      It's kinda nuts watching someone encounter Hi Ren at this stage of things. You think he's impressive in Hi Ren? Oh, he is... but you've seen maybe 10% of what he can do. He defies genres at the same time he pays homage to them. He raps but he also sings and plays a variety of instruments all while he performs as if on stage. Oh, and he makes his own beats, beatboxes, produces his own music, and plans most of his music videos. And he blends those talents together into something far greater than the sum of its parts. His rap flows and lyricism blends into his singing and vice versa. I've seen him do Bob Marley, Ozzy, Zack de la Rocha, David Bowie, and James Brown and do them each justice while adding his own element to it. Welcome to the rabbit hole, it's one hell of a ride!
      Oh, and along the way you'll get to see the people he hangs out with who are amazingly talented in their own right. Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, The Big Push, Eden Nash, and the list keeps going on. I'm 54 and it feels like I've rediscovered music again.

    Ren is the Original "Bardcore Genre Bender" The Master Bard himself ( Shakespeare ) would have understood exactly where Ren was coming from. Ren isn't just a songwriter but rather a Performance Art Master who blends music and character acting from all the styles over the last 500 years and makes it modern and relatable to all generations even if normally you may not be a fan of whatever genre he is currently performing. While most good Performers can envoke some emotions in their audience, Ren is an Emotion Master who has control of all of them, From the Feel Good Vibes of Bongo Bong, to the Rebellion of Illist Of Our Time, to the Tragedy of Jenny and Screech, to the Mind Bending Rap Flow of Losing It, and the Internal Psych War of Hi Ren, Ren has it All! The Ren Rabbit Hole is Deep and Powerful! Get Ready for the Ride of your Life!

    • @sootikins
      @sootikins 11 месяцев назад +6

      Another cool technical thing is that the final chord before he takes off his guitar does not resolve the progression. It kinda leaves the listener hanging, a bit like pulling out to early. The tension created keeps you watching instead of clicking off thinking it's over, so you don't miss the final speech.
      Those diminished triads, strummed going up then arpeggiated going back down are indeed demonic. Legit chords but not "nice" chords.

    This was a live recording.
    I try to warn all reactors new to Ren, do NOT react to "Violet's Tale" as a standalone video. It's available by itself as one of his newer videos, but it's actually the third part of a trilogy. The three full length videos are stitched end-to-end as a single video called "The Tale of Jenny & Screech" (which includes "Violet's Tale" although it's not in the title. The trilogy is in a style that's been dubbed "Bard core" because it's very Shakespearian and Ren is a modern bard. All three videos are also live, continuous shot recordings.
    Ren doesn't really fit a single genre. He tried to make his latest album, "Sick Boi" a cohesive hip-hop album, so a lot of his recent songs/videos fit that genre, but he's also a great singer, song writer, and multi-instrumentalist.

      One might well make such an assertion after only listening to 15 - 20 of his songs, but I'm struggling to think of even one that I wouldn't consider 'legit good' (even my least favourites among his songs are arguably 'legit good', and keep sneakily growing on me)
      No having a go at all, and I claim no special insight or authority, but reading '15 to 20 legit good songs' just wasn't something I could scroll past blithely.

But there are a couple misses IMO. But again that’s with anyone. Put in baseball ⚾️ terms the guys batting like 775 lol. That’s best to ever play the game status lol. So I’m not knocking him.

      I hear you 100%.

I do agree, not every song totally hits the mark, and I can always find some technical fault with his live playing and intonation (occupational hazard) but that's never gotten in the way of enjoying a superb performance. @@Dad-JanieWorld

    Here is some additional information on Ren's story that I gathered from old newspaper interviews, articles, and Ren's public livestreams and posts. A handful of people frequently post an earlier version of my comment to various reactions that they copied and pasted verbatim, so if this is a repeat just ignore this comment. I keep editing the information, as needed, and have removed details about Ren that some found to be too personal, such as his full name and D.O.B. All the information here was gathered exclusively from sources Ren personally approved for public release.
    Ren is a British musician/independent artist/producer, self-taught multi-instrumentalist; originally from Wales. Ren pursued a career in music from an early age. In 2009, while studying music performance at Bath Spa University, Ren began to experience health issues and was struggling to attend his lectures, which eventually caused him to discontinue his studies and return home. In addition, Ren was signed by Sony Records in 2010 and was working on an album when his health deteriorated to the point that he was unable to go on; consequently, his contract with Sony was dissolved. Ren would later relocate to Brighton.
    Ren's illness often kept him in bed for up to 23 hours daily. Ren was initially misdiagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, and chronic fatigue syndrome, which led him to experience psychosis and develop PTSD. It would take seven years before a doctor in Belgium finally correctly diagnosed Ren with autoimmunity, Lyme disease, and resulting damage to the brain, organs, joints, and PTSD. Ren eventually underwent stem cell therapy in the United States, which improved his health, but it has not been a cure.
    Ren is in Calgary, Canada for at least six months (Summer of 2023), undergoing treatments such as IV therapy and other interventions five days a week, as well as surgeries (wisdom tooth removal and cavitation surgery). His Canadian doctor discovered that Ren also developed a condition called Mast Cell Activation Disorder (MCAD), which has affected the myelin sheath in his brain, his thyroid, and adrenals as well as his bones/joints. Hence, Ren is receiving additional treatments for this previously undiagnosed condition. He recently took a break from treatments and returned to the UK to visit family and friends, and to produce some very ambitious musical projects to be released soon.
    Let's keep supporting Ren as he undergoes his treatments. Check out and subscribe to his channel; if you are a content creator, ask your audience to subscribe to Ren. Ren's YT channel just surpassed 1 million subscribers. and his videos have garnered millions and millions of views. Listen to some of his earlier work, like and comment on his performances, and let's lift Ren's spirits. If you are a believer, pray for him. Ren is an artist with something to say to the world, and his work is important in these troubling times. Someone has finally created a Wikipedia page for Ren, so there is additional information available.

    Jesse did good pointing you in this direction! Ren is a phenomenon, and I'm not kidding - this must be my 700th listening of this masterpiece and I'm _still_ taken aback at how much raw talent is packed into this singular performance. Renegades ride hard, we love and we uplift wherever we go - Ren sets the example though, truly. He's a man who actually walks the talk. I highly recommend you listen to whatever is recommended here (that sounds like a cop-out, but you'll discover not one of his songs is either to be expected nor in any way disappointing, so you could shut your eyes and throw a dart and always find a bull's eye).

    From memory
    Ren.
    Older than you might think (born 1990)
    Welsh (he does speak the language, many don't)
    .
    Accent, (you asked) more Southern English, almost London (my city).
    .
    Contracted Lyme disease (bitten by a tick, will become apparent in later works).
    Not only misdiagnosed, but mistreated by doctors who thought the symptoms may not be "physical".
    The resulting treatments destroyed his physical and mental wellbeing, much of which you saw portrayed here.
    Having tried many cures, traditional and more bizarre, he was finally diagnosed correctly by a Belgian doctor and then began attempts to find treatment.
    Late last year he found a team with a suitable treatment protocol in Calgary and has been both staying there and commuting elsewhere since during his prolonged treatment.
    .
    He has other demons (look for reference to "Joe") which will also become apparent, but he's now at the point where we should "cower at the man he's become"!
    .
    Hope this helps.
    .
    Enjoy the journey.

    A great reaction!! Sick boi sort of goes with hi ren and gives more background to him. Everything he does is totally unique, there are references to his other tracks you will pick up on after listening to a few, he can rap, sing, act, he produces his own music, plays guitar and piano, he is supremely talented!!!

  • @TobiiRheaStarr
    @TobiiRheaStarr 10 месяцев назад +1

    Welcome to the Renaissance! Ren is my favourite artist of all time. I say artist because he is a multifaceted diamond! From singing (all styles) to rapping (bars/flows/schemes for days), Bardcore (story telling) beatbox, makes his own beats, scatting and a multi instrumentalist (guitars, bass, drums, melodica and more). On top of that he is the most beautiful human being inside and out who has been through and continues to go through absolute hell.
    He’s 33 from Anglesey, Wales originally but spent most his life in Brighton, England. He’s been living in Calgary, Canada all year receiving intense medical treatment for his brain damage and mast cell activation disorder amongst other things.
    He started off making beats at 12 and selling CDs then moved on to busking. He was part of a band called Trick The Fox and was signed to Sony but they didn’t renew the contract after his health deteriorated. He then started The Big Push. They went on hiatus the end of last year after 5 years partly due to his move to Canada and also because the other members are also soloists and were moving around too.
    I have a list of songs to check out of all styles. Obviously this is no where near everything but gives you places to start. 🖤
    Ren song list
    Here’s a list to get you going (I know you’ve seen a few) 🖤

  • @VideosbyLisaLisa
    @VideosbyLisaLisa 11 месяцев назад +2

    Ren's mad talented. Various genres, but all authentic and artistically crafted - even his "retakes" which are basically covers with all new lyrics. You'd probably enjoy their "covers," which are usually medleys or mash-ups with a little something extra. My fave is "I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop," but their "War Pigs" is actually a bunch of Black Sabbath with a touch of RAtM. For more autobiographical lyrics, "Sick Boi" and the latter half of "Illest of Our Time" are key. For masterful storytelling, try the trilogy, "The Tales of Jenny and Screech" or "Money Game" parts 1&2 (3 is coming in a month). For bars, try "Genesis" or "Illest of Our Time." For fast rap, "The Hunger" or "Losing It." For upbeat with a reggae/ska/soul vibe, try "Humble" or "Ocean." For singing, try "Chalk Outlines (live)" or "How to Be Me (live)." For rock-ish, try "Ready for You," "Crutch," "Wild Place" or "Hold On."
    And if you just want fun Ren, "What You Want," "Power," "Murderer," "1990s" or "Losing It."
    That's a lot, but gives you an idea of how many directions you can go. Not to mention any of his busking sessions alone or collaborating are awesome. The Ren rabbit hole goes deep.
