It’s Brigita, yes, she’s an artist/designer, the talent behind Ren’s merch/album artwork.
She's lovely, I met her at SGP so chill and talented
I think what is so addictive about Ren for me is that he does whatever entertains his ADHD and my experience is that this really tickles my ADHD brain.
He's unpredictable. He releases a live acoustic that sounds completely different from the studio version, adds riffs in, plays with his voice and with the guitar and he does that precisely because it entertains his ADHD. It's fun and exciting for him. It's exactly that that makes it fun and exciting for me too.
Don’t need to have ADHD to be entertained by those playful changes. Tho’ I’m beginning to think I may have some of those symptoms myself 😂
Acoustic Ren is where he shines.
Point blank.
Ren is one of the few who can take his own song, do it acoustically and make it different and equally as good. I saw him in an interview saying he rarely plays a song exactly the same way twice. It means even with his own stuff, you never really know what your going to get.
I don't usually enjoy acoustic versions of songs, but I get so hyped when I see Ren doing one. His creativity and ability is insane.
7:52, The other guitarist is James Marino, a local musician in Los Angeles, where this was filmed. Here's James playing with Sueco in October 2022: ruclips.net/video/n1bnnqSEV4s/видео.html
That's it!🎉🎉🎉
Absolutely loved when you got the Dre bit early doers ❤
That big smile said it all!! You believe us now?! 🤣🤣
Ren is a beast of a musician!!
Loving your Ren reactions, thank you. 🥰
We love watching other ppls face light up when their souls recognize his soul. He's speaking to our subconscious with his music.
Ren adding his special seasoning is always tasty - so glad you gave the acoustic a watch. Showcases his raw brilliance ❤
I don't know if anyone's answered about the guitarist -- he was a studio musician hired for the day. Unbelievable, right? He got the vibe, that's for sure. Thanks, again, for a great reaction.
Your face when that Dre lick dropped! I was waiting for it the whole time. I absolutely just pointed back at you. 😂😂😂
I'm absolutely with you on the official music video thing! I'm the same way with most artists. There's a few acoustic/live versions of songs here and there that I enjoy but, I grew up with MTV and VH1 so, I just love a good music video. Ren, being a busker, is better than a lot of people at lives and acoustics but, I still like the music video versions better because I love the creative visuals he comes up with.
Maybe that's what it is haha. Our era. We enjoyed staying up late and binging hours of music videos, and seeing what the artist had in store for us. That will never change.
@@TheBlackSpeed ~ Yup! Sometimes, I would have to sneak to the living room and sit right up close to the TV because it couldn't be too loud or the adults would catch me. 🤣🤣🤣 Good times.
Ren's amazing but frankly there's two cases where he just shifts gears into something truly special... him being live, and when he works with another artist. The Big Push, Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, Chris Webby, Prof, Bibi, Viktus, the list just goes on and on. And every time the collab turns into something on a whole new level.
That’s what I love about Ren……his ability to totally reinvent a song with an acoustic version💜🔥
Them acoustics tho 😆 🤣
I think you would like "Down on the Beat" because you like that style of Ren Rap.
100% was holding my breath waiting for that riff to hit you. And it was everything I hoped it would be!!! 🤗
Haha of course it did, that's muh people!
Here's the thing with Ren and his live takes of his own music:The official video is really half of it, Ren makes the draft of the video in his head while he creates the song, that's how his mind works, so there is not a single thing that was not intentional, so the audio and the visual together make one whole piece of art. Right. When that is all out of the way, promoting it is over, the video for the song is out... then he can go back and play with it again, and he enjoys it immensely, and it shows, it comes through. This joy, fun and passion, that's what his live bits are. And we enjoy them with him and appreciate the heck out of his effort.
They call us the Renegades.
And we're here
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
#ren
Aww that smile! Great reaction 🩷
I'm happy you did this one and you enjoyed it. They were in LA that is why he shouted out Dre with The Next Episode. So many ppl don't catch it.
I can't wait for the Kugo Beat Down! Let's Go!!!
He also nods at Snoop by changing the original lyric of "bitch" to "bee-otch."
My brain calls these acoustics he does "flip-n-strips". They are so gorgeous.
Ren is always looking to get into flow state, and it's lovely when you can see it happen.
Animal Flow and Animal Flow Acoustic are both wicked good in this way!
He dropped his cover to Bittersweet symphony recently, worth checking out ❤
I really love your Ren reactions... you have such a great smile that i cant help grinning along with you! Dont worry about not enjoying illest of our time, there are a few of his tracks that I skip too, its just personal choice... i just love that he has so many great tracks across so many genres... Keep exploring the rabbit hole, theres so much more to find! x
That smile again lol I enjoy your Ren reactions. Respect.
I think Ren has more fun with the acoustic versions because he can be more free and do more adlibs lol
I was waiting if you gonna pick up on that guitar flow @5:59
Of course I would haha that's my music baby. :)
I like that Ren always mixes it up and has fun with it when he does acoustic/live version. Makes it more interesting than doing the same song just unplugged. Both versions have charm depending on your mood.
I totally get what you mean about music videos vs live. Generally I probably agree. But then there’s Ren. Man is just different 😂
Yep. When Ren gets in the zone it's magical
The Dr Dre sample is taken from a song called "The Edge" written and performed by David McCallum in the 1960's, who is David McCallum... his most famous recent role until his death, was Dr Mallard (Ducky) in NCIS..
I think Ren sees a Studio version and a Live version as 2 different forms of the same art, so puts as much energy into making a Live version as he would put into a studio version. And both versions represent the same vision he had for the finished piece of work.
I'll have to look that up. He was the best part of that show.
Actually "The Edge" was written by David Axelrod. David McCallum conducted his own arrangement of the song on his album "A Bit More of Me" (1967)
@@bonnievonbraun6276 McCallum worked with Axlerod as his music producer on 4 albums with Capitol Records, McCallum records and performs "the Edge" 66-67 and release's it on the "A bit more of me" Album, and eventually Dr Dre Samples it for the intro to "The next episode" and Dre credits McCallum for it on the album...
@@InconSteveHable Ahh! Thanks for the full background!
Yup, that I knew but I'm sure a lot of people in the comments didn't. That's a good bit of education and music history here.
Thanks for doing this one for us! I don’t necessarily think the acoustic versions are better but Ren makes them different enough and absolutely awesome enough to fully love and appreciate both.
oh, will you put Precious by The Big Push on your list?
Brigitta did the visuals for that vid!
Yall are going to help me determine what we listen to. Just gotta be there and watch. :)
So glad the Dre riff caught you off guard! You wouldn’t believe how many people miss it. IMO this is his best stripped acoustic.
The extra guitar riff was a tribute to LA because he filmed it while out there. Thought you'd like the little switch ups. 😂
For an old lady like me it takes me back to the days of MTV unplugged and Ren’s gonna take the time making an acoustic we all might as well watch it. I love your smile❤
I had my first good day in years. My health sucks and I was on cloud nine that I was feeling good. When I got home from my doc appt I had bad news waiting for me. It would be nice to have one good day from beginning to end. Sometimes I want to quit life all together. But I could never do that to the people I love. I'm just tired of not just being in physical pain, but the pain in my heart as well. Now I'm back to my homeostasis, which means I am in constant physical and emotional pain.😢
Hang in there, dude. Love and support.
Keep your head up. You got this. You're still here, still strong, still fighting. You'll have your good day.
The live version of Bitter Sweet Symphony is 🔥!
Such a Fabulous reaction!! ❤❤❤
Agree 💯 this man lives for music ❤❤
Love to see Ren playing like this!
i feel you. he is much better when he is feeling it.
Fun! Fred Again is good singing.
Much love ❤️ Sue
And a good example: Ren went to Fred's concert and got so hit with some of Fred's music that he just had to go and make his own acoustic - re-take. And that's EDM translated to acoustic guitar and voice. And still it is incredible...
Love this❤- Ren always reinvents his music in his live versions- I love both versions in this I love the playfulness- the reggae opening - nods to Jango ❤ and Dre ❤
GOTTCHA!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I get what you’re saying about studio and for the most part….. with other artists I’m usually Digg’n the original . With Ren though , he brings something extra special with his acoustic versions that just take them to another level .
I find that the studio versions tend to be highly condensed , chopped, sped up and devoid of soul . Songs are sterilized and perfect in a clinical sense. Great for radio .
Either way , the original is fire. No getting around that . This acoustic version though….. I’m glad you liked it too .
Plenty of room in the heart .
Cheers man , keep it going
🍻🇨🇦
Loved your reaction to the Dre part. Funny 😂❤ Thanks for this. 👍
lol yes we knew, both fantastic, another awesome reaction, thank you Sir 🙏🐊❤️🦉👍
I'm glad you watched the acoustic version too. Loved your reaction to the Dr. Dre bit. You have a great smile.😁
5:52 Ahahaha! 😁😁😁 Once I saw you were doing this version too, I was eagerly awaiting the 5:52 moment. I just can't comprehend how Ren is able to add that completely different riff while keeping the time of his original beat/song and go back to it as if he didn't interrupt himself. F'ing crazy. So.singing, rapping, playing acoustic, and playing a second song within it like that's nothing. 🙄
Loooove your reaction man as always 😍 The hook of Murderer in the music video is in my top 5 hooks 😂 Just share your thoughts so much about music 😉 Really, your my favorite reactor ! You're smart, I love your analyses and most of all, I connect 💯 with the vibes and thoughts you have in music ! Yeah you talked about the guitarist and you're the first one I hear talking about him and thanks ! He set the mood for sure ! Ready for you is also my favorite Ren songs above all ❤️ Genesis on the other side in rap style is my number one but lately, I've been captivated, almost obsessed with the song Insomnia... So, if I feel music the way you do, check this one please, I want to hear how you feel about this song ... The mood and the atmosphere of this song is unique ... Piano and guitar ... special one. Deep in the rabbit hole, not for beginners. Thanks 🤞😘😢
Aw, this was kind of you.
The other guitarist was James Marino from LA where they filmed the video.
This was shot in Los angels , , I was at that same trail park the day before he film this video I hate myself for not going the say he film this video
I also love official videos for the visuals and story telling, but I often enjoy listening to the live versions more. 💜
What a lovely surprise this evening 😂 I was hyped during the whole 9 day lead up to the official version, as it’s one of my favorite songs, but I certainly didn’t expect you to do the acoustic, much less so close on the heels of the original.
Watching his nod hit you was beautiful 🤍 cheers
Look at me, doing what I can for myself and the people. You know I got you. ;) Very welcome and glad you liked it.
Hey, i knew you'd like this , thanks ❤.I've seen it hundreds of times, James on the other guitar is great too. 👍 ❤
Fun video.
We had to. We had no choice. Couldn't just let you enjoy murderer. It's in the book club rule book (definitely not a cult).
#274. Drive TheBlackSpeed crazy. 😁😁😁 .... he he we knew we'd get you with that bit. 😉❤
Rofl I feel like there is a corner of the fandom, a small band of misfits, that just want to drive me up a damn wall hahaha. I love yall anyway.
🤣
I was determined to win the signed glove from Murderer comp I listened to this song on repeat for days so I was so happy when a different version came out 😂😂🍀🍻🍀🍻
Knew you'd like it. Livevthe guitar. 🔥🔥🔥
Great reaction brutha...that one was fun
🙃🙂
Hold up… Heyyyyyy
🤛😎👍🔥
Acoustic always brings something different.
🔥🌳🌬️💨
Have a great day!
Think I like the acoustic best.❤
Lovely reaction! Don't worry about timing. We waitin'. :-)
Ohh you did the acoustic awesome bro 👍👍👍
I think you're my favorite reactor because you're the only one that says your true feelings about a song. Most just say how great it is even if they don't really like it.
That's all I can do, and I'm always glad when I read comments like this that like it. :) Thank you, and I'm happy to be your favorite!
Yes! Forgot how much I love this one! He just has music flowing through his veins 😊TY for doing this one, glad you liked it!
Caught you 😂😂
Awesome
Gotcha!!😂😂❤❤
I think the guitarist name is James Melino(?). Hired on the recommendation of another artist in the LA area Ren is working with.
( i suspect Dirt Miller)
6:20 Shake that thang 🥳
Great reaction 👍
You can't go wrong with Ren ❤
Ren's live versions are a different animal than the studio versions.
'Cause we didnt tell you , wanted to see you catch it ❤
Absolutely loved your reaction!!!!! Ren is absolute fire!!! I loved both the official video and this live version for different reasons. I adore Ren❤ can you check out REN’s recent drop of live Bittersweet symphony… so good!!!❤
I agree with the Official MV ,especially considering it’s Ren so they’re done with his vision of the song - and they add so much artistry.
EXCEPT for this one. The nods to Dre and Snoop with LA in the background.
It's actually amazing
My man… put the suit on.. dapper af ❤
I agree about preferring the studio versions! I love Ren's acoustic versions, but drives me a little nuts how some people are so aggressively committed to telling every reactor that EVERY acoustic version is better. Theyre not. This one is one of the best and I can see the argument, but the acoustic/live for animal flow, genesis..meh, they can be skipped IMO. (dont come at me renegades, Im one of you!) THanks for the great reactions!
Agreed troubles defo isn’t. This is class, not better, just different, same with bitter sweet.
The fact he did tune from Genesis puts it up there for me.
I'm the opposite, I nearly always prefer the acoustic versions. I actually wasn't that keen on Animal Flow, until I heard/saw the acoustic version. An incredible performance! I've always thought that Genesis, although a decent track, was massively overrated by fans but I love the acoustic version. As for songs like Chalk Outlines, or Money Game 3, I don't know how anyone can't prefer the live versions! :) Ren's busking stuff, solo, with The Big Push or Sam Tompkins is some of my favourite stuff from Ren and I love his jam session with Liv Sangster and his occasional livestream jams. Unlike you though, I recognise that taste is subjective. I'm only saying what I prefer, rather than claiming some objective truth. I find it steange that some people have an aversion to live performance because, for me that's the heart and soul of music! Especially for an artist like Ren where it shines through! He says he happiest performing live and I think it shows. I love his studio work but I REALLY love his live performances. Hi Ren, Money Game, Money Game 3, Chalk Outlines, How to Be Me, I Shot the Sheriff, Man's World, Improvising Around Stevie Wonder, Heart Shaped Box, Englishman in New York, Fred Again Mashup, Back on 74... His list of magnificent live performances just goes on and on... For me anyway. :)
We wouldn't say that if we didn't feel it for our own reasons. Everyone decides for themselves. There are very specific reasons I usually prefer the acoustic versions.
@@OleelO I'm hugely into rap but prefer some of his acoustic performances. It's not that deep. People like what they like.
The amazing thing about Ren doing acoustic versions of his songs, is he makes them sound like u are listening to a completely different song! He did the same thing with Icarus/Acustarus and Sweet Little Lady! If u haven't dove down The Big Push rabbithole yet, u are seriously missing out!!
Nope, not yet. We have a live version coming (that I'm titling The Big Stream) and it's going to be grand. I'm doing a poll soon on the Community page. Be sure to check it out and vote!
@@TheBlackSpeed Sweet!! Will do!
I avoided this live till now for pretty much the same reasons you state,HOWEVER this was fkn fire 🎉 great react
Glad you were digging it as always, Raymond!
Great reaction. I usually like studio versions, too. (which for some reason, some people treat you like a weirdo for saying) but I do like this version of Murderer best and also the live version of Bitter Sweet Symphony, though I really love the video for his original version
Lol I ignore that, I think it's just a different era and/or, as always, it's just because it's Ren and he has an interesting fanbase. I grew up in the music video era and that's where my head remains.
Speeeeed, I’m holding out for The Big Push live 🙏 so here for it!! please throw in some ren and Sam Tompkins on that live too. 🫶🏼
Oh it's coming, I'm going to create the poll today! :)
💥
@@Lotus.Lottie Hope you saw it, voted, and ready to hop in!
@@TheBlackSpeed I did!! And I will be defo hopping in, looking forward to it!! Thanks for letting me know just in case
You are one of the best going over music.
That's very kind of you, I'm doing my best! Thank you. :)
So ...I couldn't tell if you liked this one or not.....lol jk see? We're almost always right lol
the Dre sample BlackSpeed starts to "crip walk" to is actually much much older and was sampled from a song called "The Edge"... a nice little jazz piece done by David McCallum in the mid '60s... he was the same dude who played "Ducky" in the crime drama NCIS... and the dude was white as fuk, lol... i mean like snow... always gets me when i see people doing the walk to that and not even knowing where it actually comes from... its a sweet number, maybe BackSpeed will check it out?? its a short piece, but obviously made a mark on us
Lol that I know, anything involving hip-hop I keep myself pretty in tune. Just didn't expect Ren to do it, so it was a nice surprise for me. I appreciate that education though, I know a lot of people in the comments section wouldn't have known that.
I’m ready for this drop coming.
Always a good time!
Out in the Street, they call it…
Murder-Ren
Hmmm . . . I think in Ren's case the acoustic is actually it's own song, not to be compared to the "official version". The second guitarist is James Marino, I believe.
Great reaction ❤ love ren I also think he’s great in a band called the big push.
Yup, we're going to do a live stream of that soon this month. Stay tuned on my Community page (if you're subbed to me) for a poll on when we should do it and go live!
😂 see, we knew you would dig on this! ❤❤
I figured you'd appreciate the musicality here. To me they're 2 totally different songs. I hear music before lyrics, maybWe that's why. Depends on my mood which one I listen. People are Ren's team except for guitar player.
Totally agree!! I normally really love the acoustic versions of his songs and normally prefer them, but yeah, I prefer the original to this. It’s just such a vibe. I like this version, just not as much.
Also, awwww! You should totally dance more in your reactions 🥹
You and I always sharing the same opinions haha. And I will do my best when I'm feeeeelin' it.
😊
This is one of the few times I have preferred the Live Version of a song over the studio track. I checked your Ren Playlist and I didn’t see Losing It. Fisher Rap Retake (UK speak for Remix). Hope you check it out!
Yup, haven't done Losing It yet, it's coming soon. :)
Loved this. Was waiting since I saw you doing the original for this. Same song, two different feels is perfect depending on my mood I can switch it up. I have a feeling you’d like - Blind Eye by Ren and Sam Tompkins or Ren -Fred Again
I actually did the Fred Again Mashup. You should check it out and comment what you think. :)
@@TheBlackSpeed watching it now. Nice heads up !!
Loving your enthusiasm and the smiles Ren puts on your face 😉 Please make sure you check out the video on his channel regarding the Kujo shitshow and don’t forget to react to Kujo Beatdown on Thursday in support of Ren 👍
Hope you've seen it by now and enjoyed it. :)
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Come on crip walking
From a New Orleans regular customer, ai approved.
Lmao
Ren has just dropped his dis track to kujo. Check it out and react it is 🔥
I’m guessing animal flow recorded and live will be coming up lol, thank you 🙏🐊❤️🦉👍
Haha I only did the official version, but one day I'll do the acoustic. :)
Had a short look and saw you didn't do "Hold On" by now. He goes Nuts^^ atleast give it a private listen, you'll miss out if not :D *edit* oh and its a studiorecording on his Demoes
Check out the original murderer by Barrington levi its 🔥🔥🔥
😊❤
