I'll forever be in your debt for introducing me to Ren ❤
It’s my job and my pleasure! Just enjoying music with us is all I ask for 😊 ❤️
@@CliffBeatsOfficial ❤️❤️❤️
real ones seek out discover on their own
@@thanosdarkseid8695Was he supposed to break into the studio and find the tapes? What level of discovery would pass your test? 😂
🔥
my favorite line there is: "I salute with bars" - honest artist and damn was he showing out at the end of that.
"A man isn't dead as long as his name is still spoken" - Sir Terry 'Pterry' Pratchett ...GNU Terry Pratchett
So on my Nth time watching this and I'm paying attention to the camera work and the insane timing and improv needed for this one-take...
1. timing the lights at the crosswalk
2. lucky bonus of having the walk countdown hit 0 right when Ren stops walking and crosses his arms
3. the way they moved themselves and the framing around those two pedestrians just before going under the bridge...wow
Ren's stuff is often spherical genius, i.e. it's genius no matter how you look at it.
Tbf the traffic lights countdown was unintentional, he said so himself on the original video
Thx. For jumping on this, quick like!! ❤🔥🔥 Much appreciation. ✌️
He said "high-proof juice, like a flaming Sambuca". It is a shot of black licorice flavored liqueur that's on fire when it is served.
"Don't tell me that's it!!!???" Those were my words exactly, followed by a giant NOOOOO I WANT MORE!
Ren did it in half time. Rens track is exactly half the length of the original 😂
Hey Cliff .you know what it is about him, I comment a lot on various Ren vids, sparked up mini conversations with a wide variety of folk from all over this planet, It does not matter if you are a 72 year old Hank Williams fan, a 62 year old metal head, a 50 year old Raver, a 40 year old grunge head right down to younger folk who are already into Rap.... All there for the exact same reason.... "My music is really connecting, when people find it, respect it... " I have never known an artist to be that cross genre and cross generational at the same time, and time after time after time.. He has metal heads listening to Rap, he has rappers listening to classical.... and all done with grace and humility... there is a difference between Greatness and Genius, Greatness is hitting a target no one else can, Genius is hitting a target, no one knew existed.... TTFN
Damn I like if a reactor first listens the whole track through and then listens for the second time and dissects. Props to you man. Great reaction. And ofc great track from Ren 🔥
I cant remember where its from but there is a quote to the effect of 'We all die twice- once when we are burried, and once when our name is spoken for the last time' - so I agree, by paying respect to those who came before that we owe a debt to, we keep them alive in our memmories.
F sake, I'm supposed to be doing paperwork 😂
The lyrics, the flow, the delivery, the performance? All out of this World! As always! :) But all the added audio on the remix, especially the guitar! Just fantastic! :)
Ren is also referencing his own previous songs in homage. As homage
Probably the most original artist in hip-hop today
3:25 Well just to prove your point Cliff I haven’t heard the original before. Since listened to it, thought it was fire and started the album that it’s from. So Nas just got a new fan from Ren
Same here 👏👏❤️
love watching your writer brain breaking down bars.
Cliff I really appreciate you messaging me back about this retake. I love hip hop so much that i couldn't wait for this to drop. You a real one. Much love hermano!!
How did he time that crossing so perfectly?! Even the countdown on the crossing sign going to zero as the beat stops. Perfect! Wow.
Cliff, like you we all wanted MORE. More remix of NAS lyrics and joyful Ren bars. Two minutes was not enough! UGH! Thank you, Cliff, love ya to death....but while you are alive SHOUT OUT to you for what you do!
He killed it as always
✌🏼♥️🇺🇲
Cliff your the most wholesome reactor I know I enjoy your presence
Straight 🔥!
Yeah, on the original video, I was like, " dude, I could have listened to you carry that beat for five more minutes." So good.😁
This was fire! Love his flow and delivery. He is so good. Thank you for getting on this so fast.. you are a rock star, cliff ❤️
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥once again from Ren ❤❤❤
flaming Sambuca
The man's talent is out of this world❤❤
That 🥊 bite of that ear was the fight of that year
this was incredible, so sad it's only 2 mins but I'm just happy to get those 2 mins. that isotope scheme was sick though. much love cliff
I friggin love your reactions Cliff!
❤ #ren
Killed it as alway's 💎🔥🖤
Respect to him & the other absolute legends
Thanks for the breakdown. Enjoyed it. 👍
great reaction! It was cool to see you in Ren's premier, too.
Every time I listen to Ren, I realize how poor my memory is and how much of my vocabulary I’ve lost since swallowing pills for decades for my psychiatric condition. I used to have all of those great, perfectly descriptive words available to me right on the tip of my tongue. Not any more 😢
The song was exactly half the time as the original halftime. Plus tons of other things like dropped on pie day, zero on the lights as the beat drops, and more! He also shouted out realtors like you, with the diamond scheme, supersize me and I’ll supersize the order.
Could listen to this flow all day long!
Thats it ❤🔥 thank you for your great reaction
He filmed this in Calgary, Alberta. He is there getting treatment, 403 area code is southern Alberta.
Great reaction and breakdown Cliff, as usual, not sure if I missed it, but just case, for everyone reading this, hop over to Nas's channel or at least this track, and show him love too. He has a respectable amount of subs at 1.85million, but being the legend he is I think it should be more, and think it would be great if Ren's retake created some new, younger fans not yet hip to Nas, or his greatness and influence on Hip-Hop. ✌️💚
It’s creating some older ones too, 52 & heading to check out Nas ❤
This is great! Thanks, Cliff!
Good to see you in the Premiere chat Cliff 🔥💜 ….this retake is 🔥
Another great reaction from you to another great song from Ren🤩
Thank you ❤
I'm loving this retake. Ren did justice to the beat! I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it; but for those in the USA, the game Snakes and Ladders is better known as Chutes and Ladders here.
Always great to see you in the premiere, I hope you appreciated the different countdown music this week 😂
Pie - released on 3/14 and 3.14
That kid is nasty ! I gotta find more of his shit.
The RIP rap was 🔥 deep
I dig it lol ⚰️
Thanks Cliff, you're so fun to watch with 😊
Nice one Cliff... When it cut to black and you panicked it was over, I 😂 so much, cos I was the same.
Did you get the bit with the traffic crossing countdown...? He crossed the crossing as the countdown dropped, then as he stopped and crossed his arms, the countdown on the lights hit zero. Loved that serendipity!
Love it 🪷🪷🪷❤️💯💯💯💯 So glad you caught this on record.
i love he pays homage to people
It's fire, insane blazing inferno
the line feeding them pie pi is 3.14 today is pi day and its 3rd month
Cliff you know your awesome, just wanted to say i and I am sure many of us appreciate you bro 🌹 🌹 🙏
man that brought me back to being a near teen who just bought that off the rack, think it was my 3rd rap album I bought after my brother gave me his tapes of Public Enemy and NWA lol.
he gave me those tapes at the age of 7(he was 17) btw....my parents had no idea what the hell rap was.
Love your reactions.
Between you and Knox, you have both brought so much joy to my life, so thank you
RIP big RIP Mac RIP Pac RIP Peep RIP rap
What a Great reaction! Thank you so much.
Thank you 🙏❤ Cliff ❤ for your 🐷 Ren - Halftime (Nas Retake) reaction! #ren #nas #sickboi #halftime #calgary #counttozeroseconds #piday #retake
Ren is amazing! Ren is a tremendous talent.Love to Ren
Yo I’m really liking the artists just dropping fun remix tracks and just Fn rap! 🔥🔥
For me chemical reaction scheme was about all of you guys, reaction channels :) Proton is positively loaded but it need negative neutron for reaction to happen, then he says about atom reaction and that reaction channels supersized him, so he will supersize his order as like we are his order, we are the knights that will bring awakening to the world. :D Sorry, my brain goes into quantize mode after hrbz. Am I digging too deep? :P
Western NC and we haven’t had good snows in years 😢😢
Great reaction. This track had so much in it. Loved it. Also Cliff, heads up Chinchilla drops a new track in a few hours. ❤️
Is she? I follow her youtube and haven't seen any notifications of a new track dropping.
Oh you’re good - thanks!!! 😁👍❤️
Ren did incredible!! As always!😏❤
Thanks Cliff great work mate. Peace and love from Australia
A relative of my spouse had a job with local government in the Scottish Highlands, and in winter one of his jobs was snowplowing the roads. Began in the mid 50s and retired in the mid 90s. He had years, decades of photos of accumulated snow twice the height of the equipment and even now there are tall poles along both sides of the the roads to help you see where to drive if it’s snowed again and the plots haven’t caught up yet. They started building ski resorts in the 1960s for new wintertime employment. But by the 70s the pictures weren’t as impressive. Only as high as the snowplow or as high as a man. Now it snows about as little as I used to see in central NC in the 1970s. At first no one thought it was so bad, there had been light years now and then. But then every year was a light snowfall year. To be sure, enough still accumulates on the tops of the mountains that they just stay snowy year round. In recent years the summits only technically still have snow, on the north sides and in protected coves lasting just until the littlest bit of snowfall on the peaks happens briefly as early as September. Not year round snowy peaks. Last year the remaining snow was down to one tiny patch, a wheelbarrow load.
Great reaction Cliff thanks
Thank you Cliff for another great breakdown! ❤
Malaysia New Song Before Trending🔥❤❤
Steady Gang - ( 周星翅Chou Xing Chi )MV❤❤❤❤👍🏻
My favorite song on Illmatic, it'd be dope if he did The Message from It Was Written.
Let’s go REN and CliffBeats!!!!
I appreciate your commentary.
I like the reference to rats and the bubonic plague. That was sick, no pun intended 😅
Loved this mate xx
Thank you, homie❣️
Brilliant, I'm welsh, loved the reaction
Loved it, thank you!
I would love to see Nas react to this
🔥🔥🔥 cliffbeats loved it ❤
Fantastic Cliff
Awesome song, awesome breakdown!!
🏴🏴🏴🏴🇬🇧
And possibly Homage to MCA on Too Many Rappers w Nas Saying I'll never die, because death is the cousin of sleep.
#RIPMCA
Think it might be exactly half as long as the original. No accident there 🔥
Love it can't beat old skool hip hop hats off to ren for bringing it back.. Hope you can do peter kay misheard lyrics..a brilliant routine from a much loved UK comedian 👍 👍
Loved Zebrahead, was one of my favorite movies in the 90s. And yeah Nos had this banger in the soundtrack! Love both versions❤
facts bro in Chicago its every season besides winter
And you're 100% right about global warming. I live in southern alabama, and I remember I was "two tank tops in the winter" (theo von reference, I was poor 😂.) by October every year when I was a kid, until around March or April. Now. It doesn't drop below 70 until late December most of the time.
My first 3 rap albums at 13… EPMD strictly business NaS illmatic and Snoop Dogg doggystyle….. damn those were days!!!
Smooth... like buddah 🔥❤
Let's take that advice and respect some of the greats Cliff. I'd be down for some old school track breakdowns.
CHINCHILLA has just dropped MF Diamond video - you will LOVE it!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Boston the same way with snow. We got 9 inches all year. We used to get that every week at a minimum.
Thank you ❤❤❤❤
❤😂🔥 love you, man!
Love you too!!
Yeap….this is the attention span of your average American. 2 minutes! Thanks Ren…this was 🔥🔥🔥🔥!
This is second time I have heard this and now heard the: "..that's by rats"/"..that's pirates" since it's a sceem about pirates and spreading plaque.
Ren makes Tom MacDonald look like an amateur. He’s just on a different level.
