The chorus was insane ! The way it kept building and building. I had no idea that Ren could sing like that - this guy is so full of surprises. Loved the Indian/Bhangra feel towards the end. This is probably my favourite ever Ren song. Incredible ! Love your reactions - you're a good person (Just donated).
It's realllllllllly incredible just to see him progress in the music industry. Can't wait to see the continuation of his growth!!! And thank you for the donation!!
Some of the strongest people on this planet are the ones that have went through the furnace of mental health and came out the other side. Loved your reaction video fellow Hoosier
To me, this song explains songs like Love Music Part 4 or Murderer coming from the same person that gave us Humble and Ocean - In this song both of those artists come out to play. This is what he meant when he told us he learned to relax at the end of Hi Ren - The "beast" that comes out in Murderer and Masochist, and this song, is one half of the duo from Hi Ren: the side that wants to watch the whole world burn. The other half of the Hi Ren duo is the one that wants to uplift everyone - the Ren that wants to do good in the world. Rather than fight the "dark side" Ren has learned to embrace that part of himself and allow it to express its feelings too - but in a way that is still a net positive. He's learned to live with his demon, and even use its power to entertain us. In the process he brings those two distinct personalities back together into one multifaceted, entertaining and thought provoking artist. There is a little madness inside every genius and Ren truly is a musical genius.
From what i recall, he wrote this during a Hellish time. In his live stream the other day, he stated that he'll be undergoing more intensive treatments very soon. ( He's still in 🍁 for treatments). Continued prayers fror him as he faces some pretty bad side effects .🙏🙏💪 ****And, big shout out to you for supporting others❤❤ Appreciate your time & energy that you put into these reactions.✌️
Ren said this chorus is a little bit of a system of a down inspiration. And in his last stream (completely watchable on my channel) he said he wants to do a metal song.
There's a metal guitarist/producer on RU-vid called Dicodec and he reached out to Ren to collaborate on a metal song, and Ren responded and was like "Hell yeah let's do it!".
I have Lyme disease too it’s horrible at first I couldn’t get out of bed and I lost all weight and muscle I looked terrible, it still affects me making me feel weak at times it really really sucks one of the worst things to go through it’s so tough
Loved your reaction Ash! In his livestream said that this is another song that he wrote a while back. He also mentioned that his next album will be going back to his roots (he mentioned a Chalk Outlines type vibe). I love the rap/singing combo! 🖤🖤🖤
@@SlashleyReacts Take a look at Ren's song Crutch - it's one of his older ones but it has some of his harsher vocals and is both beautiful and haunting. The video is so well made too.
Love your reactions to Ren Ash! You're a real one. Have you pre-ordered the album yet?! Bro put the digital at only $4.99! He legit can hit #1 with this album and he absolutely deserves it! Also, can't wait for you to hit 100k! It's happening! You're amazing
Ren Has Become Our Wren A Bird that is beautiful and frail Yet the song his reaches beyond the visual In the face of adversity the song becomes everything we need to hold onto
In his 1 million-subscriber thank you speech, (I may be paraphrasing slightly) Ren advised those “feeling hate against their fellow man”, to feel that hate/pain, express it, then let it go and find new peace. Seems like he is taking his own advice in Masochist and Lost All Faith. He wrote them during his darkest times, then took that pain, disillusion, desperation, depression and frustration and expressed it in songs about killing the whole world and losing his faith with everything. He created art. I’m in awe.🤯
Love my Ren. Love your reactions. Been busy so it took a while to get to you reacting to lost all faith. I watched several but couldn't get to them all but I'm getting there. This one is definitely a banger. Already one of my favorite songs period. By Ren or any artist
2 years old. Last drop now intil Money Game 3 on Oct 12th.This is the one brand new one on his album and he is very proud of it! Album on the 13th. Ren currently itunes #2 behind Yhe Rolling Stones. Good Boi!❤
I love Ren and his music. I also love the fact that I have the joy of watching my favourite reactors do their thing. It's a double(triple ...?) whammy! You, Ash, are one of my favourite reactors, and you did not disappoint this time. Please keep the reactions coming. I will always be here for them.
I'm usually never awake at this time (2:35am here) but I just saw the notification......whats 10 more mins at this point? gotta see how The Slash gets down to this one!!
I hear this as how some people may perceive him vs how it really is for him. Knowing he wrote it earlier puts it into context even more. 😞 I can relate to Ren's health issues. A neurosurgeon's PA told me last year that my symptoms were from 'stress' (I have PTSD), even though I have documented serious spinal issues. Now I'm losing function and balance, first slowly, now fast. It's like I'm becoming partially paralyzed in the past week or so. Using a cane every day at home. But that ptsd/anxiety label sticks, and it muddies the waters of diagnosis. 😞
I've heard many people say the chorus reminded them of a Bond movie theme. I can hear it a bit, but my first association was Radiohead, not the way he sings of course, but the harmonies and the way it builds up and then comes down at the end. Specifically the song I have in mind is Exit Music (for a film), which starting somewhere in the middle has a very similar in vibes beautiful melodic build up and then drop. Also similar depressive vibes, of course.
Great reaction, thank you. ❤ Yeah, you never know what you're going to get next... it's like opening a Christmas present from someone you know REALLY gets you
I googled Herxing ti help me understand what Ren will be going through when he starts the heavy antibiotics with autoimmunity. He is clearing tbe decks while he can, so he is ready to pull back as needed. ❤😢❤❤
If you enjoy Ren's collaborations with Chinchilla you should check out their only busking session. Their cover of "One Dance/ Drunk In Love is amazing.
Hooked on that chorus and I'm finding myself listening to his work constantly.... not heard a bad track yet, the guys content is addictive as fuck. p,s. Love your reactions Ash. 👍
Keep doing reviews like this you'll have a Million subscribers in no time. Haven't missed a review since I subscribed to your channel 3 months ago keep on rocking it.
Chorus is a nip thickener for sure. 😏 So relatable as well for me anyway. He did recently mention not necessarily this song but yeah most the themes on this album are from the last few years being in a bad spot but that he's feeling much better these days and is already putting together the next album which will be more cheerful with a lot more guitar and live instrument vibes which should be awesome. Really looking forward to that! Love ya Ash and yes, Fall is here best time of the year lets go. 🎃🔪❣️
Sadly, unless he decides to surprise us with a live version of something, no more Thursday releases until October 12th. Money Game pt 3 release the day before the album drops.
Awesome Reaction Video Ash Happy Saturday hope you're doing well you look Amazing as always keep up the great work with your awesome RU-vid channel You're the best and I love you so so much 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Always love your reactions! Yeah he said this is another 2 year old song. Besides For Joe, he hasn't released anything he wrote in 2023...yet. He said on Twitch his next album is going to be completely the opposite of Sick Boi, almost no rapping, way more positive, and will have all live instruments. Also, there's a fact that pretty much every reactor gets wrong, he HAD Lyme Disease. He was cured of it through a stem cell transplant in 2016. However, he's dealing with brain damage because of going through Lyme so long without being diagnosed. The biggest side effect from it is he now has MCAS, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. He said on Twitch that basically it means he's allergic to literally everything. If he doesn't eat the same meal every day, he will either go into anaphylactic shock or he won't be able to get out of bed for a day or two.
The live version of Murderer done in California was done about 6-8 weeks ago. As the second half/suicide and for Joe (like you said) also the King Dotta dis.
There is no cure for Lyme’s unless it’s caught very, very early but often people don’t even know they’ve been bitten by a tick and show no symptoms. To be cured with antibiotics you need to be treated within 3 months of infection and even then for around 30% it doesn’t work. All you can do with established Lyme’s disease is control it. Stem cell treatment can help do this but there is no cure that will rid the body of the disease, like Malaria, you’ve got it for life.
@@JonNo86 Correct, it was tweaked for the live version and was probably written the same time as murderer. But it was practiced and performed in 2023. You mean he hasn't written anything in 2023? He is probably writing music but hasn't performed it yet. Well except for the Dotta diss.
Money game 3 was also just done a few months ago and we will hear it soon. So he has been working and putting out new videos for us. Who knows what he has written this yr. He said he has been working on content for his new album. All while balancing medical treatment.
You almost looked upset at the lack of cheekiness from him! May I recommend his track, Sweet Little Lady... or Why My Woman (official video!) Think you'll enjoy!!!! Lol Just make sure it's the 587K version of the first one!
