Those wires were his lavelier mike and the plug in for his acoustic guitar (he had it on his back). Ren is from the UK, born in Wales lived in Brighton did an arts college and was doing really well with busking in Brighton (there are lots of Busking performances with The Big Push, the bad he is part of for busking). At 17 he got a contract from Sony, but shortly after that he got really severe exhaustion and health issues (after which Sony dropped him), this was initially diagnosed as a psychological problem and he went on heavy meds, but the problems persisted. Forward 7 years and he got a second opinion and it was discovered he was completely misdiagnosed and actually had Lyme's Disease, which was wreaking havoc on his body for those 7 years. Right now he is in Canada receiving treatment for his Lyme's Disease (which among other things caused him brain damage and as a consequence Psychosis). He's been a lot better, but he is still very much ill, but at least he can make music again.
Ren is a very, very versatile artist, multi-instrumentalist, singer and (a very good) rapper. His music is not easy to categorise (he himself half jokingly calls it Bardcore) since he does a lot of different things, he has straight up rap songs, but also absolutely gorgeous (and highly emotionally charged) songs with other artists. I highly recommend diving into his discography. For Rn singing check out his live performances with The Big Push and'his song 'Chalk Outlines'with Uk singer Chinchilla. For a truly amazing (if harrowing) shakespearen tragedy check out his 'The Tale of Jenny and Screech' (make sure you check out the 'full' version, it's actually three songs that are connected as story and the best way to get everything is seeing them all in a row) . For more of his rap check out 'Genesis', 'The Hunger' and his newest song (which he just dropped) "Illest of our Time". Ren is an independent artist without a label, and he wants to stay that way, so reacting to his songs gives him great exposure.
Sorry for the wall of text.
thank you for this info! Is it known whether Ren will be able to fully recover from those 7 years of having undetected Lyme disease?
@@abercrombieuser12345 Unknown. He's currently having treatment in Canada (funded by his GoFundMe page), but in recent comments he has made he seems to be resigning himself to the fact that he may always have some lasting issues and may have to learn to live with it and get on with living.
Probably not completely
@@abercrombieuser12345 From what I know of Lyme, probably not. Unless you catch Lyme early, and throw a lot of anti-biotics at it, it will become a chronic disease (which is why you always wanna get tick bites looked at. That is not always possible if you don't notice, but Lyme's is no effing joke)
I love the fact you can fill in the gaps, the man is a genius, as an ex touring muzo from the eighties this guy is unreal . I wish him and his band so much love and success. I never board of listening to him/them
Ren's trilogy "The Tale of Jenny, Screech & Violet" is fascinating! It demonstrates his amazing storytelling and guitar skills. Look for the "FULL" version
All three takes must be played in order and in one reaction.
Creepy and sad, but brilliant!!
2nd That!!!
It reminds me of a bard come forward from the Victorian or Edwardwian era to sing classic tales of tragedy about modern people and topics.
Ren just turned 33 (and released a rap track on the occasion), he is Welsh born, studied in Bath and lives in Brighton (UK)... now in Canada for several months for treatment and surgery.
This is a legit rabbit hole you're getting into.. the man can play amazing guitar in multiple genres, and sing in even more.. he's a rapper at heart, with heavy influences from reggae, ska, metal, classic rock, 90's hip hop... he does a lot of his own stuff which tends to be heavy and introspective and tackle the biggest themes in life (he's had a lot of health issues that he is still working through, both physical and mental, caused by an undiagnosed Lyme disease that ravaged his body and mind for 8 year before proper treatment was found)...
and then there's the whole chapter of him busking and singing all kinds of stuff with his band, from Police to Black Sabbath, from Bob Marley to... Manu Chao, of all things (90's represent :P ).
His own music is also crossing multiple genres, as do his videos that he personally has a big hand in directing and conceptualising. He is the full package, and he is not working with a label.
His more intimate and personal songs are mostly inspired by his own medical history, and other life experiences (such as losing friends to suicide)
Hope you go down the Ren rabbit hole. He contracted Lyme disease that went undiagnosed for years that put him through physical and emotional hell. He is from the UK but is in Canada right now receiving treatment. He just turned 33 yesterday or the day before. Not sure how much of a fan of rap you are, and sometimes extremely fast rapping at that, but he is definitely a breath of fresh air amidst all the current music stagnancy. If you want dark storytelling to the extreme and only listen and react to one other song, I would recommend "The tale of Jenny and Screech (Full version)" ... the 3 songs all stitched together into 1 presentation
TRUTH!
So much of what happens in this performance is not about mental illness but that nagging voice of doubt that we all have that can prevent us from reaching for our maximum potential. There are several other performances available plus some great songs with The Big Push where he and others sing and he plays various guitars as they busk in Brighton.
Those wires are his cords for his guitar pickup and his mic...Yes...THAT was live! He is 33 years old.
Ren's birthday was just the other day, he is now 33. As to this style he refers to it as Bardcore. He seems to be able to do all forms of music, but he seems tobprefer to do rap.
The Big Push with Ren does a great cover of Sabbath War Pigs, incorporate RATM and other Sabbath songs. Doing it live on a street in Brighton
Do his live mashup of ''I Shot the Sherriff / Zion / Hip Hop' next. Trust me.
For more of Ren's captivating storytelling, I'd reccomend "the Tale of Jenny and Screech (full)".
For more of his incredible *singing* i'd suggest "Chalk Outlines - Ren X Chinchilla"
Congratz with finding Ren. Now you a have a lot of great things to hear from him.
TRUTH!
As a foreigner it´s almost impossible to understand everything he´s saying. You need to read the lyrics. Even native english speakers have problems! Ren is a genius
He just turned 33 yrs old on Wednesday. BTW he just released his new song on his BD, it is called 'illest of our time.' He raps like a madman.
PS... he records all his videos Live, and in One Shot! Of course it may take a few tries! He's a Major Busker over there... so he's a Master at Performance!
He's 100% Independant, he makes his own beats/music, plays Many instruments!
Not all of his videos. The Tales trilogy and some other ones are one-take videos but Hi Ren is not. Samuel Perry-Falvey who filmed it, clarifies that in the comments of Jonathan Hiller's reaction to the song.
As a Solo artist he does a lot of story telling and hip hop.... He also has a band he leads called The Big Push which gets more into Rock which it sounds like you might like
You’d love all the stuff his band The Big Push puts out, and his trilogy as some have said “The Tale of Jenny and Screech (FULL)"
Ren recorded this live in one take
Samuel Perry-Falvey who filmed Hi Ren, talks about it in the comments of Jonathan Hiller's reaction to the song. Sound was recorded live, yes, but the video is not a one-take video.
@@hmo_mackey Does this matter? If you want one takes audio and video,, check out the story of Jenny and Screech & Violet.
@@thomasgoldschmidt298 I've seen them several times, thanks.
The wires you saw at the end were the mic hookup - the video was a live performance of the song. That little fact always blows me away.
There's so much to discover and unpack from Ren. A true ARTist.
Dive down the rabbithole, you'll be surprised by the versatility 😉
Great reaction. This is the kind of artistry that gives "broken" people hope. Ren, through this performance piece, has become to a lot of people exactly what he stated in the song, "...the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on the rope". So powerful, so impactful. The song structure itself is incredible. It starts off as a battle between his positive (Angel) and negative (Demon) aspects, the negative then makes an overpowering last ditch effort to reign supreme, tearing free and trying to take control, but ultimately fails as the final act, being the "God" aspect, emerges Triumphant, though still acknowledging and accepting that it will ALWAYS be a battle because we are all "a coin with 2 different sides". It's a beautifully cathartic and raw musical masterpiece. Ren is truly special. Welcome to the Ren rabbit-hole, it's a trip worth taking. This was the 4th take he did and yes, it was done live. Wait until you hear some of his other stuff, especially his storytelling ("The Tale of Jenny & Screech"). You haven't even touched the breadth of this young man's talent yet.
The pig character represents the doctors and therapist who have essentially butchered him for years through their misdiagnosis. He literally thought he was going insane because he was told repeatedly that the pain and symptoms he was experiencing were all in his head (psychosomatic). Turns out he had Lyme's disease the whole time and it ran rampant through his system for 10 years, even to the point of causing brain damage. Ironically, if Ren hadn't gone through what he has, would he have ever made this work of art? There's no question that his suffering has shaped his music, he was forged in fire, and now he's finally getting the recognition he undoubtedly deserves. I've said it before, I'll say it again, Ren is special.
Hold On Girl... the Ren Rabbit Hole is DEEP!!! And ALL Reactors are stupified by his art! At a loss for words!
More Ren, i am in. He is a amazing performer.
Get your tissues ready for Jenny, Sreeyt and Violet
Ren is 33 does many styles should check out The Tale of Jenny and Screech....he also goes full rap with his new song well he did on a few others. This guy is on a different level.
Thanks for sharing 🥰
Well done 👍
Next Stop???
Nf-Hope ! ! !
NF is great and all but thr next stop needs to be more ren! NF isn’t in his level with everything Ren does is taken into consideration imo
speechless is more or less the general reaction to this chap, as the guy below suggested, the ren rabbithole is a very entertaining and recommended journey, happy travels
I love that the first line he proper sings (not just raps) is “Cower at the man I become, when I sing at the top of my lungs”. So powerful, and also so meta.
He did this live.
He also has many different genres of his musical genius
1) Nylon string classical guitar
2) Rap delivery
3) No distortion
4) No solos
5) No rock or metal tropes
6) Absolutely one of the most metal songs ever written.
This is a hill I'm willing to die on.
Edit to add: New sub. I can't wait to see you discover the rest of his catalog. It will shake up how you feel about the fallacy of genre. I'll be checking out your music as well.
Until next time!
Good Reaction. You must see the tale of Jenny & Screech (trilogy - full story) or the tale of Jenny, Screech and Violet in that exact order. It will be great to appreciate Ren's storytelling side.
But there is more, much more. See "Chalk Outlines", "Losing It", "The Hunger", "Diazepam" "Money Game", etc... The lyrics are the best!
Great Reaction, Anastasia! I look forward to following your reactions. Have you heard of Tom MacDonald? I am thinking you would absolutely love any of his songs. Keep up your insightful, enthusiastic reactions! Всего доброго!
Great reaction!
For your mum. Take the lyrics and put them in Google translate and than you manually correct the translation. That is if you can't find an already made translation.
🤓🇸🇪
You won't see him live for a little while still. Ren is still undergoing some serious treatments in Canada and still has some more surgeries and recovery. He's been going though a living hell on and off for over half his life now and hopefully with our prayers he'll be back better then ever. Here are a few of my favorites Ren singles. Plus since you're a rocker I'll give you some songs by Ren and his band The Big Push.
1) "The Hunger" ruclips.net/video/1T_fLytBFM4/видео.html where Ren shows off his Rapping Skills in (Beast Mode). It's mostly just fun smack talk.
2) "The Money Game part 2" ruclips.net/video/YonS9_QJbp8/видео.html over 7mil views. A commentary on corporate greed and government corruption.
3) "What You Want" ruclips.net/video/jrjp4Du0rEc/видео.html A tribute to late 80's early 90's rap that has a Beastie Boys vibes.
4) Ren - "Blind Eyed" ft. Sam Tompkins ruclips.net/video/xjF_JTbBZjQ/видео.html Ren gives us RnB vibes mixed with touches of Jazz on this, ending with some sick bars.
NOW THE BIG PUSH FAVORITES 😁
1) The Big Push - Watch Out (live busking performance) ruclips.net/video/x0YPR4wX2rg/видео.html
2) The Big Push - Sweet Little Lady (live striped down version) ruclips.net/video/7gARCb013cw/видео.html
3) The Big Push - Why My Woman? ruclips.net/video/7b2m5lBcJ64/видео.html While I prefer to recommend live performances, I need to recommend the music video for "Why My Woman" because it's just so damn good. Enjoy the rabbit hole. Cheers!
Great reaction - Ren transcends musical genres with amazing talent and soul. He’s the real fucking deal. 🤘🏼🎧🤟🏼 He was wired up with mic, since it was recorded live.
I'll say it again... he's On His OWN LEVEL!!! No One Compares to him!!!
I’ll repeat that FACT
He’s On His OWN LEVEL!!! No One Compares to him!!!!!!!
Subbing now... I cannot wait to see ya do his "Jenny and Screech" Trilogy!!!
Do his Full version... it's all 3 stories in one video! Keep in mind he made them Years apart... making a continuing story!
He's a MASTER Rapper (Sick Boi, Hunger, Losing It, Illest of our time!) And Storyteller, Beat Maker and mixer, Poet, Singer!!!! He's on a Whole Other Level!!!
Ren had described his music as 'bardcore'.
He jumps from genre to genre seemingly effortlessly. Incredible musician. Don’t be afraid of getting a rap song as his rap is about as far away from Drake as you can get.
Your what makes Ren so refreshing, nothing fake there, he actually has talent, thank you for reminding us why he's so great.
You definitely b need to do his “Tale of Jenny & Screech (full)” next. It’s a brilliant journey!
I hope for more Ren reactions, and i thank you for this reaction! 👍
Glad you found him, I found him a couple of months ago, I found you when you were reacting to Beth Hart, ( you need to get back to her) if you love this you will love the tale of Jenny and Screech, the full 13 1/2 minutes version, a performance, a story and a mini thriller series in one, also the big push, his band and ren x chinchilla, chalk outlines all f--ing brilliant, as is everything available of his, by the way he doesn’t block reactors, he wants to get his music to the biggest possible audience and often gets back to reactors, so watch your comment!!!😊
Ren's kicking a$$ in '23...and I'm loving every second of it! Every day is a Ren day!🎉🎉🎉
Song is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ren is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Reaction is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
..thank you lady...I enjoyed that ! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Lady I don't know who you are but I loved your reaction. Ren is amazing. :)
Welcome to the rabbithole. It goes deep, Alice.
You're about to discover you are a huge fan of Rap, Hip-Hop, Soul Ballads, Reggae, Folk, etc. I'm Subbing because I want to watch this.
Fantastic reaction my friend welcome to ren an amazing artist the best to come out of the UK for years 67 year old great grandad love and respect from the UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍
Great reaction. I saw Hi Ren more than 3 months ago and still watching reactions... it's a wonderful thing that this song is still spreading.
A few of my Ren favorites which rarely get mentioned are: Money Game 1 and 2, as well as busking with his band: The Big Push - I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop. Really, his range of styles is limitless. He really is that genius he mentioned.
Thank you sister! Great reaction! Your Mom will love it
Great reaction to this GENIUS. I've subscribed in anticipation of you reacting to more Ren.
Lots of Reacters, like yourself, are gaining so much from reacting to Ren's talent so it' sad they don't all VERBALLY prompt their viewers to take a minute & subscribe to him youtube.com/@RenMakesMusic
I can't believe Hi Ren, alone, has over 9m views but Ren has less than 1m subscribers 🤔 I'm sure he would feel all the support his art deserves, especially as he's undergoing treatment for his long standing illness right at this moment.
Looking forward to seeing your next Ren reaction.
Cheers 👍🍻
He does have parents who were/are in theatre and film. His mum is a voice trainer.
Welcome to the RENaissance. ❤
His elocution is amazing, but he can speak very quickly. Thankfully, he pins the lyrics to all of his music in the comments.
He got his start busking on the streets of Brighton, so he started as a one man show and had to draw in his own crowd. He's got some great recordings of his busking days, especially with the Big Push.
All of his music is great, but from here, it's typically recommended to move on to Chalk Outlines ft Chinchilla (live) and The Tale of Jenny & Screech (full), which was originally released as three separate videos.
And from there, my recommendations include: Losing It. The Hunger. Power. What You Want. Genesis. And last, but very much not least, his two latest releases: Sick Boi and Illest of Our Time, both of which go hard.
Please do Crutch from Ren and BiBi it is hauntingly beautiful
Mental illness is something everyone has pretty much experienced at one time or another. Mental illnesses are health conditions involving changes in emotion, thinking or behavior (or a combination of these). Mental illnesses can be associated with distress and/or problems functioning in social, work or family activities. What can trigger mental illness in someone? So many things such as childhood abuse, trauma, or neglect. social isolation or loneliness. experiencing discrimination and stigma, including racism. social disadvantage, poverty or debt, self doubt, self worth....****the beauty of this song is that it helps soook many people to realize and understand that others are going through similar things and that you are not alone feeling the way you do. It helps and it helps many.
There's 10 years of Ren stuff for you to go through, that he's been putting up ever since Sony records dropped him when he started to get ill.
Check it all out. I am yet to find a bad Ren track.
💕 a woman who's not afraid to drop an F bomb!
Subbed so I can follow you through the Ren Rabbit hole
Who else wants to see a duo of Ren and Anastasia!?!? Seriously... that would be Awesome!!!
I've always been of the belief that you don't hear a song you feel it. This is a perfect example of it. 🙂✌️
Ren, Ren X Chinchilla, The Big Push....all beyond amazing!!!! The guy is a young legend, already!!
From what I understand, this video was a single take/live recording
Audio was recorded live and maybe even in a single take but the video is not a one-take video. Samuel Perry-Falvey who filmed it, clarifies that in the comments of Jonathan Hiller's reaction to the song.
You caught the half step. Most people don't catch it. The wires at the end was him removing his microphone. The performance was live one take.
Loved your reaction to this brilliant video.
I don't know for sure how Ren learned the guitar, but I'd say no he wasn't classically trained, but likely was mostly self-taught. Just the way he plucks and uses his left hand reminds me of my friend Steve back when we learned to play.
Great reaction😊 love new people finding ren, and watching their reaction. I can promise you have absolutely no idea what an amazing journey you are about to take, buckle up🤣
TRUTH!
His Videos are Unreal! You'll obviously catch all the details behind him! He sets up the shoots, picks the Perfect spots!
You're gonna Love his Jenny and Screech trilogy!!!!
Please.... Do NOT watch before recording!!!!!!!! You'll see why! 😏😎😊
You nailed it!
The independent Artist are Kicking Ass!!!!
And we are Loving it!!!
Welcome to the RENaissance!
It's Ren & he is a solo Independent artist 😉👌🎶
It's our job to be human. It's why we are here, and Ren has discovered that truth and presented it from his own unique experience of life. The reason we have never seen his like before is that he was never needed before. This is gonna be his time, and our time along with him.
Warning Ren is addictive!!!!
awesome - welcome to the RENnaissance.
RUclips's auto-captions are almost always a distraction more than anything, especially with an artist who enunciates as clearly as Ren, so I've found that the best thing to do with them is to turn them off.
It's so crazy how SO many of the reaction videos I've watched are leaving people fairly speechless.
I’d say around 150 of the ones I’ve watched have been speechless. Maybe more!
If you are willing to see him sing, go for chalkout lines, if you want rapping, go for the Hunter, or genesis,or the last one, the illest of our times, for stoytelling, Jenny screech and violet's tale, or best of all , go for allof them.
Oh!... and I didn't even appreciate rap before listening to Ren!....
Same here. I am a Metalhead. Nothing will ever change that, but I will always preciate honosty in music.
We are all Ren.
It's Art.
I couldn't agree with you more on the specific point about how _clear_ he is --- how easy he is to understand. I'm so bad with any non-American accent (... and many of the _American_ accents, too) that I need subtitles to watch British _movies._ But I rarely have trouble with a word in any of Ren's songs ("hierarchic breeding ground" in Illest Of Our Time gave me some trouble though ;) ) --- the boy can _enunciate!_
You will want to research after hearing this ! 😊
I kinda wish that subtitles were not on this video because Ren is very clear in his enunciation so they are not required. It distracts from the experience that is "Hi Ren" sorry, venting my own pet peeve about the video . I love that you love Ren so Let's Hip hop and drob down the Renbit hole shall we.? I hear the Warren we will be in is 10 years long 😊
Immediate sub. Excellent reaction! 🤠You mentioned that artists like Ren, who go against the grain of what most people tend to view as "acceptable" entertainment, give you a sense of hope. That's exactly what I felt when I first saw Hi Ren a few weeks ago and then delved into his other work. It's not only the fact that he's doing this great music and storytelling that gives me hope, but the fact that so many people--including my favorite reactors--are discovering him and understanding where he's coming from.
All the wires were because this was a live recording. You can see a small microphone on his collar, but I imagine there was a boom mike (or two) as well.
I’m sure you will do it. However, the best way to react to rent is to give your thoughts right at the end just because his artistry of deserved and listen to as a piece of art in its own right at once and then perhaps give you some feedback. He is a true musical an artistic genius. I absolutely love this guy
Rens Children of the Moon is Definitely whatcha want!!!!
Honestly was so depressed with humans until I heard hum and people loving it
He has a 360° camera shot performance live in one someplace in the UK, but if you look it up I’m sure it will be on his actual RUclips channel
next: story of jenny and screech. 13 min. but sooo freakin awesome!
Also... find and watch the video of him reacting to reactors! A couple days after releasing his last video, illest of our time, he was streaming when he checked online... and had an emotional moment!
He's the Real Deal!!!
Sooo Talented!!!
MASTER Storyteller, Rapper, Poet, Beat making and mixing, videograpghy... he does it all!
We are all Rendears, that celebrate the genre fluid Renaissance.
You got started...
WOW
wow
Love the fact that you have no filters in your reaction, just pure honesty.
You are f**king awesome!
Thank you, Anastasia!!❤
Tom MacDonald - Dear Rappers
Nova Rockafeller - Problem at Kinda neat studios [white flip-flops]
Broadnax - Nola
Madchild - Rock Bottom
Brandon Hart - Dealing With
He did 3 takes. This is the one take he liked best. He's amazing. So talented. He speaks those words that are in between all of the others. The important ones.
If you want to see him truly sing like an angel watch "Chalk Outlines" by Ren & Chinchilla LIVE (he uses a hallways for natural reverb) it's about depression, addiction and over prescription or "How to Be Me" by Ren & Chinchilla LIVE, it's about a friend of Ren who self deleted himself on the bridge where they sing.
More Ren please!! The tale of Jenny & Screech (full) will blow your mind!!
I love finding new great reactors who have just discovered Ren because you are in for an amazing ride!
Hey. Great reaction. New sub here. Just a little addition, because I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet but the reason he is mic'd up and his guitar is plugged in is because he did this live as a 1 take. No stopping, no pausing. He did it 4 times and chose his favorite of the 4. He is also NOT classically trained. He is a self-taught guitarist. He learned by slowing down songs that he wanted to learn. (Ren, if you see this, please correct me if I'm wrong mate! Keep fighting the good fight young man! MUCH RESPECT AND LOVE!)
LIVE PERFORMANCE!!
