My brother, I love this poem but men’s mental health has a direct correlation to the systems, ideologies and expectations that MEN create from outdated gender roles!

Ive watched several reactions abd I've heard this song a bunch now and I still get the frisson response multiple times in the song. My frisson response is triggered by a lot of songs, writing etc. Its why I listen and read so much... but this song has tons of frisson points with out repeats!

Would love to see you react to Tom MacDonald - he’s an amazing lyricist and poet too with such stories to tell and the passion to tell them well

🔥timeout. Glad you are sitting down watching this 🤯

Amazing reaction, great reacton cheers to you:-)

I am a 60yo gay polyamorous asexual transman who lives as a hermit because of so many things but added to this is the sudden manifestion of 2 congenital mitochondrial cytopathies which are basically cellular chronic fatigue syndromes. I have been through hell in this life but finding this guy and Livingston today have shifted a lot for me.

6:15 and where did her eyebrows go?

New to your channel and someone who is also great at combining lyric and story poetry, Jack Johnson. Especially sleep through the static.

Jennys tale was inspired by a news article in the paper where a boy kills a 14 year old prostitute, headline said “it’s such a shame” like in the songs. The rest was written by ren to fill in the story

Not the Donnie Thornberry edit 😂😂

Please react to Alysia Harris and Joshua Bennett really the entire Strivers Row collective

You didn’t say ADHD. It’s okay, just saying. ❤️

I feet this song and 5 points of view.

That was some pretty good beatboxing for that headset microphone probably plugged into a laptop.

🔥🔥

When he rang that girl i met the guy he rang Ren didnt ring a girl he rang a homeless guy from Brighton (rens mate) he said sorry to him after .......interesting fact Genius

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 BUFFALO STAAAAAND ALLLLL THE WAY UP!!!✊🏾🦬❤️💙

Thank you for reactioning to my poem and it was both of my parents 😢 😭 thank you for listening 🙏

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MACK!!!

There is no better Freestyler. Never was. Never will be.

I recently had a very close friend commit suicide and hearing this for the first time broke my soul. I could handle the song initially because it reminded me of my own experience with suicidal thoughts but once we got to the loss section I almost fell to my knees. We were friends for around 20 years and she’ll forever be in my heart. We love you Sharray RIP.

My darling Sara is also one of my faves from him ❤

Harry v em be a sick battle

🔥This. Eloquent, perspective, juxtaposition, word play, Hope. 💛

And that’s why I believe us poets need an analytical eye to look at our work. You made discoveries about things I did by accident (divinity).

This is one of my favorite poems! The Bee uses they/them pronouns btw

What I like about the poem is that Dax knows why he drinks and he tells us why. My father never told me why he drank I thought it was because of me

You should do please dont kill yourself

That was crazy😢 a person calls for help and get killed. There is no redemption for that. Beautiful poem ❤

You perfectly exemplified my reaction at first hearing his space-dust / raw material bar 🤣🤯

I might be a bit late to comment but I must say I'm one of the few who I swear on anything, I cry everytime I watch this video. I've been suffering by EVERY SINGLE WORD Clayton speaks on this, and yes, sometimes or most often I'm wishing to just off myself because of the physical pain anxiety brings. I honestly haven't met anyone still alive who's been going through the exact thing I'm going through and that also makes me feel lost.. 😢

The devils dance, The pendulum that ever swings

Not even 30 seconds in he was hooked

Its pretty wild if it wasn’t for that tick none of us would have heard these bangers

I think you might have missed Harry using the word solar, "soul-ar". Harry's so good.

Btw Hiren, is a name in Hindu that means Lord Genius or Lord of Diamonds (hard, ubreakable) Think there is any mistake the printing of the name of the song (HI REN) almost bleeds into a single word?

Amazing performance and analysis! Really love your energy!

thankyou so much for this video !! This is my all time FAVORITE poem in the whole world it warms my heart to know it’s being appreciated

Youngblood: This better be fire! Ren: I got you, bro.

this is one of my favorites, also “More Often Than Sometimes”

Saw someone comment once on this video that Ren ends the song on an ‘unresolved chord’ which they suggested indicated that the fight isnt over, which to me was a great way to look at it

it’s the live performance’s for me *chefs kiss*

I love your reaction x

I saw someone refer to him as a modern day bard.... I think it fits

I’m sure someone else has told you by now but I believe that the animals represent orwellian thought. Specifically the book Animal Farm which is about animals taking over the world.

I wanted to say that your description of stem cells was perfect especially for people outside the health care field. But you are incorrect in saying that the conditions mentioned are rare. The numbers high even when many victims being misdiagnosed for years. The funding for research isn’t there because the projected profit margin is low. Pharmaceutical companies, make far more money, treating the symptoms of these diseases than they ever could get back by developing a cure.

About the pig mask, I can't help but think of Animal Farm and what the pig represents there. But i dunno.

💙💙💙🔥🔥🔥 #FreeSickBoi

Thanks for a great reaction. I'm not sure if anyone replied to your question about the video. But yes. Ren did mention that this video was his first look into AI. Also, I'm sure many people have explained about the pig mask, but my understanding is that it represents capitalism and greed.
