream won’t touch him.
Check out violets tale if you haven't yet, those videos are my favorite
Words cannot express how exceptional this is. I’m simply in awe of the talent that is on display. Never in a million years did I think I could uncover something so meaningful, poignant and visually captivating. You my friend, will make every inch of humankind stand up and listen. This is a gift that only few possess.
It should be the case , ignorance isnt always a choice but part of the programming .
As a survivor of ptsd your music just means so much . Amazingly talented doesn't seem to do you enough justice . I have never connected to music like this before.
🍋
Your talent is off the scale Ren, with Money game part 1 to part 3, this is how I've been feeling about the world we live in today, I truly hope your messages get through to enough people to change things. Your talent for putting it into a way that others can understand is amazing. Don't ever change who you are. Thank you Sir.
appreciate that brother❤️
A Geof buys cars fan , peace and yes he is totally amazing musician
Even though this may not be MY type of music, ren has created such an amazing community that I love to talk with and his music sends out real messages that the world needs to focus on more. Good job Ren! Keep working hard and keep doing what you love!
Ren is the artist the world desperately needs to hear right now. I just hope, with every fibre of my being, that our future adults take his powerful words & performances to heart and begin the journey towards positive change for the future of all hitchhikers on this random rock hurtling through infinite space. (This old hippy is glad to see the hippy spirit still alive and kicking.) ❤
Ren brings the truth ✌& 🧡
As a person who is about to become a future adult, I really enjoy Ren and I believe we do are changing for the better. There are some bad apples of course (and maybe ive been too enclosed into very safe spaces, who knows) but there might be a chance.
What I really worry about though, is that, as time goes on, we could become as heartless and as greedy as a lot of people. Heck, it has been happening to me, where ive been doing bad actions and that I k n o w its hurting others, yet I turn a blind eye and make excuses for myself.
I'm scared that as time goes on, we will become more self-centered. I'm afraid that I will become (or maybe I am already) short-sighted, and that I will hurt more people than I already have
Do you have any advice on how I should navigate life to lessen the bad consequences? Like, what are some "guidelines" or "maps" to follow?
@@resuperoLook into stoicism and minimalism. ❤
Love the support Ren gets from other creatures and fans alike. Amazing artists make us all better humans. Thank you to Ren and the others helping him give us art.
amazing artists don't make us better humans. They just help to realize it more quickly. stand up and fight the ignorance today!
@TommyRiffmaster I see your point. I do believe that growth can acure for an individual who has no previous experience on a subject or perspective and actively expands their mind to becoming a more enriched human. Art is one of those conduits.
Amen 🦀 lol... 🐷💰🏆 Ren makes US really think 🤔 bout lots of things. BLOODY BRILLIANT YOUNG MAN ✌🏼💞🙏🏼
My name is Jimi and i fight with Lyme just like you. It has taken 7 years out of my life. Your music is so powerful and gives so much. Thanks Ren!
Keep fighting Jimi, you found the Wim Hof Method yet? It's almost as powerful as the mind of Ren 🔥
All the best, friend
I have Meneirs disease so I understand completely. Stay close to the Lord my friend 🙏
I'm not sure if you'll read this Ren, but I was driving home with listening to Spotify with my daughter in the car and this song came on and she was very invested in the lyrics of this, when it ended she said how deep the song was, so I'm listening to more of your songs with her and she loves your music. Thank you for such thought provoking lyrics!
I really want to say thank you and give a huge shout out to having real instruments in your music. So much music these days are 100% digital, but having musicians playing on real instruments has a much greater impact on how the music is felt (at least for me). As a cellist, i just want to say thank you for helping keep music alive.
Agreed, and thank YOU for being a cellist. We need real instruments, and the deep technical and emotional depth needed to play them well.
I got literal chills.
Such a masterpiece as always.
Playing with the genre, playing with the format.
But always with a great message.
May it find everyone it needs to.
❤️❤️
That wasn't music, THAT WAS ART! Breath-taking piece of work.
well music is art but i agree
✌& 🧡
@@neilm4236 new tracks on rens album are fire. need to hear them.
dude....i had never heard of you before about a month ago. idk how you came up on my youtube but im certainly glad you did. your music is a breath of fresh air and i have thoroughly enjoyed listening to everything of yours on repeat. just freaking brilliant. my sister died this past month and i took in her 4 children along with my own 2 already....flew them in from newyork and with them came a bad bout of pneumonia for me. ive been struggling being out of work and having so many kids i wasnt ready for but your music has been getting me through man. cheers.
Is Ren a musician, or a poet, or an actor???
YES
❤
🎉
He’s a modern day minstrel
He is an ARTist
A bard
@@MsDarkcelt 😆I guess you're right. A bard IS all of those things isn't he (or she) 😂💪👏
Troubadour is my chosen title.
I love the cuts and the silence, the moments of reflection you left allow the emotion of the piece to sink in, the sound production on the props is perfect, the music ended and I'm writing this in quiet but I still feel it. Well done all around.
A line from the Twenty One Pilots, song Car Radio, where one of the lines says, "Sometimes Quiet is Violent". Is where my thoughts went with you mentioning the silent rests Ren so perfectly places in his creations, which can have a listener sitting up on the edge of their seat waiting for the other shoe to drop, building so much tension and anticipation it has the listeners brain violently trying to think about what comes next, while also trying to process what the previous lines were telling - teaching the listener, depending on the track we are hearing for a first time, leaving us sitting in that violent silence, where we don't make a sound even though our thoughts are screaming wow! This is incredible, etc. our minds silently racing, drivingvus crazy wondering how all that creativity could come from the mind of one Sick Boi.
I'm so glad Ren is getting more and more recognition. He is almost single handedly restoring my faith in modern music. Bravo to you, Ren!
Salut! Ma bucur sa vad un alt roman alaturi de Ren. Respect din tot sufletul!
I just can't believe how incredible the ART of this is. Lyrics, flow, instruments, set, story. Everything is just perfect. Thanks again Ren for creating another masterpiece!
I preordered the album, first physical album I've bought in years. Aside from 1-2 songs he hasn't released as singles, this album is a passionate and personal art piece, and I'm more than happy to support the greatest independent artist alive. Cheers Ren on this accomplishment, I can't wait to see the heights your talent and dedication will take you!
Preordered some deluxe album to my country. Honestly dont even care if it will be ever delivered :) I dont even have a device to play it properly (maybe ps5, but thats highly impractical) I just want digital copy and support Ren.
This is the kind of art our world needs. So so badly. Chilling, haunting, perfect.
This isn’t only a song..this is art and the storytelling just..masterpiece
I watch the money game trilogy at least once a month. I know plenty of other young people are disgusted by late stage capitalism's demand for violence and oppression, but it's rare to have a productive and affirming chat about it. It's hauntingly lonely to think about so often when most people gave up caring before 20. Money Game parts 1 through 3 remind me that a cultural revolution is yet brewing, and I may live to see humans care for humans on a systemic level.
