I've said this for ever if you wanna hear the track go listen to the track. Don't come on a reactors page and complain about them doing what they do... React. Fire track , fire reaction as always.
Ren doesn't pigeonhole himself into one style. It's okay for people to find some they don't like. But pound for pound, genre for genre Ren is a beast at what he does. Even if everything is not for everybody. I respect his risk taking.
Funny world eh - Ren makes 2 songs about suicide and almost gets cancelled , makes another song 2 weeks later called Murderer and its already #2 on Amazon and will rise in the charts . REn actually made the same comment as well.
As a 60 year old jewish stock broker who's recently listened to a lot of reactors, I have to say you really, really impressed me. Top 1%. Kudos. I'll keep watching.
You got it, it’s from the 90’s when rap was pure as F. I haven’t liked rap since I came across his music. The mix with reggae and old schools flows. Top notch.
Don't worry about the pausing man, if people want to listen to the whole song without interruption, they should go listen to the original, and come back. It's called reacting for a reason.😊 just do it your way. Yes Ren had some really dense rhyme schemes in there, which I liked. And the hook was catchy.
There is no one out there today doing what Ren does. I can understand why someone wouldn't be into it. He's different. But you must respect. The way he blends music with rap is unique. The fact that he starts with a empty hard drive and build his songs from the ground up, writing, producing, playing the instruments, and then singing/rapping is different. Who else is as diverse as having things like Hi Ren, The Tales Of Jenny And Screech and songs like Murderer and Genesis. He has other songs on his RU-vid page that are completely different from these examples. And The Big Push also has original songs. His dream is to be a director. He's written a script and is going to make a pilot and try to sell it to Netflix. I bet it will happen.
Brother you'll love reacting to Ren & The Big Push covering Marley but make damn sure you do the right one or else the chat will start screaming lol🤣. To be honest there is a specific video that is a amazing because the sound quality of where the camera man set up his mic's, makes all the difference in the world. The Big Push - "I Shot The Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop" Is fantastic. This mash-up of Bob Marley, Damian Marley & Dead Prez has a great vibe and gets the crowd going. 🤩
You have said what I've been saying for a long time. It's rap. It's theatre. Of course there is violence in the rap world, but I'd say the majority of the references are story-telling and posing. Extra. Braggadocious. Machismo. Exactly. Thanks for another great reaction.
Jay that was awesome! So glad you enjoyed that one. Ren definitely has a reggae soul in him. He loved Bob Marley and Raggae music 🎶 it always was big in the UK. Ren has a storyline going with these videos. The man that he put in the trunk is the same man tied up in the beginning of Animal Flow, with the pig torturing him. Ren released out of order, he never follows rules lol. More to come. Money Game 3 coming soon. Hope you get to Money Game 1 & 2 when you have time. Love ya ✌️💚💪
I’m not sure if you’ve done ‘Genesis’ yet? If not I think it’ll become your favourite Ren tune, maybe. Probably. I also agree, throughout the 90’s the art form got refined and peaked. Ren is on that vibe.
"There's a difference between reflection and glorification". Mic drop, new sub. Wise, wise shit bruh. Also I'm not sure who/which/what comments you were responding to from people who didn't like it and seemingly for some violence based reason, but I'd like to just add that compared to many US vids with similar themes - sometimes not even - please note: There is not a single gun in this video nor does anyone die. Implied, sure, in our vids, people shoot and kill others and don't even see it as unreasonable, let alone murder. Sending luv from the Chi. xo
I'm a 58 year old mother and grandmother....never ever thought I'd like rap....I'm hooked, ren is a performer we don't have to believe that Ren is going to go out and murder someone...its a performance and its brilliant. We will be watching Ren in movies mark my words.
'Simple cinematic ' Both Ren and cam guy Luke Flegg say it's the most complex this far. Luke says the number of times he banged into window from roof, fast, smooth backwards, sway cam at 'Rockie' , backwards down stairs, then the near impossible entry in and out of car. Ren surrounds himself with genius and 'lifts all boats'. Brilliant. The reggae is dead right, Ren mentions cudos to Barrington Levy song Murderer. Super good react.
That beat tho ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 Lmfao I may love this beat but who am I kidding Ren's barz and wordplay in this track had me laughing my a55 off!! I absolutely love this track! Lol it's cocky but fun!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Folks are forgetting this is not autobiographical - its part of a story - all will be revealed and link up . HI Ren and Sic Boi were strictly about his life his struggles and his views on the medical profession and big pharma based on his experience .
I love him even more. I see a lot of metaphors in this based on how it flows into some of his other songs. Animal Flow maybe? Power game. He has some darker material. And that works for me cause I’ve seen a darker side of life so the duality of his light and dark land. He enjoys some dark humor.
Fire reaction!!! You’re right, he’s different! Have you heard Bitter Sweet Symphony by Ren? It was that good, the actual singer from the Verve gifted Ren his guitar!! 🔥🎵🎼🎶🔥
You’re still one of my favorite reactors man, I love how you keep it, honest and genuine. By the way, you’re right, I don’t know how anyone could hate this, this is fire that beat is so catchy.
There's context to this. It's a prequel to Animal Flow, the guy tied up at the start of Animal Flow is the guy he put in the boot/trunk at the end of this. It's storytelling. Not flexing.
Pause Factory patreons appreciate your pauses! Unlike a lot of reactors who pause to let us hear their voices... you actually have lyrical Substance in your words!!! That's why you're my favorite! (Haters say one word about Richard Riding... bite me biotch!)
this is an epic flex song, and for you americans,,,,, ;'your daughter's home, nobody's home alone, condone the bone, eat it like a Toblerone' , Toblerone is a big chocletbar containing big pieces of triangular chocolates,,, he's saying open you mouth wide so you can ,,, ' condone the bone
I can’t wait to see what he puts out as pure rock music by the end of the year. He’s currently doing just rap right now but has said his next set of track will be purely rock focused. For an artist to be as multidisciplinary takes true talent. Can’t fucking wait.
Love your comments, bro! I think Ren likes to unsettle and shock listeners at times which I appreciate….all the great artists did it in their time, Jimmy Hendrix, Elvis, The Beatles,Prince, etc. Ren is just doing his thing and smirking. Good reaction!
This isnt emotional like Chalk Outlines. This is arrogant like Illest Of Our Time. Im here for it! If you dont bob to this song, you better check your pulse! BTW I love your analysis. Youre my new favorite Jay. - Im hateful, too. - Stacie from Boston
OK now you have to do the acoustic live version he put out yesterday. It's literally fire haha. He filmed it in LA last week and man it's soooo damn good. The music was gdamn amazing, the live version is a million times better.
That wasn't a very H8TFUlL reaction, JAY! 😜 All jokes aside thanks for a great genuine reaction... Ren is 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Also... is that a Coming to America T-shirt? That's comedy gold! 🤣💕
When he said “if there are bars I’m gonna pause” I was like: your gonna need a new keyboard because your about to wear out the space bar pausing this one.
I love how he moves to the sound of the music in each song because it adds to his natural ability to perform. He’s an all singing, dancing, rapping, acting and instrumental performer, so it’s like watching a mini play each time with a twist of comedy too and that’s what works
I've been watching reactions to Ren all week. You're my favorite. I love that you understand his lyrics and hear the 90s influence. I like you, too. Please, don't stop responding to Ren.
I’m new to REN. I’m late to this train and I listened to “Hi Ren” first then fell deep down the rabbit hole… and Lord help me, but why does this music video turn me on. Heaven’s mercy, I’ve heard songs and music videos more violent than this, maybe it’s the accent, maybe it’s bc I can identify with all the mental issues. ADD, PTSD, Anxiety and Depression (damn sure not braggin about that crap). But this song, Animal Flow, Illest of our time, and even the money game and when he was crazy in the Jenny and Screech stories got me sweatin like a whore in church. Y’all need to pray for me. Even that rap diss response he didn’t bother to make a beat for King Dotta was hot and he made it nice in the end. I thought he was in his twenties and younger but he’s just over two months older than me. I repent Lord! I REPENT these lustful thoughts.
Love you being real. Track is 🔥. If you haven't seen The Big Push's medley "I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop," you have to scheck it out. I think you'd also enjoy Ren's songs ft. Eden Nash, "Ocean" and "Humble." They both have an island music influence. Awesome.
Like reactions - Barrington Levy stylee - more than Marley - you know Ren has back tracked a multitude of genres - but, IMRHO - his first love is Rap/hip hop.
This is Ren doing a character. From what I understand, this is the prequel to "Animal Flow". The guy kidnapped in this video is the one tied up in "Animal Flow".
Love how you want to catch every word ! From other reactions that I've read, we/his fans listen to his songs on repeat to catch it all. Great reaction!
I've have been enjoying your posts beyond what I can tell you. I'm waiting with a stale smile for you to respond to the Big Push. Love you...I've watched your responses over again. You are quick..witty and knowing what you hear..say. enjoy it . I want to hear more plz. Give it to me Fyi id love you in my car singing
I appreciate this and I want you to know if I can ever get to do this full time you'll never have to wait again it's comments like this that keep me from stopping this youtube thing. BLESS UP!!
The class of the track is undeniably brilliant but so was your reaction and contribution and that does count a lot. I always watch the original first and in the case of Hi Ren must have watched every reaction and you get a real feel of who's views matter and yours certainly so.
