Samual who films most of REN’s video did an interview where he talked about the Losing It. Sam mentioned REN did most of the filming and all the editing himself. He said REN is very multitalented not just with music but also with film. Thank you for your reaction, I’ve been waiting for this one. Your reaction was worth the wait. I would love for you to react to Back on 74/Message in a bottle RETAKE
I didn't make the connection because not a wrestling fan, but someone described the Hardy Boys on an Illest reaction the other day, and Ren's description of meeting Joe is ... memorable, shall we say 😂 Your comment connected the two. Thanks ❤
To me one of the craziest parts of this song is that he put this down over someone else's beat. The beat was "Losing It" from an Australian producer named Fisher and it's wild to listen to the original track and then see what he laid down over it. He did make some small changes here and there but by and large it's the original track. I think he also demonetized this track and put it out just because he loved the beat so much. I'm glad you got to do this one finally, it's a beast! You should check out "What You Want" next, it's a total 90's, Beastie Boys-ish throwback and it's great.
@@danielmoore9071 Not lyrically. For example, another homonym is "tare a byte", which is a real thing in comp sci but doesn't add anything to this bar. These "incidental homonyms" (or whatever you want to call them) are irrelevant to the lyrics.
Always makes me laugh how many people stop at that one camera angle in the bed and say something along the lines of, "I didn't need to see that." and then rewind and watch it again. Hahahahaha! Great reaction man!
Only Ren would hear an EDM track called "Losing It" and challenge himself to create a rap - about beings who lose it - on it (a Ren retake). The whole song is about monsters and killers and musicians, paranormals, etc. It's fun and great to work out to.
Gotta react to REN, Wicked Ways, Fred Again Mashup, Message in the Bottle Retake, and/or Diazepam... just get ren in the rotation every week lol Ren day hahah
This one is pure energy, love the "repetition, repetition, rrrrrrepetition" ==>> ANIMAL FLOW! Music video and live acoustic (on a driving bus, timed just between the stations :-)
That at the end is an old filmamker technique used back then to shoot scenes in tunnels or railways, so even if the train is still and not moving in the background it would look like the train is coming towards the viewer and is about to hit the person foreground. It is done with a dolly and zooming. If you go forward, you zoom out, if you go backwards you zoom in. You can do it even with your cellphone.
Man you gotta do that Ren ft Eden Nash Ocean......I know the list is big on ya homie,but I've been shouting this one to ya from when you did Hi Ren ......i think it'll be your fav Ren track it's different then anything you done so far, 🔥 vid as always homie, keep grinding
Demanded it and now you know why. 😆 I have 3 or 4 fave channels that I check out frequently, and yours is one of them. I'm sure I speak for many when i say this. I love your content because you provide inciteful breakdowns, helped me have a greater appreciation for rap, and most importantly, you exude so much joy when listening to stuff that is just fun. This track kind of hits all of those boxes. We get to see you breakdown all the easter eggs, and have fun with the word play and funny bars! We get the breakdown AND the joy!! 💜
I’m always surprised people recommend those tracks. IMO they don’t go nearly as hard as most of his other stuff and several reactors have cooled on Ren after poor performance of videos reacting to them. Not saying you shouldn’t like them or even love them, I’m just surprised people see them as high priority tracks for reactors.
Knew you’d like this, it’s a fun one!! If you want to see young Ren, check out Crutch featuring Bibi. It was done with very, very little budget and is amazing 💜💜
Gotta tell you, I've watched hundreds of Ren reactions, and you are one of my favorites. Your reactions are insightful, intelligent and entertaining. I just rewatched your whole Ren playlist. Keep 'em coming! Power is a fun one.
Thank you 🙏❤ Pauze & Rewind ❤ for your 🐷 Ren - 🚲🐺🦍 Losing It (FISHER Rap retake) reaction! #ren #fisher #losingit. "I'm in my feeling when I’m scheming to be taking the throne" ... Macbeth, a play by William Shakespeare, is about a couple who are fated to be King & Queen of Scotland. On the surface, it is about the two scheming and murdering their way to the top and to stay there. But they would have become king and queen without all that, they are just speeding up the process, and also speeding up their own undoing. And that is the "subtext" of the play, it is time, human lifetime, and speeding it up, and ultimately losing it. In 🐷 Ren's Losing It (FISHER Rap Retake), he mentions Macbeth, "I'm about to go beastmode, I'm about to go Macbeth" just before Ren speeds up his rapping speed to go triple time. Also Paul Macbeth is The Beast. In the mood for checking out another Ren Retake? For some "romance" go for Wildfire (SBTRKT Retake) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bEVfqR5PJE8.html or for some "action" go for All My Life (FooFighters Rap) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mViaIY98gUA.html
Most of this is done with a 360 camera and a selfie stick (with the stick removed in post, though if you look carefully, you can see where Ren is holding it).
Loved rewatching this through your eyes dude. I'm 90% sure you've missed Animal Flow up to now. Video is built around animal farm (Orwell book about animals rebelling and making their own society). It's crazy dark fun and a whopper of a video. Crazy fun one shot and reckon you'd love it.
I never get enough of this song in the morning to start my day :) I love how he made this awesome video with absolutely no budget at all, low budget vids are the best!
Only just found your channel, but absolutely loving the Ren reactions, you are obviously very astute and knowledgeable as well as genuinely enjoying the music... There is still so much out there youve not seen yet!
Love watching your Ren reactions! Illest of Our Time is another one I love to see. Of course Halftime Nas retake, The Hunger, Animal Flow, What You Want. He has so much music out I can’t keep track!
Love this track. Another (which I don’t think you’ve done, if so, I have watched but just don’t recall) would be “what you want.” Beastie Boys vibe, imo. Down on the beat has a good vibe but I think Sick boi, Murderer, Genesis, Money Game(s), Illest of our time are MY top tracks. (Which I know you’ve reacted to most of them) Awesome reaction once again. TY
All through your Ren playlist. You made it to my notifications. Great work. The hours I've put into Ren and his reactors is inapprpriate, really, but somehow it's making me better. Breaking myself down, healing it, and bringing it back to those I love ... and those I've hurt along the way. I can't wait until you dig into his other stuff bc you already hear what he has in him. He frickin' sings in the newest of the old ways. You'll see what I mean.
Great reaction. I'm a Ren reaction addict. I'm subscribing to you right now, and I will absolutely check out more of your Ren playlist. You are charming.
Your channel in my top 3 reactors, you catch it all. 🔥. Watching your channel grow gives me joy, you deserve to be up there with the milli subs and you gonna get there too!
Knew you’d love the flow switches in this and the crazy camera work….one of my favourite Ren retakes. Love the red/green analogy for the flow switches. Can’t wait to see where your journey down the rabbit hole takes you. 💜🔥
I didn’t find a reaction about The Big Push (REN is the singer) - Shot the Sheriff for example, hope you will react to his reggae side too, have fun - greets from Austria 🇦🇹 ✌️
Hey man, great reaction as usual!! As far as the camera work at the end, I'm pretty sure he used a 360 camera for most of the shots, but the end part was more than that. I do drone photography/videography for a side hustle, and usually film in 4k 4:3 30fps raw. The raw is so I can color grade in post, 4:3 because it uses the whole sensor and gives you the widest footage possible, which helps the software I use in post to stabilize the footage, which it accomplishes in part by cropping. Now I'm not sure what software Ren uses, but my stabilizing software called "Gyroflow", will often warp the edges of footage, so it doesn't have to crop as much, but you can adjust how much warp (basically fish eye effect) it adds, because too much and your shot looks all wonky. They call it "lens correction strength", I'm pretty sure that isn't what software Ren is using, but whichever it is, probably has a similar setting that warps the image. Then all you have to do is add some different key frames in something like Premiere Pro with the warping effect at different strengths and you get that look Ren had at the end like the frame is bending in and out. Again, fun reaction, keep up the good work!! ✌️💚
I hope you get a chance to check out his Love Music 1, 2, 3 and 4. My Favorite is definitely #2. He has a James Bond scheme in the second half of that record, that sticks with me years after the first time I heard it.
I love this one but i must admit i often wonder if Ren got a new camera and thought... lets just use all the functions. Also, who raps over an EDM track? He makes it look so easy but when you watch it a few times you start realizing how much must have gone it to make it look so seamless.
Ren has all the flows. And all the cheeky humour anyone could ask for. Well some maybe didn’t ask for that pants POV but a lot of Renegades appreciate it 😏🤣
