ORIGINAL VIDEO • Ren - Troubles 
Развлечения
Ren legit did cut a hole in his chest by finding a TV in an alley and kept smashing it. Took a piece from the broken TV with him home to cut a hole in his chest. Line hits hard because it's true. He mentioned that in his "Missing" Chapters on RenMakesStuff.
I think he cut himself right there on the street… But yes, he talks about it in one of his chapters.
Nice reaction as always 👍 Moby sampled this but the original singer is Vera Hall, a black woman who lived in the US in the 1940's. Ren said that this song is very important for him and on IG we saw how he turned the hook on synth and all the process, that was fire ! Thanks 😘
The fact that he turned the sample into that sick synth is gold!
@@YinAught yeah it is 😉😘
👍commenting for the algorithm (always like your reactions).
You stop calling me black and I'll stop calling you white - Morgan Freeman on how we get past race.
@@gavinwilson2071 I agree, but this is because she was a black woman in that time that she had to suffer so much and experienced racism. This is the reason why she wrote that song, Troubles. And this is why I had to clarified that she was a black woman because it matters 😉
According to Ren, this song brings a full stop to the Sick Boi album. From here on, he is going a different direction with his music…for the next album.
Im guessing today must be one of those "Is this all there is to my life, having to keep strong & keep going for my kids" you once spoke of. Hang in there AR, it may feel so now but life is never static & people & events can come into your life and things move in a different trajectory. If things can change for Ren, when he was contending with so much, they can for you too. Just keep treading water meanwhile until those life "rafts" come along - you're doing a great job. HOPE 🙏
The bubbly sound is the same sample put through filter and other techniques. There is a short on his channel showing how he did.
He also did 8 Video story of his 8 year nightmare. He is doing it as a resource for hope for those who are still in the darkness of illness.
He's got 2 collabs Webby and Prof. Next album almost done ..song based, called Slaughterhouse. He could not care less about what others think. He has oceans of creativity waiting to come out. Plus he still wants to do the Netflix series.
AR. I saw troubles by Ren has surpassed 1 million views on this song. Hope everyone buyi g and downloading to get him popping on #1 aim. Lets go everyone!!!
Thanks for reacting to this! Hope you're well. You seem not your usual playful self.
Ren has a short video on creating that cool audio effect you like. It might be just on his Patreon channel.
Much love to you and your family 🙋♀️💖
He made the sample into a synth. So cool. It’s the bouncy scratching sound.
Between 2017-18 I was going through a deep depression to which almost led to self-termination, music was my outlet to get me through on a daily basis. The artist that I listened to the most was Chris Cornell, the day he passed that really f'd me up, I thought "if someone like him who had everything couldn't stay, what are my chances?" Fast forward to now, I appreciate Ren bc his music is therapeutic for those struggling.
Chris Cornell was great. Sad he got to such a low point. Glad you got through yours. Music really is a life saver
💙 Chris Cornell
Commitment to Hope. That is Ren's gift to us in this song.
It’s Vera Hall. He bought the song from the estate. Moby did it as well. Not sure if he added to Moby version or just mixed the original. What’s the benefit of disability it’s irrelevant. He added guitar and his vocals. She grew up in a slave family and and he said he can’t relate to her struggles but the line nobody can judge me but God he can relate too and had a big impact on his life. Disability benefits is what you can’t work, but they give you a fracture of your pay until you’re better unless you’re on permanent disability and then you’re pretty much screwed or basically just above the poverty line. Anyone disabled would give back the little money they get to be healthy. Almost anybody. Of course there are some scammers. Well said about his heart and fan base. He’s a Real one. I guarantee you he tops it. He has a number one album in the UK and will top the billboard charts in the US in the next few years. The man has done this while being sick as a dog and has more talent than anyone I’ve seen since prince. He’s like prince and Lauryn hill had a baby! Anyone who doubts this man is a fool. And that Jordan bulls throwback is FIRE! It’s no coincidence, he’s wearing the greatest NBA players jacket of all time. 6 out of 6 championships with 6 finals MVP. That’s symbolic. And the other jacket Hollywood spit me out! Sony regrets it now dont they?
He mixed it himself-nothing to do with Moby’s. Popping sounds are also mixed from the original sample.
I don't think Moby paid for the sample so Ren to lengths to make sure it was bought ethically.
There's an Insta post where Ren is showing him mixing the Vera Hall audio and even condensing it to the "wibble" sound we hear throughout- was amazing to watch
What would Sony regret? Firstly they had no choice because Ren couldn’t meet his end of the deal so he walked away, and funding a non performing artist from the age of 19 to 33 would make it impossible for them to ever recover those costs, unless REN’s career turns out to have a longevity similar to Tom Jones. ( which actually isn’t as nuts as it might at first sound).
There is a moral question because if Sony were funding an incapacitated artist for years, they’ve got a limited budget so that would be depriving another artist or artists of their shot, which would be morally dubious at best.
Plus if SONY had not released him, we would not have the “Independent Rapping Rebel” we now treasure! ;)
The 8 Chapters are very detailed, raw and sometimes funny. No need to react to them, they are very personal. But please watch them and be a witness. They are REALLY worth it . He wrote them to spread understanding and hope for those so sick like he was
AR, please watch those 8 videos.
He bought the copyright to reimagi e it in his unique way. Said expensive but worth it.
The song of HOPE. Ren is a pure genius. Nothing but bangers!
You listen to rens Chapters yet? Missing. 8 of them now. His life's story.
Yes! The chapters are on “ RenMakesStuff” all released leading up to this release which imo is the soundtrack to his story. Absolutely a must watch to fully appreciate both Ren as a human being and artist. A MUST WATCH…CAPTIVATING🔥
I think ‘troubles’ can apply to anyone going through any kind of dark phase so many people should be able to relate to it, if they listen
#ren #troubles #verahall #lymedisease 💗
Ren deserves all the success & happiness in the world ❤️
He is our inspirational angel of hope 🖤❤️🖤
With great power comes great responsibility, and Ren is truly a hero! He is using his growing powers and platform for so much more than simply creating brilliant music. Ren has said that he always had this feeling that he was meant to change the world for the better. So much that he defiantly yelled a challenge to evil into an empty room. And then he got sick…
Ren has now shared the full story of his health journey in 8 video chapters leading up to the release of this song and what a journey it has been. If anyone hasn’t already watched them, I highly recommend you do. With all the chapters he is showing immense strength in sharing his story that is so hard to tell, being vulnerable and telling it because he hopes it will help others and raise awareness. And here he is with another rendition of that story, now told through music with a fire beat and delivering a message of hope. A beautiful hero that the world needs ❤️🐰🕳️
You all good man? Dont seem your usual self , hope all's good 😎🤘
I remember on one of his other Ren reactions he shared how he struggles sometimes doing the day in, day out daily grind, being a single dad and having to keep going for them when he's thinking "Is this it, is this all there is to my life" and that hit hard. I guess today could be one of those days...
@@Veeliscious i must of missed all that, or its my bad memory, thanks for the info
Are you ok, Anthony? ❤ You seem a little down. Hugs! I was wondering when you'd get to Ren, been waiting for your reaction to this!

@@Veeliscious Sounds like an excuse for his attacking of fans to me... "I think you all think I just sit around thinkin what's Ren doin, what's Ren doin..."
He showed some real colors there. MAJOR hateraide vibes. Massively fake. "I love Ren hes SO SICK". Unsub for me
There's a very good documentary on the DC Documentary channel called "Lyme disease and the fight for recognition" in it they talk to people who suffer from it.
And it's everything that Ren says.
Hearing & seeing what people go through is very moving. And how hard it is just to get recognition that chronic Lyme disease is a real thing. I highly recommend watching it.
For anybody that wants to know more about it.
After having listened to Ren's Chapter Series Intently and multiple times, this track just encapsulates his story so well and serves as musical accompaniment for The Chapters. Ren's experiences are very familiar to me to say the least, as is often the case with many of his supporters. Ren's success is so deserved and I do truly hope it continues. Ren is the medicine many of us need. So raw and vibrant in color, combined with his naturally emotive performance! Indeed Ren....Your Limo has finally arrived. This in my mind one of the best lyrical raps ever written and performed. Yes Ren, you have raised the bar!
That sound was actually the sample twirked
Had to duck out of the live because my dog was being a little isht, so just rewatching this one now. You're spot on about the slightly old school feel too this one. It feels like he was still in his Nas vibe when writing this one. That era, at least.
I really hope this one charts. If it does it will be such good publicity for these causes. ❤ Thanks for reacting to it, it was nice to be there when you did!

This is link to short showing how Ren created synth from the original sample from Vera Hall.
Good reaction - as usual! 😁❤️
PS Disco Doc has done a really interesting video about Vera Hall and how her music has been used - worth watching!!
He did this on his own!!
He has him mixing it on his own.
If you haven’t seen them watch the chapters he released. Probably more on your own, They hit hard.
He said he used Verna Hall.
I think he used the Moby too.
That beat is totally him playing on the mix.
"Likkle men love to speak, I don't lose sleep in the whispers of sheep." -Ren
Woke up to see this reaction. Thank you Anthony.💕👍🦇
Troubles is so good it makes me cry he went through so much physical and mental pain which caused him to lose years of his life because of Doctor's. How many people are suffering because their not getting the help they need is so horrible. Not being tested for Lyme disease is as bad as doctor's saying cancer! no! we don't have cancer in the United States!! Ren is such a gift he is the light of hope he is the strongest and bravest. Ren is a master of talent he is absolute incredible man. I Love you Ren God Bless Always
Sending love & hope to you AR, you will find your smile again ❤
Thank you for reacting to Troubles, the production on that gem of a sample is epic 👏👏
Moby sampled Vera Hall without giving her credit. Ren gives her credit.
Thanks AR. Appreciate you 🙏
Hey Anthony, we all appreciate you and what you do. Hope you're doing well mentally and taking care of you. 💗
Thanks, Anthony, for the reaction. I see this as a PSA for all those people out there suffering with various conditions. In an of itself, this is not my favorite. But I would actually listen to this regularly. It has that underlying track that he has manipulated considerably to generate a unique beat. Ren tells us the story of his life in a few minutes. This also tracks the Chapters series. Ren is genius. There is a youtube short that shows Ren creating that funky sound you mentioned.
He made a lil short about how he got that sound you were talking about. Same loop played,sped up,through a filter and some shit. It's worth checking out.
Anthony you good man? You know you are a Renegade favourite and webbeen waiting for your breakdown. You and Knox are the bombs for me.
"I think you all think I just sit around thinkin what's Ren doin, what's Ren doin..." He's a closet hater and a massive fake. Unsub for me
Squeeky sound is actually the trouble so hard sample....highly manipulated. The patreon BTS he shows more about this production
Thank you Anthony! He is meant for greater things!!
Listening to this I d bet a pound to a penny that Ren produced this because it’s very much got his musical signature on it.
I think the vast majority of reactors fully grasp the depths of REN’s penmanship and his musical creativity but there is a valid argument to be made that of all his talents, maybe his production skills are top trumps. I’m not sure this aspect is so widely understood.
You’re right, with ‘Hi Ren’, Ren popped off on YT and into much of the public consciousness but the fact is he’s an over-night success, who’s been 20 years in the making. His musical career started some 20 plus years ago when he began teaching himself how to produce when he was 12.
REN- TROUBLES
[Intro: Vera Hall]
Ooh Lordy, troubles so hard
Repeating
[Verse]
I don't reach into the past very much
For these shards of shattered glass and harsh paper cuts
Leave me stuck when I reach in memories are seeped in hydrochloric acid
I go to war and get passive and freeze up
But music helped the ice to thaw
Put a chisel in the middle swing the hammer of Thor
Pull it out of the impossible, excalibur sword
Etching note pads full of reasons why my feelings arе sore
The first day that I got sick ejеcted from cockpit of living
Nineteen, young teen, waking up bitten
Posters up, manhunt, Ren went missing
Hard to have faith when the gods don't listen
The first year maybe was the hardest
Waking in a body that was buried like a carcass
Brain in the lions den, body in a shark pit
Waking up in pain again, aching, brokenhearted
Persistent little bugger I was bouncing from a doctor
To a doctor to a doctor like a table tennis game that has no end
So be the fate of Ren
Every single question answered with a question on the end
The second year I came to terms with giving up my dreams
Mind was severed from the means that helped me write these rhyme schemes
Brain was inflamed. the fatigue was crushing
Hard to remain sane with your brain combusting
And the third year was murder, living in a purga-
Tory full of worry, wouldn't live to be thirty
Lifestyle hurt me, always in my bed tomb
Re-arrange the alphabet and all the letters spell "doom"
Light hurt my eyes, popping pills to survive
When you're twenty-three and mentally you steadily decline
Twenty-four I was poor, disability benefits
What's the benefit of disability? It's irrelevant
Twenty-five and the scars that were etched, they cracked
Elastic bands only stretch so far and then snap
Deep in psychosis, hallucinations, troubled vision
Visits from the underworld were conjuring my superstition
Twenty-five, living back at home with my mum
But not because I'm a bum, alone and physically done
So thin, so frail, so weak I'd become
And my skin so pale, never kissed by the Sun
One time I carved a whole in my chest, just to feel
I wish that was a metaphor, the struggle was real
When you're living in a holocaust you buckle and kneel
There's relief in the teeth of the kiss of cold steel
Facts, twenty-six I'm highly medicated and the pain sophisticated
While I'm laying broke and naked on my back
I brought my microphone into my coffin, started droppin'
Raw thoughts with the grim reaper knocking on the track
Then man, lo and behold
I heard an angel beckon on this treacherous road
Was a stem cell doctor with a generous glow
And a cell transplant brought me out of the cold
And my skin got younger and my body got stronger
And my stomach felt hunger for a door that was closed
And my soul heard music for the first time
Beauty was a word I'd use for this gift of gold
Oh Lord, I forgive you, Lord I forgive you
Lord, I forgive you, make me whole
This music I give you, pain that I live through
Everything I've been through is yours to hold
Thank you 🖤 AR 🤍 for your 🐷 Ren - Troubles reaction! #ren #verahall #troublesohard #troubles #slaughterhouse #calgary
Awesome reaction as always 🙏 I think we're just seeing a glimpse of Rens capabilities, musically. There's no genre he can't do. Rap to rock to reggae and piano too. Keep well brother 🙏🙏
For those who haven't yet... ya Gotta watch his 8 chapters describing what he lived thru! (Must watch his life story, in 8 chapters, in his Troubles playlist!)
His lyrics are Truly His Story... clawed at the laminate... I mean Come On Man!!!
Great reaction AR. Hope you’re ok.
Ren should and will do what Ren does. Same with AR. No one can do you better than you. ❤
He’s a lyrical genius! 👏🏼👏🏼😭🫶🏼
The bars going from ‘ice’ to the ‘Hammer of Thor’ ( Hammer of Thaw) is so damn clever!
Great breakdown and generous content. I loved to see the cheeky Ren Smile when the Limo pulled up in the background of the shoot to photobomb the scene 🎬. Peace and Love from Australia
The sample ''Oh God trouble so hard'' is from the original Vera Hall, a slave daughter from Louisiana. @DiscoDoc mad a full historic background of it, realy worth watching.
Been waiting for your reaction to this!! Great reaction!
Appreciate you AR, wish you all the best❤😊
You are one of my top favorite reactors. Great, thoughtful reaction. Agree with all you said. I really want that sick boi sweat too! Hope all is well with you. 💙💙💙
Love you Anthony. Love Ren, too. Appreciate all that you do. Keep up your Great Work!
sample is from Vera Hall "trouble so hard"
Nice reaction, Anthony! 👍🏼❤️
Great reaction as always 👌
Thank you, AR! Have a great day!
Great reaction AR ❤
This is his full stop song to end the Chapters….raw…emotional 🔥🤍🏴
Thanks, Anthony, the sample Ren use was Vera Hall Trouble So Hard ,, it is an old spiritual my Dad had a few tracks by he when he passed This was amazing I had goose bumps Ren shines on this hope this charts he deserves to
For the algorithm. ---- Great reaction!
Ren did a yt short in which he shows how he makes that sound sample that sounds like a guitar/voice...
It is actually the same sample from Vera Hall, but he puts some effect on it. It is as simple as genius!
I love Ren's Workt of Art! This guy really is special! I do not say that easily. But I think and hope that even my grandchildren talk about him!
🔥 good job brother.. head up👍✌️
Thanks AR, appreciate you. (You look like you need some sleep, hang in there.)
🔥🔥🔥reaction, as always, mate! Pipxx
It is so god to se him smile a little,it is very difficult to got rid of TBE,specilly when it has gone so far,but hes much better😊
The beat is fantastic
Nice reaction ❤ We all know ren gives us hope xx
Edit: I'VE BEEN VIBING TO THIS SONG SINCE ITS RELEASE!!
I think Ren will concentrate on concept albums and songs..creating stories...think like jenny and screech and dominoes and money game.. I hope he does some rock stuff.
How's your sleep, AR? Take care of ya, okay?!
AR you are a nice guy.
Hope you are doing ok… Ren is Hope.Thanks Anthony! 🫶🏻
It’s not a sample from Moby, but the same sample Moby used.
Ren did it all himself just using that sample from Vera Hall
He did a short on how he made the guitar sound, it's actual words broke into just sounds
Check out Rens short on how he made this beat! Genious Level!!!
Moby Sampled the song, it is originally done by "Vera Hall" and called "Troubles So Hard". Check her out.
Got a like simply for trolling Honeybane... Its so fucking lame to threaten to leave, just leave and shut up...
Your respect for art is wonderful to see 😊
Beautiful comments as usual from you ✌️✌️❤️
I think Ren has that many layers he can easily mix it up and develop over time new styles. If he was just rap, for example, then he could well stop.
You are a nice person Anthony,don't put yourself down,you are a cutie pie ❤
the differance between ren and lets say eminem or 50 cent is they are just one genera artists. ren does so much more than one so with such diverse generas he has more wiggle room to have even greater song possible without getting pidgeonholed into bettering just one. imo.
💯
Ren is the Angel of Hope to those of us suffering with different illnesses etc… #Hope
You okay AR?
Miss you mann
"Respect the pen." - Ren's writing ranks him among literary greats like Wilde, Byron, Poe and Keats. -- I would like to see Ren publish a book of his lyrics. (AR, Thanks for the reaction and sharing your thoughts.)
I love Ren but come on, let's not overdo it.
@@kuolemanlaakso1696 I genuinely believe this is not an exaggeration. When you scrutinize the linguistic structures and contexts, Ren's work stands shoulder to shoulder with literary greats. Exceptional artistry often defies our temporal expectations, leading to its dismissal.
Ren's oeuvre exemplifies contemporary significance and uniqueness. History celebrates such moments, and those who witness them often draw parallels to iconic events like The Beatles on Ed Sullivan, Hendrix's performances, and MJ's moonwalk at the Grammys.
I assert that his lyrics are on par with the literary titans mentioned. With musical accompaniment considered, Ren's artistry approaches the stature of Dylan.
P.S. I am not alone in this view. The late Sinead O'Connor remarked about Ren and "Hi Ren": "Every song and artist in history, from Willie Dixon to Chuck Berry, The Beatles, NWA, Ice Cube, and even Bob Dylan, is relegated to class B. Likewise, every actor in history, legend, living or dead, male or female, is now defunct." - Sinead O'Connor
A lot off people are now listening to his older work/albums, there's a mixed variety of music to suit different people
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
#hope
Cool reaction dude, you not looking too cheerful at the moment...u ok? What a great message of hope for those struggling!
Hope ❤
My only "make this song" request I will ever have for Ren is for him and Elizabeth from The Charasmatic Voice to do a cover of Libera me From Hell from Gurren Lagan 😅
🔥🔥🔥🐐👑👑🐐🔥🔥🔥
Moby sampled as well😂
If the Honey Bane AR mentioned is from The Fatal Microbes - You Legend
Great for us
💜💜💜
music helps the ice to thaw, put the chisel in the middle swing the hammer of thawr.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
❤❤❤
👍❤️
Commenting for algo 😉
Moby sampled it as well
❤
