Just know that WE HAVE BEEN LISTENING … and are both EXCITED to listen/react/break down these influxes of new songs and videos suggested by ALL OF YOU 🔥. Please be patient as these videos take time and unfortunately KZfaq is not our full time hustle yet, although soon it will be and we can invest more time into quality videos to come.

He has a ton of great rap I'm sure you'd be blown away by, but dont skip his other stuff as well. Its just as worthy of a listen. And the sickness wasn't a metaphor, he's been dealing with undiagnosed (until a couple years ago, but 10+ years of undiagnosed) Lyme Disease. Would love if you hit a few of his songs per reaction (I think a rap song + a nonrap song per video would be amazing, but thats just me), and DEFINITELY don't fuck up and do The Tales of Jenny/Screech/Violet trilogy in separate videos, its a connected story and you'll want to pay attention and follow along closely.

Keep in mind also, this was a ONE TAKE video. Multiple camera angles, Yes. He is famous for his one take vids. The "poem" was real. He has Lyme disease. Mis-diagosed and was treated for "mental issues" I am completely in love with REN, and am obsessed with Ren reactions. Also he appreciates his reactors. He frequently has commented on reactions to his stuff. He also has credited reactors, publically, with his success.

Yes, and he used religion in this song specifically to bring down the myth that mental health is driven by some kind of all-powerful supernatural being. When people who are suffering are lied to and told that it's some gargantuan supernatural power they can't have hope of fighting against, it makes everything worse. Ren brings it down to the human level, making it possible to defeat it.

@tenshimoon 4 ай бұрын

Yeah, not now anyway - he **did** say he actually believed in and followed christianity in the past during his lowest moments with his illness, and was so desperate to get better that he actually went to faith healers endorsed by whichever church(es) he went to. He even described an incident where, during a time his beliefs back then had him trying different things, that his brain told him to do something rather bizarre because he had the idea it would "work" for his healing (he also acknowledged that his psychosis played a role in some of his behaviours with trying certain things in the hopes of being healed). So regardless of what his beliefs are nowadays, this is actually another big reason why spiritual symbolism and imagery has played a huge role in his lyrics, and seems to continue to play a role, because of how his past beliefs have influenced him and his journey, and where he is now. He's representing a part of himself from his own past and the beliefs he at least had back then. He's also symbolically equating the devil with his negative, dark side and Jesus with his positive light side, and using that imagery of a spiritual battle between Good vs Evil to represent his own inner battles with himself and his 2 different sides (light vs dark). He even outright mentions this regarding the inner psychological warfare in his monologue at the end, when he spoke candidly about his inner battles between light and dark. I get the impression he's more agnostic now, or even simply spiritual and open-minded, sans religion.

@premeditatedplan5417 3 ай бұрын

I think the point of what Ren is saying is outside of Religion. Certainly religion is there as a metaphor. Given he is English hardly surprising. The use of the metaphor though is a means of communicating something that most of us have a shared 'understanding' of which is not the same as belief.

Some songs make more sense before others and some must go in order. The RENaissance is very passionate about REN and his artistry. If you want to get to know a bit more about him and his disease there are interviews and also a Million Subs video. Buckle up!!! Enjoy!!!

You guys are going to absolutely love Ren. He has no modern contemporaries. He truly is unique. He can do it all - multiple instruments, sing, rap, produces his own beats, directs all of his videos. He's a dynamo who also has a very touching backstory that makes all that he's done all that more impressive. Every song in his rather extensive catalog is great, truly great. He'll change the way you think about your own music - you'll want to push yourself to be better than maybe you thought possible. Enjoy the Ren roller coaster fellas. All the best

Oh look, some more people fell into the Ren rabbit-hole... welcome, take a seat, now look at the huge variety and depth of Ren's music and videos. Many are 'one take' - sometimes both music and video one take, sometimes just the video... but it's always so darn creative. Sometimes it's more lighthearted and fun, sometimes it's a full gut-punch. Ren has inspired many of us, and yes, helped a lot of people, with his open dialogue about mental health and Su*cide. And he is such a humble kid. I'm a middle age english woman, and I adore this lad. I'm sure your chat will direct you where to go next on the Ren journey, but I'm lost, there is just so much good stuff. The irony in 'Hi Ren' lyrics is the line about 'where is your top ten hit' - he actually ended up with No 1 Album in UK, when Sick Boi dropped late last year! I think it did pretty well in US too! Us 'RENegades' take it all very seriously :D It's a heck of a journey, enjoy the ride!

Welcome to the multitalented genius Ren. This masterpiece is just the tip of the iceberg. I trust that other RENegades will fill you in on his backstory and probably recommend Sick Boi for insight into his frustrations from being misdiagnosed for years. I will just add a suggestion to check out one of my personal favourites: Crutch feat. Bibi. It’s an older song from before Ren was finally correctly diagnosed and was written after a breakdown following multiple emergency trips to the hospital. It is heart wrenching and stunning. Also if you want to understand the man behind the art (and why we all love him so dearly), check out his 1m subscribers video on defining success. Ren is not just a brilliant artist but a genuinely good human being who wants to inspire positive change in the world. Hope to see you deep down the Ren rabbit hole with the rest of us 🐰🕳️

This is actually a one take, they shot multiple cameras at the same time. But they always played the song all the way through, they tried it numerous times before they got the one that they actually wanted. But what was filmed was filmed on the same performance from beginning to end.

@CreativePhotoWS 4 ай бұрын

@@joelmastrobattisto422 unfortunately that is incorrect. Watch carefully. You will see the mic appear and disappear on footage used from different takes and also his gown length variations. I train people to ‘see’ as a photographer for the last 40 years. For me those variations stand out. Even Ren himself said when they got home he thought they’d stuffed it and had nothing useful until he put it all together and showed Connor and his reaction to it made him know they had something that works. It doesn’t diminish the art of this song but saying this is footage from one single shoot through (also impossible as you can’t have a camera man standing up close and wide and the next second show a full length frame without the camera man in it) does diminish the effort involved in his actual one takes such as MG1

@loriculver7282 4 ай бұрын

You are the one who is wrong. There are numerous interviews with Ren and the director, Sam, that describe the making of the video. It is a live one take. They did four takes before they got kicked out of the building. There are three cameras set up. The microphone is always there. It just moves around a bit and is under the guitar strap a bit. They took the best take of the music, and it is one take. They took the spoken word part from another of the four takes, and that is the only cut.

Generally, the interpretation was ok, but the religious slant was a miss. Ren tends to use it as a metaphor rather than "gospel". This performance relates to *HIS* "Demons" and his voyage out of *HIS* dark place. . Ref his line (often misheard) "Ferocious, persistent, immortal like you, we're a coin, minted different sides" . He faced up to himself.

You have just entered a massive rabbit hole, welcome to the RENegades. Ren Gill is such a talented artist. His poetry and lyrics are amazing, he can sing, rap, play guitar, piano and a bit of drums. The best follow up song to this one would be Sick Boi. He was also in a band called The Big Push, they are amazing.

Sick Boi is a good one to check out after Hi Ren. It takes place in the same room and goes a step further, except in a totally different genre of music. Welcome to Ren.

Holy cow excellent reaction boys, you seem to pick up on Ren's message to the tee 😊. Im sure you will be given a specific order to follow by the Renigades but i do suggest listening to sick boy next, it is certainly a follow up to this one. Enjoy the rabbit hole boys ill be here for it 😂👍

Just subbed. I have seen a lot of reactions to this track, but this is one of my favourites. The best thing about Ren is that as an independent he isn’t constrained by what a label wants him to write, and as he seems to love all music, he is an incredibly diverse talent with an extensive back catalogue. The only thing you know with Ren is every time you listen to a new track, you have no idea what you are about to hear, but you know it’ll be good.

@joelshah-rao3010 4 ай бұрын

Bros great reaction and appreciation of musicality and the message! Rens story is a health battle where he was deathly sick. He is still getting medication in Canada. He's not really talking about God and the Devil but using it as a metaphor or narrative vehicle to talk about struggles mentally

This reaction, your reaction deserved a sub from me for sure. What a great reaction ❤. Ren is a master of his craft , from directing,producing writing, acting ,story telling, to rapping , singing , beatboxing he does it all. Our modern day bard is how i would explain Ren, there is no one out there like him. Even down to his features on some of his tracks are unbelievable, Sam tompkins, Chinchilla, Eden Nash, and we must not forget his band "big push". The tales of Jenny and Screech, and violets tales will capture you, if you decide to take the mission on it must be done in one, all three tales back to back , the trilogy. Ren has a very large catalogue of great music . His fans are called "Renegades ". He was born in wales u.k . Currently he is in Canada having treatment for limes disease, after being misdiagnosed for many years , doctors telling him the pain was in his head, this poor guy couldnt get out of bed for a long time,and still made music. . Its so sad, but he is on the up and is feeding us 5*** meals on a regular, new track dropping thursday this week. Thanks again for a great reaction. You really are in for a treat ❤ forgot to add he does alot of his video's in one take, yes you read that right "1 take" . 😁

@user-qj5lc8bm2m 4 ай бұрын

What a great reaction. You both are really good listeners and interpreting)breaking down the song also very intuitive. Ren is an independent Welsh artist from the country of Wales in the UK he has been suffering from Lyme's disease for 13 years and was misdiagnosed for many years which made him suffer from psychosis. He hits hard with many of his songs and collaborations. His songs can be controversial they always seem to stimulate conversation and reflection. He has some fun tracks but I think most of his introduction songs give you an idea where he is coming from eg sick boi. Thanks again to Ariel to putting you on to Ren and in turn it made me aware of yourselves. We Renegades are a very supportive Ren fan base and Ren is grateful to KZfaq reactors as he stated in his 1 mill subscribers live stream which is worth a watch too. He has also performed with his band The Big Push busking (live street performance for donations) on the streets of Brighton in England they are incredible too. Have fun in the Ren rabbit hole. Sending happy vibes from the UK 🎶🧡🔥👩‍🦰

First off, I have never seen your channel before. Second, I am a huge Ren fan. This was a fantastic, thoughtful breakdown of a piece of music that I don't think will be fully appreciated until decades later. Thanks, I really enjoyed it, and am now keen on checking out more of your stuff. As for the religious aspect. I believe that the way Ren leaves it ambiguous is one of the most impressive things about the songwriting on display here. If you happen to subscribe to a particular established ideology, then, great, interpret it to fit that ideology and enjoy; if you happen to surf on a more fluid and dynamic metaphysical belief-system, then, great, build your own adventure and enjoy. Either way, it's clear that he is referencing an incredibly relatable, human reaction to the state of living in this world. This is the root of great art.

Well done guys. Renegades will be here for you. I subbed. My 2 favorites are Seven Sins, a real masterpiece and Murderer, acoustic version. But whatever you direction you go will be magic. Ren us a beautiful soul and he uses his pkatform to shine lught in the place of darkness he came from with chronic physical and mental illness and constant pain. He has been getting treatment fir more than a year in Canada for the damage done to him by 7 years if undiagnosed Lyme disease and the mental illness caused by that ad well. Music is his religion.

Great reaction! I enjoyed watching how each series of lines hit you and sometimes even got you to howl. 😂 I'm coming at Ren's music from the perspective of an older musician, playing and singing since the 1960's. I have a "list" of about 16 favorite bands and artists, and Ren quickly hopped onto that list. After listening to the wide range of his artistry and talent (as you'll discover), I ended up putting him at the top. Look forward to your next Ren/The Big Push reaction! (The Big Push is a band he played with until he went to Canada to get treatment for his Lyme disease.) Subbed!

You gotta hear 'Losing It' , his retake on the EDM track by Fisher highlighting his rap and beat box skills! On the other hand you can't find a bad track by Ren. He's always different, original, insightful and so much careful planning goes into these videos, mostly done in one shot with his videographer Sam Perry-Falvey. Sometimes it's tears and sometimes just for fun. He always sets himself a challenge for each song; something that is purely acapella (Loco), a dirty song that they will play on the radio (Uninvited), a song that leaves people in tears (Jenny and Screech), a song/video that's completely filled with Easter eggs (Animal Flow), a song that asks people to change their lives (Money Game 1/2/3). Enjoy it all!

@rodgersmith6891 4 ай бұрын

Loved your reaction! I definitely think the next 2 songs you should do by him is "Sick boi" and "Genesis" (besides the official video for "Genesis" there is also a fire acoustic version ). Ren contracted Lyme disease when he was younger, which went incorrectly diagnosed by doctors for about 8 yrs, which completely destroyed him physically, mentally, spiritually etc. So all the success he is now experiencing he definitely had to claw and scratch and fight for. The more Ren you listen too, the sooner you will realize that continual flow switch ups is one of his trademarks and he can rap rap. If you want some examples.of this check out songs such as "The Hunger," "Ocean," "Losing It," and "Down on the Beat." You will probably love his "Money Game" trilogy of songs as well. Hoping to see more Ren reactions from you soon

It's amazing to see people still discovering Ren. I must have seen hundreds of Hi Ren reactions now and it never gets old. The realisation that they are watching something profound, something with substance, compared to the 99% of modern music that is just vapid noise, is always a joy. Ren ins't actually religious by the way, he just likes the metaphorical nature of religious imagery and stories. But there's nothing wrong with relating to it that way. It's art and like all great art, it's open to interpretation.
