      To answer your question why do we watch especially ren reactions is perspective, you can learn something from anyone if you take the time to listen. Ren makes you think and relate to the story and everyone can relate to hi ren and pretty much anyone of rens songs, and watching people listen to this song let's you see other people be human and that's beautiful. Much love and enjoy the journey or ren❤

If you would like to explore more and expand your channel, may I suggest a reaction to BABYMETAL. They are unique. Their music has a positive and uplifting message. They have a fun and awesome performance:

      Or:
      MAYA【Live Blu-ray/DVD「BABYMETAL BEGINS - THE OTHER ONE -」"BLACK NIGHT"】

    The Ren rabbit hole has begun!! Keep going down his path and you'll come to find out where his mind is at times. Sometimes, he's in a VERY bad place with his constant pain being misdiagnosed for YEARS! He is a lyrical GENIUS, mastermind of storytelling, and just a wonderful part of this generation. Enjoyed the lovely words and message of encouragement you two! God bless!

    RENEGADE here for a year. I subbed to support you in doing more Ren. Ren is so exquisitely transparent,humble and vulnerable. He has chosen to be the voice of the people made invisible by chronic mental and physical illness. He has learned to dance with his illness and has to struggle with ptsd and adhd, MCAS, POTS and all the damage and autoimmunity caused by Lyme disease. He has lived in pain for 13 years now.

Being a Veteran also this song had a tremendous impact in my as I have been battling Lyme,s Disease, PTSD, Agoraphobia. So glad you reacted to Ren. This is just his tip of the iceberg!!!

    Ren has been one of my favorite artists over the past year or so. He’s so talented and such a unique individual with a very crazy / hard past. His music doesn’t fit into one genre. He also uses his past pains to draw from for his musical inspiration (similar to NF). Thank you guys for doing Ren and I hope you dive more into his music and learn more about him as a person.

    Welcome down the Ren rabbithole. There is no other artist like Ren everything he does is different and so good its not fair on other artists that he is so talented. From him playing with his band The Big Push to his duets and solo songs and rap. Check out Chalk Outlines (Live with Chinchilla) about prescription drugs to his rap about treatment (Sick Boi) his trilogy (Jenny and Screech) will blow you away. His 3 videos on The Money Game are eye opening. Believe me this guy hasnt had a song thats not powerfull and you'll wonder were you under a rock before hearing him.

    Awesome reaction! I've been hoping you would get into Ren. He's been through hell in his life. He was misdiagnosed with being bipolar and all these other crazy things so for almost a decade he was given different meds that made things worse while the whole time his actual disease was getting worse by the year. It got so bad to where he spent 23 hours a day in bed and was on the verge of taking himself out. Finally after nearly 10 years of extreme exhaustion and pain he went to Belgium where even before the doctor took hours blood he diagnosed him just by hearing his symptoms. He has Lyme disease. It's so rare in the UK that even after seeing 50+ doctors and specialists they all didn't know what to look for and most thought he was making it up or pill shopping. Unfortunately he's had pretty serious lasting issues because of it. Lyme disease not treated is a monster. There's only 5 or 6 foods he can eat, he has nerve damage in his hands and feet and brain damage as well. Currently he's been in Canada receiving special treatment for it for the last year I'd say. He got there right as this song blew up in December 2022. He's been around for years but this song resonated with so many people that it exploded and thanks to the reaction community everything else he put out in the past till last week with his "Fred Again" remix has blown up. He was signed to SONY and was recording his first album but that's when he first started getting really sick from the Lyme disease and he didn't know what was going on. SONY had to drop him (it was an agreed on split) and Ren thought his music career was over. Now he's totally independent and doing better than ever.
    Ren though has no genre. He's mainly a singer songwriter who can play guitar, bass and piano. But last year he decided that he loves rap so much he released a rap album and even though he's 100% independent he got the #1 Rap Album in the UK! But he has songs that cover almost every style. He sings alot about mental health. Most of his stuff is done live and in one take. Like this one, Hi Ren he said it was done on 4 takes with no stops or edits. He loves the realness and rawness of a live Performance. He also has a band called The Big Push that broke up when he had to go to Canada but they have AMAZING covers. The best is a Bob Marley, Damien Marley and Dead Prez mash up of "I Shot The Sheriff, Road to Zion and Hip Hop" if you react to The Big Push make sure it's Ren wearing a white tank top and Red Suspenders. That's how you'll know it's the right one AND it's from The Big Push UA-cam page.
    BUT he has another amazing song with him and another amazing singer named Chinchilla. Check out the LIVE version of, Ren X Chinchilla "Chalk Outlines" it's also about mental health and antidepressants ect. There's such a deep rabbit hole with Ren that one days you'll hear acoustic singing Ren, rapping Ren, then Ren sounding just like Bob Marley's. The Big Push also do War Pigs by Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones ect. And you never have to worry about Ren hitting you with copyright strikes. He LOVES the reactors, does interviews with them and even will leave comments on reactions. He's such a down to earth guy who's been through hell but is coming through it better than ever.
    Now to comment on how we all have that negative voice in our heads or why we'll focus on bad comments when there's only a few of them but hundreds of positive comments. Us humans are hardwired with what's called "Negative Bias" to where we feel the sting of a rebuke more than we feel the joy of praise. We pay more attention to and dwell more on bad things that happen and we make them seem more important than we are. We've unfortunately have had this hardwired into our brains since the caveman days. By paying attention to bad, dangerous, and negative threats in the world literally was a matter of life and death. Say we say our friend Joe get eaten by a lion, our brain will remember and dwell on the fact that Joe got eaten so we know not to go up up to the lion and pet it. Or we saw another friend eat some berries and get really sick, so we knew not to eat those berries also. This was the way humans survived. But now unfortunately it just makes us focus on the bad rather than all the good we have. That's why EVERYTHING is so negative these days. That's why the news is ALWAYS one bad story after another. They know the psychology behind negative bias and by having every news story be negative people will watch all day, they'll read mean tweets and argue with people, they'll share and talk about the bad things politicians are doing, they'll repeat how horrible something is. Negative Bias literally uses up more brain power than hearing, sharing or experiencing positive or happy experiences. It's effects relationships because we'll focus on insignificant problems rather than all the good we've experienced with the person we love. When I first learned about Negative Bias I read more into it and the ways to overcome it. By knowing that's how we're hardwired to think, we can be conscious of it and we can better control our thoughts and emotions.
    And as always, I have written a novel haha

    You got a new sub. Ren is one of the most down to earth artists I have seen in my 45 years. He speaks his truth. And so much of it is so relatable to everyone else.
    He can do so many things, guitar, bass, piano, singing, rapping...so much. His library is vast.
    I would recommend several things: 1. Ren - The Tale of Jenny & Screech (Official Music Video)
    2. Ren - Money Game (Parts 1, 2 and 3)
    3. The Big Push - I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop (This is Ren's band)
    One last thing, you talk about grace. I perceive that as treating everyone with the respect and dignity they deserve. Meaning no matter what, treat people with respect and dignity, unless they prove that they do not deserve your respect. Thank you for the reaction. Keep it up.

    Brother Ren is a survivor. He has been to hell and back. His higher calling is to reach down and pull people out of pits and lift them up above himself if possible. And those of us renegades that truly care constantly lift up Ren in prayer and support. I want Ren to suceed where i failed. He changed my life. Made me bolder. I am not afraid to talk about what my savior has done for me. God bless you My prayers are with you.

    There is a very clear mark in the timeline of my recent life:
    Before I found Ren and listen to him regularly.
    After I found Ren and grew and developed in previously unimaginable ways. About one year ago.
    From this I learned that I need to flow like water. Allow those things I cannot control to shape me, instead of the other way around. I learned that I cannot seek only joy, while ignoring suffering as one has no form without the other. If you have a blank white canvas with a black line, you have form and can eventually fine it even if the blank canvas is an inch from your face. If you have blank black canvas with a white line, it is the same.
    If you have just a white canvas, or just a black canvas then you will not know what to call either. Neither will have form, or evoke emotions or teach, especially when it is one inch from our face.
    Once I understood that part, I learned to pull back away from the multicolored canvas and see the whole thing for what it is: a single, undividable picture. And I accepted it. My suffering is painted with joy and my joy colored with suffering. I do not seek any specific one to the exclusion of the other.
    Well, that's on my good days, anyway. Sometimes I am just tired.

    As you're veterans may I tell you a quick funny.. ish. Story from when I was in the British Army and you could tell me some if you see this
    In the arctic for months and months. I'd only ever used our type of ski's. As wide as downhill ski's but with cross country bindings, where your heal is loose
    One day i went to the slopes, not realising how very different it was. I'm falling... all over the place when a woman came to help... she had a baby basket on the front of her ski's...with the baby in it 😂😂😂
    I felt so very soldier 😢😢😢

      Haha that’s impressive to have a baby in the basket in front! Thank you for the comment and the story!
      I have one funny story, so we were out on training for several weeks and on the last day, our commander comes over and is like, hey we have a bunch of these parachute flares left over, let’s shoot them off! They proceed to shoot off half a dozen flares, failing to realize the weather conditions. Dry and slightly windy. We watched as the flares dropped down to the ground in several locations, several hundred yards away. After a min, we saw the glow from the woods, we all run for water buckets and shovels to try and extinguish the fire. Almost burned the training location down! Needless to say, it was quite funny in hindsight!

It hit me as one of the tortured "prophets" that God chooses to carry his message, but, they all seem to have to suffer through trials for God to deem them worthy...... Now all that aside, first, thank you for your service. second, let me commend you on your early perceptions of what was unfolding, My first reaction was WTF. couldn't understand what was being said or why...Glad I stayed with it......Thirdly,,,follow your bliss, it shows that you honestly enjoy this platform, it's not an ego thing. Forthly, Jump in the ren rabbit hole ands be astonished at his creativity and his art, I recommend the tale of jenny and screech, Then love music 1,2,3,an4 and then money games 1,2,and3. Fifth I am OLD i turn 65 in July and I have done so much highs and lows BUT,,,,I have always tried and lived by "Do no intentional harm, Help where you can,,,,and ALWAYS have as much fun as you can pack into every day,,,,we are never promised a tomorrow". Sorry that got long winded, but,,,Sixth if ya got something to say,,,SAY IT. don't walk off and say to yourself,,, FuC8 I should have said to that assh8l6...... That's it,,,,,OOOH RAH.....God Bless

    For straight up fun and wonder watch Ren and the Big Push street performances
    You type in the Big Push.
    Start with the I shot the sherriff, road to zion, hip hop mix. Make sure you type in the word mix.
    He also has some very dark and disturbing yet brilliant songs. Tale of jenny and screech and violet's tale. It's a trilogy you watch like a play. Each tale is like an act in a play. You watch them in succession.
    As other's have mentioned; Ren doesn't care about copyright.

In October he released his 2nd album called Sick boi, this album reached number 1 on the Top album chart UK. The Money game trillogy is also amazing! Love to see your reaction to Ren and welcome to the Ren rabbithole. His first album Freckled Angels is a tribute to his best friend that he lost to suicide this album is more singing. His second album is a rap album. For this album he also has a tribute to his best friend Joe and he also talks about his own experience with suicide. Ren also was in a Band called the Big Push, they have done many street performances, a few good songs of theirs are: I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop (the version with the red suspenders), wade in the water.

    Greetings from another veteran from another country and a different decade! .... my first time hearing Hi Ren really put some inner darkness into perspective for me!! - have good listen to The Tales of Jenny and Screech (full version incl. Violets Tale) - this man is not just a musician but a theatrical performer. Thanks for your review!!

    Oh boy!! This is a big rabbit hole to fall into! You'll love him (I hope). I am obsessed with him. He was in a band too called "The Big Push". They're great! Ren is a master of many, many crafts. He does EVERYTHING himself, much like Tom MacDonald, writes, sings, raps, produces, mixes, multi-intrumentalist. He has a potty mouth, but I don't let it bother me as a Christian. He writes a lot about mental health and his health in general. He went YEARS with undiagnosed Lyme Disease. The doctors misdiagnosed him with depression, psychophrenia,and anxiety. He finally got a right diagnoses after 10 years of severe,severe illness daily. He's just incredible!

      @@VeteranCouple You're very welcome! Your next Ren song should be "Sick Boi". This song is some more about his battle with the Lyme's Disease misdiagnoses. He had been in Canada for a special approach to the disease. I'm not sure if he's still there or not, but he did live there for several months for the treatments.

Wr aren't SLL yhe best communicators, but wr live Ren. I ask for forgiveness and patience for myself and any others who come on too strong. Mostly a very loving and supportive group if weirdos.

    A couple of suggestions perhaps for Ren -
    Ren and Chinchilla - " Chalk Outlines " Live MV
    or
    on a lighter note
    Ren & The Big Push Busking - " I Shot The Sheriff " ( Bob Marley cover ) and / or " War Pigs " ( Black Sabbath cover ) are both spectacular , fun and give you some idea of his versatility and musical ability
    Enjoy !

    Welcome to the world of Ren....you don´t know yet but you will figure it out very quickly when going through his musical catalogue that you just opened a "Pandora´s box" which can´t be closed anymore.
    He is an unique + fully independent artists who can´t be put in a genre box because he uses all kinds of musical genres mixing&mashing them together (like here you got classical music elements mixed with rap + at the end singing in reggae style). And on top of that he is also a great - even poetic - lyricist. And that all is solely done by himself despite he is suffering from health problems due to lyme disease and all what comes with it.

    Individuals who go before us have to blaze the trail and clear the obstacles and brush for others to follow. When someone is but are a few steps to the side of the trail it feels like the path is still difficult until you can step back on to the clear path and recognize others are there to help you. We as a society have to slow down and recognize that our talents and abilities are sufficient to help others typically even when we are in dark places in our life but still can be a light to someone who is farther in their darkness

    Subbing for more Ren! Here’s some info 🖤
    🔥🔥🔥
    .Welcome to the Renaissance! Ren is my favourite artist of all time. I say artist because he is a multifaceted diamond! From singing (all styles) to rapping (bars/flows/schemes for days), Bardcore (story telling) beatbox, makes his own beats, scatting and a multi instrumentalist (guitars, bass, drums, melodica and more). On top of that he is the most beautiful human being inside and out who has been through and continues to go through absolute hell.
    Ren is 33 from Anglesey, Wales originally but spent most his life in Brighton, England. He has been very ill for years, at one point being completely bed ridden. He was misdiagnosed for years, being told he was bipolar, had M.E and more and was prescribed medications that made him worse and ended up in psychosis. It turns out Ren had Lyme disease which has caused havoc on his body. He’s been living in Calgary, Canada all year receiving intense medical treatment for his brain damage and mast cell activation disorder amongst other things that were caused by the Lyme disease.
    He started off making beats at 12 and selling CDs then moved on to busking. He was part of a band called Trick The Fox and was signed to Sony but they didn’t renew the contract after his health deteriorated. He then started The Big Push. They went on hiatus the end of last year after 5 years partly due to his move to Canada and also because the other members are also soloists and were moving around too.
    I have a list of songs to check out of all styles. Obviously this is no where near everything but gives you places to start. 🖤
