RENEGADES, Let’s run up this dudes sub count as much as we can. This guys a real one for sure. Great reaction! Your story is unreal, wishing nothing but the best for you.
Hearing your story I'm honestly shocked nobody's ever put you on to Ren, he's basically you. You should definitely try Hi Ren first, then Sick Boi. His album is very much about living with serious mental health issues and physical pain. And as a rapper, I think you're going to love his story musically too.
I have suffered from several autoimmune conditions for the last 12 years and I promise this is a rabbit hole which can change your life and has saved many
This is a rabbit hole that you should go down. As a 54 year old, i haven't come across a artist as versatile as Ren . A lot of his videos are done in one take. A true artist. Do yourself a favour and check him out.
You're a real one brother. Wow! Can't imagine everything you've gone through and being responsible for a couple of young ones?!?!?! Crazy! True warrior. Can't wait for you to connect even more with Ren, his Renverse of talented people and the community he's created. My father too is a fighter. My hero. Battled colon cancer, lung cancer a few years after that. Lost all mobility after they removed the lung tumor and bounced back after that! Full head of hair and mobile again. He not ready to go❤
I'll have to echo what others are saying about diving into the Ren Rabbit Hole. His music library is vast and covers many genres, he is after all the genre bender, modern day bard and multi talented. His vocal styles span through his own branded style "Bardcore" to Rap, Reggae, Rock, Pop, R&B, you name it. Ren is also an multi instrumentalist, all self taught, he plays the guitar, piano, bass, cello, etc. Ren also produces all of his beats and directs his own videos, coupled with a notable skill in performing, both in acting and his own emotive style. If you want to travel this rabbit hole, you should probably start with "Hi-Ren"..."Sic-Boi"..."Tale of Jenny and Screech" (Full Version)..."Money Game" (Parts 1-3)..."Seven Sins"..."Dear God"..."Crutch". Then dive into his videos with his Busking Band "The Big Push" and his many collaborations with other talented artists like Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, Bibi, Orlean and many others. For me personally, Ren has become one of my many daily medications and just as important as the others. I suffer from a genetic disease that has a barrage of symptomology, homebound and dealing with severe pain every minute of my life, so Ren as you stated, is a kindred spirit. His has taken all of his pain and trials he has been through and out of it has emerged as a once in a generation artist and if you watch his interviews, one of the most humble and intelligent people you will ever get to know. Welcome to the ranks of the Ren-egades, you will find one of the most positive and supportive communities on the internet.
I have many diseases but what really tears me down is the chronic pain I live with. 15 years now. Ren is the Messenger of Hope for all of us who need it. Thank you for sharing. Hi Ren is another good way to start the Ren rabbit hole 🙂 Subbed for more Ren
Your first reaction to Ren and it’s the song he wrote exactly for people in similar troubles like you? Ren is hero. He is using his growing powers and platform for so much more than simply creating brilliant music. Ren has said that he always had this feeling that he was meant to change the world for the better. So much that he defiantly yelled a challenge to evil into an empty room. And then he got sick… Ren has now shared the full story of his health journey in 8 video chapters leading up to the release of this song and what a journey it has been. If anyone hasn’t already watched them, I highly recommend you do. You definitely should since it will probably be very relatable. With all the chapters he is showing immense strength in sharing his story that is so hard to tell, being vulnerable and telling it because he hopes it will help others and raise awareness. And here he is with another rendition of that story, now told through music with a fire beat and delivering a message of hope. The world needs Ren 🐰🕳️
Ren will touch your soul & feed your need for bars. Mans a genius. The only artist I can compare him to is Prince. He has the lot !! You’ll absolutely adore him and his message and his knowledge of hip hop.
Your channel will be recognised by the renegades, I shared this video to Rens page and I hope this was okay, Rens fan base is as humble as they come and I think we all can learn from you and you can learn from them.
Thank you for sharing Steven 👍🏻🥰 came straight to it. Face Famous, you Sir are a legend & a beacon of hope just like our “Boi” Ren. Please consider checking out his catalogue & story, he has saved many & given hope back to me. Thank you for sharing your story, I relate to it all too well & you are right when you say mind set, keeping that blood pumping, being prepared, it is what it is & the best bit - too busy to die, got too much to still do!! Love it man, and as Ren would say, Big Up to you 👏👏❤️❤️ Keep fighting that good fight, much love & respect from Australia 🙏🥰
@@FaceFamous i appreciate you for doing that bro as it’s not nice reliving our struggles and I think this can be a great way for you to reach out to the renegades because it’s what we do unite and spread the good word
Ren's music makes the world a better place He has helped many not feel alone His music is so good its addictive Thanks for reacting and sharing your story sympathy from someone else who understands the pain
You should watch his Chapters he put out prior to releasing this. He did one per day for 8 days. They are on his 2nd channel, Renmakesstuff. He's been through hell. Still dealing with it, and been in Canada for over a year receiving medical treatment. Also, he's got some amazing interviews. He's a very interesting, intelligent person. New sub.
I’m sorry for all that you go through ongoing. Truly. Yes, Ren is your guy. A lot will tell you to listen to “Hi Ren” as your next reaction but his 1 million subscribers thank you on YT will tell you about the man. A truly amazing artist but an even better human being ❤
Ren is a dope artist! I just in the last few years went and got gene testing done, and found out I have a lot of issues, Lymes, Chronic fatigue, and mast cell disease are the ones that impact my life the most, still go to work everyday and have to provide, nobody cares and bills still coming, but I understand where ya coming from and sorry you have to deal with that!
I’ve read so many comments of how people are suffering with pain and chronic conditions and I truly admire your amazing strength and will to live. You are all incredibly brave.
Aye lad he's Welsh but lived in Brighton England for a long time. Went to Canada for experimental stem cell treatment to hopefully fix the covering of his brain which Lyme Disease had attacked. Extremely strict diet due to the treatment coupled with being wrongly diagnosed for years as Lyme disease is quite rare here caused autoimmunity disease and psychosis because of the wrong medication they put him on. Finally he's on the mend and happily become very successful and bringing up his mates with him such as Viktus, Samuel Perry-Falvey (videographer) and many others. He's a rare phenomenon in this age of Record Label manufactured radio friendly money making music with zero longevity
Would love to see more Ren reactions! He uniquely expresses so many aspects of dealing with the medical field, chronic illness (both physical & mental health) and so many life experiences. As a fellow complex health patient, sending you light & strength.
If this is your first REN reaction welcome to his rabbit hole I’m sure you will appreciate all his catalog. The Big Push was a band he was in as well. All🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yea this will be my first time going through his music. Very interesting with this one. I've seen him on my timeline or other reactions to him but didn't know what he does. But time to dive in!! 🫡
Bro, you are so positive despite everything you been through and still going. I have a ton of respect for you, and i wish you to be well very soon. you and your kids deserve that times of happiness. a lot of love Bro❤ Hooo and that F**k little cancer...? You got it Bro, It's nothing for you...
New sub here. Ren, like so many have stated, is a true gem. Hi Ren is where my Ren journey started, and I haven’t looked back. I’m struggling atm trying to handle what life is throwing at me. Ren is the constant reminder I need to help me keep things in perspective. A bright light in a dark world, do yourself a favor and take the dive into his discography. You won’t be disappointed. Ren doesn’t make “filler” music, they’re all bangers. That’s a crazy thing to say, I’m aware, but it’s the truth. Check it out for yourself. Bless you, and cheers. 🤘
Ren lufts us all up with his mysic. He also posted 8 Chspters on his othet channel Renmakesstuff, telling the story of his 8 years of nightmare. He us dtill dealung with brain damage and autoimmunity. MCAS, POTS and constant pain. Howevet he is doing much better. I am sorry for the suffering your body is going through. You arw a light. I think you would relate to a lit of Ren's music. Try HOLD ON.
Yeah subbing. How you hadn’t been put on to Ren is a crime. The more you read about Ren’s story the more I think you’ll love and appreciate the artist and person he is
I've been through it too. Ren has become a beacon of hope for our ignored community of sufferers. You will relate to all this kid's music (genius!) & message. Be well💜💜💜
Great reaction man you need to watch Rens missing he put out chapters of when he got sick.The stuff you were talking about seems like you guys have a lot in common.Renmakestuff is were he put he’s chapters out.Peace out
Please react to more of Ren! Pleeease :) I enjoyed this reaction. Sorry to hear what you are going through. Ren is an inspiration for chronic ill people, he's still not okay but much better than before. He might never get rid of all symptoms.
My sympathies for all your struggles, and my admiration for your strength! Ren also describes being allergic to lots of different foods and environmental things (like perfumes, smoke, etc), causing inflammation, severe digestion issues, and probably near-anaphylaxis too. Eventually that part was diagnosed as MCAS -- overactive allergic mast cells. He developed his as a complication of the 7-year undiagnosed/untreated Lyme disease, but it certainly seems possible all your bodily stresses could have led to a similar result!
New sub here, I loved your reaction brother and thank you for sharing your struggles in life, stay strong and keep fighting 💪🏻 I think you will enjoy Rens catalog expressing his struggles and talking about real life, rapper, singer, producer, plays loads of different instruments, genre bender, reggae influenced and so much more all in one artist and he does them all extremely well ‘soulful’
Thank you for sharing your story. More people need to know they are not alone in their pain. That's why Ren's music is so impactful. I wish you healing and peace.
Wow! Sorry to hear all the pain you are suffering. You are truly an inspiration on how to keep on fighting through adversity. I hope your symptoms ease in the future. I'm shocked that someone can be dealt so many hard blows.
I think im one of the few who loves Ren's music and message who doesn’t have multiple health issues. I bit of arthritis, my diet takes care if it, i have no grains or seed oils. Ive learned so much about what so many peope go through, and i know why those people love Ren. We all need to know about the neglect by the health 'authorities '.
Hi, you're the first reactor I've come across who reflects my own story of relative health, who turned to an "evolutionary diet", eating REAL food with as little processing as possible, no grain or seed oils and low sugar. It cleared up my arthritis (some minor bone deformation remains but good flexibility and no pain), skin rashes, bleeding gums, mild daily headaches, oh and heart arrhythmia, all gone after 3 months. Ren sees his Paleo diet in somewhat negative terms but I think we are all suffering from modern production of highly processed food which damages our immune system by weakening the cellular structure of the gut.
I can’t express how much it means to me to see you react to this. As a “rich white boy” from an “affluent, so-cal, California” family, as Ren says in a later song, “wanna be me, huh? Grass isn’t greener.” Pain is pain, and struggles are struggles. There’s differing degrees of pain and/or struggles. But the fight to get through the bullshit and just be happy, that’s the one unifying aspect of humanity that anyone and everyone can relate to. And now……. Ren. …..
Ren, and but the way, NF, are 2 dudes that can put every negative thing I’ve ever felt onto a beat, and make my negative feel like a positive. It’s stupid how much someone writing a real life, “I’m going through this shit” type song, get smacked in media. “It’s too emotional”. “It’s too depressing.” Nah. It’s REAL. Not everything is a fucking Instagram photo of what you pretend life is. It’s refreshing AF to get artists that are like, “I got talent, but I’m gonna get real real with it. But it’s gonna be dope too”. Fuck. The music industry needs an infusion of artists like Ren, NF, Dax, Tech9, Knox Hill……. All these dudes that aren’t scared to drop BARS about real life shit, and not just rap about clubs and bitches and parties. That shit was cool in the early 2000’s, but not no more. Music historically reflects the culture and the world as a whole, and it’s time for self reflective ass music, in my opinion.
I cant wait to see your reaction to the "Money Game" trilogy. Try doing 1,2 and 3 all in one video if you can. Ren is extremely insightful and thought provoking. Good stuff brother! ❤❤ I too have an auto-immune disease. I got eczema and going through topical steroid withdrawal right now. My skin dry af.
I am crying. Ren keeps leading me to the perfect people. I am early in my journey, still undiagnosed. You are the first person who has ever described the symptom of being "allergic to the cold" and I just burst into tears. You are absolutely correct. Moving to Arizona would not help. I live in Tucson. If I get even a little cold, like walking into a highly air conditioned building from a warm day, I go into convulsions, like a seizure. Last time it happened, I was in the middle of a crowded restaurant. A/C is always cranked up here, indoors, everywhere you go. Just for fun, I have bad reactions to heat, as well, so I cannot win. It's already hitting 100s here and it's only June. Just one of the dozens of weird symptoms I have been dealing with. Listening to your story, I can totally empathize with so much of it. It happened so fast. One day, I was fine and then BOOM. Everything just started falling apart. One thing after another. Five years ago, I was a mountain bike enthusiast and was extremely active. Now, I can't walk without a cane or a walker... sometimes I can't walk at all. I'm still in that stage of the healthcare journey where no one really believes me... except the opthalmologist, of all people. He's the only one who's highly concerned. Hoping that my recently upgraded health insurance will make some doctors a little more interested in investigating. I'm struggling but, I'm not giving up. Ren honestly saved my life and he keeps leading me to people like you...who give me little glimpses into your own journey and suddenly I don't feel so alone. So many of us battling chronic illnesses have the regular, run of the mill symptoms but, we all have our own really odd symptoms, too, I think. I'm learning to deal with the pain and the loss of mobility and things like that a little better than I am dealing with the really weird symptoms that I don't see anyone else mention. Having people think that you're faking because they can't feel what you feel and the symptoms just keep getting more and more outlandish. Like, who goes into a seizure from walking down the freezer aisle of the supermarket? That's stupid, right? But, that's what happens to me. Nobody believes it until they are present when it happens. Don't even get me started on the "why are you using a wheelchair if your legs work" type of people. I know this is rambling and I apologize. I probably won't even remember half of what I wrote here, by tomorrow. Gotta get it all out before my faulty short term memory dumps all of the thoughts that I wanted to express. Thank you for helping me get through another day, is all I really want you to take away from all of my rambling. You helped immensely just by talking about your experience. Sending the gentlest of hugs because I know how much they can hurt, even though they're the best feeling in the world. ❤
Trust me I understand. 1 day I was all active into everything and the next thing, I couldn't move. After all the treatments and everything I'm more active now after years of just work and home. But the gym helps. I stay cold have to always have a hoodie of jacket or blanket in my car and make sure my meds and epipen is with me. But once I got it in my head I'm not letting any of this beat me I was able to reclaim my old self back and get to doing what I love doing. I have my good and bad days. But over all I'll try to do my best to succeed and encourage yall to do the same. You're not alone at all. ❤️❤️🫡💯🙏❤️
There is a story. The story. Ren has suffered more than most! We all think we have but we don’t touch what he suffered through. Ten years of misdiagnosis and treated for wrong illnesses send his undiagnosed Lymes disease into a tornado and combined with treated with dozens of wild meds caused a state of psychosis and bedridden for ten years. Complete psychosis. Dive into this rabbit hole. You will never have discovered anything close to what’s about to happen in your world! Let’s go!

Oh shoot!!! Thanks for all that. I might have to just meet the man on the chat as well. We both go through passion. So that would be a real good topic that me and him talk about if I get the chance to speak with him! 😁
REN is a gift to all of us ❤ he has more heart more talent and more determination and dedication than any human I know 😊🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🤗 REN is fighting for you!!! He’s fighting for all of us ❤❤❤❤❤ Thank you for doing what you do Please keep putting ren out there Go watch all of his chapters 1-8 It will touch your heart and soul We are here ( us renegades) for you ❤
Unfortunately, Ren was misdiagnosed for many years and was given a lot of drugs that did more harm to him causing permanent damage to his body and brain because no one could figure out what was wrong with him. Hence, why at one point Ren had “Lost All Faith.” I am so sorry you are struggling with so many illnesses. Be Thankful your doctors were able to give you a proper diagnosis and the correct medication giving you a little relief and Hope. You are so positive Thank you!
I’m so glad you got treated. As a woman, I was just told it was a period-related thing. Turns out my thyroid wasn’t working at all. It took so much effort to get any treatment at all.
9:15 - I hope your twin comes and finds you, too. I've certainly see him show up in comments on some reactions in the past. I think he'd appreciate your story.
Great reaction. Ren has Lyme, which is relatively uncommon in the UK, which went misdiagnosed (mostly as psychiatric) for at least 7 years. A long medical tragedy, which developed into MCAS and a ton of organ damage, including brain.😊
Just been directed here when a member from my RENactions! FB group shared it as a recommended watch - you've got an instant sub from me. I see you've already now dipped your toe into the very deep & winding Ren Rabbithole so look forward to sharing some of your other Ren reactions there but Reactors are also more than welcome to join us there and shamelessly self-promote their Ren related content
In regards to Ren's chapters and his story, Chapter 6 covers the peak of his disease and chapter 7 the lengths he went to so he could heal. If you don't have the time to watch them all, I'd suggest those 2. It's inspiring.
This is only the second video I’ve watched of yours, and firstly I’m surprised you haven’t reacted to Ren before, and secondly I’m shocked that I’ve only just discovered your channel. I already thought you were super intelligent and a walking encyclopaedia, like Ren, but to find out that you have a lot of serious health problems, like him, makes me realise that you are THE reactor for Ren’s music. You have so much in common. (Cheshire, UK 🇬🇧)
Thank you so much. Yea my health kicked my butt for a long time until I was able to get it under control. It still sucks but yea I'm surprised it took me this long to react to him. He's a breath of fresh air that's for sure
I had a headache for 2 years and no one believed me. More time in the ER than I can count. Then one day it just stopped. Pain migrated to my back, but was more tolerable.
I am so sorry for your battles that you face. Like you I have Multiple Sclerosis, I fo not have any of you other diseases, instead I have Auto Immune thrombocytopenia, a prolapsed SVC, and an infindibular mass on my brain by the hypothalamus and pituitary stalk. I have been unable yo work since 30,though I have been fighting these since I was 14. Life gives each of us mountains to climb. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and your life's struggles
Sorry to hear of YOUR troubles. Prayers for you. You outwardly show some great attitudes. I hope those attitudes are deep in your core. Thanks for the Ren review. Hope you continue to enjoy him. Tears, laughter, and bars await. 🙏
Prayers and amen to you for all the things you're going through. You're so right, you gotta keep living even while going through everything. Ren is a master of the one take video. Go down his rabbit hole. He's very diverse, writes, produces the beats, and narrates how he wants his videos shot. He hits on multiple topics, can rap, sing, and cause emotion with his words. He was with Sony as a teenager and once he was diagnosed with Lyme disease they dropped him. Ren loves his audience and reactors. Great reaction to this song. Thank you for the insight into what you're going through.
Keep fighting brother , when you get knocked down flip the bird then get up, your gonna need to bring more to keep me from getting up. I have peripheral vascular disease, and have had gangrene in my toes, thought i may loose my legs, i still have my legs, bring it, im sure i will loose at some time but not yet, not yet.
Nice to meet another MSer who is fighting tooth and nail and I’m telling you this dude saved me and thousands of others! Glad to meet the newest RENgafe
I have fibromyalgia to and ren has helped me get through some really low dark time, and still is, he was misdiagnosed for 8 years. It turned out he had lyme disease he really thaught he was dying
I can relate with you about the cluster headaches. Lately I've been doing much better, since I retired a few years ago, and also on blood pressure medication. But yeah, cluster pain is a killer.
Thank you for sharing your story. Psa. Rens music is for everyone, for those who struggle to understand and are not aware of whats happening, the pain levels, where, when,why...only you know. Ren tells us through his music...HOPE🙏🤙☝️😌
Renegade here with a new sub for your Ren journey. His is a deep, vast rabbit hole with many genres, feels and vibes. Enjoy the ride! 💜💜. Note: you should listen to Ren's Chapters 1-8 in which he tells the story of his illness. It's on his channel RenMakesStuff.
Your story is one that Ren and many Renegades are familiar with! Sending you continuous strength and courage to deal with all your issues! Love how you are sharing your health issues! You are giving so many people hope, just like Ren's Troubles song! Ren's music is uniting so many people! Loved your story, your reaction, liked and subscribed 🎉😊
Thank you so much. I just deal with it one day at a time and keep it pushing along. I try not to let it get me too down. But I have my good and bad day. However like Ren and many others. We have to support the people who need the extra motivation❤️
I am so sorry that you are going through so much. Sending hugs and love to you. Ren has been a comfort to so many of us. Continue the Ren journey. We're here for it. Subbed.
Great reaction, sorry to hear about your medical condition. Check out Chalk Outlines by Ren, this is another great track detailing his troubles with medication.
RENegade here. I found your channel through your Hi Ren video. Y’all definitely have a lot in common. I am praying to the universe and all of the gods to help you in your struggles. This rabbit hole is deep so I have subscribed to watch all of your reactions. Blessings to you.
I'd watched your reactions to Hi Ren and Sick Boi and then found this reaction - I listed out a bunch of tracks to consider, but having heard your experience of pain.... man, you gotta go for Seven Sins (there's a cool lyric vid he released with it). It might be the most profound and darkest exploration of pain I've ever heard and there's no two ways about it, it would resonate super hard for you given your experiences.
I'm sorry you have to go through all your illness and pain. I especially relate to you with the fibromyalgia, headaches (I have migraines) and the people who don't understand and think I'm a hypoconder. Subscribed to your channel and here to see you react to more Ren... I wish you strength and better health..🍀
