On the dole, means on welfare. And counsel house, means public housing in the US. So he’s telling us he grew up poor and stressed. And that guy driving the car, that’s Sam, Ren’s phenomenal cameraman for all his videos! Ren turned 33yrs old in March of this year!
I think you will also like his songs with his band The Big push, so many good covers, I shot the sheriff/road to Zion/ Hip hop, War pigs, Wade in the water, Bongo Bong (Manu Chao cover) so many more songs to react to!
I’ve heard him use the phrase “it is what it is” multiple times. I can attest that the older you are, the more you learn to rest in that truth re: things in the past or that simply can’t be changed. I believe that is a little bit of what Ren meant when he said in Hi Ren he learned to relax and the dance got easier.
If you like his throwbacks, check out his song “1990s” … it’s so much fun! Also, the guy driving is his film buddy Samuel Perry-Falvey, who filmed “Hi Ren,” “Chalk Outlines,” “Tale of Jenny & Screech” and others.
Great reaction. In a few tracks he sets dark topics to major-chord up beat melodies (like the refrain in Chalk Outlines, sounds like a conclusion to his situation sonically, but the lyrics are about sinking further). This one tho isn't just a dark theme to light tune, it's about redemption and sanctuary through music, which given his gift makes a lot of sense
One of the things I love about ren is how he puts catchy upbeat beats to heavy topics. It helps cause most people don't want to talk about heavy hitting taboo topics. By putting that upbeat sound you get people to listen. 😊

@@zack_reacts yes he does 😅 My take on the Noah lines from Genesis - "Noah was late for the arc / Genesis, rain and it rains when it starts / Genesis, pain in the art / Genesis, aim for the heart / Genesis" - This biblical allusion to Noah and Genesis suggests a desire for rebirth or a new beginning. The recurring 'Genesis' signifies creation, hinting at Rens longing for a fresh start or a transformative experience to overcome his struggles.
I love how you explain every fricken line to us like we don't speak English...you do know I have ears and a basic grasp on the language. You need to cut that shit out.

Great reaction! Since you asked, he's 33, it was his bday when he released Illest of Our Time at the end of March.

Another great reaction! The more I listen to each Ren track, the more it grows on me. Power has become one of my favorites by him.

Good call on the nostalgia song - add in “What you want” - a great Beastie Boy tribute.
@@sputukgmail I never thought anyone could out-Beastie the Beasties but Ren does it with ease! 💜🎵

Sweetheart, YOU are the New "Radio Station" of this generation and Independent Artists. ROFL!!!
The way you sung I think the bass line reminded you of "Come as you are" by Nirvana
One of the things I love about ren is how he puts catchy upbeat beats to heavy topics. It helps cause most people don't want to talk about heavy hitting taboo topics. By putting that upbeat sound you get people to listen. 😊
Power!!! This is one of my favourite Ren songs!! Loving the vibe!!!
Totally relate to your reaction and love your interpretation. Subscribed. Looking forward to more!
Lol, he looks young but he just turned 33. He released a song--Illest of our Time, I think--on his 33rd birthday this year.
That’s his camera man driving from all his 1 take ren strikes again videos…
Deep and fun! Playing this gem in the car daily!❤

Awesome, Thanks!
I would suggest listening to Money Game pt 1 and 2 back to back - part 1 has its own impact and it works best as an intro to the riff in pt 2.
Humble has quickly become my favorite Ren song. I need more Eden Nash too. That song is a whole vibe of its own ❤
2 mobile phones you get this… fire.
3:35 same!
Ren is now 33. ❤
I know. 🙂 thanks
Fire track! Filmed on 2 iPhones. The driver is Sam Perry-Falvey who is Rens videographer 🖤
🔥🔥
Ren is 33. 😊
Looks good for 33!! Thanks!
@@zack_reacts yes he does 😅

The baseline you are thinking of might be Seven Nation Army?
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Ren heretic
I second this. SUCH a good song!
REN Is Too Good For Radio, And The Charts Are Jack Shit.
I love how you explain every fricken line to us like we don't speak English...you do know I have ears and a basic grasp on the language. You need to cut that shit out.
I just watched your reaction. Good luck on your journey. Best advise- ignore haters. :) Have a great day!
@@zack_reacts Now that is solid advice! Well played
