Thankyou for reacting brother!! always a pleasure to see how other people respond to my work!! Thankyou for the kind words, much love

My favourite genre on KZfaq is ‘watching Ren Reactions’.

As a mental health professional, it was obvious from the very beginning of this performance Art/music that he has experienced more severe mental health problems than most. His performance is also the best expression of what it is like to suffer such, and yet be able to manage the inner struggles, that I have ever seen, and that the average person can relate to at some level. In other words we can see the “crazy” in a genuine way, and yet still experience empathy, rather than just discomfort. And we like Ren and feel compassion. True genius! I’ve never seen it done this well by ANY other actor, artist or musician.

This children, is called art.

I work next to where he lives. Had a party upstairs with work colleagues and he came and joined us. He’s so talented and such a chill guy. Love him

I'm 67. It's been a while since I liked a new artist. I like this guy.

Ren is from Brighton. He's an absolute legend. Outstanding mental health advocate, phenomenal talented, complete sweetheart. no label does all of it himself. Go listen to his albums and the Jenny, screech and violet series. He's also in a band called the big push. FKIN crying again at it tbh

I know Ren doesn't care about the BS industry, but he deserves every accolade and industry wide recognition for this. Seriously, this should be song of the year, video of the year, mental health awareness campaign of the year, and more. Calling on all Ren fans - let's make this happen. Download everywhere, share everywhere, lobby everywhere. Salute. Peace.

He’s so brutally honest that by the end - it’s hard to bear it. That honesty just breaks me. It’s so rare nowadays… nobody knows what “it” is but that guy got it in spades. He’s a star… rest of us are just catching up.

I was thinking: M&M, Plan B, Jamie T, classical guitar, hip hop, rock, opera, performance art, theatre, psycho-drama, poetry? Ultimately it is much more than all those things. By the end, if you're not close to tears you're not listening properly. Powerful, moving, deeply personal, inspiring and ultimately totally unique.

Ren is a lyrical/musical genius! 💯❤️

"This is art" was literally the only thought I had after I've listened to that. I've cried for half an hour after listening. It was wild

Came across this song lately , I can t stop listening.. I m 56 years and never listened to anything like it... This is art , this is so touching.. mindblowing... I never reacted to a song like I did to Hi Ren.... Hi Ren I thank you for your musik! Not only expressing feelings with words or musik , it s the whole lot ... it s art

I am so glad that more people are finding Ren. I've only discovered him a week ago and have been sharing him with everyone. The rest of his music is just as phenomenal

I absolutely LOVE how the opera type singing kinda freaks everyone out at the beginning and then, after the journey of this piece, they are jamming to the crazy at the end!

He's been living with chronic pain for like eight or nine years. Plus all the mental toil that goes with it. Amazing dude. So glad he found a path and shared it with us.

Ren is the most beautiful soul in the world! I love him without even knowing him!

Only discovered Ren this week, and i haven:t stopped listening. An amazing talent, a true storyteller and an unbelievable artist. The tracks he does with One Big Push are equally impressive, especially his vocals on "I shot the Sheriff". Hoping to see him play live asap.

This song gives me goosebumps. The best song I have heard in years. Doesn't matter how many times I hear it still gives me goosebumps. Totally magnificent

Ren is my alltime favourite artist, and for good reason. Whenever he uploads a music video like this (he has many lol) I just want to scream to everyone I know, "THIS IS REN! PAY ATTENTION."

Thank you for reacting to this wonderful humam being! You don't realise how much it means to Ren and the community to share his art. SAs the lyrics say - His music is really connecting and the peoople who find it respect it. We love Ren and we are soo soo greatful to you for this amazing reaction. Many thanks!

When I first started watching Ren's video I truly thought "WTF" but I couldn't stop watching. Ren is a very talented Musician, Rapper, Actor and Guitar Player and much more. I was truly blown away WOW!!! REN YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!

I absolutely love Ren! I’m 60 and he has an autoimmune disease so do I. His guitar music brought me in and then I had to see everything he’s done! Amazing kid! Just love this!

THIS. IS. INSANE. WOW! 🤯 The music itself and the message are both unbelievably phenomenal! For those who have or are struggling with their mental health, this is exactly what the inner struggle is like inside the mind of many whether they show it or not!

Every time I listen to this masterpiece, I take something new from it... mind blowing. Incredible. Raw. Life changing. This is legacy material.

I felt the same way when I first saw him and I started watching all of his videos. He is a genius his talent is grand .

Bro if you have just discovered this artist you are in for some treat ..!! I’m in the uk, have been involved in music for many years and this guy is the most talented, unique and interesting artist the uk has seen in a long time ..! Every song is amazing and not one sounds alike ..go check Genesis after this ..just for starters :) 👍

Been following Ren since the start and all I can say is he is THE most talented artist of this generation. With what he's going through and trying to overcome whilst putting out the sheer brilliance that he does, it's just criminal. Criminal because he's not even 30 and with the health issues he has he doesn't have the ability to put all of his effort into his music and his life in general, yet he still manages to blow the minds of the whole planet. I hope every day that Ren's health improves. We haven't even seen the beginning of what he can achieve.

I just found him also and am insanlely blown away! 🤩😍😍

Recently stumbled across this as well, and it’s simply phenomenal

Ren is a musical and lyrical genius!!! Check out his Tale Trilogy; Jenny's Tale followed by Screech's Tale and then Violet's Tale. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

i discovered him with this song too, it blew me away also, the guy is a genius , i have watched back on a lot of his other songs in the last 2 weeks, serious talent

Ren is incredible 👌 Edit: I can't believe the amount of love rens getting after years of listening, I hope this is your moment ren you've more than earned it 👏

Ren is an experience! It took me a couple days to regain my conversational skills! For a dark topic somehow he leaves the viewer in a safe place....,.in awe.....taking a moment or two or ten to process all the emotions, goosebumps, every hair on your body standing at attention and your mind utterly blown! It starts to dawn on you that to hough to he subject was dark and your heart breaks for Ren, Ren is already helping you to your feet with the magnificent beauty of his performance. What got me was Ren is so brave to share this with us, it had to have been ,he had the strength to keep it honest, raw, powerful you feel his light, innocence, how it seems he has positive vibes....… To which your face melts and your respect for Ren begins to grow and grow. Nw you will have a Ren habit, you won't be able to get enough! The more you see the more you want to see, just don't expect to to get injured to the mind blowing awe, that is by going to stay aimed UP the mountain! I remember hearing a saying "there is a fine line between genius and crazy" and this horrible thought popped into my head- if that is true how many have we destroyed with as Ren put it "white noise" of pharmaceutical poison? I am overwhelmed by the experience of Ren, it's like he evokes a physiological response in you that no other musician/music EVER has AND THAT IS ON TOP OF all the almost too many other feelings you are trying to process. I feel honored to have been able to have experienced Ren, and I wholeheartedly feel everyone on this planet be allowed this as well, because somehow he exudes a soothing and healing calm too. Conversations get deeper, more interesting because of the awareness he bestows. Ren is beautiful genius a gift

Ren has given me chills for 3yrs. But watching you experience him was insane. Awesome reaction and well deserved. He has worked so so hard. ❤🌹 love you Ren x You have an awesome collection of Ren tunes to enjoy. Welcome to a new fave artist. X

Ren is an awesome artist! Glad you recorded you're first impression of him. Because that's also the exact effect that he did on me. Good Content bro!

The first video I watched by Ren was Violet's Tale and it left me crying LOL I've since been catching up on all of his music, and sharing it with others. Loved your reactions and your appreciation of this young man's incredible talent. Yes, he can indeed sing!

I literally had the same reactions and have shared it with anyone willing to listen

Great to see as much passion in the reviewer as in the creator, awesome facial reactions.

I love that ren is getting noticed more! He deserves massive recognition for the music he puts out. Never heard a bad track from him and every song is a journey. He is one of my favourite artists.

I LOVE Ren and you should watch all his stuff.

This is an absolutely a Masterpiece! Ive been asking every reaction channel I follow to react to it and so far Anthony from Rap Catalog did it and Nick the Actor did it. All 3 of you had no Idea who he was or what you were about to witness and all 3 of you had epic reactions calling it true real raw art and a masterpiece! I want everyone to get the chills I experienced when I came across this! Which was exactly the same way you did. Except you immediate reaction was to record a video to get it out there and mine was to request reactions to get it out there! This is definitely the best song of 2022 Im pretty confident I can even say best song since 2020? And it could definitely go even beyond that! Great reaction Bro new sub here!

I love the way he's so heavy handed with the classical guitar... He plays the fuck out of it!

Nice reaction vid! Ren in such a creative guy and the way he told this story about himself is insane.

I had to comment before even finishing this video, mann this is refreshing to watch, i was only here because i love Ren and the song and wanted to see what others also think but your input and reaction is just so amazing i was smiling throughout the whole video, you're very genuine very understanding of music and art and your really notice the details! much respect for u! and glad you enjoyed the song as well

Nobody has seen anything like this tbh. Awesome. This must be the tenth time I've heard it and the tenth I've been in tears.

this dude is the most original artist UK/England has produced since forever I am a 60 yr old man and his music is the most original sound happening go check out his catalogue I fucking dare you no one like him he an outsider

I’ve watched Hi Ren after discovering it yesterday about 44 times and I’ve watched every reaction to it as well. I’m awestruck.

Brilliant!!! Loved this so different funny but serious and a lot more, at the same time. Brilliant!!! I will not forget!! Thankyou. 76 year old women.

I just found Ren to and this piece specifically, and had a very similar reaction. The witnessing of an artist. I too had to immediately rewatch it and again!

I've been binging Ren reactions. I'm addicted

How did I know this dude was a British artist just by looking at the thumbnail? Raw, divergent creativity that seems to flow so uniquely from these shores.

So cool seeing you watch this for the first time, and go through exactly the same thought process of sheer amazement at his skills and artistic vision for this piece. I then went on to discover his other music and let me tell you, Jenny's Tale, Screech's Tale and Violet's Tale (in that order if you haven't already seen them) will blow you away. Chalk outlines is also amazing.

Can you just imagine that all Ren's singing and guitar playing was live? He's really a true artist!

I agree. Triple threat - guitar, voice, and lyric - but also theater. This Epic dialogue hits so squarely in the middle of the human cunundrum that artists since the beginning of time have been wrestling with.

You have found the mad genius, Ren. Congratulations!

Mind Blowing! It was AWESOME! Thank you for doing the reaction

This song hits me 30 different directions in the feels. The video sells it. But man this is going to be one of those songs you never forget.

I discovered him last night. I've been listening to him all day. This dude is fixing to become a megastar whether he keeps up with the numbers or not. He's so talented.

Ren is a great performer living in Brighton...and has also been part of a busking group called the Big Push... love them too👍

I just found out about him because of this video now I'm A BIG FAN!

Ren is an artist in Brighton UK! No record Label, he is truly amazing KY number 1! You should hear more of his music

Look at his pinned comments and description on his original post of this video. He goes into detail about his life and struggles. It explains a lot. He's amazing and I hope he blows up globally.

I got so excited when I first saw his song Jenny that I sent it too all my friends interested in music. He is a Genius and I am so happy you are discovering him

"in the music I left behind" ugh I wasnt supposed to tear up at the beginning of this year.

I've known of Ren for the past few years! He's honestly amazing, you should react to a lot more of his songs!

I just found this video today and was similarly blown away. Fantastic visuals to go with gripping music.

Great reaction and comments. I just learned about Ren a few days ago and have gone down this rabbit hole ever since. I can personally relate to many of his songs and they deeply touch me. Ren is an amazing artist; he plays multiple instruments and has great vocal ability. I am glad you have decided to check more of him. I would suggest you also listen/react to his musical collaborations with Sam Tompkins, Chinchilla, his solo street performances, as well as his street sessions as a member of "The Big Push," which really showcase his vocal and instrumental skills. Ren is one-of-a-kind.

Bro, this is the first song of his I heard also. The whole production of the video is top-tier, his storytelling abilities are phenomenal. After listening to this, I went down the rabbit hole because I needed to know everything about him, his other music, his story and upcoming projects/tours. This guy is f@cking AMAZING!!! I would recommend reacting to Screech and Violet's Tale next

This kid is absolutely awesome were has he been foreva

i was speechless too.. wow.. HES AMAZING... the best part was the end too.... great reaction!!!

Definitely checking this dude out. Never heard of him before but it’s definitely a deep cut that hits on so many levels. Well done.

Damn thats Life-ART!!! ❤ Ren I feel it so much, the story behind too. We need more of you & that healthy additude. Yes indeed...15 stages of emotions in Ren‘s music…absolutly, that sucks. Love it. 🙏

Thank you for this reaction! Ren is amazing :) He deserves more attention. I would strongly suggest for you to check out "The tale of Jenny and Screech" and also "Money Game", to start. Subscribed !

Enjoyed the reaction a lot, man. Subscribed. If you think of reacting to his other songs, I can recommend you react to the Jenny's Tale, Schreech's Tale and Violet's Tale trilogy (in that order since it is a continuous narrative). Lots of different genres and styles in his channel (hip-hop, ballads and eclectic) and also in the Big Push channel (rock).

Simply amazing

I totally would've watched u seeing it a second time, and also you now HAVE to check out violets take absolutely perfect guitar playing

Love the tears waiting in the corners of your eyes. It hits me that way, too. Excellent reaction.

You should absolutely listen to the tale of Jenny and screech and violets tale, in that order. They’re excellent

Incredibly powerful! This guy should be writing stage shows!

It’s a very good in depth well written and performed piece of work

I first saw this on Justin Hawkins channel.. but I love your reaction!... totally like me! Speechless! This kid is genius! Woah

He seriously deserves a Nobel prize in psychology for this.

OMG I just found him the other day and thought the same thing! I've never seen such raw talent!

I love watching your emotions as you watch this piece of art history. I went through many of the same feelings I think. This guy Ren is a standout star among billions ❤️

ive been grinding this song, as a kid who grew up in a tough place this song resonated with me so much.

I’m blown away, first reaction that I’ve watched that I got to react too also.

Ren is a very talented musician from Brighton. I first noticed him from a song called blind eyed which he sung with Sam Tompkins I highly suggest you listen to that also the band The Big Push which he's in.

Wow ✨ It’s brilliant 🎶❤️‍🩹🧠✌🏽 it’s poetry , emotions , mental health & music 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

The joy on your face watching this video has made my day!!! Thank you!!!!

Just watched all your Ren reactions. It's very interesting to see how his songs impact the listener. With Hi Ren it seems to go from initial confusion to utter emotional involvement. He's incredible. Ps subbed as I really enjoyed your reactions 👍

Ren is my beloved underground king! A modern bard! Please, if you could, also react to some of Ren's other songs, especially Jenny's Tale, Screech's Tale, and Violet's Tale IN THAT ORDER. Those songs are a trilogy that tell a specific story, and it won't hit right unless listened to correctly the first time around. They're what put me onto Ren to begin with, and I haven't been the same since

The word you were looking for is 'evoke', Ren was able to evoke those feelings in you, which is a rare gift.

Not only live, I read somewhere it was shot in one take. Mind blown 🤯

Like you this came up on my feed a week ago, it elicited a visceral reaction in me and since then I have been exploring the deep deep rabbit hole that is REN’s artistry. REN is pure genius. A troubadour for our times just as Dylan was the poet and songsmith of his day so is REN for today. I humbly suggest you react to the series Julia, Screech and Violet in that order next.❤

Never listen to a song that made me have so many mixed filling in my head. This song is a reminder that it's important to acknowledge and accept that sometimes we have to seek professional help to overcome our mental health struggles and that it's okay to be ill.

I think we need another reaction after seeing it a few times and listening to it over.

Finally someone reacted to Ren!!!

This guy is a freaking legend

This is my first time hearing of Ren and goddamn, i loved everything about this. Thanks my guy
