Aww, Bradley is gonna be jazzed you stopped by.. gotta say, Chris, our Bradley has a rather discerning ear for sublime creative writing/lyrics and doesn't usually go full throttle Pikachu face for just anybody..not even for Ren, lol. It's just so cool that in our collective communities we seem to always find such lovely kindred spirits, people you will most likely never meet, but an instant kinship of sorts regarding all things musically pleasing is happily shared among us. The premiere was also my first introduction to you, and you most definitely are a keeper.. no worries, only on my playlist lol ×͜× જ⁀➴ -ˋˏ🌈ᥫ᭡
Dude, you are currently one of my favorite reactors. I like the fact that you and I won’t always agree. I respect your insight and intelligence. I also respect the fact that you have the patience to listen and to educate. It’s folks like you that make the world a better, less divisive place. You and Ren have that philosophy in common, as well. Keep posting the reactions, I’m in for the long haul. ❤
I watched the BTS too, thanks for the peek behind this gorgeous movie! I really hope that film reactors too here in YT will find this so that it will get that attention too. Thank you for using your creativity!
And even more than that. Because he has something for everyone, he opens people’s ears to stuff they would never have listened to if it hadn’t been for him. He’s like an enlightener!
Aww, reallyyyyy? That's high praise. :) I really appreciate that. I did my best and just lean in when I'm feeling something. I'm glad you liked it, Nora. :)
Personally, she took the words right out of my mouth... you're the first person I've seen react to Ren the way I do. You named off a list of the songs that.. have imprinted on my soul because he just has that effect. Thank you for the Ren rant. ❤❤❤ didn't know I needed that. 😅
@@TheBlackSpeed ... Thank you. I am, kinda speechless by your positivity. Everyone can use a dose of that. You've given that to me on a rough day. So, truly, thank you. Excuse me while I go down a rabbit hole of your content and you've got my support and good vibes right back at you. ✨️🥹
I am so fucking happy that you love this one! Rens lines about pot really got me when I first heard it because I use it everyday to numb my pain (both physical and emotional) and I've been thinking about quitting it lately. They were both fire on this one. You and Ren are a lot alike in that you're both beautiful human beings😊 Fun fact: Webbys dad did some of the guitar on this one
I’ve had other addictions, never drugs (I knew myself too well to EVER start that shit) so I do know how hard beating addiction is. I’ve also helped people through quitting pot. I hope you do it, I hope you quit. It won’t be easy, it won’t go smooth, but I hope you do it. I’m rooting for you.
I smoked weed everyday for 25 years. I cut down over the years. The last night time spliff was the hardest to let go of. To be honest I struggle with insomnia now, I thnk I did before, as started smoking a 15 I can’t remember. I also found that I had to learn to sit with uncomfortable emotions and how to deal and process situations and my emotional responses as I had just numbed myself to feeling and dealing with stress. I have since learnt that I am both ADHD and Autistic and have a very High IQ. Since stopping though I’ve become more creative, fearless and started a successful business. I also have way more money in my pocket! Good luck and be kind to yourself ❤
That's very kind of you and I know I always make jokes that him and I have a lot in common, but I actually feel like we do. More than most. So I'm glad you see that (even if it's that we're beautiful haha
This was honestly ur best reaction. I’m not just saying this. I really enjoyed your take. You’re such a dope guy. ❤You are authentically uniquely you every video whether we like your take or not. And I can’t say that about every reactor. They are so worried about losing a sub they will say anything not to piss of the fanbase. And you will never be that guy. I appreciate that about you. We will still fight if u diss my boy again but I’ll do it with much love and respect for u! 🥰
They worked so well together. It's a really powerful video and a great song. The director Frankie Fire has a short BTS on his channel if you wanted to see them making it.
Ren and Webby killed this! They sound so incredible together. Ren has a new track dropping on Thurs that should be incredible as well. Great reaction!! 💜💜
Ren and Webby sound so good together here. There seems to be a lot more moving parts not only in the video but the music. Webbys dad is playing the 12 string acoystic guitar.Ren is singing a F# ...way up there! They have mad respect for each other and Webby thinks Ren is the most musically talented person he knows. Hope i got that right. We need more.
I'm just now getting to know Webby, but I've heard several people reference his Raw Thoughts series. So far I've only heard Raw Thoughts 1, and it was fire! This video is amazing, and Webby and Ren are an amazing duo.
That beautiful lip curl you have when you recognize brilliance in a song by artists and this collaboration by Webby and Ren is a perfect example of amazing artistry, unique conception and videography and vocals! Congratulations to Ren and Webby! You are an amazing reactor btw❤
Fellow Mississippi boy here (Louisville), it took getting the hell out of that backwoods, backwards small town to get to see the world as beautiful, varied, and pretty wonderful. California was my path out (and maybe the Army). I wasn't my dad, but I needed to get my horizon's opened - people are cool, just got to invest time in getting to know them and get over yourself. Great channel man. You ever need a beer (or a coffee), I'm buyin.
Exactly, that's what is required. I always said if people traveled more, the world would be a better place. Traveling fixes so many things, just getting out of your own head and your own way. I agree completely. And that's really kind of you, thank you brother. I'ma take you up on that one day. And for sure beer, or bourbon ha.
That's such a mature outlook even with the way you word it. "It's my job to help them be less stupid...." Lmao! Man you have a way with words. Love your channel. Much ❤
Haha and I just be sayin' shit off the top of my head lol. I never plan any of this. I'm glad yall like it so much, and can find the humor along the wisdom too. Really appreciate you all taking the time to listen.
I was always called an old soul because I listened to people and always tried to see both sides of things. Was also raised by my great grandmother and grandfather so I had a lot of old school values, always opening doors and standing when a woman walks in the room ect, I put others before myself even when it was a determent to myself.... (Took me a long time to relearn not to do that.) Moving from the country to Chicago cured me of that pretty quickly. Back in the day people didn't take advantage of this near as much. Now most people would rather piss on you than help you out for five seconds. Thanks for the reaction, hope you are having a truly blessed day.... And if you can make people smarter.... We need you horribly bad right now lol.... Heck I'll take a few lessons myself 😂
It's a shame man, but I still try to be a light wherever I go. It's much harder than it used to be, but I'm always smarter than I was, so there's that. Thank you as always for the nice words man, I hope you're having a great day as well! And haha, I'ma keep doing my best! From what I gather, you're doing just fine. :)
The reason why you're one of the better guys to watch is that youre not a fan boy, youre true to you and don't bend for the comment section. Massive respect. Also just realised I've been watching you for a year and hadn't subbed!! Criminal.
Whaaaaat? Over a year and not subbed? That's blasphemy. :( Better late than never I suppose! Welcome, and I really do appreciate that. Here's to the long haul!
Looove your reaction man as always 😍 They're so good together !! But Ren ... Just amazing... 😘 An other collab, very old one, underrated, is "Jessica" ... Ren and Orlean... Wonderful mood in this one, Ren is so young 😂 but Orlean's voice... Velvet, smooth, phenomenal 😍 Hope to see you react to this one 🤞and please dont forget to check Insomnia and Life is funny 😉 Thanks 😘
I agree with you 💯 Ren's music isn't just for listening and enjoying, it's does much more. It makes you feel something and brings people together. It creates a space for us. I love that. Big love from Germany 💜💜💜
I adore your perspective on society. That kind of patience and empathy combined with access to educational resources is rare and I think it's an incredibly valuable service you are providing. Thank you for putting in the emotional energy to have those conversations when you can
Haha I loved your rant 😹 I truly think Ren has upped his game big time, especially with this collab. I agree - it’s my favorite collab overall, and that’s saying a lot. The song, the message, the vocals, the harmonies, the switch ups, the guitar parts, and then when you add in an unbelievable video … unreal. This needs to go viral. And Ren has a ton more on the way! There’s a really cool BTS for the video I believe on Frankie Fire’s page. It’s worth checking out. They filmed this on the day of the eclipse, when Ren spent a few days with Webby in Connecticut. They plan to do more together.
Lol what you meeeean? Are other people posting bad reactions, or are you saying one that I really love? Cause I have WAY more Ren reactions I love than the couple I don't. Lol so you can clarify if you'd like. :)
@@TheBlackSpeed I'm still laughing at your dislike of Illest of our Time. You then said you have only watched about 13 songs and I said you have about 210 to go:):). Does that clarify everything?
Nice react bro REN is my guy but Webby is also amazing, maybe a year ago I’m not sure exactly, REN introduced us to him by posting Webby’s “RAW THOUGHTS VI” on his YT community. Maybe that’s a good place to start to get to know him 🤷🏻♂️ Anyways, appreciate your time brother I hope you are well Take care Daz, Berrima, NSW, Australia
Love ya Blackspeed! 💙 💜. I saw you in the comments on Ren's post, so no need to let you know about it. 1 other thing, although illest is not in my top tracks of his, I promise that it is on many others. Just a reminder that if an artist knows how to write meaningful music it's going to be very subjective on what one likes. This is not about the Ren fans that love everything. So many on the RH Facebook group discuss what they like and what they don't. Everyone's list is different when it comes to his hiphop. The same with the reactors that I respect and choose to listen to. I think about this a lot (it's my analytical side of ADHD I guess 😂.) There are many that are honest and many that aren't as well and do stupid shit. I can't always tell which ones are like that, but I can tell the one's that are real when they detail what they like. Thanks for being a stand up guy. 💜💙💚❤️
This is a very kind and thoughtful comment and I appreciate it. :) I find myself always having to either defend my tastes (which I don't anymore really lol because I just don't care) and defending why someone SHOULD like something. And I enjoy that, the discussion is what makes me have a good time on RUclips and people should be more open to that. So I appreciate that validation and clarity, and glad you're of the same mind as that.
Hey i didnt know you were diagnosed too! I went through aggressive cancer at 25 while pregnant i totally get losing your health and relating to ren a bit. Glad to be a fan of him and you absolutely the very def of music being connecting ❤ much love stay clear
Aww, that made me smile. :) Thank you for saying that. And yep, stage IV hodgkin's lymphoma at 23. Crazy time. But here I am, talking to you and everyone.
On September 5th Ren is dropping a new video that is very very important for the reaction community to watch that day and promote. I’m not sure if u saw his video explaining what happened with Sick Boi but he is dropping a new song that is Angry Ren on the 5th. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE for him watch and react live if u can. If not live release it as soon as you can #KujoBeatDown
You need to check out Ren's Castles made of sand since you like anime. It uses a sample from the closing theme song from Samurai Champloo and Ren goes crazy!
@@Kenz300tt I meant to tell you thank you for that man, that's seriously really cool of you. I got it and confirmed. We will definitely get on that soon enough. Very cool of you, Kenz.
I felt the same way the first time I heard this. I look to hear it being reacted to everywhere! It's so damn good! Instant fan too. I love Ren being part of this as well. Genius!
12:17 These are my two favourite artists of today and Webby equally deserves the props for his work. He has been grinding and has been suffering his whole life with severe ADHD (hence the label/brand he has with EightyHD). Pleeeeease do some more reactions from him. You haven't seen anything yet. Best collab I could have ever wished for and believe me.....I begged them for years to do a collab and they delivered. They listen to their fans and thats respect enough in itself.
Brilliant reaction! This MV made me emotional too, the reasons ran round my mind, there were several, it definitely hit me emotionally. Yes, we are all members of society, wish more people recognised that pretty fucking obvious fact! It’s also why I lean into socialism, clue’s in the name, so it seems sensible that we should help others, human mycelium! Thank you for being you, you explain stuff well! And as Oscar Wilde said: Be yourself, everyone else is taken. Love from Annie, in Cornwall, UK🙂🌸
It’s so cool to see the impact this video has on you in such a short amount of time. 3:00 I’ve been absolutely obsessing over it and now I’m just excited to watch the rest of your reaction.
I’m about 3 minutes in and just want to send virtual hugs because this world is so messed up and we all need it to be better. Luv ya and feeling the same vibes (lol or well see by the end 😅)
BlackSpeed. Note how Ren layers two different sets of rap then at the end fast raps it out as one complete sentence. Not only does he rap amazing, but that technical difficulty is utterly insane.
This is an absolute fire track and the more you listen and watch it the better it gets, once you get the whole concept you notice more and more in the bars and the scenes in the vid 👌🏽👌🏽🤯🔥
I just wanted to thank you once more. I have had a horrible week and expect life to stay hard for the near future. I know things are going to get better, your video allowed me to escape my own hard day. I always appreciate you.
Awww.. That makes me sad, but also makes me happy I can bring you out of it even for a little while. We have more videos coming so stay tuned. It'll get better. It, usually, always does.
This song made me tear up and to be honest, when you were talking about your health struggles too. I feel you on that. I've not had cancer but I've broken my back twice and have an autoimmune disease so life is beautiful but also difficult. I love your fair analysis of musicians you listen to. NGL I'm a Renegade, but it's really refreshing to hear someone state their true opinion. You're respectful about it, whether you like or dislike the track, so I subbed. I wish you the best, my man, and I'll be popping in for your uploads.
I'm glad I could make you feel something, and that you were able to feel something with me. Sorry to hear about your own troubles. Makes us stronger as they say, right? Hey, I try to be. I'm glad you picked up on this. And that's awesome I can earn your sub, thank you for that. Comments like this always make my day. Hope to see you around in the comment section more often. :) Wishing you the best as well!
Death Parade. Been a while since I’ve spent time with anime, but that sounds amazing, ty for the rec! And yay, you liked the video lol! I thought it was emotional, too. Just…life is hard, and some “habits” make it harder and their blues/noir/western/wailing guitar vibe was right on that truth nerve for me, or something. Thanks for the reaction!
Dude!!!! Your adverbs are used correctly (Girly squeal)! The more I watch you, the more I like you! You and I have a whole lot in common! I also love to educate and have a hella lot of patience! I also love exclamation marks entirely too much! Ren is in my top 5 favorite artists in the soundtrack of my life! I am a 49 year old New York native and I am terribly weighted down by trauma. This song and video really make me think and I agree with you about the collaboration! You rock dude!
I really didn’t know what to expect with this…..and was pleasantly surprised…..Ren’s verse is 🔥🔥. The video really sets the mood and think it really complements the track 💜🔥
Webby and Ren are two of the most organically grown artists of our time. They have boycotted the greedy music industry and they have any real persons back. FULL STOP ⚫
First time to your channel you talk in the right direction that everyone should I just turned 60 and you and Ren and everyone who thinks like that shows me there is still hope out there . Thank you
Came here as a Ren fan, leaving as a new subscriber. Absolutely love your energy and everything you had to say. Looking forward to seeing your Chanel grow 🙂
TF YOU MEAN YOU DONT KNOW WEBBY? 😂😂😂😂 Well now ya do,whatcha gonna do about it??? Great react bro,just yanking ur chain 😂 love this channel and your person🎉✌️🕊️
I SAID WHAT I SAID, I'M LATE! I CAN'T KNOW EVERYONE DAMNNNNNN. And what am I going to do about it!?! BE A FAN! Haha. Appreciate you bro lol glad you're still around.
This def was a 🔥song and I always appreciate your honesty. Not everyone is going to like the same things. I mentioned in a comment on a previous one of your reactions that one of my favorite artists of all times has a ton of stuff he's done that I'm meh about. But the guy's an old grandfather of industrial/noise music, so 🤷♀. There's gonna be a lot of experimental stuff that just won't hit with everyone. Keep doing what you. We're here for it!! 💜
Absolutely LOVE your life philosophy! Is what I live by, as well, and I think that's true of many Renegades. This song is fantastic, and the video is phenomenal. Make sure you catch Ren's song premiering on Thursday 9/5!!
Webby is worth checking out for real! I love his track "Sandcastles" but I'm newer to Webby, and I'm sure others will have better options. Ren did his Ren thing, and knowing you're usually a 50/50 chance of loving him, I love your reactions!!!
That's what I hope people get from it, not just my discussions when I don't like something but also how absolutely animated I get when I love something lol.
You get an immediate like but not for the reaction (which is great), it's for the patience to teach others comments you made. I do this at work and people have told me they don't understand how I have the patience I show. It's nice to get that recognition
YES from me to everything you said. Concerning that collab thing though, I don't want to put different collabs on good-bad/fovourite-not favourite axis. Each collab brings out (and hopefully gives them too) different sides/nuances of both artists, and I find that interesting. I also believe that one of the deep riches we have as human beings (and artists) is that we can get to know and be creative with those sides and nuances. Those conversations you talked about can also be seen as such collabs, and I think that's why there's the hope for change in them. See you at the bar!
Haha for sure, I was just saying it in a simplistic way that for me, my favorite collaboration I've seen so far has been this. And I always say it in my humorous/jokey way. It's all good! People can like and say it proudly and that's okay!
I think it is possible to get a lot out of Ren's songs without having experienced a health battle, but let's face it, those of us who've been through it are always going to understand him on levels the able-bodied people who've always had perfect health won't get until they go there themselves. Which, if you live long enough, it is inevitable. In the meantime, I appreciate you having the patience to try and meet people where they are and change minds. That is a rare quality and one that is badly needed in our polarized world. So, kuddos for that. I was a teacher. A Kindergarten teacher. So I have the patience of the saint for learners. But since long COVID ribbed me of my health, I no longer have energy to waste on the willfully ignorant. I still find myself taking cracks at educating strangers when the opportunity arises, but I down tools immediately when I encounter a closed mind. I'll be watching for the next Ren reactions. In the meantime, remember nothing will ever be worth your health or your peace.
Thank you for those words, I really do appreciate it. And I can understand why you wouldn't have the patience for it, I damn near don't at this point. There are some people I just literally move on from, because there isn't a willingness to learn at all. But I don't know, call me a glutton for punishment, I'm still doing my best out here as I'm able to. But won't ever choose educating a stranger over my own sanity. Also props to you for being a teacher, I have an immense respect for you and your profession. Not everyone can do it.
Well, I didn't get a notification even tho I have them on, so I'm watching now! 😁 Chris has mad bangers! Thunder, Rearview, Sandbox, FSU feat Ekoh, Friend like me, Faded with a stranger, Murder on my mind, Oh boy feat Busta Rhymes, We up feat DMX, Best out feat Krizz Kalico, GOTTI, Daydream, They dont know feat Jelly Roll, & Raw thoughts 1-6 are just a handful of my favorites! Also, I would love it if u could boost the volume on the video...I always find myself trying to turn it up, only to realize its all the way up on my end....I roll around with 2 12 inch subs in my car tho too, so maybe I'm just half deaf! 😆🤷♀️
RUclips is so infuriating and annoying sometimes. But glad you made it here anyway. :) I'll start my deep dive on him at some point haha. I think you've BLOWN THEM EAR DRUMS haha but I can definitely bump it several decibels and see if it's on my end. :) No worries!
Cool reaction. Thanks for your honesty. Thanks for the Anime rec. Also, Ren’s put out a song addressing the whole Kujo Sick Boi situation, and it’s called Kujo Beat Down 9/5/24. Please join the in. 💜😊💜
Welcome to the vibes, cheers bro 🫡🕸
Hello webby ✌️Nice vibes 🎉🔥
This is so good. It's top quality all around! As good or better than everything mainstream, so it should be on my radio and TV! 💞🐷
First time I've heard you man, song is fire and I'll definitely be looking at more of your stuff!

Webby just announced he will white list all reaction from here on out. He credits Ren and his team for this decision.
Nice, finally the way publicity should be, from the people for the people. What we choose not some fat predator with fat pockets in a plush office
What is white list?
@mstewart109 It mean reactors can now monetize their reactions to his music.. He is letting them get paid.
@mstewatort109 it allows people to get paid to react to his music and not to get copy righted for using it to react to
Dude, you are currently one of my favorite reactors. I like the fact that you and I won’t always agree. I respect your insight and intelligence. I also respect the fact that you have the patience to listen and to educate. It’s folks like you that make the world a better, less divisive place.

Props to JP on Da Track for the fire production! Papa Wb killed it with the guitar riff.
This song was like a ladder in a hole I put myself in with drug use. It really helped me open my eyes to see I have a problem.
Glad you found the ladder. If you start to slip off the steps, reach out. Sometimes it takes a little help, if you want it, but you're ok your way. 🖤
Thanks man appreciate the kind words 🎥🎥🔥🔥
The video is absolutely brilliant! One of the best I’ve seen. Beautiful cinematography 👏🏻
I watched the BTS too, thanks for the peek behind this gorgeous movie! I really hope that film reactors too here in YT will find this so that it will get that attention too. Thank you for using your creativity!
@frankiefire can you help settle a debate? What does the man say to the girl with the phone when he stops her from making a call?
@@MicheleRaeF don't waste your time
@@frankiefire thank you
Great reaction. The best thing about Ren is that he has something for everyone. This is why his fan base is so diverse. Can't wait to see more.
Yes!!
🔥
And even more than that. Because he has something for everyone, he opens people’s ears to stuff they would never have listened to if it hadn’t been for him. He’s like an enlightener!
Also - I hope to see you at the Kujo Beat Down premiere on Thursday!
Oh, oh I'ma be there. And probably recording it myself so I don't know if I'll be chatting much, but I'll be there. :)
Ok. I’m not done yet. But this might be my favorite reaction to this song so far. ♥️😂🔥

I was always called an old soul because I listened to people and always tried to see both sides of things. Was also raised by my great grandmother and grandfather so I had a lot of old school values, always opening doors and standing when a woman walks in the room ect, I put others before myself even when it was a determent to myself.... (Took me a long time to relearn not to do that.) Moving from the country to Chicago cured me of that pretty quickly. Back in the day people didn't take advantage of this near as much. Now most people would rather piss on you than help you out for five seconds. Thanks for the reaction, hope you are having a truly blessed day.... And if you can make people smarter.... We need you horribly bad right now lol.... Heck I'll take a few lessons myself 😂
It's a shame man, but I still try to be a light wherever I go. It's much harder than it used to be, but I'm always smarter than I was, so there's that. Thank you as always for the nice words man, I hope you're having a great day as well!
And haha, I'ma keep doing my best! From what I gather, you're doing just fine. :)
I keep learning about new artists through Ren, that I hadn't previously heard. Also, YES, about this type of rap from Ren!!!
The reason why you're one of the better guys to watch is that youre not a fan boy, youre true to you and don't bend for the comment section. Massive respect. Also just realised I've been watching you for a year and hadn't subbed!! Criminal.
Whaaaaat? Over a year and not subbed? That's blasphemy. :( Better late than never I suppose! Welcome, and I really do appreciate that. Here's to the long haul!
Looove your reaction man as always 😍 They're so good together !! But Ren ... Just amazing... 😘 An other collab, very old one, underrated, is "Jessica" ... Ren and Orlean... Wonderful mood in this one, Ren is so young 😂 but Orlean's voice... Velvet, smooth, phenomenal 😍 Hope to see you react to this one 🤞and please dont forget to check Insomnia and Life is funny 😉 Thanks 😘
Ren just kicked in and i seen the smirk 😁😁 lol as always cheers from Northern Ireland 🍀🍻🍀🍻🍀
Ayeee just came back from Ireland haha! Thank you. :) Glad you liked the video!
@@TheBlackSpeed With your sense of humour I've no doubt you enjoyed Ireland 😂😂🍀🍻🍀🍻
@@scottywalknroll Lol Ireland is fire. I think I like Europeans more than Americans lol. I haven't decided yet.
@@TheBlackSpeed I have that same debate between humans and animals 🤣🤣
@@TheBlackSpeed If your looking anything new to react to pls check out Lukas Graham 🙏🙏 been around a long time but 💯 worth the watch 🍻🍀🍻🍀
I agree with you 💯 Ren's music isn't just for listening and enjoying, it's does much more. It makes you feel something and brings people together. It creates a space for us. I love that. Big love from Germany 💜💜💜
I adore your perspective on society. That kind of patience and empathy combined with access to educational resources is rare and I think it's an incredibly valuable service you are providing. Thank you for putting in the emotional energy to have those conversations when you can
I do my best, even if a lot of times it doesn't feel like enough. Thank you for calling it out and appreciating it. :) That makes me happy.

These are all good Chris Webby songs
Thank you... I'm a new Webby fan..❤
Haha I loved your rant 😹 I truly think Ren has upped his game big time, especially with this collab. I agree - it’s my favorite collab overall, and that’s saying a lot. The song, the message, the vocals, the harmonies, the switch ups, the guitar parts, and then when you add in an unbelievable video … unreal. This needs to go viral. And Ren has a ton more on the way!
There’s a really cool BTS for the video I believe on Frankie Fire’s page. It’s worth checking out. They filmed this on the day of the eclipse, when Ren spent a few days with Webby in Connecticut. They plan to do more together.
Finally a good reaction to Ren lol.. This song with Chris and Ren is so deep and wonderful. You only have about 210 Ren songs to go. Great video
Lol what you meeeean? Are other people posting bad reactions, or are you saying one that I really love? Cause I have WAY more Ren reactions I love than the couple I don't. Lol so you can clarify if you'd like. :)
@@TheBlackSpeed I'm still laughing at your dislike of Illest of our Time. You then said you have only watched about 13 songs and I said you have about 210 to go:):). Does that clarify everything?
Also, everyone is posting great reactions to Baggage.
@@SandraP3796 Oh lol. Yeah that opinion isn't changing, that's fine haha.
@@SandraP3796 Baggage is fire, that's why. :D
Super dope ! I can put you on to webby! Check out Raw thoughts 1-6 and his track with Jon connor & snow tha product - you don't really want it first ❤
I can always count on you haha. Thanks, Jenn.
Nice react bro
REN is my guy but Webby is also amazing, maybe a year ago I’m not sure exactly, REN introduced us to him by posting Webby’s “RAW THOUGHTS VI” on his YT community. Maybe that’s a good place to start to get to know him 🤷🏻♂️
Anyways, appreciate your time brother
I hope you are well
Take care
Daz, Berrima, NSW, Australia
Love ya Blackspeed! 💙 💜. I saw you in the comments on Ren's post, so no need to let you know about it. 1 other thing, although illest is not in my top tracks of his, I promise that it is on many others. Just a reminder that if an artist knows how to write meaningful music it's going to be very subjective on what one likes. This is not about the Ren fans that love everything. So many on the RH Facebook group discuss what they like and what they don't. Everyone's list is different when it comes to his hiphop. The same with the reactors that I respect and choose to listen to. I think about this a lot (it's my analytical side of ADHD I guess 😂.) There are many that are honest and many that aren't as well and do stupid shit. I can't always tell which ones are like that, but I can tell the one's that are real when they detail what they like. Thanks for being a stand up guy. 💜💙💚❤️
True, God life would be dull if we all shared the same tastes and preferences.
This is a very kind and thoughtful comment and I appreciate it. :) I find myself always having to either defend my tastes (which I don't anymore really lol because I just don't care) and defending why someone SHOULD like something. And I enjoy that, the discussion is what makes me have a good time on RUclips and people should be more open to that. So I appreciate that validation and clarity, and glad you're of the same mind as that.
Your passion for music is contagious. Love your reaction.
I don't have many people who call out my passion for music, and I really appreciate that. Thank you. :)
Hey i didnt know you were diagnosed too! I went through aggressive cancer at 25 while pregnant i totally get losing your health and relating to ren a bit. Glad to be a fan of him and you absolutely the very def of music being connecting ❤ much love stay clear
Aww, that made me smile. :) Thank you for saying that. And yep, stage IV hodgkin's lymphoma at 23. Crazy time. But here I am, talking to you and everyone.
@@TheBlackSpeed thankful that you made it through!!! Keep on keepin on. 👍
On September 5th Ren is dropping a new video that is very very important for the reaction community to watch that day and promote. I’m not sure if u saw his video explaining what happened with Sick Boi but he is dropping a new song that is Angry Ren on the 5th. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE for him watch and react live if u can. If not live release it as soon as you can #KujoBeatDown
This ☝️💯 Our Boi has been through hell and back.
Yup, I'm already on board and ready to go!
I can listen to this over and over. Love this song! Great reaction. 🌸🌸🌸
Every ren collab is fire! This is easily the best video for one yet though.
You need to check out Ren's Castles made of sand since you like anime. It uses a sample from the closing theme song from Samurai Champloo and Ren goes crazy!
I'll donate the $ for the Bandcamp album download if necessary
Wait it uses Samurai Champloo!!?? That's my ish. Oh, oh I gotta bump that up now.
Haha that's really kind of you. Hey I'll always take the donations if you want me to fast track something. :)
@@TheBlackSpeed sent it to ya brother. Also joined your channel. Looking forward to hearing your honest opinion and seeing how you like it!
@@Kenz300tt I meant to tell you thank you for that man, that's seriously really cool of you. I got it and confirmed. We will definitely get on that soon enough. Very cool of you, Kenz.
PATIENCE!!!! A skill that not many people have!
I was coming to say if you rag on my Boi Ren for slow rapping we gonna be fighting!!! 😂Me and you. Till the death! *FINISH HIM*…
Lmao hey, were you happily, pleasantly surprised!? I loved it! No need to THROW HANDS.
Very happy and pleasantly surprised!!!!!! No hands will be thrown. Today!!!! 😂😂
I felt the same way the first time I heard this. I look to hear it being reacted to everywhere! It's so damn good! Instant fan too. I love Ren being part of this as well. Genius!
12:17 These are my two favourite artists of today and Webby equally deserves the props for his work. He has been grinding and has been suffering his whole life with severe ADHD (hence the label/brand he has with EightyHD). Pleeeeease do some more reactions from him. You haven't seen anything yet. Best collab I could have ever wished for and believe me.....I begged them for years to do a collab and they delivered. They listen to their fans and thats respect enough in itself.
LOVE this reaction! Always good to see someone who is as taken by a song as I am. This one is something really special.
Brilliant reaction! This MV made me emotional too, the reasons ran round my mind, there were several, it definitely hit me emotionally. Yes, we are all members of society, wish more people recognised that pretty fucking obvious fact! It’s also why I lean into socialism, clue’s in the name, so it seems sensible that we should help others, human mycelium! Thank you for being you, you explain stuff well! And as Oscar Wilde said: Be yourself, everyone else is taken. Love from Annie, in Cornwall, UK🙂🌸
“Are you gatekeeping knowledge” I felt that 😂
It’s so cool to see the impact this video has on you in such a short amount of time. 3:00 I’ve been absolutely obsessing over it and now I’m just excited to watch the rest of your reaction.
I hope the rest of the reaction did it just as much justice. :)
I’m about 3 minutes in and just want to send virtual hugs because this world is so messed up and we all need it to be better. Luv ya and feeling the same vibes (lol or well see by the end 😅)
Yep confirming we are feeling the same about this and it needs to blow up 🔥
Haha see??? I knew we'd be on the same page. :) Have faith in me!!!! Haha.
❤
BlackSpeed. Note how Ren layers two different sets of rap then at the end fast raps it out as one complete sentence. Not only does he rap amazing, but that technical difficulty is utterly insane.
The man has technicality and range, I've always given him that, for sure.
PREACH BRO!!! I feel everything you said. Let's walk this life together instead of separately.
100% correct, it shouldn't be this difficult.
The stills from this video shoot are stunning. Enjoyed watching you enjoy this one 🪩🤍🪩
🔥🔥
This is an absolute fire track and the more you listen and watch it the better it gets, once you get the whole concept you notice more and more in the bars and the scenes in the vid 👌🏽👌🏽🤯🔥
Love this reaction, mate! So much fun! Thanks for always showing Ren so much love. He deserves it. 😉❤️✌️💯
Great reaction ❤
Knowing and expanding perspectives ❤
I just wanted to thank you once more. I have had a horrible week and expect life to stay hard for the near future. I know things are going to get better, your video allowed me to escape my own hard day. I always appreciate you.
Awww.. That makes me sad, but also makes me happy I can bring you out of it even for a little while. We have more videos coming so stay tuned. It'll get better. It, usually, always does.
I absolutely love your mindset and attitude- anyone who calls Ren ‘our boy’ has my backing 100%❤
I'm glad you can agree with me. :) And haha, I would absolutely call him my boy at this point!
#ren #chriswebby 🩷🕸️🖤
Amazing song, amazing video, amazing concept 👌💗👌
Amazing reaction also 🔥
Yay! Thanks for that patience to meet people where they're at, and also, I'm sorry it's been necessary
This song made me tear up and to be honest, when you were talking about your health struggles too. I feel you on that. I've not had cancer but I've broken my back twice and have an autoimmune disease so life is beautiful but also difficult.
I love your fair analysis of musicians you listen to. NGL I'm a Renegade, but it's really refreshing to hear someone state their true opinion. You're respectful about it, whether you like or dislike the track, so I subbed. I wish you the best, my man, and I'll be popping in for your uploads.
I'm glad I could make you feel something, and that you were able to feel something with me. Sorry to hear about your own troubles. Makes us stronger as they say, right?
Hey, I try to be. I'm glad you picked up on this. And that's awesome I can earn your sub, thank you for that. Comments like this always make my day. Hope to see you around in the comment section more often. :) Wishing you the best as well!
Death Parade. Been a while since I’ve spent time with anime, but that sounds amazing, ty for the rec! And yay, you liked the video lol! I thought it was emotional, too. Just…life is hard, and some “habits” make it harder and their blues/noir/western/wailing guitar vibe was right on that truth nerve for me, or something. Thanks for the reaction!
Absolutely! And if you check it out, definitely let me know your thoughts. :) You're very welcome, thanks for taking the time to listen.
I appreciate that you provide honest reactions every time! Thank you! This was one of my favorites too!
Since you asked: Chris Webby (short for Christian Webster)...originally Steve Burns of Blues Clues..good guy...talented musician/rapper.
Lmao wait what? Tell me why I actually almost believe you at first.
Dude!!!! Your adverbs are used correctly (Girly squeal)! The more I watch you, the more I like you! You and I have a whole lot in common! I also love to educate and have a hella lot of patience! I also love exclamation marks entirely too much! Ren is in my top 5 favorite artists in the soundtrack of my life! I am a 49 year old New York native and I am terribly weighted down by trauma. This song and video really make me think and I agree with you about the collaboration! You rock dude!
I really didn’t know what to expect with this…..and was pleasantly surprised…..Ren’s verse is 🔥🔥.
The video really sets the mood and think it really complements the track 💜🔥
You're gonna love some of his busking sessions when he's singing live. I can't wait for you to hear those.🎉
Webby and Ren are two of the most organically grown artists of our time. They have boycotted the greedy music industry and they have any real persons back. FULL STOP ⚫
First time to your channel you talk in the right direction that everyone should I just turned 60 and you and Ren and everyone who thinks like that shows me there is still hope out there . Thank you
Glad you could find me and glad you liked the video. And absolutely, we're still around haha.
I’ve been rocking with Webby almost 10 years so you have a hell of a rabbit hole for that one
Great reaction! Ren’s honing his skills for sure.
Came here as a Ren fan, leaving as a new subscriber. Absolutely love your energy and everything you had to say. Looking forward to seeing your Chanel grow 🙂
That made me smile ha. I love I could earn your sub, thank you for that. :) And I certainly hope so, that's nice of you!
TF YOU MEAN YOU DONT KNOW WEBBY? 😂😂😂😂 Well now ya do,whatcha gonna do about it??? Great react bro,just yanking ur chain 😂 love this channel and your person🎉✌️🕊️
😂 Bagg it .. this is a banger 💥 its da cool
I SAID WHAT I SAID, I'M LATE! I CAN'T KNOW EVERYONE DAMNNNNNN. And what am I going to do about it!?! BE A FAN! Haha. Appreciate you bro lol glad you're still around.
@@TheBlackSpeed hell yeah, I've found new stuff through you too,like that Australian feller. I dove into his stuff n subbed to him. Thx
This def was a 🔥song and I always appreciate your honesty. Not everyone is going to like the same things. I mentioned in a comment on a previous one of your reactions that one of my favorite artists of all times has a ton of stuff he's done that I'm meh about. But the guy's an old grandfather of industrial/noise music, so 🤷♀. There's gonna be a lot of experimental stuff that just won't hit with everyone. Keep doing what you. We're here for it!! 💜
Absolutely LOVE your life philosophy! Is what I live by, as well, and I think that's true of many Renegades.
This song is fantastic, and the video is phenomenal.
Make sure you catch Ren's song premiering on Thursday 9/5!!
Oh I'ma be there, see you there Thursday! And thanks for the words, glad you were feelin' it!
Definitely worth going down the Webby rabbit hole, I'd recommend Tasmanian Devil, Bowser, Kratos, or Outside the Box
Oooo video game titles. I dig that.
Thank you!🫶🏻
One huge Baggage of Art! Chris, Ren and FrankyFire (Videographer) went Nuts on this one =)
Another awesome reaction, thank you Sir, loved it 🙏🐊❤️🦉👍
I just stumbled across you. I'm at 4.53 and I can tell you that I am so happy that you and I are on this planet together! You are amazing!
Haha aww, thank you for that. That's very kind of you to say. :) And I'm happy you found your way to my little neck of RUclips. :)
That note Ren hits at 7:26 - 7:30 🔥
Webby is worth checking out for real! I love his track "Sandcastles" but I'm newer to Webby, and I'm sure others will have better options. Ren did his Ren thing, and knowing you're usually a 50/50 chance of loving him, I love your reactions!!!
Haha hey I think it's more 75/25 if anything. I like his songs way more than I don't. But I get what you mean. :)
You are one of my favorite reactors because of....well, everything you said in this reaction. All of it. Every syllable. I completely agree.
Aw haha. Thank you. Yall are too kind to me in this comment section and I really do appreciate it.
Make U less dumb!!!, Preach!!! Love this reaction!!!
Very discerning ear; your honesty when you don’t love something makes you more credible. Plus it helps jack up the joy when you “all out” love a song.
That's what I hope people get from it, not just my discussions when I don't like something but also how absolutely animated I get when I love something lol.
Thought you'd like this one. Love your reactions because I know you're genuine
You get an immediate like but not for the reaction (which is great), it's for the patience to teach others comments you made. I do this at work and people have told me they don't understand how I have the patience I show. It's nice to get that recognition
We're just gluttons for punishment I guess, because damn lol. But I appreciate that, and glad I could earn that respect.
Whoop whoop I love it when a reaction matches my feeling’s exactly your enthusiasm is infectious ❤❤
Why thank you.
YES from me to everything you said. Concerning that collab thing though, I don't want to put different collabs on good-bad/fovourite-not favourite axis. Each collab brings out (and hopefully gives them too) different sides/nuances of both artists, and I find that interesting. I also believe that one of the deep riches we have as human beings (and artists) is that we can get to know and be creative with those sides and nuances. Those conversations you talked about can also be seen as such collabs, and I think that's why there's the hope for change in them.
See you at the bar!
And P.S. I too love this collab and everything in this. :)
Haha for sure, I was just saying it in a simplistic way that for me, my favorite collaboration I've seen so far has been this. And I always say it in my humorous/jokey way. It's all good! People can like and say it proudly and that's okay!
your intelligence makes me love you more every time i watch your reactions. i love it when you keep it real brother.
Haha why thank you, I really do appreciate it. :)
I think it is possible to get a lot out of Ren's songs without having experienced a health battle, but let's face it, those of us who've been through it are always going to understand him on levels the able-bodied people who've always had perfect health won't get until they go there themselves. Which, if you live long enough, it is inevitable. In the meantime, I appreciate you having the patience to try and meet people where they are and change minds. That is a rare quality and one that is badly needed in our polarized world. So, kuddos for that. I was a teacher. A Kindergarten teacher. So I have the patience of the saint for learners. But since long COVID ribbed me of my health, I no longer have energy to waste on the willfully ignorant. I still find myself taking cracks at educating strangers when the opportunity arises, but I down tools immediately when I encounter a closed mind. I'll be watching for the next Ren reactions. In the meantime, remember nothing will ever be worth your health or your peace.
Thank you for those words, I really do appreciate it. And I can understand why you wouldn't have the patience for it, I damn near don't at this point. There are some people I just literally move on from, because there isn't a willingness to learn at all. But I don't know, call me a glutton for punishment, I'm still doing my best out here as I'm able to. But won't ever choose educating a stranger over my own sanity.
Also props to you for being a teacher, I have an immense respect for you and your profession. Not everyone can do it.
I appreciate you!! Thanks for the reaction and a bit of insight about you. I love your moniker, the Black Speed.
Haha it's a fun story on how I got that name, I'll share it some time. :)
The rant 😂
Always appreciate you ❤
Well, I didn't get a notification even tho I have them on, so I'm watching now! 😁 Chris has mad bangers! Thunder, Rearview, Sandbox, FSU feat Ekoh, Friend like me, Faded with a stranger, Murder on my mind, Oh boy feat Busta Rhymes, We up feat DMX, Best out feat Krizz Kalico, GOTTI, Daydream, They dont know feat Jelly Roll, & Raw thoughts 1-6 are just a handful of my favorites! Also, I would love it if u could boost the volume on the video...I always find myself trying to turn it up, only to realize its all the way up on my end....I roll around with 2 12 inch subs in my car tho too, so maybe I'm just half deaf! 😆🤷♀️
RUclips is so infuriating and annoying sometimes. But glad you made it here anyway. :) I'll start my deep dive on him at some point haha. I think you've BLOWN THEM EAR DRUMS haha but I can definitely bump it several decibels and see if it's on my end. :) No worries!
Webby is really a dope artist. He's been my most listen to rapper for a while now. "Sandbox" is his recent banger 🔥
A most excellent reaction! This video is a flippin' masterpiece.
Cool reaction. Thanks for your honesty. Thanks for the Anime rec. Also, Ren’s put out a song addressing the whole Kujo Sick Boi situation, and it’s called Kujo Beat Down 9/5/24. Please join the in. 💜😊💜
Oh yeah, I'm definitely going to be there, I have to!
Perfection x2…❤️🔥🔥💃
🤍🪽🏴
"There ain't no me with my same old baggage in closet"
That hits me, thats deep.
I love your life philosophy...you keep educating!!!! This song is def Fire🔥🔥🔥
I'm definitely going to do my best! :)
