I do have a special request. Are you fond of the "grunge" era? If so, I please ask you to check out the song, "Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns" by Mother Love Bone, from the movie, Singles, soundtrack. The lead singer of Mother Love Bone was Andrew Wood, who overdosed on heroin in the early 90s. The band members of Mother Love Bone became the grunge band, Pearl Jam, by adding Eddie Veddar as lead singer. Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns is my favorite song, period. Nobody I've found so far have reacted to Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns by Mother Love Bone that I can find. I would LOVE for you to check it out!! If you lead me to where I can donate, I will be happy to!! Much Love!! ❤
I knew it was this "Kelly". I thought I heard them say "more kellbell". I always think of Saturday night live with Will Ferrell...more cow bell. Is that the reason for the name? Because that is clever.
I was genuinely there. Lived in Brighton for years and used to watch these guys play. Check out Dub fx as well, I saw him busking in Brighton when he first started too!
@@jorice5528 when REN first started gaining followers I was shocked. Not because he wasn’t talented but because he busked almost every weekend and I felt like I knew him although we only chatted a couple of times over the years. Romain the guitarist still busks regularly. My last visit (I moved to Scotland) I watched him for an hour.
Ren is front & center here. He has the charisma of a Star & leader of the band. The people are there to see him. Ren has to have Swag! One of my favorite live performances from The Big Push/Ren. Great reaction!
Don't shortchange that band. They deserve all the respect in the world. Ren would likely be the first to say he's not the leader of the band and it wouldn't be him being humble by saying that.
I didn't see the first post, but I think people recommend this so much over the other less because it's a preferred performance, but rather because this medley is unique and an overall incredible vibe. Both performances are great, but this mix-up works so well. (Actually, all the performances from the Ren-in-red-suspenders day are stellar and worth a watch.) In the way most rappers wouldn't use an EDM track for a song (but Ren does in his "Losing It" Fisher retake), most musicians wouldn't think of mashing up Bob Marley, Damian Marley and Dead Prez into a single cohesive song. It's 🔥. So glad you enjoyed. Great reaction!
Appreciate your comments regarding Ren. I haven't forgiven the the child on the left for dissing Gorran last time out though. You have a shot at redemption if you check out "Swan Song" by these these guys... and eat your words. ;)
You guys do know that people don't HAVE to like or accept things they don't want to... right? Like, no matter how much you try and force it, if people don't like something they have every right to have that preference or opinion.
Whenever you get ready to watch a new video, you will never know what to expect, and if you think you do, you will probably be surprised. Ren is the most diverse artist I have ever seen. Appreciate your reaction!
@@portiadavenport9866 I seem to remember that our US napkin has a very different meaning in the UK. 😂And an American cookie is a British biscuit? Not sure if I got that right.
@@nannyogtha I looked it up and won't say any more than that. 😂 My sister and I backpacked through the UK back in the '90's--and I think we wore those "unmentionable" packs at the time...
@@ClearTheRubble7 aye napkin is what you get in a restaurant (or serviette) we now have cookies over here but yup biscuits are the way!! with a cuppa tea obviously :)
Ren is the most talented there is!. Ren is brilliant! He is amazing at everything he does! Acting his work is a masterpiece! love his voice and intelligent a genius he is. Ren is the best rapper and i never liked rap.
Ren is an absolute god of music! He is a national treasure! Represents the best of my country. Also, gutted the Big Push never made it big, but so long as we have their music, its all good.
Glenn is the drummer. All are independent. There's a lot of reggae influences here in the UK particularly seen in Ska & Two Tone due to the large West Indian & Caribbean folk who came over in the 60s
Genesis Acoustic is amazing and the VIDEO version is also awesome- He has a lot of music with the big push - do bongo- i like that Ren gives both. Ugh i needed this! There is an actual reactor that hates Ren's music I needed to remove his Toxicity. Thank you!
Your and your guest’s analysis and review of the big push in this piece is so on point and funny at the same time . Your channel was mentioned by the members on REN’s Patreon .
This was so fun! I love the energy between u both it’s what made me just subscribe! Please keep the Ren reactions coming! I’ll send a link for ones that have many versions but if you haven’t yet could you check out these vids: Illest of Our Time Genesis Seven Sins Wicked Ways
This version is more polished and rehearsed, the audio is almost studio quality! It was recorded on go pro cameras and the drums recorded using an iPhone. Ren then compiled and cleaned up everything like a Jedi 👌😎
You said it well with him having so much variety. I use that phrase too when describing Ren. He's gotta have at LEAST one song you are gonna love because he covers a big area
I like both versions of this also. Yhe other one,i think. Is later in the day, lower energy. Probably because everyone was more tired. Thisbobe is very high energy a Ren spent hours meticulously mixing these videos. Every petformance is diffetent...no bad ones!❤ Also Romaine Ren and Girran luved tigether during the pandemic. There arw some videis for Live Nation of them all sitting on Gorrans bed performing.
that crazy vocal babble he does is called "scat" and it was a huge part of 60's and 70's jazz/R&B and goes back to the Sammy Davis Jr. "Hep Cat" club days of the 50's.
Your comment about making you open o other types of music is so spot on. Finding REN made me excited to listen to all kinds of new genres of music. That may even be why I like him so much. Since finding him, I’ve really broadened my musical horizons. ♥️♥️🔥🔥
I think in the last video people weren't saying the other was crap, just that this one had other tunes mixed into the whole set, making it a different experience. Anyhow, thx for checking it out, both of you. 👍🏻
Great reaction! I agree that Ren is great no matter what. But, I do appreciate this performance more than the other. I just feel the energy is different.
First time on your channel, good reaction!. You might find this interesting, two guitars one base. You can always tell what they are by the tuning keys at the end of the neck, lead and rhythm always has 6 keys, base has 4 keys. Gotta have good base to do Reggae AND Ska. They went into a little ska riff between Zion and hip hop, speedy reggae. He is also singing "with a little bit of dub, we can make it through the night." If you aren't familiar with dub, Google it. When Ren sings about how Sheriff John brown hated him whenever he planted a seed, John Brown would say kill it before it grows, two meanings. Plants the Ganja seed yes but also back in the day there was a lot of revolution when Marley came out with the song. So Sheriff John Brown wanted to kill the revolution seeds before they had a chance to grow. That mumbly/goofy singing Ren does that is long time jazz style called scat singing. Check it out
This was a culmination of covers. I Shot the Sheriff - Bob Marley Road to Zion - Damian Marley Hip Hop - Dead Prez Ren payed an amazing tribute to these songs in this performance.
I love this one so much and it was great to see you guys smile as they transitioned into Dead Prez! ❤ Have you seen any baby Ren yet in his first band, Trick the Fox? I know you don't take recs in comments but just wanted you to be aware there's some fun early stuff out there.
Thank you 🙏❤ QualityShXt ❤ for your 🎸🎸🎸🥁 The Big Push - I Shot The Sheriff/Road To Zion/Hip Hop reaction! #thebigpush #ren #rengill #gorrankendall #romainaxisa #glennchambers #ishotthesherriff #roadtozion #hiphop #bobmarley #damianmarley #deadprez #brighton #shipstreet #busking There are no wrong versions, it is just that this one with the Dead Prez' Hip Hop is the reactivers favorite version. All the other ones are just great, too.
Perhaps, now you understand why some people were disappointed when you saw the other version before this one, since this is a better intro to the band? I was quietly laughing to myself when you had your little "spiel" about how the performances were similar, you had only just started this song and had no idea what lay in store for you. It was like a "...Ah, bless him, little does he know what is about to happen..." moment. This was 4 songs rolled into one. It is worth going and listening to the originals in your own time. Bob Marley to start, followed by Damien Marley Road to Zion, then With a Little Bit of Luck DJ Luck and MC Neat, and of course, Hip Hop, then ending back at the start with I Shot the Sheriff.
If you haven't done it yet definitely do the live version of chalk outlines with chinchilla. The only one that is music video vs live is money game part 2. There are some (genesis, animal farm, murder) that have both sons both are great!
This is the BEST version! But there is NO bad version of Ren!! The Big Push are ALL uber-talented! War Pigs by them is my second fav, IF I have to choose!! Ren's LIVE performances with Chinchilla (Chalk Outlines and How To Be Me) will blow your minds!! And I'm 59 and waiting for Down On the Beat (feat. Viktus) to be played by my local DJ so I can get out on the dance floor and shake shake shake, shake shake shake, shake my bootie!! 😊 Like Rap? Illest Of Our Time, Animal Flow and The Hunger... You're welcome! 😀
Love your reaction lads. Only seen 2 hate reactors / one was like a jock who wanted rap to be about ‘latina hos’ - he was properly n s close minded world. The other as a wannabe gangster ‘rapper’ from LA, whose vibe was basically - if you’re not Compton you can’t rap, while ignoring Kool Herc was NY, with Jamaican roots. As you say - open mind 👍🏼
I am older 56 and I do have an open mind lol sometimes too open But I actually do have a hard time getting some of my folks to really give it a try I’ve tried introducing different things first but sometimes a closed mind will just stay closed I hate it too lol I want everyone to love ren the way we do ❤
I honestly think the other performance of this was maybe older and that this one was him having matured some musically I didn’t think it was bad I think it shows his growth and ren is not about hiding any part of himself I think it shows how hard he works to get better and better Just my two cents ❤ I like both because of that ✌🏼✨
Renegades complain too much. Awesome you living both 😂😂😂. I like this version better but going back now to see the other version through your eyes. Also subbed. Thanks for your perspective
Subcribed, love the energy Here are some reactions for you to do: Ren: Genesis Power Hunger Dominos Love music 1-2-3-4 Lose yourself Murderer Animal flow How to be me ft Chinchilla Blind eyed ft Sam Thompkins (parking lot version or music crown version) Big push: Praise you Bongo bong These are all fire songs
3rd tune … with a little bit of luck is a UK garage anthem that is deeply intrenched in uk street culture from back in the day! Often missed ! Ren is just about the music and culture when it comes to his covers!! His covers tell us a lot about Ren!
Turn the video vol up another 20% lads I am gettin old and like some volume.. and the pause rate is off the charts and the golden rule is never pause in the middle of a guitar solo.. dudes...?
Respectful Performance By " The Big Push " . Highly Focused // Attentive // Respectful // // R E A C T I O N From You T W O Young Gentlemen .
