REN DUMB KING COME (REACTION) 

details - his bouquet is white chrysanthemums (mourning), ferns (sincerity, among other things), and, telliogly, olive branches (a peace offering). Ren's attention to detail is legendary.

Lenny is one of the characters in John Steinbeck's novel Of Mice And Men, that's the reference. I absolutely swooned when Ren did this., along with the David Attenborough bar. So good! No reference in Murderer to Dotta, Ren recorded and shot that over a year ago when he'd never heard of KD. Ren's lifting KD up, so is Knox, really. Dotta's on the radar, thanks to them. Whether he stays there is up to him. Hope he's able to capitalize on their help, improve his game and grow.

Only Ren can reference Steinbeck (Lenny in Of Mice and Men), David Attenborough, and Rage Against the Machine. He is both a beast and a lovely human❤

In my 44 years of life, I’ve never seen this before. I just witnessed a massacre that ended with being killed with kindness . Only something ren can do. But it’s true, ren sees the facts joe sorta had 1m eyes it’s his turn to actually do something instead of be jealous and hate on others. Bravo ren!!!!!!

The end was Ren just being Ren, but also a little future diss... Ren is basically saying: Dotta you got what you came for, a million new eyes are upon your shit... step up... if fail now who are you gonna blame then?...

Thank you!! You're the first reactor to shout out 'Daft Punk'! Everyone's missing that one! Class react to a class act ❤

"You cease to exist" = 5 syllables.

Lennie, from ‘Of mice and men’, written by John Steinbeck. Also the Kombucha, line, which refers to culture. Fungus culture tho. 😂 He was true to his world, he send him back to school. Physics, chemistry, literature, biology. 😂😂😂😂😂

Ren is always doing the unexpected. That is why we all follow him. It's always a Surprise Party. 🥳🎉🎊 (Lenny is a character from John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men")

One thing I love, is at the beginning, "Amazing Grace" has one meaning.. funeral. But at the end when it plays again, it's because he truly showed amazing grace. Love that juxtaposition.

And then he ends it with the song Amazing Grace.... Love his humor.

Ren killed it with kindness...thank you

Ren is nothing but authentic all the time ❤

AR ❤ I think the reference to Lennie is a triple. Lennie Small is a character in the novel "Of Mice and Men". The character's name is already a double because Lennie Small is a physical giant of a man. I think Ren sees Dotta as the Lennie character, and the plot of the novel is a metaphor for the plot of Ren's diss track. In the novel, Lennie is a mentally defective giant who doesn't know his own strength. He's accidentally killed small, soft creatures, such as a puppy he's been given, by being too rough when he attempts to pet them. His friend, George, has always looked out for Lennie, and has tried to keep him from harming anyone. In the end, George is forced to shoot Lennie in a mercy killing, in response to Lennie accidentally killing a woman.

I said I didn’t want Ren to respond, because I felt like it was no win for Ren. But I’m man enough to admit, I was wrong. Good for Ren, to flip the script at the end.. Ren surprises me over & over again. Hat tip to Ren for truly using his platform for good!! He is just different!!

Lenny was a character in the novel and movie Of Mice and Men, who crushed mice, accidentally, when he picked them up to pet them.

Yo anthony just wanted to say man, you deserve all the attention you've been getting aswell lately, you're killing it with this content man

dotta had a line about no instriments so I think thats one reason he did it that way.

I’ve learned to never have any expectations besides “it’s going to be fire”. Ren sets his own rules, he’s never a slave to what’s expected. Love this shit. Flipped the script in the Rennest way possible. Poet Warrior. You Cease To Exist - 5 syllables. Damn dude.

This is why we love Ren❤️

Lenny is the main character in the classic novel “Of Mice And Men”, he ALWAYS brings literary references. Fucking cool ♥️

Ren added props and even an “interpretive dance” as he called it. 😅 King Dotta said the cake line cracked him up hard cause apparently he actually had cake for breakfast! 😅 No lie! Now, I am craving cake myself. 😁 Ren really is a rising tide lifting all ships. 😊

So Dotta loved Ren's comeback and admitted defeat. He said he was actually eating red velvet cake for breakfast that very morning 😂 so found it hilarious! Now they are all good!

I would SO love to see an interview OR you two just hanging out, talking about life AND having fun. I saw a post from Ren, saying he had poked the bear (Dotta) just enough to get him to release a diss track. So, he could respond. In a PERFECT Ren fashion. 1 Showing, that he could INDEED play his game and do it VERY well. 2 Make a point, that there is enough hate and division in the world. Why add to it? 3 Give him a spotlight and challenge him to SHINE. It was everything that we have come to expect from Ren. Love and support.

i loved this so much. i think it hits harder with no beat.

Ren recorded Murderer last year before going to Canada for treatment. Dotta mentioned Murderer and other Ren songs in his diss. Lenny in a tragic character in John Steinbeck's 'Of Mice and Men'

Was waiting eagerly for this reaction😂

Ren is a killer with Kindness

OMG I would love to see a interview with you and Ren my favourite artist ever i also love your music Anthony ❤❤❤

Ren really is something different. Someone we need. And Dotta has subs now. Thanks to Ren, he has doubled his subs at the very least.

It was like a short film. Ren is hilarious. bar heavy short film.. also, he kept his tempo throughout amazing

The reaction iv been waiting for ❤

I enjoyed this reaction review so much I've subscribed. Ren is a whole different kettle of bees to so many artists out there right now, and I love that getting to the end of his performances rewards viewers/listeners with a shot of adrenaline - surprise at him rising to yet another level of genius within it, and that shot is STILL there for the die hard fans, because he's impossible to predict; add that to his extensive vocabulary and innate musical talent and he feels like the future of civilisation within music. Because that's what's lacking elsewhere, progress, insight, courtesy and humanity.

and this is why Ren is a amazing human ❤❤

Yes, a Ren interview is required, I want to hear the backstory of all this..

Respect Ren! 🙏💪🇺🇸

REN won hands down with talent, genius& love. He replied& then let it go. I love him so much ❤🙏

First few seconds in "Oh. It's like that." 🤣💀 Im dead LMFAO

Been waiting for your reaction. Love that you picked up Daft Punk reference. Loved watching this whole situation play out, learn a bit about battle rap and be reminded that Ren is in his own lane. Thanks Anthony. Hope you get the interview….would enjoy seeing you guys chat.

I just love the smile of like a proud uncle on your face while listening to Ren. Love this guy

Loving it I’m subscribing finally my friend. Your there with Knox man 💙

Lenny is one of the two main characters on Of Mice and Men a giant of a man with immeasurable strength child like intelligence and no understanding of conscience. He crushes things animals and people without malice or intent such as the dead mice he likes to pet 😢

Lenny is in the book called "Of Mice and Men" He's a huge mentally disabled guy that tries to gently hold a puppy but unintentionally squeezes the life out of it. Great reaction.

Lennie is a character in the novel Of Mice and Men. Lennie loved soft animals but had a bad habit of accidently crushing them.

Yo Anthony been waiting to catch your reaction. Woke up to see Rens this morning and caught Doms & Cliffs reaction so far. Felt exactly the same as that singer reacts opinion. Dude loved it. Man is Ren quiet and artist. Brilliant how he chose his approach. Truly original and frickin badass man. Ok ready to catch your view. Hope your day is great . Btw thanks for your prayers . Lost my loved one night before last but it's life ya know none the less appreciate it.✌️

AMAZING GRACE on the bagpipes....is the icing on the cake.

Lenny is character in book of mice and men. Great reaction as always.

I was looking forward to your reaction! There isn’t anything like the smile on your face when Ren surprises or impresses you 😏 I really hope Ren takes you up on the invitation for a conversation. I know we were all curious to see the approach Ren would take. This was clever and hilarious. He honored the hip hop battle rap culture, sharpened his pen, and wasn’t afraid to step into the ring. He threw some wicked punches💥 🥊 But then he flipped the script and stayed true to his message of unity and lifting others up, rather than tearing each other down. Dotta’s subscribers have doubled as a result of Ren’s track. And even Dotta gave Ren props and respect on Dotta’s community post. I’m sure Michelle will punch back, but I doubt Ren will give him much attention. Dotta popped onto RedTop Reactions livestream and said the cake bar had him rolling because he had red velvet cake for breakfast 😹

Ren, we want to see this interview happen 🙏 lol ❤❤ Nice reaction you actually cleared up some of things he was saying ❤❤

I dont know if anyone said this yet, but for the Murderer line it was in response to the line in Dotta's diss where he said hes gonna become one because he was gonna kill Ren on his diss. Also, you've become one of my favorite reactors. You get it and i love your passion with it, plus your voice is butter! Much love 💕

Yayy! I've been anxiously awaiting your take on this! (Also, how did I become so obsessed with this saga... lmao)

This shizz was STR8 up off the cuff 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Ren technically not even a battle rapper & this cat is talented as hell he slaughtered it!!!! Funny as shizz didn't even waste time makin a beat 4 or puttin a beat to it....he's a beast on the rise 💯🤯🤙💪 🎤🎧🎶 Plus in the end despite stating his case extended the olive branch 4 peace & even showed love & respect. Ren is a Real One 🔥 #RenIsSavage #AnthonyRayReacts #HipHopDissBattle

Thank you for bursting out in "Killing in the name of", that happened in my head too. Honestly the whole reaction was a great break down. You know your shit.

class act to the end

He just Killed Dotta's Hate with Love 💘 and signed out with Amazing Grace... "Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that." MLK Legend. 💖 Ren is next generation Warrior of Light 🦾❤️‍🔥 Am looking forward to a Ren interview with you as an Honorary Avengers member!

Just the most Ren response possible. Kills the guy with violence and kindness on the same track. I have never heard a diss track that ended with a genuine gesture of goodwill and, as you said in your reaction, an "alley-oop" that gives him a real second shot. This dude is one of a kind.

How can anyone Not love this kid?!

Man you're one of the best reactors. Love your takes. Never stop, please

Congrats on hitting 200k subs. Keep pushing, much respect from Melbourne Australia. 🙏 🌏 💙

That was a great reaction! I enjoyed watching you watching Ren!✌🏻🫶🏻❤️‍🔥

This is why no one f***s with a warrior bard - they will take you down. Ren is smart, witty, talented and a legend in his time. The fact that Ren then can take it to the next level and chooses to eschew the hate. Love this man so much!!!!

I really enjoyed the whole put down the Cake/little bit of Steak on my plate (since Ren is on that Paleo diet)/Beef/Butcher/Butchering the culture/ You aint brewing Kombucha scheme. You literally brew cultures to make Kombucha.

The bag pipes made me lose it.

Watching you have fun with this was really enjoyable 😂 That little grin that kept creeping up was telling tales 🤭 And what a unique Ren comeback. Pissed on a corpse at the beginning, dug him up, cleaned him up and gave that dead body new life 🤯 Today is your second birthday, Dotta

Ren recently mentioned that he wrote Murderer a year and a half ago and sat on it. So no, there's no Dotta references in the song.

Also, it's clear that Canada has rubbed off on Ren. You will never hear more apologies in a diss. Sorry, eh.

That was funny as hell. The Michelle Show. Watching you walk off cracking up was hilarious. Did that the first time I watched it. 😂

I'm stoned and when you started singing killing in the name of, it sent me into a giggle fit, was really funny haha

15:10 Murderer was written 2 years ago. I can't imagine that Ren knew Dotta then and used him for that.

Love your reaction 😍✌️ gotta love the Ren way.. Kill with kindness 😂

Great reaction😊Ren proves he can battle then explains why he doesn’t want to. He’s lover, not a fighter! Love wins💕

Your song was fire 🎉 but this is a funeral 😅

the bagpipes are playing amazing grace. we think of it as a funeral song but if you look at the lyrics it's talking about how all things are possible though gods amazing grace. and the flowers Ren has in the beginning, once again he sets up whats going to happen if you pay attention. everyone always says Ren's twists are so surprising, they arnt, they are right there in plain sight all you have to do is look

Ren tears him down and builds him back up

“Flick of the Wrist” is a 1974 diss song from Queen,

The epitome of "be the better man". Ren IS the better man in so many ways.

Loved your reaction Anthony. Hope you get the Ren interview, that would be amazing. ❤

“Kombucha can really help feed and increase that good, healthy gut bacteria, which can help decrease any bad bacteria,”

This might be my favorite reaction you’ve done. 🤣 This was so funny. Loved you breaking into Killing In the Name too. 🤘🏻❤️🔥

Somehow Ren surprised us all again. Would love to hear an interview with you and Ren. Your Knox interview was outstanding.

I would live to see Ren intervieq with you. Two of my favorite voices. I think Ren killed it abd stayed true to himselfcand ALL of his fans.

Love your reactions and the love you throw into the world!

I love your break down. You have such good ears and catches everything. I have been waiting for your reaction and am not disappointed. Thank you so much. Ren is a funny man. 😁

Lenny is the character in Of Mice and Men,he crushes skulls 😂

REN doesn’t lose sleep in the whispers of sheep ❤

Ren dug up the body and desecrated the corpse. 😂 love that in true Ren fashion he was laughing and apologizing through most of it.

I love your reactions so much. Thank you! Helping the algorithm here.

The reference to Dotta in Ren's murderer, he had Dottas name stuck onto the punching bag he was hitting i believe.

Lenny is a character from Of Mice and Men. His ability to exercise word play is legendary.

Ren put it all on Dotta. Sent him all the eyeballs so the pressure is on him to do something with it and capitalize because if he doesn't its all on him for the miss.

You are the first reactor to this that I’ve seen catch the Daft Punk line. I was waiting for someone to. So glad you pointed it out.

Didn't dotta reference (call himself) a murderer in his ren diss? Im pretty certain there were no references to dotta in murderer as ren actually filmed that before hi ren.

AR: That was the most Ren response Ren could've done... Yep- All the way the way through: the humor, the heat, and the heart.💛

Damn, I could hear you cover a whole ass RATM song now 😂

6:50 "You keep talking about skin color. That idea is so dated, bro." 100% agree with you AR! Love your discussion Anthony! 🙂❤

I made a comment somewhere where I joked about Ren travelled back in time a year to diss Dotta in Murderer word playing Dotta and daughter who preceded to swallow it like a Toblerone. Maybe was that you were thinking of bro.

When you lifted your glass up to drink as he started the viagra line, I wanted to shout ‘wait’ because I didn’t want you to spit it all over as you heard the rest of the line! First time checking out your oage and subscribed almost immediately

Great reaction. Really been enjoying your interviews - hopefully Ren will be on with you soon!

I love the fact that Ren turned this into his own and is making heads turn - again, with this version of his response. And in doing so, everyone now knows who Dotta is for the first time.

Awesome reaction. Im surprised how many are surprised but not surprised by Ren's response. He cant just release a veideo bout raising the light then come backannd be a complete twat. He did it with the savagery the diss requires then flipped it to kill him with love. Pefect reposte Ren. We knows it.
