Love this! Cant wait for you to hear all the old school feel of "what you want". I am here for it all. "The hunger" and " losing it" are the asked for rap rap. I also have to agree with others on multi taleted. " back on 74" is smooth
Unpredictable is probably the best way to sum him up, honestly. He defies easy categorisation because he plays in all the lanes. Sometimes all at once in a single track. Given your previous and personal experiences, I would definitely look forward to seeing you react to him some more. He has a huge and varied back catalogue, and the renegades will absolutely show up to see it.
We love his older back catalog as much as his new tracks. Wales is on the west side of England. The historic land of the Druids, the Bards, and King Arthur. Where the most ancient form of the celtic language is still spoken in many communities and the language school is taught in. Esp. on the Island of Anglesea where Ren was raised. By music loving hippie parents, until their divorce at which point he and his sister were raised by a single mom. Song "Power" touches on it. Music video = 1 car, 2 smartphones and 2 humans, (Ren and Samual)
Can you react to his band The Big Push doing Shot The Sheriff/Road To Zion/Hip Hop? The one with Ren in red suspenders? Is iconic and shows you more of his musical side? Thanks for all you do.
Ren is a multifaceted artist but a couple recommendations would be The Hunger and Animal Flow for a more pure hip hop feel and Murderer is hip hop with a touch of the Islands
Wales is near Ireland and Scotland but Ren spent a lot of time in Brighton, UK and is currently in Canada getting treatment. He has a song with Prof and another with Chris Webby we are all patiently waiting on plus later today he has the accustic version of Troubles being released. 💙💙💙
@@gshoots4357I appreciate the geography lesson I just knew it wasn't anywhere near Australia. Now I have a better idea of when I was speaking about I guess when I answer if I answer a question now I have a better idea of where to look on the globe for it 💙
Just watched the Hi Ren reaction! Glad to see you jumped right on another one! You gotta check out his band as well, The Big Push, plus he does some amazing collabs and a lot of street performances (busking) and live audio recording
Can't wait till you get further down this rabbit hole and see just how deep it and diverse it is. I can only promise you it gets better and better, it was actually good you reacted to "Troubles" first, it is his latest track, so now you get to see the progression and evolution of Ren as an Artist. Great Reaction as always, appreciate you man!
If you want something musical/radio friendly, check out Power/Murderer/Genesis. If you want some more Ren stuff that has no parallel, the Money Game series (especially part 3) are incredible, while the trilogy tales of Jenny, Screech and Violent are storytelling masterpieces. If you wanna hear him flex on his rapping, the Hunger displays more candence and flow switches than anything ive ever heard. Illest of our Time, Animal Flow and Seven Sins are all outrageous in their structures and rap creativity. Really enjoying your perspective on the first two tracks, you're here for the layers on show. Oh shit and the dark stuff, Suicid3 and others can rip you to shreds for their honesty. Keep it going, you've only scratched the surface of this guys range. There honestly isnt a parallel out there for him. Oh, and Back on 74 and his stuff with Chinchilla, light one up, sit back and just marvel at how he shines with other talented people around him.
Controlled chaos that makes sense 🎯 💯 Ren is a masterful lyricist with a very strong pen game. He makes his own beats. Is genre fluid . Plays guitar, bass, piano, drums, melodica . His intelligence is equally matched with his empathy. As you said, the worst thing is when you are chronically ill or in pain and you feel unheard and unseen. When the tests come back as “ inconclusive “ or “ remarkably unremarkable “ you are left with those questions that are answered with a question on the end.
I think you might be thinking of New South Wales when you say Australia. Someone else in the comments makes it right - he's from Wales in the UK. BTW, I really like what you bring to interpreting the songs. The pig mask - think Animal Farm by George Orwell (a book Ren was very taken with), although I'm not sure about its meaning in this song.
I think this song started out about his misdiagnosis. Being told he was mentally ill when it was lyme. Listen to his chapters on your own time if you want to find out what all happened to him. He puts everything out there so people can learn from it. I like your style.
Ren does have serious acting chops, and I hope you see more of it! As others have said, the Tales of Jenny Screech and Violet are highly recommended. I also would love to see your reaction to Chalk Outlines (live) with Chinchilla for another delve into mental health issues. And, of course... The Hunger so you can do some real bar breaking :D This is just the beginning, there are so many more, and I hope you keep going!! Loving your reactions.
Hey there! 48 y.o.Renegade here loving your Ren reactions and can’t wait to see what you cover next. Your experience in the psychology world gives your perspective added value and ensures you’ll get lots of enjoyment and meaning out of the musical journey you’re about to embark on. I’d like to tell you what to listen to next, but man they’re all bangers. Personally, I think after listening to heavy tracks like Sick Boi and Hi Ren, it’s nice to come up for air with a lighter, more fun track like Power, The Hunger, Losing it or What You Want. But you can’t lose no matter what you chose with Ren. He’s reinvented the music game at every level.
Once you get attuned to Ren, I'd like to see you breakdown to Illest of our Time and The Hunger but until then I'd suggest Chalk Outlines (Live) ft Chinchilla - it's absolutely beautiful, Genesis and Murderer.
Ren said the 🐷 for him is like a uncomfortable companion, represents greed, illness, but also familiar in those situations. the thing that causes frustration and been at war with so long is also a friend. But left the 🐷 open for individual interpretation. it is a theme you will see woven into his artistry.
Loving your journey down the Ren rabbit hole. You’ve only scratched the surface of his skills so far so buckle up 😂 For something completely different and a good follow up to Sick Boi, I recommend Crutch feat. Bibi. If Sick Boi is an expression of the built of frustration from being misdiagnosed for years, Crutch is the early fear before he knew what was wrong and thought he was losing his mind. But if you prefer more bars, Illest of Our Time, Lost All Faith, and The Hunger are all great. Well everything in his catalogue is great 😅
❤❤❤❤❤ lovely my dear! Thank you for this:) I agree with person who mentioned the hunger! And his song seven sins :) or his one million subscriber thank you video, not a song but just as important of a watch for anyone who enjoys what he does and what he stands for ❤ as a reactor yourseld, he appreciates you and your fellow channels greatly for what you do and this video is for you too ❤❤
I really enjoyed your reactions to Ren so far and I plan on checking out the other artists you react to. I live with chronic pain and got hooked on Ren because he can relate. I heard all that you are going through so I know you also can relate. Plus you have a very impressive resume. If you are interested to seeing the lyrics to Ren's songs, the majority of them are pinned in each song. Sending love from Chicago and subbing ❤
Ren is, among many other things, eclectic. He has ALOT of musical styles - does alot of different genres. He even has stuff that doesn't fit in any genre.
pleeeease do the money game trilogy, money game 1, 2 (make sure you do the lyric video) and 3 is a masterpiece !! the tales of Jenny and screech is storytelling at it's finest. Also do genesis then genesis live. The hunger and illest of our time is where he's spitting !!!! Chalk outlines is amazing and do the I shot the sherif busking video also it's superb x
Yeah, I feel like Money Game trilogy would be a great follow-up to some of the lyrics (about the industry being cut-throat) in this one. Jenny, Screech and Violet is available already! (I just watched it right before this one.)
Please react to Ren's rap songs, Power., Genesis, also Murderer ( acoustic version) really enjoy your reactions. I'm sorry to hear about all your ailments, I hope you overcome them all, keep fighting.
🐷 Pig Mask: Ren had refused to answer and told in an early interview with one of the reactors that he wanted the audience to make up their minds as to what the 🐷 pig (mask) stands for. Maybe that is a task for you? That said, he answered it in a more recent interview, here: Ren Reveals The Meaning Behind The Pig Mask ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8xFChmxavJw.html
Thank you 🙏❤ Face Famous ❤ for your 🐷 Ren - 💉🐷💊 Sick Boi reaction! #ren #sickboi #sickboialbum And then there is a Sick Boi, Part 2 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xcxm3pCpWs8.html
As others have said, I think Money Game (a trilogy -- could do them as 3 separate videos, or all together as one, just be sure to do all 3) would be reasonable next thing to review... but also, there's a _whole lot_ of other stuff, some of which I think will be right up your alley... e.g. maybe Losing It? And... oh, there's another I'm thinking of, but I can't remember its name and can't find it right now. Anyway, enjoy the journey!
