Despite being unable to tour or promote and having no label, management or backing, being deliberately a fully independent artist and despite spending the entire year far from home, in a clinic in Canada, undergoing experimental treatments, in an attempt to repair some of the damage to his body and brain... Despite all that and more, he watched his album enter the UK charts at number 1, knocking Drake off the top spot! Thereby becoming the first fully independent artist to achieve a number 1 UK album! It also went top 10 in quite a few other countries. So the line doesn't hold true anymore, though at the time it was true. It's been quite a year for Ren and a surreal one too, almost watching it all unfold from the sidelines whilst undergoing treatment. He fully deserves his success! He's an incredible talent and a remarkable human being! :)
I have yet to hear him on the radio - it's nuts how few people in the UK know of him even now but he had a no 1 album. Unprecedented and kinda shows how labels control airtime not DJs. I really thought more would be playing him by now. 😡
Someone, elsewhere, said that it was a mix of both Brighton and Bristol. Both would make sense as Ren was living in Brighton and Sam in Bristol at the time.
I've been watching your entire catalog now, and you've gotten yourself a new subscriber. And I can make you a bit happier informing you that by now Ren can show off, much deserved, a No. 4 on the Emerging Artists chart (amongst other charts) 🖤 Much love From STHLM, Sweden
County to county. And their tiny compared to any US state. Double deckers like you saw are just local buses. They don't pick peoe up at a depot just bust stops on the street! ❤❤❤
You are the first reactor that I've heard that recognized that bar about hearing love dying through the wall. That hit me hard. Great reaction! You got my support and I'll spread your channel to my circle 🫶
Hamlets and township are the equivalent of US cities and towns... from what I have been told... Your reactions are 🔥, enjoy them almost as much as the content your reacting to! Happy New Year, friends!
Most cities double decker / single decker, like greyhound on longer trips, but trains more popular. Incidentally - his little hand dance and the end is a joke, it’s kinda clever clothing cliche rave moves from the day - Ren Knows that.
Most our buses are double decker but we do have single decker too. We have coaches (like your greyhounds) just different companies. I think when Ren said his style is old school he meant his fashion style as he lives in 90s gear. He defo has a top ten now as SickBoi album took number 1 in the U.K. 🖤
City to city and cross country/international busses are called coaches, and yes they are double height with room for luggage under. Nornal busses can be single or double, depending on how busy the route is.
1:38 this video came out five days before my comment, he dropped a number 1 album in the uk a month or two ago. still without really trying by the way.
Nice nice ¡! Reaction and coments. Yes your intuition is right. The Uk ( United Kingdom) has only 4 states : Wales, scotland, Ireland and England. And each one of these states are conformed by cities. So England contains big medium and small cities, not states. A group of cities part of a region inside a state, conforms a province. (*) Russia and the USA are 2 of the few and also the biggest countries in the world that are divided in " federal States" because of their gigantic size ( landmass). Few Other countries like Germany ( 16 states) are also divided in federal states, but no country in the world matches the number of states the US has ( 50) or Russia has (86, being russia almost twice the size of the US )... Hope these little geography class helps.. Peace Keep going ✌
They're not states they're constituent countries of the United Kingdom. The next layer, officially, is the regions, NW England, East Anglia, London etc but in reality very little is done via this level, with the exception of London. The next level down is the borough councils and county councils. Most city councils are a further administrative layer down but some of the larger ones are on the same level. It's furtherther complicated by some regions and cities having mayors, who split power with the councils. At the lowest and most local level, you have the parish councils. There are various local, often ancient, rights and traditions that exist in various small parts of the country, complicating matters still further. As does the existence of various quangos, with varying degrees of authority. Let's face it, our local government is a mess! lol. :)
Always gotta shout out to award winning cinematographer, Samuel Perry-Falvey, in the drivers seat, and with his newly opened Square Sun Studios ❤

Ren got a #1 now. Sick Boi #1 in the UK!
He’ll have to change these lyrics now. Retake on his own song.
Great reaction 👍👍 Humble ft Eden Nash is one of my favourites
He's actually number 1 in the UK but still no radio play.
He’s had radio play Iv heard him a few times. Usually Uninvited 🖤

This is Brighton UK and England is known for their double decker busses.

@@MsCheesemonster13 yes. I think Sam had to go out to get some more footage

This means a lot thank you and Happy New Year !

Since then, he has had the #1 position on the charts in the UK.
"Never had a Top 10" at time of this video, but the Sick Boi album debuted at #1 in UK in October (2023)
This song 2022
Sick Boi Album by Ren #1 in the UK 2023
Top 10 in many countries elsewhere

Oh and it’s counties here rather than states.
Villages, towns, cities, counties.
We have Megabus coaches too.
Eg I live in Walsgrave which is the area in Coventry (the city) in West Midlands (the county) in England (the country obviously 😂)
City to city and cross country/international busses are called coaches, and yes they are double height with room for luggage under.
Nornal busses can be single or double, depending on how busy the route is.
Most coaches are single decker too...
Do what you want by Ren. You will get the old school bar
Ren is globally known.
Nice donkey kong intro remix!
Subbed for more Ren🔥🔥🔥🔥

🔥🔥❤✌
I hear a lot of old school influence in his music. He's definitely a kid of the 90s.
By old school I think he means Shakespeare old as he coined the term bardcore in reference to his style or genre.
Pleeease do What You Want and Uninvited for suoer fun/naughty Ren! ❤❤❤pippa
I hope you'll be covering more Ren; I'm subscribing in those hopes. You'd probably like Murderer and The Hunger just to name a couple.
ua-cam.com/play/PLUQg8o_quGRyRLA5bnLIiEP4IU_AdmxzA.html Hope you enjoy !
Here for this reaction, 😀, subbed for your Ren journey and beyond! 😊 Much Love!! ❤ (My Happy Song! 😳)
I'm gonna try to catch up tonight!! 😊
Lol we have cities bro but we have counties not states big man
