Ren was bitten by a tick & contracted Lyme's disease at 19. Lyme's attacks every part of the body, including the brain. He was misdiagnosed for 8 yrs. While Lyme's ravaged his body, he was told that it was all in his head or that he was a hypochondriac. He was given all kinds of medications that either didn't help or made him worse. The pig will reappear in other videos. To Ren, the pig represents greed & it also represents his illness. Even on his best days, he still has pain. Because his symptoms are always there, he says it's almost like an uncomfortable companion that's always there.
Keeping an eye out ... don't worry too much about negative comments, unfortunately every reactor gets them. There's always something other people think you should have done differently or not said ! A comment is a comment as far as the RUclips algorhythm is concerned and ironically they can help get your reactions promoted in peoples' feeds. Great track this one.
@@michaeljeralo A lot easier said than done tbf ! it's human nature to focus on 1 negative alongside 99 positives. Just part of the "adjustment process" ! 🤔
I filter my tap water through a countertop filter jug. The filters are plastic but one lasts a month, seems better than single use plastic bottles. Thanks for your reaction.
Just to be clear. The medical system really let Ren down by insisting his illness was in his head, but he is pushing bpundaries looking for alternatives or treatments that will help him. He takes almost 100 pills a day to stay functioning abd still had a serious relapse because he still has Lyme and autoimmunity plys several other conditions due to the delay in proper treatment. He is also allergic to almost everything, so needs to take many supplements. One antibiotic he takes is $950 per month. He has issues with big pharma..
Yeah, I get it .. it's a Krayzie story for sure. Thanks for commenting.. I didn't know he took that many pills though.. sad the way the system for treatment is .. and it's ability to treat people properly.. or should I say not treat people properly
@@belindamelville2270 just to clarify, Bad Wolf is the suggestor of this video of this video by Ren. A lot of RENegades run into each other in comments and know each other's name from other communities so I was shouting him out. FTW= For The Win 🫶
The dispute with RUclips was due to a problem with the beat. Ren paid for an unlimited license through Beat Stars from a producer named Kujobeats. Kujobeats used an unlicensed sample of the Bulgarian Choir who came after Sick Boi for using the sample (I am not sure if they came after Ren or Kujobeats). There was a lot of back and forth (Ren has a video called, 'Why Sick Boi is off all all streaming platforms') and off RUclips. Sick Boi had been used as leverage by Kujobeats to force Ren to make concessions by issuing a copyright strike and taking the video off RUclips. I was after Ren took the video off all platforms that the meeting with the CEO of RUclips took place which allowed Sick Boi to return to RUclips and you were able to react to it. If you ever get to react to Kujo Beat Down, please watch the 'Why Sick Boi is off...' video first for the full context.
@@michaeljeraloThis explanation kind of mixes up the RUclips *video* and the *audio* in a lot of ways... but as long as you intend to watch Ren's video with the full explanation I won't bother much. The dispute was over the *song* though and Ren pulled the *audio* off all platforms, himself, to kneecap Kujo. It's still down to this day. Kujo claimed a copyright violation against the *video* and got it struck as leverage in the *song* negotiations. Ren talked with the CEO of RUclips who agreed it was a false claim and reinstated the *video*.
@perfectkismet I'm gonna watch the explanation video and listen to the kujo song tomorrow, so look for it to be up the next day. I didn't think I'd be getting into some Ren beef lol.. I almost hate saying I liked the beat now lol Krayzie stuff
You will find a strong commitment to social consciousness in all of Ren's music. He believes that we should be practicing mediation between people instead if polarization, and fostering balance and homeostasis with the earth. He will always turn the mirror on ourselves to see how we contribute to the problem . Rather than "they" are doung such and such, "we" are allowing this to happen. To use your water bottle example, Walmart might be following the dictates of greed in their production policies, but we are buying the cases of water. By using refillable containers, we help undermine the greed. Our actions have an effect on the earth.
@francesdoll4039 I see.. and if anyone knows anything about me I like that kind of music. I drew the same conclusion in the reaction if you noticed. . . It's true, if we don't by it, they don't produce it.. we gotta do better. Nice comment friend
He was signed by Sony at the time he was getting sick originally. The contract ran out because he couldn't recover enough to do live shows and recording work so they released him from it. By the time he recovered sufficiently, he realized he didn't actually need a label - and could keep control of creativity / earn the same from way lower sales and streams if he leveraged the traction he'd built up going viral on RUclips and TikTok.
Good reaction. Ren is beyond amazing. Enjoyed your commentary too Please watch Fred Again Mashup. Also watch Ren with the band he’s in called The Big Push. They are fantastic
I agreed with some of the things you said but not everything. That's ok. We have to stop demonizing each other for having different beliefs. In the end there is no reason to think other people are messing up the country.
@@ketchum.micole yeah I'm just not into extreme anything .. I'm not with either side.. both just a different form of control. . . My dream is an election where no one shows up to the polls.. or we just clean house with career criminals.. I mean politicians lol.. I'm tired of seeing families fighting over this stuff. But really it doesn't effect my house hold too much, I try to keep it under an umbrella of protection from it. I just like that Ren does music that brings about this kind of conversation and I salute you for talking instead of attacking, that's usually not how it happens anymore. Great comment and I hope you have a great week!!!
Might be a good time to watch why Sick Boi was taken down then watch Kojo Beat Down while Hi REN and Sick Boi are fresh in your mind
@@sdkdmd9072 🤔... Ok, bet.. what's the name of the video that explains why sick boi was taken down?
@@michaeljeralowhy sick boi is off all streaming platforms

Ren will never sign with a record company. He needs absolute creative freedom in order to create his art. 😉❤️
Im glad to hear it too

Just do you. I am kind of curious about Plan B because Ren mentions them in Hi Ren. Could you do something by them?
I didn't realize he was talking about an artist when he said that. I definitely could, do you have a particular song that you think I should do?
@@michaeljeralo I don't know them either. I might have to research.
@@michaeljeralo She said seems to have the most views here on youtube.
Bet, consider it done.. just give me some time.. the list is outrageously long
