Wow I'm impressed by your reaction to this song. I highly recommend you dive head first down the Ren rabbit hole. It runs deep and is a journey of pure artistic brilliance
I'm 65 years old and went through a lot of hard times, which is part of the reason why Ren resonates with me so much. (The other part is that I just plain love his music. 🤠) What you said about trials and tribulations is so true, and one of the biggest lessons I had to learn. If I had to live my life over again, I would also invite the trials and tribulations back. Because through them I learned the most and came to really appreciate life. Subbed! (Please react to more Ren and his band, The Big Push!)
Thank you man, your insight and level of empathy is what we need more in this world. Ren is my daily medicine and helps me cope with my own struggles with chronic illness.
I have to apologize, I clicked on the thumbnail cause I saw someone doing Hi Ren for the first time, then I saw how young you were and a new channel, and haven't figured out your audio yet, and I have to admit, I almost clicked on to the next video, but something made me stay, and I'm very glad I did. First off, not to embarrass you, especially the young buck there, I know you don't wanna hear this from a dude or an old head, but you two make a very cute couple, not just in the normal sense, but I was very impressed with your manors towards each other, how you interacted and the obvious love there is between the two of you, very genuine, and very refreshing to see among the youth of today. Second I was blown away at your insight and take on Ren's performance, you were very succinct and perceptive, the overall commentary throughout the song was intelligent and on point, without sounding like you were talking down to your audience or pandering, I feel like you two are both old wise souls. I really really enjoyed this reaction, I just subbed and look forward to checking out more of your content. If you want a quick tip to make your audio sound like you're in professional studio let me know and I'll hook ya up. Take care! ✌💚
You are only touching the TIP of the iceberg... There is NO genre Ren can not do! He raps, sings, writes (musically and spoken word at Shakespearian levels), act, beatbox, make his own beat, and edit to name a few. No 2 songs sound alike. Ren is a stylebender with MANY bangers!
❤❤❤❤❤ ❤ oh my beautiful friends from probably states away , ya know I love your reactions so much I'm so happy that this cane across you guys too. I think rens story will tough your hearts and I'm so excited for all the fellow renegades who are a mass of aweso.e people who follow ren, to come and see your reaction and see the amazing humanity and empathy you bring to your reaction videos. True gems of human beings , you two ! im excited to come back to the comments after I'm done with the video and see what your final thoughts will be . Much love to yall ! ❤❤❤
I've seldom seen reactors who "got" Hi Ren on first viewing as quickly as you did. Bravo! Subbing for more Ren, I'm interested in your takes on "Genesis", "Power", "How To Be Me (live)", "Dear God", and much more! A good sample of how many different genres he can do are his most recent tracks from this spring: "Fred Again Mashup," "Back on 74/Message In A Bottle Retake", "Halftime Nas Retake", (all covers/reinventions of other people's songs) and "Troubles", an original about his struggles with Lyme Disease. Great stuff all!
I am still watching your reaction, He is a lyrical genius and has a tragic story. I post this small explanation should give you a little incite. A lot of his music deals with his past illness. He is very very intelligent and pretty much a regular bloke in his vernacular.. LOL Ren has been through some nasty shit, I copied this and post it on new reactors messages. He was bitten by a tick when he was 16 or 17 He got really sick from it and went to doctors and they could not figure what was wrong with him. When he had joint pain, muscle spasms, skin rashes, boils, internal organs started shutting down, And Doctors had no idea what was going on. He was loosing weight and had constant fatigue could not even stand to shower.. Doctors started sending him to psychological evaluations, They told him his mind was making him sick ! And started treating him for that with some heavy pharmaceuticals. And all that shit really fucked with his mind, He started believing he was crazy. And this went on for 8 fucking years !! 8 YEARS !! He pursued his own symptoms and lead to a Doctor that gave test for Lyme disease. Where he lived it was very rear to ever contract Lyme disease so he was never tested. When he went in described his symptoms the Doctor knew what he had. Ran the DNA test and found it in his system. However it has been in there for 8 years and has done a lot of damage to his body. He can only eat like 6 things his bones still hurt and the autoimmunity may never be healed. He had to go into surgery to remove tissue to generate stem cells grown outside his body then under go treatment taking the stem cells to help with the autoimmunity and help heal his deterioration of muscle, and a very aggressive antibiotics regiment to cure the Lyme disease chromosome. That was in LA then he went to Calgary and under going treatment on the damage the Lyme left.. He is still there until June. Welcome to Ren he is a talent I have never seen. And I have seen a LOT !! He has 209 songs on u tube no joke I pretty much like them all new and old !! His older lyrical videos are great try, everybody drops,
He may have been bitten by a tic years earlier. The disease can be insidiously spreading through the body years before it manifests itself into noticeable symptoms.
@@supertuscans9512 He said they went up in the hills and had a bon fire ! And many of the people that went got sick shortly after, But it affects everybody different ! And with REN it hammed him. Attacked his body and started causing internal damage. And that damage is what brought everything on that he is still dealing with..
All of which is true but it doesn’t mean that Ren might not have been bitten when he ever was say 5 years old. This disease can remain almost dormant and undetectable for decades, it’s often not like a Hollywood movie as you seem to believe, no doubt how gratifying that may be to imagine.
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 i cried like a baby like i alwsys do at the end of this song, overwhelmingly powerful and helped me through a lot. All your comments were spot on :) yall are great , gosh dangit! A good follow up song to hi ren is his song Sick Boi and Seven Sins, and Troubles because they touch on his autoimmune disease he lives with and the whole mountain of problems that preceded that, during that time, and now following the treatments and aftercare plans he us navigating currently :)
good luck on your new youtbe journey. In my opinion Ren is the greatest artist in the musical business today. there are lots of geniuses today but ren transcends all because of the hundreds of thousands of people that have had their lives saved, changed, helped, bettered. no other musical geniuses can say that, keep going down the ren path.
21:23 and that whole topic reminded me of a banger quote: "I judge you unfortunate because you have never lived through misfortune. You have passed through life without an opponent - no one can ever know what you are capable of, not even you." - Seneca the Younger.
In case you didn't notice, that was a live performance shot with multiple cameras. He had 4 attempts to do it before he got kicked out of the location, so they had to edit some of the video together near the end, but the music was from a single live performance.
Our sick boi is a totally genre bender. There's nothing he can't do.. Enjoy the deep dive you're about to under take.. You won't be the first to dive into this rabbit hole.!!! 🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧👍👍👍
Subbing!!! Even before I watched! I knew you would like Ren. Wait till you see money game 3! His piano skills are off the chart!!! The song was also only done with 1 cut!!! Amazing video!!!
Very good reaction. New sub. More REN’s please? I suggest “Genesis”,”Power” and “Patience”, but your instincts seem spot on,so you do you,lol. Again,gj.
Hey y’all. I’m watching you watch Ren. Figured I’d share some info on some mental health stuff. Most people don’t need to know this, because it’s just outside anything that most people run into. But I think since you’re watching Ren, it might be of value to you. Multiple Personality Disorder is the old name for it. But we understand the brain a bit more now, so they changed it to Dissociated Identity Disorder. Something truly horrible happens to a person, like watching your parents get killed, or your abusive father is a little drunker than normal, and he’s just being abusive in new ways… whatever the trauma is, the mind decides that you can’t handle it, so it invents another person to experience the trauma instead of you. Sometimes it’s not a whole personality, sometimes there’s an entirely different personality. But always this new identity is trying to protect the original identity. Sometimes the alters don’t care much about what happens to other people, but it’s never this kind of pessimism. And more importantly, the alters take over the body. So they can take the beating instead of you. They are always created in response to something in the world. Then there’s psychosis. This is mostly a problem with the physical brain. Tumor, got hit in the dead. Ren got Lyme disease, and his doctors misdiagnosed him. Lyme disease is a bacteria in the brain, and the immune system starts attacking healthy body. Ren went 10 years, and they gave him medicine that cures what they THOUGHT he had, but it does nothing for the bacteria in his body. He went years in his hospital bed. For a while, he couldn’t walk (which is why he’s in the wheel chair in the video), and the Lyme disease was attacking his brain. So he became psychotic. (psychology doesn’t mean serial killer, it just mean there’s a delusion that you believe, usually with hallucinations.). The other personality does not want you to succeed. The good news is this other identity cannot take control of your body, it just whispers in your ear. Sorry if that sounded weird. I did a really good summary on someone else’s reaction channel, but my creative juices aren’t flowing right now. That said, I suggest that you react to Neil Hilborn’s poem “OCD”. It’s song-length, and it’s a love poem. Neil actually has OCD, too. So it gets pretty real. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vnKZ4pdSU-s.htmlsi=hxZrzwWgNRLf4EH8
New here. Subbed for more even before watching your reaction. Trying to help spread the word about this once in a generation artist. I think you would absolutely love his Back on 74/Message in a Bottle Retake And his life story is worth hearing. Tragic and inspiring
Good reaction. This is live one-take with multiple cameras but with 1 cut. The monologue at the end was from the 3rd take. It took 4 takes in total. He is a rapper and a Bard. He's Bardcore. He is a Lyricist. He also produces most of his own stuff. Ren has lots of styles.

Loved your renaction, thanks for your thoughts on the song and Ren. Would be nice to see if you go deeper into the Ren rabbit hole. Love and peace to you both ❤
I've been a Renegade for over a year now. I remember the first time I heard this song, I ran into the living room where my husband was and said "you have to see this! Ren is so brave to put this out there." I hear that same sentiment in your reaction ❤
Thank you for the wonderful reaction. Ren is a caring and loving human being that cares about his fellow man and the earth. He stays independent so he can give his message out to the world and will not be censored by any music label. He is one of the rare artist that can sing, rap, story tell, play multiple instruments and much more.
So great to find you all. I loved the insight in time with the piece. And you all were so on it! Looking forward to more! POWER was the first solo video Ren cut after coming out of a decade of illness. Try that one, and try GENESIS, which is close after Power and shares a bit more of his tale.
I have always said" We Only grow in the Valley......... And Praise him on the Mountain........... Life good & Bad is about the Journey! And Love is the greatest of All Journey's 💋🕊️🙏💕
New subscriber here !! Honest, Insightful, Blatant intelligence! And I appreciate it. Ren was pretty good also. I see REN as a Trojan horse , And Through your doors of perception, You have willingly invited this vessel. Fear not the Renegades Who pour from the belly. We are Hope!!! I recommend listening to "back on 74/message in a bottle." Happy Rensday!!!!!!
Ok Just watched your reaction. Wow! you guys nailed it. Never heard that "sewing seeds producing rotten fruit"metaphor . If I ever need it, Im using it. Please watch his Thank You to fans and reactors for reaching 1M subs. It literally changed my perspective on life. Really inspiring. Ren gets humanity Bravo to you both
React to sick boi, the tale of Jenny and screech, money game pt1-3, seven sins, illest of our time, the hunger , losing it. If you go down the ren rabbit hole you won’t be disappointed.
Ren's one of the best new musicians compared to anyone in 2024 or tbh any year. A true gem that writes bops that REALLY make you think, and stays with you
This was my first ren experience 😊 Made me cry He does that often But also brings du h great joy as well He has really come a long way and he will be a part of changing the world 😊❤❤❤ watch
I really liked this reaction. I definitely subscribed, but what I really liked between the two of you is that you looked and really listened to each other. It’s obvious there is so much respect for each other in your relationship. You both seem authentic. It was great and refreshing to see! ❤
I really love you two❤ Yall have such good heads on your shoulders and the way you really hear Rens message Yall are so smart !! Keep it up Much respect ❤
I tried sending a link to this but it disappeared twice lol Go look up a video called - love you cnn - ren They called this song out .. he responded in such a great clever ren way It needs to be talked about because it was so observed ❤ I trust yall can do this 😊
This young man is on the path of wisdom and right on the pulse of self-empowerment. Great to see you two so inspiring both to each other as well as others. Thanks for reacting and posting. You are both awesome. 😎😎😜😜
Another enjoyable reaction. It's totally up to yourselves how you run your channel, but you might consider not using captions on Ren songs, at best they are inaccurate and at worst give the game away in songs that have punches at the end
Take heart , the more creative you are the more you hear that voice of doubt . As Ren says the stronger the light the darker the shadow ❤ Great reaction
From an old fella on the other side of the world great to see to smart young heads together, great stuff and excellent reaction to REN, stay true to yourselves, each other & your God
Great reaction guys. 🌞 Loved everything you said. Ren is a very unique artist that sings, raps, produces directs and more. To sample his range, Back on 74/Message in a Bottle is 🔥 and such a vibe. You hear his vocals and how well he collabs. His last song Troubles, is amazing hip hop and tells his story from 19-26 with his illness. Subbed and would love to hear more Ren.
Came back to suggest Chalk Outlines and I Forgot How to be Me ❤ Love your messages and I wholeheartedly believe there are those around us who want to dim our flame. Thank u for being the kind of ppl who brighten the room and encourage others to do the same ❤❤❤❤
