The link below will take you to our latest SONG. It's a NATSU RAP called "Roof On Fire". Thank you so much for watching!
ruclips.net/video/f0AnCkIcjuk/видео.html
Sorry that was my pocket trying to say something
You can learn guitar, it's never too late. I took it up at 30 when there was no internet to find help, I took no lessons just got a couple of floppy books, best decision I made in my life. The hardest part is getting your fingertips hard, takes about two weeks of sore fingers.
Awesome track. The production is amazing. I really like your flow. Looking forward to more. sub
"The Hunger" is a good example of his rap ability. But he is so musically talented in almost every way, it's mind blowing.
The hunger is a banger
Also, Life is Funny..
i didn't hear you mention it, so I will.....This was done entirely LIVE....No pre-recorded track and lip-syncing here. Ren is in an entirely different league than most. I see people recommending "Hunger" and "Bittersweet Symphony", and they're good. But to me, Ren's Live stuff is where he really shines. Ren was also in a band, "The Big Push" for you to check out,.....he does a hell of a cover of Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff". They also do a cover of Bongo Bong that's really awesome.
Daaaaang I didn’t know it was live! That makes this even MORE impressive
*The Big Push
They did covers and medleys.
The Hunger is where he shows his real rap chops and I think should be next, before the deep dive into the older live gigs.
@@strawhatboys
Yeah if you look into more of his videos, especially the one shot live takes, pay attention to how he uses the natural acoustics of his surroundings. Dude is amazing.
Great example, the Tale of Jenny, Screech, and Violet trilogy. I HIGHLY recommend it. All three at once, trust me we won't mind the length.
Yeah. This was a one take. Pretty much all his vids are...
I’m so glad I went through the comments to see this!! I’ve only been listening to Ren for a week and know very little. No words exist to describe how his music makes me feel. I have 3 incurable autoimmune diseases that can affect my mental health. I am so glad I gave Ren a listen. Cliff Beats page does a great job of reacting to him (and other artists) and he always wants to know more and more about the artists so if you haven’t checked his page out too, I’m sure he’d appreciate it. NOT trying to lead people away from this channel, I subscribed in the first few seconds of the first video but if you are like me, I watch a couple reactions per song because sometimes others have different ideas regarding bars or may not realize some of the entendres
Sick Boi, Hunger - Bars
Chalk Outlines- Vocal ability, lyrical depth
The Tale of Jenny and Screech (Full Trilogy) - Storytelling, guitar skills, bars, singing, emotion. It has everything.
Dude IS a genius
You wanna see Ren rap?
LOSING IT
THE HUNGER
He is amazing
Wanna see him sing?
CHALK OUTLINES
DIAZEPAM
HOW TO BE ME
Ren is phenomenal, there are so many layers in the art that this man of concentrated talents creates. Rens rabbit hole is deep and definitely worth diving into.
Enjoy!
Thanks
@@wikihamilton2327 welcome!
Nope. Ren's rap is irrelevant. He uses a number of brushes, a number of paints, to colour the canvas - rap is simply one of them. The over highlighting of rap is utterly ludicrous.
@@LaughingStock_ what do you mean by over highlighting?
He didn't stay in a monotonous monotone drone?
Same here my guy, have anxiety since my adulthood. And his message of it not being a fight, but rather an eternal dance really reasonated with me also. Keep dancing my friend. ❤
We got this, my guy….. thank you watching btw
want to check out his rap skills "The Hunger" or FISHER retake "Losing it" he just one of a kind. Big Push for rock side and the tale of "Jenny and Screech" {in that order with violet last} for more story telling, and his collaborations are close to radio music. amazing artist
“Hunger” or “Genesis” are a few of his where he rap raps
Chalk outlines will show ya his singing and lyrical ability. It’s a mental health song I think you will appreciate. He does it live with chinchilla. Beautiful
Really great insight. Mental health is such an important issue ☮️
So important! I’m always glad to hear artists address mental health
His “bitter sweet symphony” remix is right up your alley. Pure bars.
👀👀👀…… I’ll be checking that out for sure!
@@strawhatboys Hunger is definitely the best example of his flow change-up capabilities and speed rap, Genesis has a wicked beat and flows/lyrics, and Power is a straight vibe.
@@strawhatboys here are the songs let me list it for you might also consider him as the Goat of rap music
1.Life is Funny
2.Love music pt2 and pt3
3.hunger
4.Fisher loosing it
5.Hold on
Please do react!🙏🙏🙏
@strawhatboys You autta react to his Fatboy Slim one shot retake Right Here, Right Now!!! He nails it!!!
Also... Ocean, Humble, Crucify your Culture, and Life is Funny!
They'll definitely surprise you! His Rap skills are unreal!!!
The dark side kills it. Just like it will in your head. At the end of day, and the song, the bright side is better. This whole song is an incredible metaphor both musically and lyrically. Truly a masterpiece!
The genius of Ren's lyrics, is that whether you've suffered with mental health 🤚🙋♀️ or not, we ALL have an inner dialogue whether we admit it or not; not all as extreme, but the extremes are covered so beautifully in this song that I feel it has literally gathered together strangers across the world to Stand like Ren - "on their own two feet" - & fight the battle through Rest (which is actually a Biblical principle). And I am so grateful & impressed that whether Ren intended to do that or just share his struggle with the world as conquering a hurdle to his peace; that there is Heart enough out there for this "space" to be created, that is literally proving to transcend time & space thanks to the internet - at least the internet is good for Something! Claiming the struggle as our own is when we consciously work at Trying Hard to get ourselves out of the hole and end up only finding more reason to stay down there. And just like ceasing to struggle in the ocean... when we learn to Rest in life, we allow ourselves to rise to the surface, take some fresh air into our lungs & have more likelihood of rescue. And right now, this piece of art has offered a global platform for healing & unity which is what the world's been crying out for, for eons. Not to mention that his style seems to be touching on all genres, even taking us back in time to minstrel days - your next port of call should definitely be, The Tale of Jenny & Screech (Full) - it will blow your mind! much love & prosperity on your personal journey...
I have 15 years of sobriety and I have been sharing his music with all my AA friends & it hits home with us alkies too
Not only did it makes sense , it’s on all levels. This song, in your mind , in other people, the dark side is always louder and more tempting
Great reaction. To explore Ren in rap mode, I'd recommend the Hunger or Losing It (retake).
I was just going to comment the exact same
Adding both to the list. Thank you
@@strawhatboys Also Sick boi, Power, What you Want
Ooooo you gonna love Ren ❤️ 😍 and there's 10yrs+ of omg amazing. Oh and there is no box or lane that could ever contain this mans talent lol!!
Much love and mad respect ❤️❤️
Good reaction but can I give you a tip? Try using the space bar and left and right arrows for pause and play and back and forwards 5 seconds, respectively. It's less annoying than the mouse.
Ren is such a talent, this was done live and even more amazing it was done in one take, which for me is True art as it comes from the soul. You'll get a lot of requests for the sick boi and the tale of Jenny & Screech. But the song 'do you believe' is stunning and should also get the exposure it deserves! for me it's some of his finest work.
I found his voice to be soothing as well and the song overall is very profound. Oh and the most mind blowing part of you didn't already know is he played this song live recording the video which he is taking his mic off in the last few seconds of the video.
He as the dark part is more lyrical and "cool" because bad things disguise themselves to lure.. in my mind anyway 🤷🏻♀️
The Hunger show's Ren's levels when it comes to Rapping trust it's 🔥Glad your reacting to him💯🇬🇧
#HOG UK 🇬🇧 appreciating you for supporting and sharing independent Artists.
If you're looking for more Ren, I'd definitely suggest Money Game Part 1 and 2, especially 2.
1:48 great spotted, it`s not a wheelchair, it`s a chair with wheels, not for a person to move himself around in, but a chair for moving patience around like furniture.
Your perception of the variety of artistic qualities of this piece on a first run through was amazing. So much to absorb. I've watched dozens of reactions and you picked up on so many things others missed, like the diffence in lyrical style and complexity between voices. Great reaction!
I just don't believe this was your first listen, fake
@@Superhero2842 did he say that?
@@freddyhochauf9489 It's written all over the thumbnail, 'first time ever hearing Ren'... so yeah.
@@Superhero2842 Is it *really* that unbelievable to you that someone who is used to analysing musical and lyrical material could be both perceptive and coherent on their first viewing/listening of new material?
Some people just are as naturally articulate as they appear to be. Them's the breaks.
@@andrewcarpenter3148 it is not that unbelievable, I've watched a lot ( and I mean a lot!) of reaction videos and you can tell when someone is genuinely hearing something for the first time or if they have already watched either the video or another person's reaction to it...
Great reaction! Some of Ren's great rap songs include Sick Boi, The Hunger, and Power. The Tale of Jenny and Screetch is rap in story telling and Chalk Outlines is just a beautiful song
I love how the light side starts out tentatively afraid of the dark. Then more insistent Then baited by the dark side and arguing defensively and unsure of himself And finally self assured.
I find it so interesting that the initial melody feels cheesy then when it’s repeated at the end it feels so strong and empowering. I love this artistic expression.
Legit my favorite react video. I watch "HI REN" often, and at times I feel like reaction videos validate my emotions, so I prefer them. That being said, a large percentage of these react videos seem to be people who have watched it already and then went on to create illegitimate react videos. It's abundantly obvious that nearly all react videos are not genuine, which is frustrating. Having gone over all of this, I don't care if you legitimately reacted to this video, or you are acting, because I believe you and that makes it real to me. Keep doing you, because you're authentic and interesting.
Thanks man, this means a lot. If I have already heard the song I’m reacting to, I will say it in the intro. I’ve done this on my old Eminem reactions. I appreciate the support and kind words 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
@@strawhatboys well, I just found you and I'll for sure sub and turn on notifications. Thank you for your effort. I know it's a struggle, but stuck with it. We see you and you are necessary.
Love, love, love your reaction. You are my newest favorite reactor!!! You caught so much of the stuff Knox Hill caught (he’s so good), and additional unique things. I’ve seen so many reactions of Hi Ren and your’s is top notch! Subscribed!!! (I can’t believe you are only now crossing my page!)
....you can still learn how, myGuy... Good reaction. Hope to see ya further down Ren's rabbit hole.

I love watching people react to this video because a reaction video of is how I found this totally independent artist. Nominated this song in four categories in Prague music awards. This sharing is how he's being discovered. Thanks for finding and sharing this artist who does have an amazing story. This is such a relatable song where ever you are in life.
I also have anxiety and panic disorder. It is physically debilitating and so overwhelming at times. I hope you have some good coping tools and you are able to enjoy the times when your brain gives you a break friend. Great reaction. I love REN’s art. Going to check out your original stuff now ❤
AS RUclips TIGHTENS THE ROPES ON REACTORS IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE SHOW HOW MUCH WE LOVE THESE REACTORS AND WHAT THEY DO. COMMENT. LIKE AND SUB TO ALL YOUR FAVORITE REACTORS.
Great reaction.
I love to see these reactions. Depending on where you sit personally, you see the need for either the _check yourself_ voice or the _I’m the best_ voice. He did such an amazing job of capturing the human condition that everyone can find something to relate to. That is some genius art.
Ren = True art. Outstanding 🔥👌💚
You're so right, his dark side is more articulate, which demonstrates his experience.
So glad you did this. I JUST found this man and I'm obsessed! Feels like a much less comedic Bo Burnham, which I say with upmost respect cause Bo is a god damn genius. Can't wait to see more stuff from Ren.
Anxiety disorder is such an awful disease, been there too. Still up and down, but you and others make me feel connected with people.
Loved your reaction, subbed and liked. Checking out your stuff now.
I think you would really enjoy his trilogy also done live like most of his videos and it really shows his musical ability as well as his acting talent. The trilogy can be found on his site here on RUclips either as three individual items or as one piece if you search for the full version of the tale of Jenny and Screech.
Just an FYI Ren is currently getting treatment in Canada for his medical issues and has a go fund me account for anyone that can spare some cash but even just spreading his music really helps.
Ren is a prodigy! This is a Masterpiece. Total obsessed with Ren when I thankfully found him 2 weeks. He is one of the best artists out there! Beautiful! Love you Ren!
He make his message clear when there is to be hope to be had.
If you want to hear him rap, I suggest The Hunger or Sick Boi. If you want to hear him sing, check out Chalk Outlines. If you want to hear his musical story telling, check out his Jenny and Screech trilogy: Jenny's Tale, The Tale of Jenny and Screech, Violet's Tale (in that order). Dude is just a phenomenal talent all around. I haven't seen a video of his that didn't blow my mind at least a little bit. (Content Warning: Too much Ren may have the unintended consequence of making other musicians feel inadequate. Watch at your own risk.)
THANKS FOR BEING U ! WE ALL HAVE A PART OF "REN, SO...
I love that you said you feel like you are the best rapper on the planet, that the type of self confidence I LOVE TO SEE! Get some!!!
Inside the light there is no confusion. Clear
Beautiful reaction- thank you for being vulnerable and sharing. ❤
Really enjoyed your discussion of this mate.
Really enjoyed your reaction, new subscriber....loved your open commentary!
Hi Ren is a pure musical art and I love watching reaction videos of it to see the reaction it gets. Can only be positive and strengthening to the people who see it. Nice how you were open about your own personal battles and stay strong
Check out sick boi it continues with hi Ren
He's definitely something special. You should check out Chalk Outlines feat Chinchilla next. It gives a bigger look into his singing.
Check out “The Hunger” if you want to see him flex
I also vote for The Hunger
More ren please ❤❤❤❤
Absolutely!
Great breakdown man. I liked how you connected his rhythmic ability to the dark side, and the real side to the light. That’s essentially the point I think… so, subbed! Great job friend.
Children of the moon is dark, and light. Really showcases the imagination
Great reaction! Thanks for doing this!
Great reaction. Keepin it real bro
"He can play guitar... I don't know if can rap or if he is a singer or not..."
Me: Yes!
This is live with 3 cameras. They did several takes to get the take. So the edited 3 three cameras film- from the take.
Sick Boi by Ren is 🔥
For his storytelling try his triology
Jenny and Screeches tale (full) masterpiece
For beauty of his voice try
Chalk out lines and How to be me.
Brilliant review...... thanks for checking out Ren....
Keep pushing and stay up
Love you bro. Great reaction. Stay real man
Thanks for reacting to Ren he is so awesome
Ty so much for your reaction to ren....for your open and honest dialogue. I relate. Please listen to rens live song chalk outlines....a whole other side of him that's haunting and beautiful. 👍❤🔥
I enjoy seeing youtubers getting their minds blown with musical art.
I have watched and listened to a couple hundred HI REN reactions and look for new youtubers, to me,and you got a new subscriber in me.
Keep doing what ya doin.
KEEP MOVING FORWARD.
🤜🤛
SHARING IS CARING
1 more subscriber for your channel to 100k😁
Ren's music is the word that is like the song needed for peace in BILL AND TEDS movie,from WYLD STALLIONS.
Great Reaction. More Ren defiantly.
watch 'jenny's tale..a trilogy also he has a band 'the big push'
Ren also films his videos in a single take.
I think the phrase you are looking for when you say “dumbing down” is “stripping back”. Like, intentional simplification to create emphasis. If you said “stripped back lyricism/complication” that might be what you were looking for
Honestly…… that’s exactly what I was looking for lol, thank you
@@strawhatboys lol, knowing the word someone is looking for is one of my superpowers. Very limited use but it comes in handy
as Em once said “let me simplify the rhyme just to amplify the noise.” the important and uplifting parts are slower and more clear, because they are what we need to hear most 💜
Great reaction
Just a side note about learning guitar...Dirty little secret, it's easy to learn to play guitar to be able to sing along with accompaniment, not difficult to learn to play the guitar competently, somewhat harder to play as well as Ren, and impossible to master. Pick a level, practice for a bit every day, and put it down when it ain't fun. Good luck either way...
Oh and a really well done reaction to a beautiful performance that is bringing us all a little closer.
The Hunger has Ren in beastmode
In case you didn't realize, this was done Live!
Interesting you a 1990 child like me 😁 goatie tash like me talk like me.... Mite just be the next best me but not quit me 😂 seriously though. This song is magic. Legit magic. Your reafirmation of what people are saying about him is literally why i keep looking at how people react to him. He got the issues and problems we all want to know that others connect with and were not alone in that vein. He seems humbled from what the public eye gets of him and is a honnest open book. This lad could easily dominate if people endorsed him that little bit more and choose to openly accept the prescence of mental health that little bit more 😊
I would add money game to the recommendations. Get ready for mad rap bro. He is a genius.
He has Lime disease. They caught it to late so he deals with the disease that causes psychosis along with other things. There’s no cure as far as know
Watch the lights flicker and see when they do..
Chalk outlines with Chinchilla is brilliant, she is a perfect singer for Ren.
Ren is great. I highly recommend money game 1 and 2
Check out Genesis, Power in fact just go down the Ren rabbit hole you won't be disappointed much love ❤️🐰🕳️
the HUNGER shows he can rap , rap
The guy can rap rap......and is insane with the word play.....damn near Em tier
Ren is a gift the likes of which comparing him to em would do them both an injustice
Who is He, this 33 year old, who has come seemingly out of nowhere and given us this most powerful message? Don't you know?
The dark side's always more smooth that's why people get pulled into it
Love Ren
Holy shit!! I remember you. I used to watch all you're reactions. Then you disappeared from my feed. Glad to see you see you're still doing it. And glad to see your reacting to this song especially
Nice¡! " Genesis" rap, a must do in the list.
If you’d like to hear Ren rap rap, check out “The Hunger”.
Adding to the list right now! Thank you for watching
He’s a modern day Bard
Radio
Play me, so 🎶
I didn’t know about this channel! I wandered what happened to you!
You autta react to his Fatboy Slim one shot retake Right Here, Right Now!!!
Also... Ocean, Humble, Crucify your Culture, and Life is Funny!
They'll definitely surprise you! His Rap skills are unreal!!!
