I love, Knox, that you have produced one-takes yourself and a recent lyric video. I presume Ren has had influence in the genre over time, at least in the reaction community. I love Ren's retake even more now that I have heard your breakdown. There are so many references and twists that there is no way I could catch any of that. Ren is amazing as ususal. You are the greatest at the breakdown and a great rapper too. Keep up the great work, Knox.

Gotta confess I come here for Ren. Why here? Because you break it down so well and impart knowledge that a 61 year old punk can never get from anywhere else. Well played.

@Mezzystar1 4 месяца назад

Punk and Hip Hop & Rap have a lot in common, I’d say. Also, Ren’s DIY ethic (albeit done to perfection) is a bit of a punk move in itself. Punk Ren! I wonder if he’d do a retake of a Gang of Four banger or something by The Ex if we ask nicely!

As someone living in Ontario, Canada I'm watching this video not recognizing Alberta, but kept getting the distinct feeling of a Canadian city. Of course not knowing Ren moved there for treatment. It was just niggling at me as to what European or American city is giving off this Canadian vibe! Then I saw the Trico Living Well poster and perked up...Google sleuth mode, activate! Found the city, and why he's there. At least I know I wasn't flippin'. Adding a little Canadian pride to this great video and great reaction.

@Skybolt211 4 месяца назад

Hey Knox, I agree, you got a shout-out in this video.. The "fission" lines end in "split an atom in a fraction, a reaction supersize--- me." So the "reaction supersize" is the atom bomb detonating, but then he adds "me" to the end of that as a shout-out to the reactions that have blown him up. Okay, back that up and which reactor breaks these down to the atomic level???? Also, one thing that I've not heard ANY reactor comment on... they get the "I'm pimping my pain"... what do pimps do? Control.. So he controls his pain and pimps it out to make music that others use... he makes money with it, etc. But then he says "Prostitute of all that's insane." That's actually a flip... prostitutes are vulnerable and get used. So he's not insane, he's being USED by all that's insane. In other words, by being vulnerable and putting himself out there, his experiences and music have been important for many with mental health issues, etc. and that has really gotten piled on him. So I think that's really a statement on how people have responded so much to his songs of pain, and then project their own struggles and interpretations onto him, to the point of almost exploiting him.
