    Keep in mind that Jenny & Screech are only 14 when this story started. Then Violet had them in 2005 and 14 years later the twins are repeating who their parents are and they weren't even raised by their parents. Screech is violent like his father and Jenny is quiet and timid like Violet. Such a great story teller.
    I loved this reaction guys!

      And Violet's mother stayed quiet while her father abused their daughter (possibly because she had already been victimized by the father). So there are at least three generations repeating the cycle.

      What I also really like, is Ren does SO many tie ins everywhere, but he straight up foreshadows this in the lyrics by stating, "History repeats itself" during Violates tale, prior to the big reveal at the end.

    Ren wrote the Tale of Jenny and Screech together, but released them as separate videos. Jenny’s Tale was released first and he built up hype for Screech’s Tale by pretending his phone was stolen by a masked figure (Screech) during an Instagram video, and then he began releasing Instagram stories in the character of Screech - behaving in an antisocial way with a personality that was quick to turn violent.
    As he committed to the character he lost a lot of Instagram followers who didn’t understand it was an act, and Instagram repeatedly threatened to shut down his account.
    Following the success, he wrote and released Violet’s Tale. You can tell Jenny was originally a bit older, but making them twins was a dramatic and sensational way of reflecting the cyclical nature of abuse, with Jenny freezing like her mother would and Screech quick to be violent like his father.
    Not a true story, but more a representation of what happens in society with a cycle of abusive relationships.
    Fucking phenomenal.

  • @TheSyncos

    Legend goes: The first two parts were inspired by an article Ren had read about a 14 year old kid who had stabbed and killed a prostitute. Which was buried on page 6. Wasn't even headline news. Which was a tragedy. Violet's tale came out a couple years later, and I believe that was just his way of pulling the story together and adding a message about the cycle of violence.

    I've been legit BINGING reactions to this for 3 days now, absolute hours of this and after rewatching yours here I've finally realized something about Violets tale. He hits the hall for the reverb when he starts talking about Violet, so she gets the reverb. He hits the stairwell when he talks a little about Stevie and he gets no reverb, then again a line about Violet with the most beautiful reverb "She never stood a chance". His voice was emphasized when talking about her because she was quiet. Because she never had a voice of her own the narrator so to speak lent her his. Once again, fucking chills.

    As I've heard it told, Ren saw a news story about a young man that slashed and killed a young prostitute. The reporter ended the reportage with the phrase, "It's such a shame". Ren then built the rest of the story to take it from "it's such a shame" to "OH MY LORD!"
    I'm not sure about the first two, how close they were, but Violets tale was released a few years after Screech's tale. Ren also has some IG shorts compiled on his Chanel that he did as promotion for one of the releases (not sure which one but I'll go with Screech's Tale). In them, he "has his phone stolen" and "Screech" proceeds to record multiple shorts of his street life. In those you meet the gang, including his girl he called and Patrick. Interestingly Patrick and Screech's girl seem abnormal close throughout and it culminates with Screech and another hoodlum trying to rob a house while Patrick can not be reached and Screech's girl is mysteriously absent. The robbery goes south and Screech escapes with a large kitchen knife in the finale. Thus, there is much speculation the Patrick was not home because he was with Screech's girl who did not want Screech to come over in Screech's tale.
    Ren did it so well he lost followers and IG nearly banned his account.

  • @jedmundsIV
    @jedmundsIV Рік тому +184

    So, I can’t remember the exact incident, but apparently Ren saw a story on the news about a young boy that stabbed a woman and was trying to wrap his head around what could lead a kid to do something so horrible. That’s where Jenny’s tale originally came from.
    He wrote Screech’s Tale and Violet’s Tale years later, and those were his own original additions to the story. (Not 100% on this as I’m just remembering a comment on another video explaining it).
    Seriously though, loved the reaction! Really glad you took time to do such a long video. The Tale of Jenny and Screech is an absolute masterpiece of performance art. Tragic and depressing, but it just draws you in completely.
    Thanks for such a wonderful and detailed reaction!

He said the sound mixing took a long time to get right on violets tail since each room and hallway had different acoustics.

    Great reaction to this masterpiece fellas. They all came out separately Jenny's Tale in Feb 2019, Screeches Tale in Sept 2019 and Violets Tale in July 2022.
    The fact that the first 2 tales were released in 2019 ties in with Violets story set in 2005 when she gave birth to Jenny and Screech as they were both 14yrs old in 2019
    Ren has another tale written already. It is totally separate to these tales but follows along the same lines of Shakespearian story telling. It is also about a male character.

    You should watch my favourite Ren.... Crutch (with Bibi). He wrote it 6 years ago before he had the Lyme's diagnosis and was being told his illness was all psychological. He'd been in and out of hospital, had a breakdown and was seriously questioning how anyone (like his girlfriend Bibi) would stay with him because of his medical/psychological issues. It's hauntingly beautiful. Ren (on piano) can really get you in the feels.

    What's also amazing about this story is you can find many threads to pull. Screech robbed and killed his sister, he didn't seem to know that which tells us they were either both raised in the system or at least separately. She felt uneasy that day, was she able to sense her twin? She walked that street a thousand times and was in high heels at 14yrs old. Did she make a living working the streets?
    Screech knocking on Patrick's door but he is not home. Screech calls girlfriend she says she is "busy" is that she is actually busy or is she with Patrick that's why he is so pissed not just because he lost a place to lay low?
    Again, so eerie they were born the same day side by side and died the same day side by side, and to each other they were strangers, just tied together by a history of violence.
    Edit: Also Jenny and Violent were very quiet people who had almost a fear paralysis instinct not a fight or flight.

    In one of his Twitch streams, Ren talked about this song. He mentioned that there was a period of a few weeks where he was just tapping that out repeatedly, as he watched movies and such, in order to strengthen his fingers to the point that he could play that smoothly on the acoustic.

    Awesome reaction guys. Been looking forward to this one for ages!
    In terms of the truth to the story, if I remember correctly, there was an incident in England where a boy stabbed and killed a sex worker in the streets and as the story unfolds you found out both of them were unfortunately 14.
    Ren released both Jenny and Screechs tale right after and then invented Violets tale to tie everything together.
    Man's an absolute genius. There's so many lines than have so many different meanings. Multiple listens are definitely needed to fully grasp everything!

    I discovered Ren about a week ago and he is now my favourite of all the time (as of tdy); i mean... he is so good in so many different aspects.
    I would not listen to him like i do with pretty much all other songs on a daily basis, I'll need to sit and watch him perform on a screen to get the full experience.
    He's so unique in:
    - his singing and melody voices --> so particular and delicate, love them
    - his talking / rap skills --> velar words and so many different tempos
    - his singing overall --> he's able to sign multiple styles so well in my opinion
    - not to mention his lyrics --> i mean ... they speak for themeselves
    - he himself is such a good actor/performer in his videos
    - the cinematography --> as well, it's so on point and so well thought, but simple/minimal at the same time.
    I agree with practically all of their comments regardin him and his overall skills (from other videos also), as well as sharing their entusiasm and their amazement as the story (because that's what his songs are) unfolds.
    I'm just amused
    (side note: sry if my english isn't that good/clear)

    Been waiting for this one for sure! I absolutely love people seeing this for the first time. Ren is so talented and pulls you in like crazy with these tales. He has a new tale coming but it doesn't connect to these three. Ren did a whole Instagram stint as screech and you find out Patrick is with Screech's girl which is why they were both busy. Just a little bit of info to give even more depth. Great reaction guys! Thanks for doing this one!

      I was just coming to mention this. The instagram doesn't have any music but in it, Ren made it look like his camera was stolen during a shoot. Then over the next week 'Screech' was posting short videos of his antics. It's an interesting look into more of the back story. There is a video of the all the IG stories here on youtube.

    Thank you for the random fact at the end I had to go look that up because it exploded my brain (Australia is wider than the moon!?) hahaha! Great video. I think the reason Violet's tale sounds so much like "Hi, Ren" is because it is written closer to the time he wrote that track. "Violet's Tale" was actually written way after the first two tales and attached at the end later. LOVED the breakdown, sorry it was so intense, go get some sunlight. Vitamin D helps :P lmao.

    Ren call this style Bardcore and here's the origin story of the trilogy 🤩😁🤯
    This wasn't originally a trilogy story. Ren read in the paper one day with a small article about a 14 yr old boy killing a young prostitute in an attempted robbery and then being shot and killed by the police later that evening. It disturbed him, it was during a time in London when knife crimes were soring. So he set out to write a commentary on not just senseless violence, but on how desensitized we are in today's society. This wasn't big news, it wasn't even front page, being buried somewhere 0n pg.6 or 7. The main example of this is in the words he ends both Jenny and Screech's Tales with "It's such a Shame". We say these words all to often and just move on without a second thought. The article quoted the lead inspector at the scene saying " So Young, Its such a shame" .
    Violets Tale was written over 2 years later adding another layer of commentary by Ren. Not only generational violence but making us think of how both these lives be so cursed. Born out of violence on the same day and then both killed with brutal violence on the same night. Also, his lyrics have multiple meanings if read in between the lines you'll more then likely hear something that'll make you think. Here's an example of things that made me go Hmm...🤔🤔
    Example: Jenny has the same traits as her mother Violet, quiet, voiceless, and timid. Where as Screech mirrors his father Stevie in every way, Loud, obnoxious, and easily prone & provoked to violence. They didn't know one another and had never met their biological parents. Yet, what made these kids so much like their parents? Was it simply Nature, inherited traits in their genetic make-up or Nurture, being brought up in the broken system of broken children?
    Love your channel, Cheers 🥂
