The fact that you didn't know he can rap rap makes the reaction to this song to one of the best. But pls do yourself (and us) a favor and react to his other rap stuff as well. I highly recommend .. everything.^^

The fact that yall telling me mercury is heavy metal made that a triple! Which i do know but that one went over my head because of the freddie that followed it but Jesus this dude is super fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

"The hunger" is one of my absolute favourites from Ren. It lives rent free in my brain 😂

How does one end up here without knowing Ren raps? What a trip this must have been 😂

Ren is no stranger to bars! Some suggestions for more: Losing It (Fisher Rap Retake) The Hunger Genesis Power 🔥

"I'm heavy like mercury, like Freddy" Mercury is also a "heavy" metal on the table of elements. 😘

Like alphabeti spaghetti followed by I’m a ‘rap star’ is a nice nod to Em and ‘lose yourself - mom’s spaghetti” and “I’m a rap star” to Em’s “Rap God”.

Mercury is heavy, poisonous, Freddy the killer and singer. BARS.

Power, Genesis, The Hunger, What You Want, Bittersweet Symphony, Losing It. Ren has 4 different rabbit holes. His raps his solo singing, his songs with Sam, and the big push. All are worth the deep dive.

LOVE that you have been on Rens singing side. Almost all of his songs are actual bars and lyricism.

I'm jealous that you now get to hear all of his raps for the first time. FYI- it's called alphabetti spaghetti here in the UK. It's like our spaghettios. Just never thought I'd hear it go hard in a rap.

The refreshing thing with Ren when he raps is that your ears just don't have any opportunity to get bored... Sometimes they can't even keep up 😂😱 my ears are loving it, my brain is trying to keep up 😜

God I loved this reaction. If you want more of rapping Ren check out , The Hunger, Genesis, definitely Losing it and Love music part 1,2,and 3. The real question when it comes to Ren is what CAN’T he do?

Ren has so many videos with bars. The Hunger, Losing It, Genesis, on and on...

"Ready, im HEAVY, im MERCURY, i'm Fraddie". The crazy part of this bar is that mercury is considered an heavy metal... is not only a shout out to Feddie.

"Ready I'm heavy, like mercury I'm Freddie" The element mercury is heavy, Freddie was the flip 👌

Ren.. there are no words to describe his talent!!

I love that this was your introduction to Ren rapping!! ❤❤❤ His other stuff is gonna blow your mind! Smiled all the way through your brilliant reaction.

OHHHH, I'm looking forward to following you through his rap repertoire. 😂 BTW, Ren posts the lyrics to all his videos in a pinned comment.

No superfluous words every line hits you hard. Chills as he closes his eyes because he draws you in.

LOL your faces were brilliant...loved your reaction x

The Ren journey is wild. I’ve just started down the journey myself. I was watching his Twitch after the song dropped and Ren was almost in tears when he saw so many reaction videos pop up so quickly. From what I understand he is super supportive of KZfaq reactors. So don’t be surprised if he comments. I’m glad you sent Jess a video suggestion! It was fantastic. I agree with you, that boy can sing for real. Yep, he’s been sick with Lyme disease and auto immune issues. He’s actually getting medical treatment in Canada, not far from Jess. I love the Stranger Things demogorgon bars, with the double with Eleven. He had so many fun rhyme schemes. “I’m in your hood and I’m Robin” 😜 And I agree, the “alphabetti spaghetti” was quite clever. I think this album is going to have a lot of surprises. Ren seems really excited about it! I hope his treatment goes well so he can do some tour dates.

Oh my God! I thought you've checked out some of his rap stuff! You have to check out "Losing It (Fisher Rap Retake)". Now THAT song is just full of bars Also, Genesis, Power, and The Hunger are all bangers.

I am sooo excited to watch you go down the rapping Ren rabbit hole!!! 😁 You are going to love Power, What You Want, Genesis, Losing It, and The Hunger.

This was such a treat to watch 😂 I didn't know you hadn't heard Ren rapping. He's got bars for days 🙌🏻

Mercury is one of the most fluid materials in the world so there are quite a few takes on the "Freddie Mercury" line.🔥Track and loved the reaction 💯🇬🇧

As everyone has said, The Hunger if you want to see him rap rap. Btw, the Freddie Mercury bit: he did reference it; “I’m heavy, I’m mercury, I’m Freddie”…..Mercury is a toxic HEAVY metal…

Bro, The Hunger going to blow your mind

God spilled the talent bucket when he made this one.

Mary Poppins - Just a spoonful of sugar makes the medicin go down

Great reaction! Loved watching your expressions! Thanks for being 'ON' Ren! We want more, please! 🎉

This is probably my favourite reaction to Ren, every single thought you had, and what you were saying was EXACTLY what was going through my head watching him, it's mind-blowing. I've loved him for such a long time and I'm so glad he's finally getting the recognition he so deserved. Great video. Subbed 😆

I'm a 50 year old white man and I knew he rap rapped.. im losing it! Hunger! But damn I love his singing too.

What a double pleasure this reaction was with you discovering Ren’s rap side. In fact I’d say he spots on more than 50%of his tracks. Life is funny, from a couple years back is one of my favorite of the rappy Ren.

Ren kills everything he does. The amount of top tier music artists out of wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 doesn’t get enough recognition

Oh wow I love the fact you haven’t heard his rapping side until now! Goes to show how vast the man’s catalogue is!

I think the "Mercury" Fredy bar is deeper, and I link it to the previous reference he makes about alchemy. "Mercury" or the mercurial stage of one's inner being on the path to perfecting the soul. This guy is an absolute genius!!

First time on your channel- I just subd- This track is 🔥🔥🔥- REN is an artist that we seldom get these days. He is so versatile and honestly there is really nothing that he can't do. I actually have a playlist of the tracks that I really enjoy- Check out "The Hunger" "The Money Game (both parts), Sick Boi, Power, Genesis, etc.... Much love for doing the reaction.

You've got to check out his other rap stuff. Genesis and Power are two good ones as well as The Hunger.

I learn so much from you, especially when it comes to Rap because it's not something I generally listen to. Yet there is something about how Ren raps - I want to hear what is is sharing. Really glad I did not wait to watch your reaction until after my work day. Others mentioned The Hunger - it does seem like a piece that Ren is playing, showing what he can do when he raps. You may want to have the lyrics on hand for Hunger - suggestion based on other reactions I have seen of The Hunger. Really looking forward to seeing your reaction to this as well. Ren really is a genius that takes the time to master so many music skills and then takes it to a level I have never seen before.

absolutely loved this reaction. i know when i come to your channel i'm gonna get reactions from the singing angle that really appreciate good vocalists - i knew you would appreciate that side of him, and i've been loving it. to then come and get to see your reaction to his rapping.... *chef's kiss*. whether you post reactions to them or not, i echo the suggestions of the hunger, genesis (don't miss the live acoustic version), and losing it, for more of his rapping skills. have an awesome day. - oh no! i thought i was subbed to you, and either i wasn't or youtube unsubbed me, so i'm hitting that button right now. (also, i'm glad yours was the first reaction to illest of our time that i watched, because i really did love watching him blow your mind.)

This was so awesome to watch because you are not even ready for what he can do. Ren is a poet, plan and simple. He can do anything with words and music. He uses rap a lot as the medium, but sometimes singing, but sometimes spoken word. He composes. He makes beats. He plays guitar, bass, drums, cello,piano. He acts. Hes just insane.

This was so fun! You'll have a blast with Ren's rap - unreal bars and flows!

EVERYBODY plz remember GO to Rens channel and watch this video a few of your views not just reactors so his numbers reflect properly please! We want this thing to blow up!

And every bar has at least two layers... Ren is stacking

Aha loved your reaction, it really did surprise you ! You're right, there is no one like Ren, he's in his own lane with no traffic. It's impossible to put him in a genre box.

Man,your smile is priceless, you really enjoy that!! Amazing song by the way!!!

Of all the reactions of this song I’ve watched, This is the best reaction on KZfaq.

I'm very sorry son that we have neglected your education about Ren the Rapper .We did tell you he can do everything ,its just that everything is a big subject , so we didn't emphasise that part, there is plenty more Renrap to cover, equally as good as that one ,but different, some old school influence,all sorts, the Ren Rabbit Hole is vast and filled with Easter goodies , take some time to enjoy. Yum ! For the soul .great reaction ,we can always rely on you for some authentic excitement for shairing quality materials. Love it .❤❤❤

"I turn it up to eleven, the demigorgon of oppin, the strangest thing I'm the boss when" Eleven, Demigorgon, Strangest Thing "Sweet like a spoonful of sugar, because I'm merry like poppin" Mary Poppins gives the kids a spoonful of sugar to help take medication, Ren has had to take a crap ton of meds because he's "the illest of our time" also poppin ties back to the line earlier "let's get it poppin, hot rockin" "I'm heavy, mercury, I am Freddy." Mercury is a heavy metal and its the most dangerous heavy metal. Also Freddy Mercury was also sick, though with the opposite of Ren, Ren had autoimmune where his immune system is overactive, while Freddy Mercury had HIV destroying his immune system. Freddy Mercury was also considered one of the most talented vocalists of his time.

Ren doesn't miss. His catalog is extensive and very deep. Everything Ren does is dripping with genius.

Made me so happy to watch you find out he can rap! Great video!

He has so much amazing stuff but I keep coming back to this one and I think it is my favorite. Nice reaction!

Love the reaction man! Wow, you have a wonderful journey ahead of you my friend when it comes to Ren raps! The Hunger, Genesis, Losing it and What You Want and so much more....and they are all different, crazy! Enjoy and keep up the great work!

You are going to lose your mind my brother! Rens flows, cadences and rhyme schemes are next level, and as a bonus, it's all fun. "Losing it', 'What You Want', 'The Hunger', 'Right Here, Right Now' and 'Bitter Sweet Symphony' should get you off to a nice start. Plenty more where that came from, enjoy! Subbed

Everything Ren puts out is a perpetual introduction. All his artistic musical creations are unique just like he is… it’s exciting, like tearing open a package to see what’s inside.💞 If you notice, even the influx of his tone of voice and emphasis placed on his words kind of had a “sing/song” sound to this rap that was so cool! Also, if you want to make sure you’re getting correct lyrics, Ren provides them on his channel with his video posts. I can’t wait to see you do more reactions of “Mr. Illest of Our Time.” ❤✌️

😍 ".. I feel like I'm in a warrior's movie."

this just blew me away with how much bounce there is to this track. I was not expecting this at all

Absolutely love this...def can rap rap. Love your reaction to Ren! You get him!

Haha, somebody has yet to review The Hunger....You need a dedicated week of REN only to catch up. Love your Genuine reviews man.

Dude, you've learned Ren can rap ...now you gotta go see how he "RAP" raps! Check out *"The Hunger"* _(Short, fast and bragadocious)_ , *"Losing it"* _(Endless epic flows)_ Oh, and just for fun... *"What you want"* _(Retro, beastie-boys style, happy hiphop vibes to make you smile)_

This is a great reaction. I love it when you’re shocked by things. It makes it so much better to see. Loved it 👌👍

The Freddy mercury bar starts with, ready im heavy, mercury like Freddy, mercury is a heavy metal.

he said "I'm heavy. Mercury. I'm Freddie" -Mercury is one of the socalled Heavy Metals in the periodic table, So thats what connected the whole thing, not just freddie Mercurys two names swiched..... :)

You wanna hear BARS - Ren “The Hunger” Styles, Bars, Flows, 🤯

Ren fans love seeing hearts and minds being shattered by our bard. Thanks.

This is my first time to your channel. I will warn you. I comment as I go like you react. So there might be multiple comments. I don't expect answers to all of them. I don't even expect answers to any of them. But Hey, either way, I did want to tell you that I really enjoyed your beginning. That lead up was freaking awesome. Not too long and enough volume to hear the bass bump, thank you.

HAHA! Love your reactions. Yes, Ren has bars my friend.

He said he is heavy before saying he is mercury, which is a heavy metal.. 😊

Cool reaction 👍🔥

You are my new favourite reactor. Realness. From UK massive

I really enjoyed your introduction to REN’s rapping and lyrical skills. By the way, this was made one night in a Brighton squat. That takes nerve!

Ren is the Original "Bardcore Genre Bender" The Master Bard himself ( Shakespeare ) would have understood exactly where Ren was coming from. Ren isn't just a songwriter but rather a Performance Art Master who blends music and character acting from all the styles over the last 500 years and makes it modern and relatable to all generations even if normally you may not be a fan of whatever genre he is currently performing. The Ren Rabbit Hole is Deep and Powerful! Get Ready for the Ride of your Life!

Ah man. He does it all, extremely well! The Hunger, Genesis, Losing it, What you Want...all great rap songs by Ren! Check them all out!!

Story is Ren went almost a decade with un-diagnosed Lyme's disease. By the time it was discovered, he was full into a complete cascade of auto-immunological side effects and a heaping does of PTSD that messed up his mind. Man's been digging himself out of a deeeeep hole and it's gonna be scary when he gets his health back 100% and he can focus on his music with no distractions. Consider, this is the output of a guy with a ton of health distractions.. and it's already pure fire.

The Freddie Mercury flip isn't just a flip. Check it out again, he says "ready I'm heavy, like mercury, I'm freddie" And mercury is a heavy metal!

I know you are going to go back for yourself and break this down more, just thought I would let you know he put the lyrics in the comments. Great reaction. The stranger things bar gets me just as much as the alpha betty spaghetti.

Hoollllly Sh******t dude - If you havent seen some of his other stuff where he can "Rap Rap" then you are in for a treat my friend. Cant wait to see some reactions if you step down his other rabbit hole ;) Tale of Jenny and Screech is insane Storytelling, (must watch the whole story in order) Genesis, Losing It, The Hunger, 1990's - I literally love everything this guy does. Hes a one of a kind creative genius that is such a rare rare gem.

No excuses, you covered that exactly how it's too be👍...I hear it, like you hear it

He's talking about Mercury the chemical element which is heavy.

The hunger l, losing it, genesis…watch these immediately if you want to hear him rap rap.

mercury is a heavy metal so the lyric has an internal consistancy and mercury poisoning effects may being referenced as well

Yes referring to Freddy murcury but also Mercury is a heavy element " referring to table of elements"

I love how when Ren says "i don't feel so well" even in his song and everybody is like "omg you ok Ren!?"

Loved this reaction!!! Alphabeti spaghetti what a line. I hadn't heard that as you had and you made it hit home. Check out genesis, hunger, losing it. I'd say 3 of my favourites but they are all my faves!!!!

I think I found the root of "The Illest" : "Want to sink into the pupil* of my eye Travel to the corner of my cornea** and mind Look for all the answers*** that I never seem to find Till then, I guess I’m still the illest** of our time" think about it "ill be the illest (till i find) the answer I'm looking for...?" like he doesn't want to be the illest if he was the greatest he would never want to stop being the greatest but he isn't claiming to be the greatest just the "illest" till he finds the answer? The answer*** he is looking for is a cure to Lyme Disease until he finds it he is the illest** of our time but he'd rather not be, he'd rather cure Lyme Disease. None of his treatments make sense there's no plan the'yre just trying stuff on him, even now in Canada there's no long term plan & goal (he said it in a video) it's all pretty much experimental. He has to study what he has seen done to him he is the pupil* (student) of his eyes travel through the light in the darkness he's been through. The cornea** (The transparent part of the eye that covers the iris and the pupil and allows light to enter the inside.) But what do you think? Blessings from Puerto Rico

You'll love The Hunger! Get you jaw-holder ready though.. it's a 2 minutes flow-switch-flex

fvkin loved it so much. alpha tier sonic material. super glad I came across your channel!

My introduction to your channel was Led Zeppelin "Since I've been loving you" ❤️ Love all your reactions, brother. Crazy intro to REN's rap bag. He has lots of killer rap songs 🎵

Just a little fact for you,Ren is from Wales just like Tom Jones. Love your reactions,especially Tom Jones " I'll never fall in love" cheers from a Welsh bloke.

The Hunger. You really, really wanna listen to that one, trust.

Yo bro love that 😂ren is crazy 😮

Bro your Ren journey has been awesome to see up to this point, and it is gonna be awesome to see you go down the rap catalogue. My suggestion is “losing it” EDM bars for days. Really fun. Keep up the good work, know your efforts are noticed and appreciated.

Oh man, I think Ren caught you completely off guard 😯.Great reaction, really enjoyed it. Much love from Germany.

Hey man, if you want to hear a few more of REN’s bars, check out What You Want, Losing It, The Hunger, Genesis

Yo I loved seeing your mind blown in real-time. Now you gotta see how deep the rabbit hole goes

i've gotta go see if you've reacted to the hunger now! it's on! 🔥🔥 this was fun, ty :)

I’m glad you enjoyed this. Another reactor for “Losing It” (fun, check it out!) was like: REN’s got bars and bars and bars, he built a prison…

I love your reactions. I love your surprise with his bars.

Geniuses drum n bass...by ren....again fire ...There's a video
