Ren was misdiagnosed for many years with Bipolar Disorder and Chronic Fatigue. Doctors told him his problems were all psychological and treated him with meds that just made him worse. He could barely eat and could not function, staying in bed most of the time. He was not sure he'd survive. He was finally diagnosed with Lyme Disease, which had caused brain damage and damage to his immune system by that point. So - he has a lot to say about our medical system, as well as the music industry - he had been signed by Sony at 17, but was dropped when he became ill.
Gotta remember that his initial diagnosis & treatments in the UK (before they knew it was Lyme's Disease) were on the NHS, so it cost him nothing, I'm guessing. Don't know if that makes it better or worse...
@@lowwatthalo1654 Ren did say that he spent thousands on numerous treatments and supplements when the traditional medical care just made him worse and worse. There is a video of him discussing the severity of his illness when he was at his lowest.
Seeing you boys going from your first reaction (Hi Ren) where you were kinda unconvinced about him and seeing your journey up to this point has been fun af. You’re bigger fans than me now. 💀
Awww guys that was a really moving reaction ❤ Ren is giving a voice to all the millions of victims of the pharmaceutical industry and those with complex health issues who are given the one size fits all heavy on the medication treatment.
I feel like a proud mom when I see people react to our boy Ren, he's a musical genius, everything he does is a masterpiece! He's also a really lovely guy, so humble. Thanks for a fab reaction!!
You know I was a little worried about y'all when you did HI Ren but have to say I now look forward every day for your Ren reactions. Keep up the good work
To clarify, "Hi Ren" is live because he's singing and playing while filming, unlike "Sick Boi" where they are playing the song pre-recorded while Ren lip syncs to it. An audience isn't needed for it to be considered live.
Good stuff guys! Love your reactions. I think one reason Ren does not have 1 million subs is because most people are watching his video's through reaction channels. They may not ever get around to going to his page and subbing. The good side of that is that it lifts up the reactor channels and everybody grows. Also that his fan base is way bigger than what his sub number actually shows. ;)
Hi Ren was performed live. They did four takes total, using 3 stationary cameras plus one handheld. ALL of the audio and most of the visual content is the 4th take, the monolog at the end being from a different take. They just edited in post between all the camera views shot in the same take. Glad you reacted to this beat. It's PERFECT to me -- tense and angry, matching the lyrics and the setting. Love you guys and your reactions❤
The thing that people don't know about the American dream, is you have to be asleep to have it. "I love the country, but I don't trust the people takin' care of us We went to bed with the American dream, we woke up in Night-merica"
Nice guys, glad you checked this out - mean beat and heavy message - that's Ren, he drives it home, every time! The guy is on the mission! You're so close to 10K, be there before the end of the week!
For Hi Ren, Sam cleared this up in the comments of another reactor. The music was in one shot, but the video had to be chopped up because the close up cameras would have been in some of the shots. The spoken word was a separate take. Still amazing that the music was all done live there!
New subscriber from Scotland. Glad you guys are going thru Rens back log x I've gone thru Rens torture for 20 years, get nothing but tablets,tablets,tablets. It's functional they say. 😢😅
Ren is that MONSTER none of us saw coming ! Song is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Ren is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Reaction is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 .... thanks guys...I appreciate you. Job well done. 🎉🎉🎉
I want to tell you guys that you are one of only two reaction channels that I re-watch videos of . I watch alot of reactors. Some are singers , or Rappers , or musicians. Some are sound engineers, some break down bars , some just break down . Many I love , but you guys bring me back time and time again in particular your Sam Tompkins, Ren , and Chinchilla Videos I think I have watched them numerous times. They just put a smile on my face , and warm my heart . Also I feel like you guys are straight shooters , you call them like you feel - em . You guys need a whole lot more subs . P.S. discovered you through your Larry bird reaction 😂
Brothaz, another fire reaction. This has to be one of my favourite tracks of REN. I can relate to it so much. I’d love to see you react to another unique rapper from Australia. She is one of our indigenous sista’s over here. She raps the truth about her own struggles and the struggle of our people. BARKAA “fight for me” This track hits hard, it’s about BARKAAs journey as a mother struggling with addiction and in and out of prison. 👊🏽🖤💛❤️👊🏽
Nice reaction, just gonna change the subject, guy on the left you look the spit of Alex Iwobi bro Everton football player in the premier league. Uncanny resemblence. Anywho keep up the good work. Smashing it lads.
Yo Ive been following and enjoying all ur guys reactiions, I found Ren same time y'all did and been loving the ride down the Ren Rabbit Hole, keeps getting better! I scrolled through real quick looking for your Coast Contra reactions and didnt see any? Maybe I just missed em let me know, but if you havent done any reactions to them... put it this way Coast rabbit hole is rt there with Ren or Harry Mack...Lyrical monsters that spit substance bars, they are Real Hip Hop the way it was supposed to be! Coast fans havent got new reactions in awhile think people would love new react from U2... If you havent checked them out yet start with Never Freestyle, then Speechless, Scenario, you'll be on your way down the rabbit he by then!✌️
You guys are awesome your first reaction was thinking you guys weren’t gonna go down this rabbit hole hi ren I think it was . But your in like Flynn lol. DIAZEPAM cool ass song check it out 😊
I know I'm hella late to this video, but I wanted to make a point. People don't realize that when you're misdiagnosed with a mental disorder, or the doctors give you an antidepressant to treat another condition, those drugs still affect the chemicals in your brain so, even if you weren't depressed before, your body has become accustomed to that medication so you can't just stop taking it. You have to wean yourself off of it, IF you can come off of it at all.
Hi guys ! I've been watching a lot of your videos from a different account and I had to log into this one to tell you that you're awesome. I'm having so much fun watching you discover all of Ren's music. I love seeing someone else be just as impressed by everything that he's done and everything that he's been through. I love you both so much! Thanks for all of the good vibes! ❤

I have lupus and Lyme.. took 8 years. It's exactly like he says it is.

We went to bed with the American dream, we woke up in Night-merica"
