Whoa!! Ren is ruling my musical world right now!!! I’m proud to call myself a RENegade!! Who hoo!!
Been on the road for years ❤️ enjoy the ride 🎉
Me too Ellie!
I really love the recent explosion Ren has created, rippling and making a change not just for himself but many others ❤️
Oh that’s a great name!
Every song of his is like a really long haiku. Every word, every syllable is exactly the right one. It's bonkers how good of a lyricist he is.
I don't know if it's because you can hear the tiredness and strain in his voice but this song gave me mad chills. Even going through so much he still pushes the creative boundaries beautifully and brilliantly.
This is my favorite song by Ren. How has this not been on constant replay everywhere for the past 7 years? I'm so happy to have found this dude.
and you can dance to it ..at least i do :)
Literally everything he does is on a level that blows my mind. It's like the crucible Ren lived through, is living through, was a purifying flame that refined his music into something so much more than music. An anthem to the Human Condition.
This track has flown under the radar for a long time but is proof the man just does not write filler songs.
Any one of them could be a hit!
So many of the tracks he's been making in the last ten years deserved a bigger audience. It's incredible to see people finding them and just connecting so instantly.
We're so lucky that he really did hold on.
I'd love, love, love to see you and Ren in conversation. Such similar energy. You both lift the people around you whenever you can, even when you have a lot to deal with.
Ditto, I'd love to see that too. I hope Cliff manages to persuade Ren to come and do that busking festival session he'd love to set up
For REN, this was truly his reality. Misdiagnosed with Lyme disease for 7 years by conventional doctors who deemed him mentally ill, but when patients are experiencing neurological symptoms, they very often become misdiagnosed. Lyme disease can present itself as many neurological conditions including Acute Transverse Myelitis[3], Ptosis[4], Seizures, and Chronic Fatigue[1] and these symptoms can be often misdiagnosed or deemed psychosomatic. Second is dealing with the symptoms of Lyme neuroborreliosis, these neurological symptoms often leave patients feeling drained and debilitated as they begin losing their quality of life. Over time, patients find themselves unable to do the things they love as they struggle to get ahead of their progressing symptoms.
One mor for the Ren rollercoaster which I know you will get to in time.
Ren - Ready For You deserves more love than it is getting right now.
Seriously, Ren is the best “new” artist going. Ridiculous talent. It’s just freaking crazy.
I love how Ren is able to pull such interesting flows out of, what seems at first, to be a very chill type beat. He's done this with a few other tracks. As someone who deals with health problems, this song is special on hard days.
Just Hold On
He might have meant it as a message to himself originally but so many can relate.
Cliff, your empathy is very inspirational. legend.
He is so classic. No matter the genre, he's the GOAT. Absolutely Genius!
"do you believe" is another fantastic Ren song. He takes a small sample from the original, but uses it so perfectly. *chef kiss*
One of my most replayed.
Sam Tompkins' See Me is powerful and vulnerable too. Think you'd appreciate the message. (Sorry if you have done it already and I missed it!)
Thank you Cliff 😊I've been saying the same, since 2000 wtf went wrong? It's even more exciting going on this journey with such gorgeous people 😍 semi retired 90s raver here, so I feel like I've found home again ❤ all enjoying and feeling the love together ❤️ 😊
I was a kid in the 90s so I know about 2000. In all my writing I call it 2001 and now THEY are giving all of us slaves pure hel and thank goodness we have Ren and got to hear him because i dont know what is next for the people!! We can hope!!!
Same… I was in my 20s in the 90s and LIVED for underground parties and the music … I am so jazzed about Rens music…. I am having so much fun going down the rabbit hole… Ren is my new hobby
Peace ❤
@@shannonstradford6518 hmm wait til money game 3. just fcking wow
@@shannonstradford6518 Early teen here and the 90s and early 2000s were the best then 2003 gas prices and everything and rent started going up and not this sht. it was planned by both parties. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!the left and right have to come together and stopped being brainwashed by the media and huge corporations and get them with a samed grat plan.
I spent almost 7 months in hospital and rehab last year your and other reaction with music kept me sane, from June 15th till Dec 30th home now for 5 months the music and reactions are so much better
This is one of my favorites. The sense of movement in this song and in Everybody Drops sets up a great vibe. Then the lyrics hit.
Well that's why he is that good he will b a goat in my regards
Thank flipping goodness!!! The world needs every note they gift us ❤❤
❤️ Ren and agree with you about this community. Love the song Hold On. My guy has been dealing with Chronic Pain for over 20 years. He’s coming home from Chicago today. I can’t wait to show him this song. You are a great way to start my day. Thank you for all you do.✨❤️
Another Ren gem !! Thanks Cliff !!
Now THIS was a great reaction for you to make, I am deaf and i miss a lot , but you helped me fill in the gaps, this song was astonishing!
Not knowing how your deafness manifests, I can recommend bluetooth hearing aids, of you can use them. I'm 70 now, got my first aids in my 40's. my latest aids have bluetooth, and the ability to hear the words as well as the melody is life changing. They make the best headphones I could afford sound dull. I'm so glad I've got them to hear Ren.
it's mid afternoon here on east coast, all this new music I am becoming late afternoon drinker
🍻
PLEASE!!!! Don't die Ren. You just got noticed and the G.O.A.T title has been taken.
Ren Is Great, he always amazes me, all he went through and continues to , his music is so Great, so talented , this guy can do every genre, he is so unique, he uses his voice as instruments, his music is real, He's Great...All he went though , he did a lot in those 4 walls, not knowing what was wrong with him, he's humble, real, Genuine on top of it all, he's Ren!!!
Don't forget to like before you watch a video. You can take it back if you feel like it. But it will help make sure the content creators get the likes that they deserve. Most of the time we forget to like the video, because we are looking for the next video before we like. Love to all.
Bang on Cliff. Ripping true artistry back off the assholes. So happy to see it really happening
Great catchy song! 😁👌😊
Yaaaas, thank you for doing this one. One of my favourite Ren tunes.
I think this may be the most underrated Ren song. When Hi Ren first came out and blew everyone away, we were all like "What else has this guy done?" It's songs like this that made people go - "Woah! This guy isn't just a one trick pony. He's the real deal!"
Theyre calling him the bus-king!!! ❤❤
Thank you for reacting to this song. Been waiting for you to do some of his older stuff! All great tracks. Great reaction as always!
Love this one❤ Thank you Cliff X
He is so incredible! I absolute love how you cover it all! This one I listen to a lot!
My favorite
Ren is a lyrical Master❤Thanks Cliff appreciate you always
It’s a Ren world now my friends.
And how awesome does that track sounds when he let's it flow like that?! ❤️❤️
Cliff, man, you are my overall favorite reactor right now. While I love your reactions, I think you’re personality is so genuine. You’re heart is as big as a mountain and you wear it on your sleeve. Every time you offer yourself at the end to anyone who needs it is HUGE in my book. Thank you for being you. You have a sub until the end.
Thanks so much Cliff! I enjoy your pausing and breaking it down, hope you keep it going! See you on the next one and have a great day!🐀❤️
He is talking about more then just the record industry ...................
Love the message of this song. Great reaction.
❤🔥
Whoooo🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 How have I just recently stumbled on him? He’s incredible! 🔥🔥🔥
Love it. Oh boy did he stay true to his word!
Cliff ❤ ur reactions x ur empathy and understanding is top xxx
Man I just heard this song yesterday and it blows me away that I keep finding songs I haven't heard. I have been devouring everything I can find. Ren sent a message to give some love to a reactor by the name "thewolfjhonson" kinda cool seeing his subs climb. Renegades unite.
Love your reactions dude... the way you expression changes as the tracks go on... totally genuine ❤
I love this song. Its upbeat but still has a message. Much love cliff stay safe stay well look after yourself
REN Is A Force, Bless Him. How You Doin' Cliff ? 🙂
One of my absolute fave songs!
“They are bringing art to music… that freshness back.” Yes. And the comments with Marley.
“Seven years ago!” Yes.
I appreciate you! Have a peaceful weekend.
Thank you!
This one's been on repeat for a week now. Holding on...
The way he strings words together is genius….I’m addicted to Ren .. I feel like I’ve been devouring his music … finding Ren has rekindled something in me that I hadn’t even realized I had lost.
Love your compassion, great videos.
Peace ❤
One of my favorites
I love NF and Twenty One Pilots, but Ren is the first artist since Eminem and Linkin Park came out in my late teens to impact me this much. I’ve probably listened to REN’s music as much as I listened to the MMLP, The Eminem show, Hybrid Theory and Meteora and that’s saying A LOT coming from me. Ren is a gift to the world imo.
I just finished watching Black Pegasus reacting to Freckled Angels… it literally made me cry. In fact about half of REN’s songs have made me cry. Hi Ren, The Jenny, Screech and Violet triple threat, Diazepam, Chalk Outlines, Sick Boi, How to be Me with Chinchilla again.
Those are just some that have evoked an emotional reaction from me.
A others like The Hunger, Power, What You Want, Losing It, Illest of our Time and Animal Flow just get my adrenaline pumping, and yet others like War Pigs with The Big Push just astound me at the range of musical genius he possesses!!!
Ren is a MONSTER. Many people don’t get Ren; they think he is going for shock value on tunes like Animal Flow like Eminem… but he isn’t. Everything Ren writes is a different facet of the human condition that we should ALL be able to relate to.
This is up there in my top 3 Ren songs of this week
I have been in love with this song since I first heard it a few months ago, as a matter of fact i was just bumping it full blast in the car just a few minutes ago. Great reaction as always
I adore your understanding and connection to ren.
Class reaction. This is another 🔥 song. Thank you fo reacting to it.
Great reaction dude, love this track. Next up Everybody drops, Girls, Love music (especially part 3) and definitely one of my absolute Ren favourites is Heretic.
#RenMakesMusic #Ren #TheBigPush #SamTompkins #Viktus #RomainAxisa #GorranKendall #CHINCHILLA #EdenNash #JointdaleRecords 🔥🔥!! 🌎❤️
You're absolutely right... What's not to love?!....
This is one of my favorite Ren tracks!
I love how Ren makes new music with nostalgic throwbacks. It might not be intentional, but the start of this song reminded me of the start of the Beatles' " come together" such a talented artist.
Love your reaction ❤❤❤❤❤
For real 🔥🤗
Love this song!
YES! I'm 70, and I haven't listened to much mainstream music in at LEAST 2-3 decades because - worst crime of all - it bores me. Not Ren, not those he works with. They're all amazing. (Dirty Loops is incredible and innovative too). And you're right - the difference is art. Our current system doesn't support artists: they pick very young kids with a plausible voice that they can build a facade around... they don't have control of their voices, either their soul (voice) or physical voices. They never learn to use their physical voice because they don't have to: everything can be fixed. And they're not allowed to express their soul, because it doesn't fit their minders idea of commercial. Ren is brilliant, but he also had the time to learn how to do it while busking on the streets. Few artists these days have much time in front real audiences, much less in front of audiences that didn't come to see them and would be just as happy walking on. Illness or not, he's worked HARD and developed his incredible artistic ear and eye. It's no accident that his performances are incredibly gripping and suck you in from the first note. If you're busking, folks walk away if you can't do that. We are so lucky to be listening to him!
I can't find any more words to describe what an amazing artist Ren is!❤
Thanks for reacting to all of Ren's stuff, especially this song. I listen to this song and I'm Alright by The Big Push almost every morning. It helps with my mental health. You're the first reactor I've seen react to this. Thank you!!
Seeing as you mentioned Chinchilla, I'd love you to check out her song Elements which has gone under the radar a bit.
Also another Ren friend - Romain Axisa and his solo effort - Love Without Feelings (live) is stunning.
To me, Ren is my superhero villain of artists , mad respect, and love Cliff. I will forever be grateful for your awesome reactions. You give so much insight, truth, and empathy
This is another one of my favorites from Ren.
Love this one Cliff! Do you believe is another great one. Right now I’m vibing a lot to Everybody Drops. Took me a bit to warm up to it, but I’m loving it now
Epic reaction. You really honor him in the way you analyze and absorb his lyrics. I have this song on my Chill Ren playlist, which is my go-to driving playlist at the moment. ❤
Great reaction again Cliff.
Noticed you haven't yet reacted to 'Patience | Ren Gill | M.E'. This is a live acoustic version from 8 years ago when he had been diagnosed with M.E but BEFORE he had a Lyme Disease diagnosis and probably when he was at his lowest point. It's worth checking out.
As an aside, I've started revisiting Ren reactors first introductions to Ren just to see how they feel about all his music now in order to see reactor's journeys into the man and his music.
Your first one was Hi Ren on 6th Jan 2023 and you got it immediately. Keep it coming Cliff!! Thanks
Second this! It was used on the soundtrack for the documentary ‘Unrest’ about M.E. which he features in. Having lived with it myself for 3 decades, seeing such a young and unwell Ren create such an incredibly beautiful and sensitive song was deeply moving. A song filled with his now infamous wisdom beyond his years, that became such a powerfully hope filled anthem of sorts for the community. A beautiful gift. It brings such enormous joy to see not only his dreams were kept alive, but to see the reach his incredible talent and music now has and of course his well earned recognition.
He has a very moving vlog video on his channel (near the top) from that era, used as the announcement video for his new album and Hi Ren, with a very moving write-up below explaining it all. Watching (and reading) it really makes many of his songs and lyrics, both new and older such as Hold On, hit home all the more and add extra context. Seeing how much stronger he looks now compared to the vlog also helps put things into stark perspective. And inspires hope.
My favorite REN song if it’s possible to have a favorite.
Ren is on repeat on my playlist just for him lol ❤ he's a monster the live was awesome xx
Love this one so much!!! Thank you!
Loving the Ren reactions. Keep ‘em coming. I’m here for it. But there’s someone else I want you to check out if you haven’t heard of her. React to Tash Sultana’s song Jungle (Live bedroom recording). And to tie this back into Ren in an interview he mentioned out of people he wanted to collaborate with he mentioned he wanted to do something with Tash. Side note you’ll also be blown away by Permanent Holiday by Mike Love if you’ve never heard it before.
Love this track and it is really surprising that this has not had more views. Thanks for another great review and congratulations again on the 200k subs🥳🥳🔥
Check out it’s alright! there is a video,3 different versions! Love this track!Great reaction Cliff!
❤..... Our Boi is killing iT🥂🍾♥️🇿🇦
You have another RENegade supporting you
Brilliant.
#Ren Can't believe I missed this one!!
One of my favourites (although I have many fav's) 😂❤
He describes the feeling of ME so well each attack in my life ripped away muscle strength. Didn't start to show outwardly until 30. He is so good.
Love this song and yes it is amazing that he could write this, with such a positive message when he was suffering his darkest times through which no end was in sight and he worried he wouldnt live to 30... Yes he has held on to all he said he would. I also beleive he is holding on to his declaration aged just 17 that he would "one day defeat the forces of evil" - like a Warrior of Light he is bringing Light to the Darkness in a myriad of ways, both in ourselves internally and our exterior world.
Love your support and genuine appreciation of our boy Ren. You're definitely one of us
Definitely one of my favorites.
But, there are many.
Good Reaction mate. You, Ren & Co are on 🔥
I can't believe I missed this reaction from you to this song, one of my favorite Ren songs!
You really need to check out Ren's Spontaneous Jam Stream from Twitch. It's on yt. It is a longer video but it's Ren picking up his guitar and playing for the twitch stream from when he was promoting Sick Boi, it speaks to how Ren can preform and entertain anywhere and it's capitivating.❤
Bro... his Stevie Wonder remix video is wild! His busking videos are Exploding!
Gz on the 200k subs Cliff,
Well deserved!
for me it's like, hold on life, stop kicking me in the balls. btw this has been in my top 5 ren songs for a couple of months now. lol
PegC nailed it
I'm a REnegade
RENEGADE
RENEGADE
RENegade!!!
@cliffbeats great artists, love Ren. Also check out Labour by Paris Paloma the lyrics are deep. Not the same style but agree that art is coming back to music. Love it. Appreciate all you do!
If you haven't done Ready For You, please do it. I'm a massive Ren fan, and it's one of my favorites. If you've ever been knocked down over and over in life, it speaks to you. Edited to add: One of the things I totally appreciate about Hold On is he harmonizes perfectly with himself while sing-rapping. Seriously. ❤
