Bro. . MORE Ren to do!!! Ready for you!!! At the least! Or new video... Wicked Ways Visualizer video! Seven Sins, Loco and Sick Boi pt 2 don't have videos yet!!!
I'm so glad you checked this one out!! It's probably one of my favourites too - just lyrically, it's something so deep and meaningful. Love your Ren reactions - ALWAYS look forward to checking them out, thanks so much :)
I really loved this one. All of his animated ones are nearly as good as his live performance ones. He has a NEW one dropping on his birthday, March 29th. I just saw an Instagram, where he said that he was biased but thought that it was truly an anthem. I can't wait. I'm sure that it will be wonderful and just blow up. Thank you so much for this. A genuine reaction, will win me over every time. Not that I needed to be won over. You have had my mad respect for quite some time.😸
Great reaction. Love this track, along with Humble, Ocean and Dominoes. Hell who am I trying to kid? I could just keep on listing his whole catalog of music!! If Ren has produced a bad track I have yet to find it!
I like this one because I feel like it reflects his poetry and state of mind. Definitely relatable to people who are going through things and being honest and introspective with one’s self.
Humble ft. Eden Nash is probably the most upbeat and radio friendly Ren song. One of my favorites right now. Has a big time Bob Marley/Rihanna duet vibe.
Loved your review! I agree, Ren is creating his own Lane just like twenty one pilots. His music is eclectic and yet has that 'Ren' sound. I like this song, too. And I think the animation was a perfect medium bc it allowed for some great imagery to further his messages. Well done!
I enjoyed this reaction, thank you! I love this song, too. Now I'm curious what you'll say about Ren's Money Game part 2, Dear God, Depression and Insomnia! Oh, and yes: Don't forget to check out his new song that will drop on March 29th!
Loved this reaction and the breakdown! Have you considered doing a Ren playlist for easy access for us fans? I think I've seen most of them, but probably missed something, not sure if you covered the Trilogy Tales (full version) When reactors start going through Ren's catalog and each song is a new discovery, I just keep thinking, wait till you hear the next one. To me it just gets better and better - I think it's because he is a poet and like you said he has a very unique sound to his music and voice and he speaks about things that strikes a cord with so many people. All his animated ones are great - Diazepam, Everybody Drops, Crucify Your Culture. Also, Ocean, Love Music 2,3, Humble, Penitence, etc, etc. Like someone said, haven't found a bad song yet.
There's still plenty of Hip Hop Ren but might be time to delve into singing Ren. I'd start with Chalk Outlines feat Chinchilla live and check out anything he's done with Sam Tomkins and with his band The Big Push.
I think the instrument is, in fact, a toy piano. A few weeks ago I watched an interview done in his apartment and I noticed a particular brand of toy piano that I’ve been told by a piano playing friend says is worth the price because of its actually playable in a grown up way according to a piano playing friend. I’d thought it was pricey because it was in a fancy toy shop and imported from Germany but she said oh, no it’s because Blah blah piano facts. Anyway I thought it was an odd thing in an apartment full of young men although given the number of guitars strewn about and a full size piano, maybe not. And now I’ve heard this song it makes sense it was there.
Thanks for calling out some of my favourite bars. I just realized that there is a whole lot of Ren that you haven't discovered yet. For more sung rap, check out Ocean or Penitence, or Humble, Life Us Funny. And I think you need to check out How to be me and Diazepam to hear him sing. There is also Ren's latest band The Big Push. You could check them out busking with I Shit The Sheriff / Road to Zion / Hip Hop, or one if their originals, like Sweet Little Lady, XBOX Marijuana, or Precious. Wow there is so much more!
Ren "Earned it, Mans World and Falling (live street busking w/Sam Thompkins)" will showcase is vocal ability. Also "Alien" Musician performs House of the Rising Sun." Just a HUGE voice.
I love me some REN✨ all his work is a masterpiece 🎶💙haven’t heard a bad song seriously brilliant✨ 🙏🏽prayers for REN✨ the world needs him 🌎 🎶music is life 🎶✌🏽
Has he had vocal training? He has a college degree (more like a US community college 2 year certificate I think) in performance arts. That didn’t have to include singing training but it could have.
If you think this is already different, then you must check out Crutch ft Bibi (Ren recently mentioned this song as his most favourite from the first album), then take a turn to Oh my woman (under The Big Push title but vocally it’s all about Ren) His versatile when it comes to singing is unbelievable And one more thing, I dont know if this is it or not but when he talked about counting the waves, he said there’re 108 reasons to escape. In Japanese culture, they said there’re 108 evil desires that people have to suffer on earth. Ren used Japanese materials in some of his song and I don’t think he chose the number randomly so I suppose it might be it, just want to point it out😅
Great reaction again Sean. Lots of Ren's songs should be played on the radio but they aren't. I think Ren is OK with that at the moment. He is getting some messages across that would probably be an uncomfortable truth for the music industry/radio play etc. In other words, it is not bland!!
I love this one, thanks for doing it! If you like this you might also like diazepam, also he does a couple of duets with eden nash.. humble and ocean. Both on my playlist now!!
For possibly an even more radio-friendly sound (while lyrically not being something that would get play), check out Dominoes...no flashy video, but well worth a listen.
Fire reaction man! and I agree, this has got to be one of my favorite songs. My eyes water on how fine this song is, damn! I shake my head in disbelief on how he comes up with such beautiful songs.

Thank you! I’m enjoying this rabbit hole so far 🙏
@@SeanStaxxMusicactually I meant to suggest too, if you want to hear his vocals check out ren x chinchilla how to be me (live). You won't regret it!
You can just keep on going down that ren list I haven't found a bad one yet and I'll definitely listen to all them over and over again
I really loved this one. All of his animated ones are nearly as good as his live performance ones.

Glad somebody gave this track some love. So good. Cheers!
🙏🖤
Love how you do these breakdowns. I am so in love with Ren's music, I love "different". Can't get enough.
Great reaction. Love this track, along with Humble, Ocean and Dominoes. Hell who am I trying to kid? I could just keep on listing his whole catalog of music!! If Ren has produced a bad track I have yet to find it!
Fire, hold on, ocean, humble all seem like fire radio songs.
I like this one because I feel like it reflects his poetry and state of mind. Definitely relatable to people who are going through things and being honest and introspective with one’s self.

Great reaction. Please keep going down the Ren rabbit hole. Money Game pt2 next!

That’s the same list I’d recommend he check out next! I’d also add Ocean.
Check out Diazepam by Ren - it's another of my favorites! Great reaction, I'm glad you're getting to enjoy Ren's genius :)

It sounds exactly like a toy piano and nothing like a glockenspiel. I'm guessing our man here doesn't know what a glockenspiel sounds like.
Darn he just keeps exceeding expectations. Now I have another most favourite Ren song!
One of my favorites is 'Dear God'
More Ren, please! Great songs await you! Thanks for another great reaction - the eloquence and unique use of words is awesome!!!

Keep the Ren train going love your reactions. Appreciate you, thank you.
Thank you! Will do!

My favorite Ren track ❤❤❤❤
This is one of my fav9urites!
I’m glad you reacted to this and I hope others do as well. This is one of my favorite Ren songs.
I love me some REN✨
all his work is a masterpiece 🎶💙haven’t heard a bad song seriously brilliant✨
🙏🏽prayers for REN✨
the world needs him 🌎 🎶music is life 🎶✌🏽
Ren's mother's a singing teacher, so I'm sure he got some training either directly or indirectly.
Other brilliant animated one,s are "Everbody drops"- "diazepam" ..
Has he had vocal training? He has a college degree (more like a US community college 2 year certificate I think) in performance arts. That didn’t have to include singing training but it could have.
Both his parents are folk musicians and his mum is a vocal trainer.
I think I read that his mother is a singing coach.
Melanie Martinez soap and training wheels double feature is a great listen
Check out him performing with The Big Push as they deserve to be seen more too - I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop mash up is amazing
This song just gives me chills thanks for a great reaction!!
One of his best songs!
Diazepam is also in this vein. They are both very KCRW friendly. Good stuff. Also How To Be me is really great and almost radio friendly.
Lovely melancholic track. You never know what you get with ren, but you always get quality. 10 days until the new track, cannot wait!
True and same!
Man I'm just as hooked on your raw emotions in your reactions as I am Rens gut wrenching lyrics. Keep up the great work!!!!!!
I appreciate that 🙏
REN s song Fire , so different but it works worth a listen without any doubt !
I love this one so much ❤ thank you for another great reaction 😊 I appreciate you. I hope he manages to stay independent.
Thank you and I hope so too!
your one of my favourite reactors to rens songs. you just get them straight away, on THE level. thank you!
If you think this is already different, then you must check out Crutch ft Bibi (Ren recently mentioned this song as his most favourite from the first album), then take a turn to Oh my woman (under The Big Push title but vocally it’s all about Ren)
His versatile when it comes to singing is unbelievable
And one more thing, I dont know if this is it or not but when he talked about counting the waves, he said there’re 108 reasons to escape.

Outstanding…again!

This wasn’t one of my faves the first time I heard it but I do really like it now and you’re right his singing voice on this is awesome 🖤
Great reaction to a great song... ✊🏽
i connect to this one differently. def one of my fav ren songs so far.
This is one of my favorute Ren tracks! Im glad you checked it out.
Fire reaction man! and I agree, this has got to be one of my favorite songs. My eyes water on how fine this song is, damn! I shake my head in disbelief on how he comes up with such beautiful songs.
Life is funny and hold on are in this group I'd say
One of my absolute favorite songs!
Ren is so talented.....great song...thank you
He’s amazing!
This is definitely my favorite too. Loved your reaction ❤
fvkin enjoyed it a ton. insane musical content. have I been living under a rock all these years? 😵
I am enjoying your Ren reactions. If you like "Heretic" you'll love "Diazepam"
Thank you, I will
🔥🔥❤️🔥🔥 #Ren
Great reaction thanks. Love this song
His vids have always been good
Love this one, so beautiful, ❤
Glad you like it!
Agree with others who are recommending Diazapam. It has a similar feel.
Love this one,Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Strong Gorillas vibe to this one…
Maybe it's high time radio started broadcasting real music again...or risk fading into irrelevance with the rise of all the new platforms.
Ever think about listening to Melanie Martinez if you haven't heard of her maybe start with doll house
Happily, I don't think radio play is a consideration for Ren.
His mum teaches vocals.
That’s dope
❤
🖤
