Ren can literally do it all! He can RAP rap, he can sing, amazing musician, lyricist, makes all his own beats, hell he even beat boxes! LOL Ren in one word is an ARTIST!

Ren is perhaps the most multifaceted, prodigiously talented musician I've ever come across...his talents defy a 'genre'. He can (and does) do it all.

Ren is one of the greatest storytellers. It's not just his musical ability, it's the way he pulls you in. Every song he does is a trip to another place. Tale of Jenny and Screech, is amazing.

I found Ren like a week or so ago and I was instantly enthralled by him. Everything he does from the videos, the voice, the lyrics and everything inbetween in nothing short of genius. He is a visionary. HIGHLY recommend the Tale of Jenny and Screech (full) Its 3 songs all one after the other but its worth the watch, you will be blown away 100% Scru.

Rock, reggae, hip hop, edm, pop, punk, folk, Ren does it all. The way he bends genres is awesome.

The world needs your reaction to The Tale of Jenny and Screech Scru. Ren has an entire catalog of various genres

Ren is perhaps the most multifaceted, prodigiously talented musician I've ever come across... I love him ... and the people he collaborates with : they are all Fire ! Chinchilla , Sam Tomkins, Romain Axisa, The big Push as a whole , Eden Nash .... Editing : I forgot his friend Sam on the camera, filming his performaces in such a beautiful, clever way ! props to him too .

Here is some additional information on Ren's story that I gathered from old newspaper interviews, articles, and Ren's livestreams and posts where he discussed his condition. Ren Erin Gill is a British musician/independent artist; born in Wales on March 29, 1990; he eventually moved to Brighton. Ren pursued a career in music from an early age. In 2009, while studying music performance at Bath Spa University, Ren began to experience health issues and was struggling to attend his lectures. In 2010, he was signed by Sony Records and was working on an album when his health deteriorated to the point where he was unable to continue and subsequently his contract with Sony was dissolved. Ren's illness often kept him in bed for up to 23 hours daily. Ren was initially misdiagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, and chronic fatigue syndrome, which led him to experience psychosis and develop PTSD. It would take seven years before a doctor in Belgium finally correctly diagnosed Ren with autoimmunity, Lyme disease, and resulting damage to the brain, organs, joints, and PTSD. Ren eventually underwent stem cell therapy in the United States, which improved his health, but it has not been a cure. Ren is currently in Calgary, Canada for more treatments, including surgeries, and will have to be there for at least six months (Summer of 2023) undergoing IV and other interventions five days a week. Ren recently underwent wisdom tooth removal and cavitation surgery. In addition, his Canadian doctor discovered that Ren also developed a condition called Mast Cell Activation Disorder (MCAD), which has affected the myelin sheath in his brain, his thyroid, adrenals as well as his bones/joints. Now, Ren is receiving additional treatments for this previously undiagnosed condition. Let's keep supporting Ren as he undergoes his treatments. Check out and subscribe to his channel, if you are a content creator, ask your audience to subscribe to Ren. Listen to some of his earlier work, like and comment on his performances, and let's lift Ren's spirits. If you are a believer, pray for him. Ren is an artist with something to say to the world, and his work is important in these troubling times. Someone has finally created a Wikipedia page for Ren, so there is additional information available. Here is the link to Ren’s GoFundMe page to raise money for his current treatment. Ren has exceeded his initial goal. However, his goal was very conservative and did not reflect the added costs of unforeseen surgical procedures, and treatment for additional health issues such as MCAD. www.gofundme.com/f/ren-get-better-from-lyme-disease-and-autoimmunity

If you're looking for him to bring different themes and creativity to every song you've found the right guy! Every song is a new look with unique musical elements so you won't get bored.

Bro, you have no idea how RIGHT you are when you talked about a HUGE range of emotions through his discography. This man is what I would call a Modern Day Bard! He hits all genres with a story and feeling behind every song. Extremely talented and knowing how to make you think about feel something more than just bopping your head. I would love you to check out the 3 part song compilation, "The Story of Jenny and Screech" All three songs only take about 12 mins, but the story telling is amazing. You will NOT be disappointed.

Welcome to the RENaissance! Ren is an incredible rapper, but he's also an amazing singer! His storytelling is also next level. Check out THE TALES OF JENNY AND SCREECH (FULL), Genesis, The Hunger, The Illest of our Time, Sick Boi, and his duets with Chinchilla HOW TO BE ME (LIVE), and CHALK OUTLINES (LIVE) are also incredible!

Scru! Finally on the Ren train... You're in for a treat and I'll watch every single reaction. I bet within 1 month, your playlists will be loaded up with Ren's catalogue.

Ren's a wildcard man, here's some good stuff by him Rap: The Hunger, Animal Flow, Illest of our time Singing like he's better than us: Chalk Outlines ft CHINCHILLA (Live), How to be me ft CHINCHILLA (Live) A trilogy Bardcore Rap/song story that immerses you with the performance: The Tale of Jenny & Screech He's got other good songs out there including some street performances with a band he was in called The Big Push but I'm telling you you'll probably fall down the Ren rabbit hole like a bunch of other people, and it isn't bad LMAO Good Reaction tho Scru Love u

Dude, welcome to the Ren train! I just got on at the 'one month ago' station. Awesome reaction as always! You are totally right to hope that Ren has more songs that take your through multiple experiences, because he totally does. 'Hi Ren' has theatrical play vibes, but if you want to see him REALLY rap, listen to 'The Hunger', 'Animal Flow', 'Illest of our time' and 'Losing It (Fisher Retake)', 'Money Game pt.1' and 'Money Game pt.2', just to name a few. For an even more theatrical experience, watch his trilogy "The Tale of Jenny & Screech". It's a set of three songs that all tell a story (they should be watched in one video to make the most out of it). To get some goosebumps and better see his vocal range, listen to 'Chalk Outlines'. 'Hi Ren' is a bit of a weird song to discover Ren through, because if you don't watch more of his music, you might think that he only does this kind of stuff, but he basically does it all. He writes his own songs, he makes his own beats and he produces the final music by himself. This alone got me hooked on his music. When you take into account that a lot of his songs are done live and the videos are filmed in one take, it really makes you look at Ren as a wildly talented artist...which he is. Really hope to see more Ren reactions from you! Take care!

You are 100% correct, he does it all. There's not one song I could tell you was just one genre. He sing sings, he does storyteller songs, he does mega bar Raps, old school hip hop. He is a musical genius and I don't throw that out lightly

He really isn't "preaching" anything, he doesn't push any beliefs of that sort out there, just speaks from his experiences and his trials & tribulations. After he was misdiagnosed for all those years he is finally getting the right medical treatment for the Lyme disease he has. All of his music is different, there's not just 1 that is like the next and I love that!

The tale of jenny and screech, it's a trilogy dont split it into 3 videos watch all 3 at once the storytelling and skill is on another level

I tripped over 2 cats & kicked a foot stool running to this vid! I had to hear ur thoughts on Ren & I appreciate ur honest opinion & u didn't disappoint. If u decide to go on the journey of Ren you'll see he's not one thing or one way. Every song is totally diff & idk if he has a genre... his style is very new to me. I respect it & i really enjoy it. I will b eagerly waiting to see if u dive more into his discography & if so I can't wait for u to get to Illest of Our Time. Ty Scru!❤️🔥

Damn! Been waiting on this Scru! He uses the Christian markers and terminology in not a religious way but to help convey the battle that cant be won. Dark and light, its almost out of his hands with regards to wining. Its a metaphor for his own battle with his health. Misdiagnosed for having lymes disease and journey with wrong medications. Love you bro

That was a great, authentic reaction. Ren can rap with the best of them, and his songs are all over the place, all of them worth checking out. I recommend "The Hunger", "Power", "Losing It", "Genesis", and "Love Music Part 3" if you want to see more of his rapping.

Some background on Ren. He became seriously ill in 2010, just after he had been signed by Sony records. He was half way through the album but was so ill he couldn't carry on. His illness was undiagnosed/misdiagnosed for 6 or 7 years, leaving him stuck in bed for up to 23 hours a day. In 2016 he was correctly diagnosed with Lyme Disease and he had a couple of stem cell transplants which greatly improved his health. But because of the years of incorrect treatment he has been left with a badly damaged immune system and some brain damage. He is currently getting specialist medical treatment in Canada which will likely take at least 6 months

5:38 you hit the nail on the head. This once in a generation artist does it all 🤯 He's got bars for days, flow switches that give you concussion, deeply emotional lyrics, fun songs and political ones too. You have just stumbled head first into the biggest rabbit hole I have come across in my life. Buckle up, enjoy the ride and remember to bring snacks cos this is gonna take a while 🐰🕳️

Much better commentary than other "reactions". I've watched about ten of these for this song and you're the only one I subbed to. Keep it up

Interestingly enough, Ren doesn’t really abide by religious values. He’s just fascinated by their iconography and influence. He’s said himself that he’s more agnostic than anything.

Ren is a monstar (a monster and star put together)...the tale of jenny and screech (full version) is epic..his story telling is top notch...he calls his style "bardcore" like an old timey bard telling stories and stuff

This is the kind of artistry that gives "broken" people hope. Ren, through this performance piece, has become to a lot of people exactly what he stated in the song, "...the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on the rope". So powerful, so impactful. The song structure itself is incredible. It starts off as a battle between his positive (Angel) and negative (Demon) aspects, the negative then makes an overpowering last ditch effort to reign supreme, tearing free and trying to take control, but ultimately fails as the final act, being the "God" aspect, emerges Triumphant, though still acknowledging and accepting that it will ALWAYS be a battle because we are all "a coin with 2 different sides". It's a beautifully cathartic and raw musical masterpiece. Ren is truly special. Welcome to the Ren rabbit-hole, it's a trip worth taking. This was the 4th take he did and yes, it was done live. Wait until you hear some of his other stuff, especially his storytelling ("The Tale of Jenny & Screech"). You haven't even touched the breadth of this young man's talent yet. The pig character (imo) represents the doctors and therapist who have essentially butchered him for years through their misdiagnosis. It's the system that focuses on peddling more pills than on genuinely trying to help to fix broken/ill people, caring more about profit than individual health. The bastardization of the hippocratic oath. He literally thought he was going insane because he was told repeatedly that the pain and symptoms he was experiencing were all in his head (psychosomatic). He had reached a point where he literally resigned himself to dying before he reached 30. Turns out he had Lyme's disease the whole time and it ran rampant through his system for 10 years, even to the point of causing brain damage. Ironically, if Ren hadn't gone through what he has, would he have ever made the art he has? There's no question that his suffering has shaped his music and now he's finally getting the recognition he undoubtedly deserves. I've said it before, I'll say it again, Ren is special.

I just found him 2 months ago and been on a binge ever since.

I have NEVER clicked on a reaction so fast, i love it man i hope you dive into his catalog i know you appreciate musicianship as much as rap and i think he does well displaying both

Ren has been battling with mental and physical illness for the better part of a decade and most of the music he's released lately is discussing in a very interpretive way. Not even just the lyrics, but the video production, etc too. If you want more lyrical stuff from him, you should check out some more of his older songs or if you want recent stuff, illest of our time / sick boi is better.

You have no idea just how many experiences his music has. Literally everything. And all of them slap

I’ve been requesting this for so long, so glad you finally did it!

He was in a band called “The Big Push” and they did a blend of “Who Shot the Sheriff” and “Road to Zion”. And it was phenomenal!

I’m so glad you finally reacted to Ren!! I’ve been waiting for you to do this!! He’s my favorite artist rn!

What's gonna blow your mind is that every Ren joint you listen to is going to be completely different than the other Ren joints. This guy is a cheat code. He's a true artist who can do it all.

I can’t wait to watch more of your reaction videos. I love your commentary and insight.

Love the honest reaction! Ren rapping- Losing it The Hunger Animal Flow Genesis Ren singing- Chalk outlines (really anything with Chinchilla) Busking videos (street performance) Ren storytelling- Jenny/Screech/Violets tale **There's a lot more**

PLEASE check out his other songs and his backstory! This song is amazing, but wait till you see him REALLY RAP!!! - "Illest of our Time" and "The Hunger" are great examples! (Also, this song was single take live)

This was One take and done live 👍🏼

Ren is absolutely an artist through and through, not just a musician. When you dive into his music he's brilliant. If you want to hear his range you definitely need to check out the full trilogy The tale of Jenny and Screech and I shot the Sheriff with his band The Big Push.

This track and its video are 🔥 LOVE IT! Ren truly is a lyrical alchemist and produces all of his own beats. Check out The Hunger for straight-up technical expertise, Losing It for some fun flows and rhymes, Genesis, Money Game Pt. 1 & 2, and/or Sick Boi for their message, Chalk Outlines and How To Be Me (both live and featuring Chinchilla) for beautiful vocals, and the Jenny and Screech Trilogy for his pure, evocative storytelling ability. This man is a musical and artistic genius! He doesn't do mediocre, period.

Every song ist complete different. "Genisis", "the Hunger" and "illest of Our time" are my favorites

that was cool scru! i haven't dug into his other things yet. I'm super happy to experience it with you!

You're gonna love Ren's journey. I'm gonna love watch it happen. All relevant clues have probably been said already. Liked and subbed. Big love from Spain

Great reaction 👏👏👏👏Cannot wait for you to experience what this guy has to offer, it's truly breathtaking. Subscribed 👌

Oh my gosh holy crap! I'm so excited that you're checking out Ren! You are going to freaking love his content because this boy can spit bars! Prepare to see him on your channel because he is big on responding to reactors and giving love back

Fisher rap retake, money game 1 & 2, tale of Jenny and screech full, illest of our time, genesis, chalk outlines… dude goes through so many styles and is so incredibly talented. Also does many of his songs live in a one take.

I love that you're asking these questions. Enjoy the trip❤

Ren is an all round lyrical genius and nice guy to boot. I've subscribed as loved your reaction and can't wait to see how to take to more of his genres and collabs. The Tale of Jenny n Screech is a must, as is The Hunger and Crutch

Brilliant spot on reaction to this amazing artist, you will not believe how versatile he is for sure!

So excited for this reaction! Ren is an insanely talented artist, get ready for the rabbit whole. So many greats songs🔥🔥🔥🔥

Absolutely love yoyr stuff man, Ren does literally every genre, would love to see you do, losing it or insomnia

I swear I recommend this a few months ago! So glad you’ve got to hear ren!

Love Ren. He's so talented. I pray he gets the recognition he deserves . He's amazing

Please do more Ren! He is so talented and also his fans will gift you with views because we love watching people react to his greatness !

Great reaction. I really hope you carry on your Ren journey. You are in for a great ride!

I have followed Ren for many years. He has a huge catalogue and it covers many different genre's and styles, I am sure you would find it all unique. Love your reaction when you smiled I new you were hooked. Enjoy the journey

Ren is amazing artistry. He can do anything! I have never been this excited about music until I found him. Along with Chinchilla and Sleep Token!

Hit his stuff up - he can rap rap, sing, story tell. No dis to NF but Ren is so real. NF has highly produced videos. Ren is raw

I’m so happy you finally reacted to him. He is the most diverse artist I have ever seen. And is so good at everything he does

Its certainly more creative than sitting in a dull room picking holes in someone elses work

Ren is the epitome of versatility. Period! You should do humble next for a feel good island vibe singing song or life is funny or hunger for top tier rapping. Or I shot the sheriff, road to zion and hip hop mash up. Either way there's over 12 years of pure top tier music and homage.

YOU'RE FINALLY ON THIS!!! you gotta watch so much of his shit. The hunger, Losing it (fisher retake), animal flow, illest of of our time, tale of jenny and screech. SO MUCH CONTENT!! Really hope you get deep into the ren rabbit hole

Been dying for him to get noticed, he’s such a talented artist and deserves to acknowledged🔥 :)

he can rap, sing, play instruments, beat box, tell stories god tripped and threw the whole bucket of talent over him 😅 any way your late to the ren party! 😂🎉

*Losing it - Ren *

Hungry, Genesis, animal flow and losing it are all 🔥 and bangers

W'hooo welcome aboard the REN train ... strap in.. its an amazing ride .... ❤ your reaction Thank you 🤘

Love that you're reacting to Ren, amazing artist, very talented. I'd suggest listening to animal flow, his new single when you get a chance, really shows off some of his lyricism, flow and just talent I'm general.

Fuck yes! Ren is dope as shit and only gettin better! I’ve been obsessed over the past few weeks and I’m very intrigued

Great Reaction, you got Ren so quick, new sub

Can yall believe that REN played the guitar and sang this live all in one take for this video? NOTHING recorded all in one take......its absolutely insane

This song is very relatable. Everyone can take away something from this. You shared what you took away from this. I do kind of think you missed that Ren was sharing his struggle with his several serious health issues, especially his mental illness. The psychosis he mentions at the end. There was some humor in this which you spotted, but it was his dark inner demon mocking him that was funny. Dark Ren was telling him that he is not great, not original, this song has been done before. The dark Ren everyone has in them to some extent. It is that part of you that forces you too doubt yourself, tells you you are not good enough, to quit trying because you are never going to succeed. The line "Some people know me as the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose one the rope" references when he decided to step back from suicide. This topic has been dealt with before, but not like this. That's why this has been viewed nearly 13 million times in 5 months since it was released. Plus this was shot in one take, whic 3 cameras.

This is one of his more personal songs. A lot of his shit is different and you worded it perfectly with "experiences" cause that's literally what he produces. While he's an incredible rapper this man is a wild card and is multi talented. Its mind blowing all the things this guy can do. You know that theres always that guy like an athlete that can pick up whatever ball and just be good at that sport. Well hes like that with genre in music.

Love your reaction! Thank you very much for it! 🔥🔥

FINALLY!!!!! Go down the rabbit hole Scru! Literally EVERYTHING ren has made is amazing. He is truly something else, a pure artist

Sick boi by REN . It's more rapping then this one. ❤☺️

This reaction made me realise how defensive over Ren I've become in the last few months! I hope you take the time to discover more. Tales of Jenny and Screech full version, The Hunger, Power, Losing it, What you Want, Money Game 1&2, Sick Boi, Chalk Outlines the list of bangers is endless!

New subscriber. You can’t go wrong with his catalog. It is extremely diverse. Ren is 🔥

This was powerful content and reaction, brother. One of f your best.

knucks - home

i really hope you check under the song hi ren and read about his life. He has been very sick misdagnosed a bunch of times, close to dying and a lot more

I just today found your channel today. Thank you for giving Ren a listen. I am subscribing in the hope you will do more ren please👍🦇

Big fan of you both. Glad you did this.

The tales of Jenny and screech are literally amazing, I know you’d love those, animal flow just came out and it’s so good

I love your reactions man, but I have one suggestion: When you pause, go back a few secs when you resume. There was like 3 times in this song that you paused right in the middle of a fire bar and I'm pretty sure you missed the punch.

Always fascinating to watch a new reactor’s take on Hi Ren and then take the journey into his wonderland. Look forward to you following the rabbit. It’s a deep eclectic dive

Excellent reaction. Welcone to Ren, subbed in anticipation of more Ren, Chinchilla,Big Push and Sam Tompkins....you'll be here forever now😂 I also recommend reading his community page. Ren is extremely humble, loves reactors, will always clear a copyright strike, and has a huge loyal fan base

Haven’t finished the video yet, but I do hope you’ll do more Ren. He’s extremely talented

Wait until you hear him rap rap. And take into consideration that he produces all his own beats and does all his videos as live 1 takes. Respect.

Subscribed. You nailed it

Glad you found Ren, great reaction 👍🙏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Ren is popping right now, glad you got on board. He is not hip-hop Ren is music

Ren - The Hunger if you wanna hear something different

Ren is dope his brother is dope also.. and his band is crazy

Scru been wait’n for ya to see Ren. Buckle up and enjoy the ride, I’ll be here for it all cause I respect your opinion as a dope rapper yourself. He makes his beats, beat boxes, produces, raps, sings, and he is a genuine dude that will comment on your channel. He is also in a band called THE BIG PUSH. I recommend you check out their cover of I shot the sheriff/ road to Zion / hip hop. Thanks for recognizing his talent, he deserves it. Peace out.

The Hunger, Genesis, sick boi, illest of our time, Blind eyed with Sam Tompkins, anything with Chinchilla, Tales of Jenny and Screetch plus Violet lol……. I could go on and on😊 So glad you are reacting to REN, even though it’s not over lol.

I saw his song it was a tiktok ad it was so bad

Ren has many themes & many musical genres. The pig at the beginning appears in a lot of his videos. He's referencing the cult classic book , Animal Farm by George Orwell. In the book, animals take over the farm from the abusive farmer. The pigs then take over & abuse their power too. They write a manifesto on the wall , the most memorable line being "Some animals are more equal than others".

yo bro love your reaction been waiting for you to do this anything he does is soo good he's the most creative artist I've ever seen

Love this reaction, love seeing you experience ren for the first time.
