If you're new here Welcome to the #ETG and if yall hit the sub and watch the whole reaction you won't be disappointed and in return I can promise many more Ren reactions. If yall are with me then I'm down for the rabbit hole 💯 For those interested in storytelling I challenge yall to support these 2 songs in order if you like Ren you will like these they play off each other and give the alter ego vibes. Written, mixed and mastered by yours truly. With your help maybe I won't be so unnoticed 🔽 Ess - When I Grow Up (Part 1): ruclips.net/video/R3UDQRJwe_Q/видео.html Ess - Spitzo's Symphony (Part 2): ruclips.net/video/aLYIdFl1YFk/видео.html
Loved the reaction , here for more ! If you are interested Ren just posted a BTS video to hi Ren . ruclips.net/video/xSBwpfjhJPM/видео.htmlsi=QM7ZNYcv_24AZTlV
Like many of Ren's songs/videos this was filmed live. That's sorta his thing as his background is in street busking so playing live is second nature to him. He is finally recovering from serious complications caused by misdiagnosed Lyme Disease and the damage caused by years of the wrong medications. He's just finished a 2yrs stretch of stem cell treatment in the States and Canada and finally returned to the UK. He is totally independant no music industry breathing down his neck so can do as he pleases. He is self taught mainly from YT videos after spending 6 years stuck in his room due to autoimmune disease and psychosis due to the meds. Ren's mates are all part of his team and Samuel Perry-Falvey his main videographer has recently won various awards for his film making. This video was made in his mates basement :) Ren is a performer, bard, songwriter, director, producer, singer, beatboxer, rapper, actor, poet, lyricist, guitarist, pianist and general all round lovely lad
PS... Do NOT do his Kujo Beat Down video without watching his "Why Sick Boi is off all platforms" FIRST!!!!!! Preferably... not til after digging into Rens catalog and story! Cause he went Beast Mode... surprised ALL rhe RENegades! But it didnt... cause he warned us it was ANGRY! Rightfully So!!! Again... watch Why Sick Boi is gone FIRST!!!!! Before Kujo Beat Down!!!
Totally agree, I was even going to post this comment myself. In the beat down, it's all evil Ren and his proper pissed.!!! In fact, we Renagades reckon Ren invented a brand new genre with the beat down, it's called Diss theatre.!!! 😂😂👍👍
finding Ren at this point in time is like finding the best TV-show you've seen in a long time and then noticing you got like 4 seasons to binge. Bring the popcorn and sit down man. Start from Episode one (Hi Ren, The Tales of Jenny&Screech, Fisher Remix, Love Music Pt1, Money Game Pt1) move along the highs of season 2(Sick Boi, Love Music Pt2-3, Money Game Pt2 Lyric Video, Genesis, Animal Flow, Chalk Outlines) grab a tissue for season 3 because that shit is emotional (Su!c!de, For Joe, Love Music Pt4, Seven Sins), find the x-mas special you missed(Dotta Diss Rap, Bittersweet Symphony, acoustic covers of other songs, busking) then put your foot on the gas and go season 4 crazy (Money Game Pt3, Sick Boi Taken Down Video, Kujo Beat Down) - not a real timeline but a great fucking time and order to listen.
While I generally agree, I think everyone’s Ren journey is unique. I don’t think there’s a wrong way to enjoy the Ren experience, other than not going deep enough, of course
@@guyincognito7442there isnt a wrong way but for the sake of doing reaction videos and to save confusion its best not to start with Kujo Beat Down. Ive seen multiple people start with it, say wtf is going on what did i miss, this is too crazy, then start at hi ren make their way to animal flow then remember Kujo and think nah that aint crazy thats on point
If you want story telling & depth... The Tales of Jenny & Screech! It's a 13 min video with 3 tales put together. Do them all at once. You won't be sorry lol. Welcome to the wonderful world of Ren! His art is almost as amazing as his soul, one of the most genuine and humble humans on this planet! The rabbit hole is deep, enjoy the ride!
Jenny and Screech is great but I stopped watching reactions to it because it’s too difficult for me right now. Money Game would be my suggestion instead.
Great reaction. You have no idea what you will listen to. I’m in my 50s and love all decent music. Ren is the best I’ve seen in a very long time. Enjoy.
I’m in my 50’s too, but I’m careful about saying that to young people when introducing Ren to them. I’m scared they might think I’m an old fart, so therefore Ren is gonna be trash. 😂
Ren has more layers than an onion, more Bars than a prison! No genre is safe from him, and he even has two of his own... Bardcore and Diss Theater! Just when ya think ya have him figured out... the very next track proves ya Dont!!! Lol A Master Lyricist, Story Teller, Producing his own works, and a multi-instrumentalist to boot! Totally independent, he's the most impressive artist I've ever seen in my 40 plus years in the business!!! Seriously... Buckle up!!! His catalog is the definition of a Rabbit Hole! No Bad tracks imo!!!
@AnneBiebrich proper of you to point that out, I hope he reads that comment, that fact changes everything. I bet he didn't have too many takes, might have been the first try knowing how talented he is!
Yes, Plan B is a real artist. He’s a UK rapper/singer. If you like storytelling then your next stop should be the Tale of Jenny & Screech. Don’t worry so much about backing up. It’s needed to keep the flow. If you ever need his lyrics they’re normally pinned in the comments.
Even more impressive when you know that they recorded this in 30 minutes as the building owner told them they had to leave. They pleaded with him and he agreed to let them stay for 30 minutes.
@@Esca1010there are definitely two sets of camera shots - it’s impossible to get those close-up in-your-face shots without being literally in his face, which would clearly be visible in the alternating wider shots. But… 95+% of the video is from a single main take, and 100% of the audio is from that take. Mind-blowing stuff….
May I suggest, you being a rapper, to get that itch scratched, you try ' the hunger' next. Then to the tale of jenny and screech tribology after. You will be fully hooked by then. Great reaction, we all come because we can't experience this song for the first time ever again.
Renegade here.. been following him (and all of his amazingly talented cohorts) for a couple of years now. Looking forward to following your journey.. you won’t be disappointed - but, you will be surprised over and over and over.. at just how talented this young man is!! I’m an ‘oldie’ - grew up listening to 60s-70s and 80s music.. just about gave up completely with what is called ‘music’ of today. Restored faith since watching Ren, and all those he’s brought along! Great reaction.. looking forward to many more!
@@DerMarodeur incorrect. It is visibly obvious that it is different takes with varied gown lengths, hand positions on guitar and disappearing mics. Oh and of course the fact that Ren said he spliced the video together from multiple takes.
@@CreativePhotoWS there is a BTS just put up on renmakesstuff channel. 4 takes in half an hour, 3 cameras, audio worked well, Ren edited the camera angles. Worth a watch.
Sick Boi, Seven sins, Tale of jenny and screech full version, the list of sugestions could be so long , all are superb, I have yet to hear a bad song from Ren, will enjoy joining you on your Ren Journey :)
"Plan B" is totally a name of an artist. But recall what Ren says: "A battle with his subconscious - Eminem did it" / "played on guitar" / "Plan B did it"... Yeah, the thing that Plan B did (before Ren) was to rap with a guitar. ruclips.net/video/pfeN956uWtA/видео.html
I’ve watched countless reactions of Hi Ren over the past year and a half and your reaction gave me the chills I originally felt when I watched this for the first time. We must think similar so thanks and so glad you finally got to Ren. I’m so excited to go down the Ren rabbit hole with you! Subbed for me!!!❤
Chills?! Shit, your lucky, I tear up every damn time I hear this song. I found Ren a while back and liked him a ton right away. The boy is sheer talent wrapped in a welsh body hahaha. Btw, watch the money game series, the 3rd is my favorite and you can see that the kid has acting talent on top of his particular flow and amazing voice.
Welcome to the Reniverse and the Renegade community! Subbing to follow you down the Ren rabbit hole. It's a journey filled with joy, laughter, tears and everything inbetween!
Yes, Ren is special. He is beyond special. And yes!!!! I always wait to see the reaction to "loosen the noose on the rope". Not everyone is struck by it. It punched me in my soul. Glad to see you react to it
Painting a story and image is what he’s really good at. Among million other things 😂. He’s a great story teller. If you continue reacting to him, you’ll see. 🙂Check out his Jenny and Screech’s Tale - the trilogy. It’s amazing. But make sure you choose the video where all 3 tales are together. Because they’re also posted separately. You need to watch them in order Jenny’s, Screech’s and then Violet’s tale.
No matter what level of the Ren journey you are on, you are very welcome. Most people started off seeing Hi Ren, then sought out more and fell DEEP into the Ren rabbit hole... you have so much to discover, Im excited for you. I look forward to seeing you fall for this artist even more, as will the Renegades!

Tried adding a comment before it disappeared incomplete so here I go: Your reaction is very much the type I am looking for as a Renegade. I am so confused about why so many rappers haven’t noticed Ren yet. I also want the reggae kings, soul masters, hip hop specialists, music theory psychologists just everybody to see, (not just see, SEE) what Ren is about. So, you have a massive rabbit hole to fall down. There is nothing more special than a RenVirgin (should we hashtag that?), actually get our Boi in first look. Keep on putting out videos and I will keep on watching!
I've been watching Ren reactors for almost two years now. You're definitely something special... subbed, and here for your new road trip!! You're already a Renegade man, welcome to the cult!! 💜
PLEASE do: "How to be Me." The live one. That way you can add Chinchilla to your list, plus it's AMAZING!! Illest of Our Time, Genesis, The Hunger for his rapping. I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop (needs to be the one with the red suspenders), War Pigs, Englishman in New York, What Kind of Woman is This, Bongo Bong for his old band The Big Push. Blind Eyed (M.C. sessions first, then ABSOLUTELY do the Angry Car-park Attendant version for the funniest "anything and everything go wrong" music video EVER) ... Or just throw darts at a list on the wall, lol! It's ALL incredible, you really can't go wrong! Just make ABSOLUTELY SURE you get to Seven Sins. Holy crap that one is amazing!! And he's soooo proud of that one, rightfully so!! Just have fun, it's all incredible!!!
Im sure someones probably already said it but this is 1 take live performance with multiple cameras for the angles. He only had 4 tries due to time constraints to get it
Great reaction man 👍 Ren !!!! You're done 😂 Tremendous artist, song writer, beatboxer, musician, poet, story teller, producer and he's an Independent artist , he produces his own songs and makes his own beats... The rabbit hole is deep wide and full of masterpieces, you're gonna love it for sure 😉 More Ren please ! Thanks 😘
Another renegade popping in to welcome you to the rabbit hole. I recommend "sick boi" and "I shot the sheriff - the big push" ( Ren sings and playing in the band " The Big Push". Looking forward to another reaction. Much love and may the tide rise.
Welcome to the world of Ren! Great reaction! It is especially satisfying to watch someone who knows what it takes truly appreciating what Ren is bringing to the table.❤ Be assured that all the recommendations you will receive are proper and lead to the many amazing facets of this diamond. My two cents: if you want experience storytelling at its finest ...do check out "The Tale of Jenny and Screech (the whole13+ min version) ...If you want to hear some impressive bars...don't miss "The Hunger" ....if you want something a little more R&B...can't do better than "Back On 74/Message in a Bottle - retake".... You are going to have some fun my friend!!! Enjoy! ✌
Bro cheers for this reaction 🙌 & I too still after a year of listening to this get chills when I hear that line "losen the noose on the rope" 😢👊👌 he is a genius!!
Seriously Bro... he can RAP RAP, Sing, Act, Perform, he does it all!!! Don't overlook his band The Big Push, or the Many duets, or his older works! The one thing you Can count on is... Being surprised! SHOCKED really! He'll make a grown man cry too... his lyrics are that Deep! Seriously... Ya Gotta do more!
Canadian Renegade here brother!! Ren's talent is unmatched in this day and age. Great reaction! The Renegades are here! 🤘🤘You're gonna love deep diving for months with all of his catalogue.
Welcome in, Renegades are ALL about support. So, of course I subbed. Ren is an AMAZING artist. I am REALLY looking forward to being part of your journey. You have one INCREDIBLE day. ❤🤗❤
wellcome to Ren´s world!!!!! new suscriber here, Renegade here, xD!!! looking up for your next reaction!!!!!dd whatever song you choose of Ren it will be amazing!!
New sub here from Arizona, I'm here for any and all Ren reactions. As a 54 year old music lover my whole life, Ren has reconfigured my mind for the better and REN-EWED my heart & soul by making me really hear music for the 1st time in my life! Thank you for the great reaction! What an amazing journey awaits you! 😁
When you start reacting to Ren songs you're going to get a giant influx of Renegades watching, liking, sharing and subscribing. And you will find that we don't care how long the video gets if it's a decent, thoughtful breakdown. Seriously, we will watch videos that run over an hour if it's good, so don't let run time stop you on a Ren song, trust me.
Yo bro, REN is a ARTISTICAL GENIUS. He did this on just One Take. great reaction, love it Need to check out Angelina Jordan, we fans are crazy loyal and know everything about her. You will be welcomed down the rabbit HOME ☮️❤️
@@esstvgang Wicked Ways is one of my favorite rap songs. Genesis and The Hunger, and Power are great too. If you're a Beasty Boys fan, What You Want pays homage and it's loads of fun. Losing It is crazy.
Great reaction. You have NO IDEA how deep this rabbit hole goes. Ren can quite literally do it ALL. Absolute Shakespearean levels of talent and versatility that could very well lead to him standing among the greatest that have ever been. And I do not say that lightly. To top it all off… he’s an exceptionally good and decent human being. A gem. I’ll be here for your Ren journey. Subbed! ☮️♥️
Im so pumped you're diving down the Ren rabit hole ❤❤❤ PLEASEE MORE REN❤❤❤ For crazy bars check out heretic, money game, For amazing collab singing check out chalk outlines, how to be me with chinchilla, FOR amaźing busking vids he does an amazing Bob Marley, rage against the machine, and so much more
I've watched Rens video a million times, I've watched a thousand reactions... you hit the nail on the head brother.... you get it... you have a new subscriber from the uk...
I love watching people find Ren. You are in for a beautiful ride. Ren is something so special that he can not be put into a genre. Here for the journey. ❤
Chalk Outlines, The Hunger, The Big Push (Rens band). Sooo many great songs.. Once you've gone down the Ren rabbit hole you'll never be the same again.
I will say, one thing that is over looked because it is a hindsight thing with this song is the increased tension between the two mindsets. The darkness ramps up each time the light pushes back until the last section when his voice softens and he doesn’t interrupt and waits to give his words. It is a reflection of the end where he is talking to us directly and he even says he had to learn to do that. The light at the end became more fluid in words and emotions and eases the tension. It is absolutely insane how much talent Ren has and how uplifting he is while also being able to flex all these skills he has self taught. 1 take, live video? That is beyond insane! Ren is a very rare talent that comes into the world randomly. ❤
I saw this video at my lowest point, I´d given up dealing with my illness, distanced myself from my family and friends, all in preperation for not being here no more. That moment he stood up from the chair, I burst out in tears and decided I would stand up for myself, continue existing. It´s a struggle every day, but I cherish Ren for this awakening of mine, I still tear up seeing this performance, reviews of this performance. I truly believe art created from the heart has healing in it, this did so for my in any case.
Yep I’m subbing!! ❤ 🔥🔥🔥 .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. Ren is 33 from Anglesey, Wales originally but spent most his adult life in Brighton, England. He has been very ill for years, at one point being completely bed ridden. He was misdiagnosed for years, being told he was bipolar, had M.E and more and was prescribed medications that made him worse and ended up in psychosis. It turns out Ren had Lyme disease which has caused havoc on his body. 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 that were caused by the Lyme disease. 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 songs in best order to watch them (although there isn’t a specific order technically, this is a good way to go) 📚Serious/storytelling📚 Hi Ren The Tale of Jenny and Screech (full) SickBoi Chalk outlines live How to be me live Suic*de For Joe Money Game 1, 2, 3 🎤Showing off his rap etc talent🎤 Losing it The hunger Power Illest of our time Genesis Genesis acoustic Murderer Murderer acoustic Animal flow Animal flow acoustic what you want (beastie boys homage) 🎸The big push 🎸 I shot the sheriff/ road to Zion/ hip hop Wade in the water/ Nina Simone/ trouble so hard Englishman in New York live Swan song Watch out (red suspenders) Sweet little lady Sweet little lady live Why my woman?

Yeah he did say Plan B, he is an artist and he is awesome. His concept album The Defamation of Strickland Banks is a classic and I would imagine was an influence on Ren, as was Eminem. Great reaction. Ren is extraordinary. I don’t think I have admired an artist more. I’m looking forward to seeing your Ren journey. Subbed ❤️
This information gives you some background on Ren and puts much of his music and performance art in perspective. I gathered the information from old newspaper interviews, articles, and Ren's public livestreams and posts. All the information here was gathered exclusively from sources Ren personally approved for public release. Ren is a Welsh independent artist/singer/songwriter/busker/producer, living in Brighton, UK. He plays multiple instruments (acoustic, electric, and bass guitar, piano, melodica, drums, cello), has impressive vocals, beatboxes, produces all his own beats, is an excellent storyteller, and is quite the philosopher and poet. He is considered by many a modern-day bard; he once jokingly called his music "bardcore" and it stuck. Ren's music videos are frequently recorded live using a lavalier mic, often in a single take, although not necessarily the first take, and from various camera angles. In the case of the music video performance of "Hi Ren," it took four takes, all live in the room, to get the footage he wanted. "Sick Boi," is almost another chapter to "Hi Ren" and appears to have been filmed in the same room. Ren also has a live version of “Hi Ren” that was recorded in front of an audience. Ren has been creating great music for more than ten years. Many of Ren's songs resonate with people because he addresses struggles that many others face every day. Deservedly so, in October 2023, Ren album “Sick Boi” hit #1 on the UK Billboard album charts. Every RENegade should listen to this beautiful and moving poem/spoken word tribute to Ren's accomplishment of hitting #1 on the UK album charts. It is from a young artist by the name of Sonny Saxton, and he skillfully weaves many of Ren's song titles and lyrics into his poem. I hope Ren will notice and watch it. Here is the link; well worth everyone’s time. ruclips.net/video/Kkp3B-x6-Io/видео.html&lc=UgwmBUMbXrER6Mx4WwJ4AaABAg.9w8dqTD6k0V9wAM4gBoRW3 Ren pursued a career in music from an early age. In 2009, while studying music performance at Bath Spa University, he 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 has spend the last 1 ½ years in Calgary, Canada, undergoing treatment for Lyme Disease and other medical conditions brought on by the disease, such as Mast Cell Activation Disorder (MCAD), which has affected the myelin sheath in his brain, his thyroid, and adrenals as well as his bones/joints. Ren hit #1 on the UK Billboard Album Charts last October. Check out and subscribe to his channel; if you are a content creator, ask your audience to subscribe to Ren's channel. Let’s help make Ren a household name.
Great reaction. Subbed for more Ren! ☮️♥️ Rap: The Hunger Illest of our Time Genesis Etc etc Orrrrr… Money Game trilogy #1-music video. #2-LYRIC video. #3- music video. All are amazing. Singing: Back in 74, Chalk Outlines, Big Push street performances: I shot the sheriff.
Do a get a full view of Ren and the story of his life, go through the Chapters on his channel. Maybe not for reaction, but to get the full picture of who he is and the challenges he faced and still faces.
Plan B made one of the great UK albums "The Defamation of Strickland Banks" But I would tell you to check out the track "Ill Manors" You won't regret it!
2 stages of watching Hi Ren Stage 1: Holy sh*t this a 9 minute song, so i wont pause too much Stage 2: F**k it, this is gonna be a 30 minute video. We dont care if you pause.. it means youre getting it.
So happy you are discovering Ren. He is an incredible artist. He has several of these "art piece" type songs that are just masterpieces. And also a lot of more typical music. He does everything, and it's all good. I'll be watching for more.
everybody gets chills at the same time…. and for a reason. i’ve heard this song a 100 times and still do. i think that lyric hits so many of us a deeply personal way in our darkest memories
🌋🌋🌋 reaction!! Like bees to honey, the Renegades come buzzing in to watch the Ren reactions! Most of us started with Hi Ren, then discovered that there's gold in Ren's music no matter which way you go from there. He's one of the few artists I've ever encountered who is consistently top-shelf from song to song. Look forward to more of your Ren reactions (which also includes his band The Big Push and multiple collaborations: Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, Chris Webby, Prof, Eden Nash and many more).
If you're new here Welcome to the #ETG and if yall hit the sub and watch the whole reaction you won't be disappointed and in return I can promise many more Ren reactions. If yall are with me then I'm down for the rabbit hole 💯 For those interested in storytelling I challenge yall to support these 2 songs in order if you like Ren you will like these they play off each other and give the alter ego vibes. Written, mixed and mastered by yours truly. With your help maybe I won't be so unnoticed 🔽

Your Ren reaction brought me here and I will be here whenever you react to our Boi!
Like many of Ren's songs/videos this was filmed live. That's sorta his thing as his background is in street busking so playing live is second nature to him. He is finally recovering from serious complications caused by misdiagnosed Lyme Disease and the damage caused by years of the wrong medications. He's just finished a 2yrs stretch of stem cell treatment in the States and Canada and finally returned to the UK. He is totally independant no music industry breathing down his neck so can do as he pleases. He is self taught mainly from YT videos after spending 6 years stuck in his room due to autoimmune disease and psychosis due to the meds. Ren's mates are all part of his team and Samuel Perry-Falvey his main videographer has recently won various awards for his film making. This video was made in his mates basement :)
Ren is a performer, bard, songwriter, director, producer, singer, beatboxer, rapper, actor, poet, lyricist, guitarist, pianist and general all round lovely lad
this was done live they had 3 camera set up Recording he has mic on neck and his guitar is plug in
PS... Do NOT do his Kujo Beat Down video without watching his "Why Sick Boi is off all platforms" FIRST!!!!!!
Preferably... not til after digging into Rens catalog and story! Cause he went Beast Mode... surprised ALL rhe RENegades! But it didnt... cause he warned us it was ANGRY!
Rightfully So!!!
Again... watch Why Sick Boi is gone FIRST!!!!! Before Kujo Beat Down!!!
I agree with this notion, but accept all experiences.of Ren.
Totally agree, I was even going to post this comment myself.
In the beat down, it's all evil Ren and his proper pissed.!!!
In fact, we Renagades reckon Ren invented a brand new genre with the beat down, it's called Diss theatre.!!! 😂😂👍👍
finding Ren at this point in time is like finding the best TV-show you've seen in a long time and then noticing you got like 4 seasons to binge. Bring the popcorn and sit down man. Start from Episode one (Hi Ren, The Tales of Jenny&Screech, Fisher Remix, Love Music Pt1, Money Game Pt1) move along the highs of season 2(Sick Boi, Love Music Pt2-3, Money Game Pt2 Lyric Video, Genesis, Animal Flow, Chalk Outlines) grab a tissue for season 3 because that shit is emotional (Su!c!de, For Joe, Love Music Pt4, Seven Sins), find the x-mas special you missed(Dotta Diss Rap, Bittersweet Symphony, acoustic covers of other songs, busking) then put your foot on the gas and go season 4 crazy (Money Game Pt3, Sick Boi Taken Down Video, Kujo Beat Down) - not a real timeline but a great fucking time and order to listen.
While I generally agree, I think everyone’s Ren journey is unique. I don’t think there’s a wrong way to enjoy the Ren experience, other than not going deep enough, of course
@@guyincognito7442there isnt a wrong way but for the sake of doing reaction videos and to save confusion its best not to start with Kujo Beat Down. Ive seen multiple people start with it, say wtf is going on what did i miss, this is too crazy, then start at hi ren make their way to animal flow then remember Kujo and think nah that aint crazy thats on point
If you want story telling & depth... The Tales of Jenny & Screech! It's a 13 min video with 3 tales put together. Do them all at once. You won't be sorry lol. Welcome to the wonderful world of Ren! His art is almost as amazing as his soul, one of the most genuine and humble humans on this planet! The rabbit hole is deep, enjoy the ride!
Jenny and Screech is great but I stopped watching reactions to it because it’s too difficult for me right now. Money Game would be my suggestion instead.
Hi Ren opens Ren's Heart to the world. The Tale of Jenny and Screech opens you up to Ren's mind... WOWZERS.
@@arielbussart1305 that's good to know thanks. Ren is truly amazing love the guy I'm an old Renegade
I concur
This is a must but you must do all 3 together
Great reaction. You have no idea what you will listen to. I’m in my 50s and love all decent music. Ren is the best I’ve seen in a very long time. Enjoy.
PS. please read up on his story as he was very very ill. And is still having to deal with stuff. But he soldiers on!
I’m in my 50’s too, but I’m careful about saying that to young people when introducing Ren to them. I’m scared they might think I’m an old fart, so therefore Ren is gonna be trash. 😂
Yep me too in my 50's, I like all sorts, now obsessed with Ren 😊
I need a friend that loves Ren.Nobody around knows who he is😑
@darkmatter6714 We are all Renagades regardless of age! 😉
Ren has more layers than an onion, more Bars than a prison!
No genre is safe from him, and he even has two of his own... Bardcore and Diss Theater!
Just when ya think ya have him figured out... the very next track proves ya Dont!!! Lol
A Master Lyricist, Story Teller, Producing his own works, and a multi-instrumentalist to boot!
Totally independent, he's the most impressive artist I've ever seen in my 40 plus years in the business!!!
Seriously... Buckle up!!!
His catalog is the definition of a Rabbit Hole! No Bad tracks imo!!!
Perfect comment couldn't agree with you more. You put my scattered thoughts into fluent typing. ❤ Thank you
This is a live performance and one take with 3 camera angles! Notice the mic on the neck and his guitar is plugged in to a pack he is wearing
@AnneBiebrich proper of you to point that out, I hope he reads that comment, that fact changes everything. I bet he didn't have too many takes, might have been the first try knowing how talented he is!
Well said!!
Need to go down the REN rabbit hole, he is the most talented artist you will ever encounter
💯 ❤
Yes, Plan B is a real artist. He’s a UK rapper/singer. If you like storytelling then your next stop should be the Tale of Jenny & Screech. Don’t worry so much about backing up. It’s needed to keep the flow. If you ever need his lyrics they’re normally pinned in the comments.
I've watched 100s of these reactions over the past year. Enjoy them every time. Subbed for your journey through the rabbithole.
I do have one song request from Ren. It is not an often reacted to song but it is my favorite. Humble
@@MrDouglashedYes! And Ocean
"This guy is special."
Truer words have not been spoken.
Welcome to the Renegade. 😊
Even more impressive when you know that they recorded this in 30 minutes as the building owner told them they had to leave. They pleaded with him and he agreed to let them stay for 30 minutes.
Right! This whole performance was one live take, video and audio, are from that take!
@@Esca1010there are definitely two sets of camera shots - it’s impossible to get those close-up in-your-face shots without being literally in his face, which would clearly be visible in the alternating wider shots. But… 95+% of the video is from a single main take, and 100% of the audio is from that take. Mind-blowing stuff….
@@omegacsblog according to Sam (rens video director) it was recorded in one take. But you could be right for the close up
That's a one shot performance too. Took him 4 tries to get it but that's why he's actually mic'd up and just using the room's acoustics
May I suggest, you being a rapper, to get that itch scratched, you try ' the hunger' next. Then to the tale of jenny and screech tribology after. You will be fully hooked by then. Great reaction, we all come because we can't experience this song for the first time ever again.
agree. Thats a good shout
I agree the hunger or animal flow are pure rap. If you want a little fun with your sauce what you want and power are some of my favorites.
"This man is special."
Yes, he certainly is. Subbing to enjoy your Ren journey.
Renegade here.. been following him (and all of his amazingly talented cohorts) for a couple of years now. Looking forward to following your journey.. you won’t be disappointed - but, you will be surprised over and over and over.. at just how talented this young man is!! I’m an ‘oldie’ - grew up listening to 60s-70s and 80s music.. just about gave up completely with what is called ‘music’ of today. Restored faith since watching Ren, and all those he’s brought along! Great reaction.. looking forward to many more!
Don't forget this is also live and one take!
That's pretty incredible
Live yes. One take no. The audio is indeed from a single take but the video is spliced from multiple takes.
@@CreativePhotoWSNot correct, only different cameraviews
@@DerMarodeur incorrect. It is visibly obvious that it is different takes with varied gown lengths, hand positions on guitar and disappearing mics. Oh and of course the fact that Ren said he spliced the video together from multiple takes.
@@CreativePhotoWS there is a BTS just put up on renmakesstuff channel. 4 takes in half an hour, 3 cameras, audio worked well, Ren edited the camera angles. Worth a watch.
Sick Boi, Seven sins, Tale of jenny and screech full version, the list of sugestions could be so long , all are superb, I have yet to hear a bad song from Ren, will enjoy joining you on your Ren Journey :)
Ren The Hunger/ Illest of our Time
Oh yeah. He will love these
"Plan B" is totally a name of an artist. But recall what Ren says: "A battle with his subconscious - Eminem did it" / "played on guitar" / "Plan B did it"... Yeah, the thing that Plan B did (before Ren) was to rap with a guitar. ruclips.net/video/pfeN956uWtA/видео.html
Welcome to the world of Ren. We like pauses and reflections. Renegade from Texas, much love 🧡🧡🧡
Hey! Texas here too. Houston. This guy's channel is gonna blow up. No such thing as too many pauses and reflections!
Every Ren song is a surprise.
Every song different. New.
A lot of them impactful and important. Otherwise, just plain FUN.
I’ve watched countless reactions of Hi Ren over the past year and a half and your reaction gave me the chills I originally felt when I watched this for the first time. We must think similar so thanks and so glad you finally got to Ren. I’m so excited to go down the Ren rabbit hole with you! Subbed for me!!!❤
Much love thank you for the support 🙌
Chills?! Shit, your lucky, I tear up every damn time I hear this song. I found Ren a while back and liked him a ton right away. The boy is sheer talent wrapped in a welsh body hahaha. Btw, watch the money game series, the 3rd is my favorite and you can see that the kid has acting talent on top of his particular flow and amazing voice.
Welcome to the Reniverse and the Renegade community! Subbing to follow you down the Ren rabbit hole. It's a journey filled with joy, laughter, tears and everything inbetween!
Fun fact: there’s artist Plan B in UK and there’s artist Plan B in Germany. British Plan B became this big in Europe, German Plan B changed name
Chapters is a must listen.. he’s amazing and his journey is just extraordinary. Fighting for his life kept him from really going big at a younger age.
Yes, Ren is special. He is beyond special. And yes!!!! I always wait to see the reaction to "loosen the noose on the rope". Not everyone is struck by it. It punched me in my soul. Glad to see you react to it
He is an artist's artist. Because he is such a student of ALL music, his ear and sound design choices or concepts are exceptional.
You don’t know what you’re in for. Enjoy!
I’ve watched your stuff. Your flow is 🔥
Painting a story and image is what he’s really good at. Among million other things 😂. He’s a great story teller. If you continue reacting to him, you’ll see. 🙂Check out his Jenny and Screech’s Tale - the trilogy. It’s amazing. But make sure you choose the video where all 3 tales are together. Because they’re also posted separately. You need to watch them in order Jenny’s, Screech’s and then Violet’s tale.
Welcome to the wonderful world of ren, where you can always expect the unexpected 😊 subbed to watch your journey down the rabit hole! 🥹💜
They'll keep coming if yall keep supporting and subscribing 🤟💯
Be prepared for the Renegades coming in masses. ❤
No matter what level of the Ren journey you are on, you are very welcome. Most people started off seeing Hi Ren, then sought out more and fell DEEP into the Ren rabbit hole... you have so much to discover, Im excited for you. I look forward to seeing you fall for this artist even more, as will the Renegades!
Plan B is a U.K. Rapper, Singer, Song Writer, Producer, Film Writer, Director and Actor (btw Plan B doesn’t mean what you were thinking anywhere else in the world)

Tried adding a comment before it disappeared incomplete so here I go:
Your reaction is very much the type I am looking for as a Renegade. I am so confused about why so many rappers haven’t noticed Ren yet. I also want the reggae kings, soul masters, hip hop specialists, music theory psychologists just everybody to see, (not just see, SEE) what Ren is about. So, you have a massive rabbit hole to fall down. There is nothing more special than a RenVirgin (should we hashtag that?), actually get our Boi in first look. Keep on putting out videos and I will keep on watching!
I've been watching Ren reactors for almost two years now. You're definitely something special... subbed, and here for your new road trip!! You're already a Renegade man, welcome to the cult!! 💜
PLEASE do: "How to be Me." The live one. That way you can add Chinchilla to your list, plus it's AMAZING!! Illest of Our Time, Genesis, The Hunger for his rapping. I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop (needs to be the one with the red suspenders), War Pigs, Englishman in New York, What Kind of Woman is This, Bongo Bong for his old band The Big Push. Blind Eyed (M.C. sessions first, then ABSOLUTELY do the Angry Car-park Attendant version for the funniest "anything and everything go wrong" music video EVER) ...
Or just throw darts at a list on the wall, lol! It's ALL incredible, you really can't go wrong! Just make ABSOLUTELY SURE you get to Seven Sins. Holy crap that one is amazing!! And he's soooo proud of that one, rightfully so!! Just have fun, it's all incredible!!!
Im sure someones probably already said it but this is 1 take live performance with multiple cameras for the angles. He only had 4 tries due to time constraints to get it
Great reaction man 👍 Ren !!!! You're done 😂 Tremendous artist, song writer, beatboxer, musician, poet, story teller, producer and he's an Independent artist , he produces his own songs and makes his own beats... The rabbit hole is deep wide and full of masterpieces, you're gonna love it for sure 😉 More Ren please ! Thanks 😘
Your in for a voyage of discovery, already know you will enjoy it...when the Renegade's get to hear about you, you'll be swamped by them🕳️🐰
I make music with UK artists as well so yall share the video around let's get these #Renegades to sub cuz im down for a rabbit hole 💯
Another renegade popping in to welcome you to the rabbit hole. I recommend "sick boi" and "I shot the sheriff - the big push" ( Ren sings and playing in the band " The Big Push". Looking forward to another reaction. Much love and may the tide rise.
Welcome to the world of Ren! Great reaction! It is especially satisfying to watch someone who knows what it takes truly appreciating what Ren is bringing to the table.❤ Be assured that all the recommendations you will receive are proper and lead to the many amazing facets of this diamond. My two cents: if you want experience storytelling at its finest ...do check out "The Tale of Jenny and Screech (the whole13+ min version) ...If you want to hear some impressive bars...don't miss "The Hunger" ....if you want something a little more R&B...can't do better than "Back On 74/Message in a Bottle - retake".... You are going to have some fun my friend!!! Enjoy! ✌
Bro cheers for this reaction 🙌 & I too still after a year of listening to this get chills when I hear that line "losen the noose on the rope" 😢👊👌 he is a genius!!
Welcome into the Renegade world.
Since you are a rapper, his song murderer will definitely be one of your favorites. He spits absolute bars in that song.
Seriously Bro... he can RAP RAP, Sing, Act, Perform, he does it all!!!
Don't overlook his band The Big Push, or the Many duets, or his older works!
The one thing you Can count on is... Being surprised! SHOCKED really! He'll make a grown man cry too... his lyrics are that Deep!
Seriously... Ya Gotta do more!
Don’t forget that he makes most of his beats, is a true producer, and a humble guy.
@@Jason-Burk This... Yes!!!! Those of us who know his older works too... even the lyric videos... show his production mastery!!!
Canadian Renegade here brother!! Ren's talent is unmatched in this day and age. Great reaction! The Renegades are here! 🤘🤘You're gonna love deep diving for months with all of his catalogue.
I so love finding new Hi Ren reactions, especially as you really "got it." Enjoy your Ren journey. He's phenomenal.
Rennnnnnnn 🎉
Renegades are here bro it's all about love with us as u will see !❤
There is a new drop of the BTS for Hi Ren. I think it was posted today. Worth a watch to see how he recorded this live.
Welcome in, Renegades are ALL about support.
So, of course I subbed.
Ren is an AMAZING artist.
I am REALLY looking forward to being part of your journey.
You have one INCREDIBLE day.

Love your input and opinion on a musical piece of fine art …
"She sells sea shells on the sea shore" refers to Money Game Pt. 2, another of his trilogies.
Fantastic reaction man. You got a sub from this Renegade. Can't wait to share your journey down the rabbit hole.
You've just witnessed the first Bard-core, Rap opera.
New sub here from Arizona, I'm here for any and all Ren reactions. As a 54 year old music lover my whole life, Ren has reconfigured my mind for the better and REN-EWED my heart & soul by making me really hear music for the 1st time in my life! Thank you for the great reaction! What an amazing journey awaits you! 😁
Ren-vigarated for 70 year old here in 🇬🇧
When you start reacting to Ren songs you're going to get a giant influx of Renegades watching, liking, sharing and subscribing. And you will find that we don't care how long the video gets if it's a decent, thoughtful breakdown. Seriously, we will watch videos that run over an hour if it's good, so don't let run time stop you on a Ren song, trust me.
Yo bro, REN is a ARTISTICAL GENIUS. He did this on just One Take. great reaction, love it Need to check out Angelina Jordan, we fans are crazy loyal and know everything about her. You will be welcomed down the rabbit HOME ☮️❤️
You are in for nany treats! Any song you choose will be good.
Drop them requests maybe a Rap heavy one? I've done plenty of music with UK artists so I rock with the whole lot 💯
@@esstvgangRap rap REN- "THE HUNGER", OR "LOSING IT" #RENEGADES SUBBED
@@esstvgang Wicked Ways is one of my favorite rap songs. Genesis and The Hunger, and Power are great too. If you're a Beasty Boys fan, What You Want pays homage and it's loads of fun. Losing It is crazy.
Great reaction. You have NO IDEA how deep this rabbit hole goes. Ren can quite literally do it ALL. Absolute Shakespearean levels of talent and versatility that could very well lead to him standing among the greatest that have ever been. And I do not say that lightly.
To top it all off… he’s an exceptionally good and decent human being. A gem. I’ll be here for your Ren journey. Subbed! ☮️♥️
Thank you for giving your time to Ren. Big love from the UK
Great reaction. Subbed.
Hopefully you watched the full thing 🤟
Beginning of the art of this song: it's so darn long!
End of this masterpiece: why is it so short! I MUST have MORE! 😅
Yup, we’re not a cult no matter what they tell you!
Astounding reaction, this is a masterpiece!! Thank you!!
Im so pumped you're diving down the Ren rabit hole ❤❤❤ PLEASEE MORE REN❤❤❤
For crazy bars check out heretic, money game,
For amazing collab singing check out chalk outlines, how to be me with chinchilla,

I've watched Rens video a million times, I've watched a thousand reactions... you hit the nail on the head brother.... you get it... you have a new subscriber from the uk...
I love watching people find Ren. You are in for a beautiful ride. Ren is something so special that he can not be put into a genre. Here for the journey. ❤
Chalk Outlines, The Hunger, The Big Push (Rens band). Sooo many great songs.. Once you've gone down the Ren rabbit hole you'll never be the same again.
I will say, one thing that is over looked because it is a hindsight thing with this song is the increased tension between the two mindsets. The darkness ramps up each time the light pushes back until the last section when his voice softens and he doesn’t interrupt and waits to give his words. It is a reflection of the end where he is talking to us directly and he even says he had to learn to do that. The light at the end became more fluid in words and emotions and eases the tension. It is absolutely insane how much talent Ren has and how uplifting he is while also being able to flex all these skills he has self taught. 1 take, live video? That is beyond insane! Ren is a very rare talent that comes into the world randomly. ❤
Its never too late to discover someone that can give you chills on multiple levels. Good luck on your Ren rabbit hole journey.
Dark ren takes charge in kujo beatdown. To remind kuji how good this man is .
I saw this video at my lowest point, I´d given up dealing with my illness, distanced myself from my family and friends, all in preperation for not being here no more. That moment he stood up from the chair, I burst out in tears and decided I would stand up for myself, continue existing. It´s a struggle every day, but I cherish Ren for this awakening of mine, I still tear up seeing this performance, reviews of this performance. I truly believe art created from the heart has healing in it, this did so for my in any case.
Yep I’m subbing!! ❤
🔥🔥🔥
.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.
Ren is 33 from Anglesey, Wales originally but spent most his adult life in Brighton, England. He has been very ill for years, at one point being completely bed ridden. He was misdiagnosed for years, being told he was bipolar, had M.E and more and was prescribed medications that made him worse and ended up in psychosis. It turns out Ren had Lyme disease which has caused havoc on his body. 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 that were caused by the Lyme disease.
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. 🖤

Yeah he did say Plan B, he is an artist and he is awesome. His concept album The Defamation of Strickland Banks is a classic and I would imagine was an influence on Ren, as was Eminem. Great reaction. Ren is extraordinary. I don’t think I have admired an artist more. I’m looking forward to seeing your Ren journey. Subbed ❤️
This information gives you some background on Ren and puts much of his music and performance art in perspective. I gathered the information from old newspaper interviews, articles, and Ren's public livestreams and posts. All the information here was gathered exclusively from sources Ren personally approved for public release.
Ren is a Welsh independent artist/singer/songwriter/busker/producer, living in Brighton, UK. He plays multiple instruments (acoustic, electric, and bass guitar, piano, melodica, drums, cello), has impressive vocals, beatboxes, produces all his own beats, is an excellent storyteller, and is quite the philosopher and poet. He is considered by many a modern-day bard; he once jokingly called his music "bardcore" and it stuck.
Ren's music videos are frequently recorded live using a lavalier mic, often in a single take, although not necessarily the first take, and from various camera angles. In the case of the music video performance of "Hi Ren," it took four takes, all live in the room, to get the footage he wanted. "Sick Boi," is almost another chapter to "Hi Ren" and appears to have been filmed in the same room. Ren also has a live version of “Hi Ren” that was recorded in front of an audience.
Ren has been creating great music for more than ten years. Many of Ren's songs resonate with people because he addresses struggles that many others face every day. Deservedly so, in October 2023, Ren album “Sick Boi” hit #1 on the UK Billboard album charts. Every RENegade should listen to this beautiful and moving poem/spoken word tribute to Ren's accomplishment of hitting #1 on the UK album charts. It is from a young artist by the name of Sonny Saxton, and he skillfully weaves many of Ren's song titles and lyrics into his poem. I hope Ren will notice and watch it. Here is the link; well worth everyone’s time. ruclips.net/video/Kkp3B-x6-Io/видео.html&lc=UgwmBUMbXrER6Mx4WwJ4AaABAg.9w8dqTD6k0V9wAM4gBoRW3
Ren pursued a career in music from an early age. In 2009, while studying music performance at Bath Spa University, he 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 has spend the last 1 ½ years in Calgary, Canada, undergoing treatment for Lyme Disease and other medical conditions brought on by the disease, such as Mast Cell Activation Disorder (MCAD), which has affected the myelin sheath in his brain, his thyroid, and adrenals as well as his bones/joints.
Ren hit #1 on the UK Billboard Album Charts last October. Check out and subscribe to his channel; if you are a content creator, ask your audience to subscribe to Ren's channel. Let’s help make Ren a household name.
Loved your reaction… he is just a genius! Go down the Ren rabbit hole… his story has brought him to the next level of artist… love love love him

Do a get a full view of Ren and the story of his life, go through the Chapters on his channel. Maybe not for reaction, but to get the full picture of who he is and the challenges he faced and still faces.
Plan B made one of the great UK albums "The Defamation of Strickland Banks" But I would tell you to check out the track "Ill Manors" You won't regret it!
2 stages of watching Hi Ren
Stage 1: Holy sh*t this a 9 minute song, so i wont pause too much
Stage 2: F**k it, this is gonna be a 30 minute video.
We dont care if you pause.. it means youre getting it.
The video was done in only 4 takes(severL cameras) ad the audio used is from the orignal take,it hasnt been spliced together and edited in that way.
So happy you are discovering Ren. He is an incredible artist. He has several of these "art piece" type songs that are just masterpieces. And also a lot of more typical music. He does everything, and it's all good. I'll be watching for more.
everybody gets chills at the same time…. and for a reason. i’ve heard this song a 100 times and still do. i think that lyric hits so many of us a deeply personal way in our darkest memories
I've Been following Ren for a few years now, i still get a thrill from watching people discover his Genius, great reaction Sir.
🌋🌋🌋 reaction!! Like bees to honey, the Renegades come buzzing in to watch the Ren reactions! Most of us started with Hi Ren, then discovered that there's gold in Ren's music no matter which way you go from there. He's one of the few artists I've ever encountered who is consistently top-shelf from song to song. Look forward to more of your Ren reactions (which also includes his band The Big Push and multiple collaborations: Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, Chris Webby, Prof, Eden Nash and many more).
This video is pure genius! Welcome to the Renegade family!!!!
