We need to get Ren in here. You nailed the Sick Boi concepts and called out a bunch that nobody else called. I think Ren would get a kick out this breakdown. ❤❤

Ren recently refused to define the meaning of the pig stating that he'd rather leave it a mystery and allow people to lend their own definition to it.

Ren has not divulged what the pig means to him...he said he likes to hear what others interpret it to be. Love this reaction!

Absolutely buzzing you’ve decided to get into reactions bro. Your response to Hi Ren with BP was crazy bro. As a big UK fan it’s awesome to see a skilled musician as yourself from across the pond to be embracing one of our ( in my opinion) greatest artists around today. My 1st time was so similar bro. Hope your channel blows up and much appreciation from the uk for helping spread the word about the lyrical genius that is REN 👊

Awesome first reaction Ian! A few things I want to touch on....The volume level of the video seemed low (could just be me), be careful how often you pause because some people, (unlike me who actually enjoy the pauses and breakdowns), get pissy about that kind of thing, and last, definitely push your own music more before/after each video because you young man, are a pretty dope rapper yourself! Before coming to this channel, I subscribed to your personal channel and checked out alot of your stuff and you are very talented! Much love! ❤✌️

I'm so glad you decided to do this! I can tell your reactions are going to be awesome. Another thing to consider is that Ren was misdiagnosed for years; being told your illness is just all in your head when you know there is a physical cause is beyond frustrating. I think the pig, who is usually dressed like a butcher, could represent the medical community and how they "butchered" his diagnosis and treatment. Subbed for more Ren!

so glad you have started your own react channel mate, you was great on BP the other week

Congratulations on your first reaction broski! Your setup is good, your sound and camera is good quality, and i like how you apply your musical and rapping knowledge to your reaction as well😊! Your analysis of the subject of the song is dope! Keep it up!

Great first reaction - here from your BP guest reaction on Hi Ren where you said it so perfectly that Ren doesnt just paint a canvas, he paints the whole room. Glad you've jumped on board so quick and look forward to more

100%spot on for this one! You are doing Ren proud 🎉 great reaction and much success to you on your reaction journey 😊

I'm so sorry for your families loss. Losing a sibling so young must have been very hard. For me as a mother though the thought of losing a child is beyond soul crushing. Your poor folks, you and whatever siblings you may have and of course extended family. Sending my love and positive vibes to you all. Though I understand it was a while ago these things never fade, just get easier to live with. I'm also glad yous managed to turn it into something positive through the foundation. Oh and I nearly forgot cause I got caught up in a tangent great reaction you've a new sub 😊

A suggestion would be to rewind 5 seconds or so after a pause but 🔥🔥 reaction

It's so much fun to watch you pick up on something in the song, knowing that you have it right, and then seeing your reaction when it happens in the video. You catch so much. I really enjoy your analysis and how much fun you have doing it.

Great to see you start your own reaction channel! Your insights are intelligent, natural and fun. Congrats, I'm sure more people will be by, as soon as they know you are reacting. Good luck with it. 🙂

Oh damn! What a reaction! I've watched so many reactions to this song, but you caught things nobody else caught onto. Thank you. Appreciate your insight.

G'day Ian 👋 🇦🇺 I'm coming at you from Queensland, Australia. It was great to see your Hi Ren reaction on BPs channel and I'm stoked to see you with your own. I really enjoyed your first reaction - You're spot on - I can see that you're going to love the deep dive down the Ren Rabbit Hole. 😆 Welcome to the RENaissance - I believe you are officially a RENegade ❤❤

Love your reaction, so enthusiastic and u really got the message or messages. Like all Ren songs there is never just one message and so many layers. On some levels this is touching on the same social commentary as Money game 1&2 where he clearly points out that he is aware that he is part of the problem just like all of us. Good job 💖

I'm pretty sure Ren has never flat out said what the Pig means.He is an artist afterall and likes to kerp us guessing. We do know Ren is a big fan of George Orwell's, Animal Farm. So my theory is the pig is a combination of either Snowball & Napoleon with a dash of some side effects and aftermath of gaining too much power/greed. Ren is extremely intelligent so i dont think the Pig is meant to represent 1 thing. No way its that simplistic. Ifeel like Mr. PIG is meant to reference multiple complex symbols dependent on when/where he appears. 🐷🐷. Could be wrong though. 😅

Ren has Lyme disease and got misdiagnosed with depression/chronic fatigue syndrome for many years. The whole "your mind is making you sick" was basically what he was told by doctors and nurses in the system - "It's all in your head", while the actual Lyme disease was making him more and more sick.

This was an amazing first reaction. Glad I’m one of the early subs.

Yes, boi! Nice work for your first reaction. So this is what happens when people say they want you back for more Ren reactions which means you have to wait listening to more of his music until you react to it so you just start your own channel to not have to wait for BP? 😂 Good decision! See you deep down the Ren rabbit hole with the rest of us 🐰 🕳️

Great first reaction video on your new channel! Congrats! You have such wonderful insights. Subscribed and can't wait for the next one.

Awesome reaction! Absolutely amazing seeing you react to more Ren. I cannot get enough of him! Well done!

I love how you have a #ChrisLiepe take on the rap side of things.

IT!! Happily surprised to see you with a reaction channel.

Love hearing your thoughts and really looking forward to you falling down the rabbit hole! I really hope that the music you discover helps you make the music you want to make, with the confidence to follow your ideas wherever they take you.

Great to see your first reaction. Saw you on with BP reacting to Ren and loved that so I’m really excited to see you react to more Ren - have subscribed already 😀 Think you picked a great track as your first reaction-and that you tried to pull back the layers of a song that is saying such a lot about society and the medical profession. Really looking forward to joining you down the rabbit hole. Thanks Ian 😀

I'm a little late but here now. Looking forward to hearing your choices. You are always interesting. Great start.

Ren is the epitome of versatility. New subscriber and I love your breakdown and intelligence.

From his Justin Hawkins interview, he talked about when he had his record deal with Trick the Fox, and he was hiding how sick he was, which made everything worse.

From our mouths to your ears!

I saw you on Black Pegasus and loved it so you’ve earned a sub here! Ren is amazing and needs to be heard. Chalk Outlines with Chinchilla also relates to this and Hi Ren it is about the psychiatric drugs and is a beautiful song!

So pleased you started a reaction channel! You were fab on BP channel! ❤ Edit to add: I commented before I watched to the end, I’m so sorry for the loss of your brother, it must’ve been so hard for you and your family.❤

Subscribed. Will have to watch later, Rens new video just premiered and he will be on twitch at half past (3 mins) to talk about it....

Saw your guest visit and happy to subscribe to your channel. Excited for more of your take on Ren's amazing catalog!

This first time watching your reaction justifies that I subscribed immidiately, even before having watched this. I just KNEW you are phenomenal and very intelligent. You really catch everything… Knox Hill, take care 😄. Hugs from Denmark. Lene61/🇩🇰

Yes! You were awesome on BP and I’m glad you decided to do this. I’ve already run through all the videos you’ve posted 🤷‍♂️

You would probably enjoy Ren’s interview with Justin Hawkins rides again

Come over from P's show, Glad you decided to start your own thing to watch. Excited to see more.

Great reaction! Ren has given me hope for the future of music. I've spent the last 15-20 years listening to 70-80-90's music as I have lost faith in the music industry. Keep up the good work.

Amazing breakdown. I loved watching you breaking things down before the reveals in the song. Awesome job.

You summed up Ren with this quote “there’s so many layers”.

YAYYYY I'm sooooo happy u started your own reaction channel, you're gonna go places my dude!! Looking forward to being on that ride with you. Keep it up 🤗💜💜💜

Woot! Thanks Ian for sharing your review and insights! Loved seeing you on BP’s channel and looking forward to seeing more. Got a Sub from me! Have a great day!!!

Hey my dude! Happy to see you here!!! We 💞 u on BP! 😜 dope reaction, you were on point guessing where it was going all the way through!

ren is great, good reaction man, cheers

I think the pig symbolism refers to those in charge. Banks, politicians, big pharma, big oil, etc. Each reference is song dependent.

Was really impressed with your breakdown of Hi Ren on Black Pegasus's channel. So was glad to see you doing more reactions and once again you broke it down really well will definitely be watching more of your content.

Heyyy I loved you on BP! Excited to see more of your reactions ❤

Great reaction. Glad you took the reaction plunge.

I keep getting Ren reactions in my feed because I can't stop clicking on them. Haha not complaining. This was a fantastic reaction. Loved how much you picked up on your first listen. Subscribed.

I just finally put together that you were the one in that Black Pegasus video! 🤦‍♂️ I’m stoked to see that you started this channel! You have a great musical insight and camera presence.

For the algo 🔥 excited to see that you're doing more of these!

Super reaction, loving your work. Sad to hear of your family’s loss 💔 mate. 🇬🇧👍

Let's go, I'm stoked ! digg the energy, been wanting to see more react content from u since I first saw you on BP's channel.

Late congratulations 😂 now I’m binge watching all your reactions. Love your energy and passion for the craft.

So glad you did your channel ,I saw your original reaction with BP and loved your childlike awe 😊

Loved your reaction with BP so am glad you have started doing your own. I’m watching a load of them tonight 🖤

Your excitement is incredibly infections 😂 Love your reactions. Your channel will explode

Great first reaction and breakdown, Gonna try and catch the rest of your videos and reactions and got yourself a new sub for sure. Enjoy the ride 👍

Brilliant reaction I've only just found your channel but now I'm happy I've got lots more content to watch. I've seen so many reactions to rens videos and half of them just watch the video and make one small comment at the end like "woah that was crazy" I love how you broke down all the different parts from the music, to the lyrics and the social commentary within it. You're doing a great job keep it up

I had already watched the BP guest spot. Then i watched one of your Ren reactions and subscribed not even putting the two together that I had seen you on another channel😂. Love your reactions

Came to you from Black P, who is someone I watch on the regular. Dope job far my guy, best wishes for the future of the project! Got my sub for sure. Get after it!

Nailed it! You just earned a new subscriber, and will now check out your own songs. You have great energy dude, plus you have great insight. Please keep these reactions up, they are not only enjoyable, but you bring something new to this genre of reactions. Big thumbs up! 👊

I'm here black p sent me saw you over there and I'm here for it love your take on the songs liked and subbed

I am happy for you! Keep going!!!

So great ! Keep up the good work. I'm looking through all your videos so far. I like your personality and you seem very intelligent, positively bright and authentic. Inspires me. I think the pig symbolizes the sick society and especially it draws attention to the "pig rule" in our society. Shown from Animal farm. Greetings from Germany 😊

Yeah right on! I was feeling bad when you were going to have to not watch Ren and save it for BP. Now you can go nuts. Sub'd.

Love your insight brother. I saw you with Black Pegasus. Excited to see you go down the Ren rabbit hole. He’s absolutely brilliant. I highly recommend you checking out Tool. They are also very deep and talented. Enjoy your reactions. Keep up the good work.

Ian, I love your insights, your point of view is very interesting. You have a new subscriber. 👍❤ I’m really sorry about your brother. 🙏

Like Ren, you seem wise beyond your years. Great reaction! ❤❤

Look forward to your reactions.. got Ren there's some amazing stuff other big reactors haven't got to focusing on the latest big tracks.

🤘🤮👍 Sick reaction

Welcome. You will be the bomb. No doubt.

My favorite line from this is "Science tells us that it's suicide and still we commit"

Definitely in my top five Ren songs! 🐷

Great content 👌 Genesis from Ren has 2 versions, you could do both the video and the acoustic version in one reaction. They are so different but fantastic 👏 ❤❤

Yay!❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Im here for Ren😊
