I work in Data. I can make the numbers mean anything I want to. Statistics, Metrics, and Most any analytic are just a polite way to lie with numbers.
He did it! Ren just posted he officially debuted at number 1 on the UK I Tunes charts!! US charts obviously haven't posted yet.
@@jasonkart1651as of 20 minutes ago the album is #1 in the US in the iTunes albums as well in the hip hop category . 👏👏👏❤️
Jesus 🧡think about it SELF SACRIFICE. I don't know but I see origins in the story. Genesis persay. The trigger is motivation or reasoning within the mind so as in the idea of and then.........yes the cycle begins again & again. It's the power of circles like cells like atoms it's MATTER OF FACT. Perhaps the ncycle is beginning to end. Self sacrifice.
Bye the way being a brokey as to what Don mentions in his watch but being without need of accumulation without need or love of having objects not living outside your self or that in which will not matter in the end is a peace within I've found tho attached but non attached persay. Boys we are going deep with this one Ren. The beauty of having thought and living can be enjoyed if you GIVE TIME TO GIVE THOUGHT
There is music, there is poetry, there is film, there is art, there is psychology, there is life ...... THERE IS REN ! 🙏
Well said
I bet this sounded less cringey in your head 😂
❤
The #RENaissance is real
No more cringe than your futile comment just talking shit
When BP said "Take that money bag of your head", I had a light bulb moment. The bag over the head isn't just to show a visual metaphor of people being faceless and a part of the money game, but also to show that our minds are more valuable than money. It's something that big corporations look to "steal", in the same way a robber would steal cash from a till.
and you can't even see what's happening till the bag comes off.... (think of the first 30 seconds) edit: it's a metaphor, guys...
@@ryanzeigler9763not sure it looks pretty thin so you might see something
@@tz5116 Would be pretty hard to film this if he couldn't see 😅
@@0x2A_ even (too?) risky to try in a one take video :D so yea I'm sure they can
@@tz5116 This wasn't one take.
We did it Renegades. Sick Boi is #1 in the iTunes hip hop chart and #6 overall. That’s really fucking impressive for an independent artist. We been watching the ripple and waiting for the waves. We are about to get a tidal wave. Also, this Money Game video really needs to win an Oscar. It’s beautiful art that deserves the recognition.
Number 1 in New Zealand and some other countries.
Just gotta wait to see where the album stands in a week.
@@FallenEagleFTW true. But all of our pre-orders alone did that. He’s completing against Drake and artists with huge money backing them. It’s just amazing.
He also got number 1 in the UK official charts beating out Rick lastly
It's not entirely a "one take", Ren said it has one cut in it, but it had to. He explained why on his Twitch live stream after the song dropped. Also, the guy who walked up to the piano is a classically trained pianist Ren knows and he took over where Ren left off. Ren also wrote all the music, including the orchestral part.
I read somewhere (can't recall where) that Ren taught himself how to play Cello so doesn't surprise me tha he wrote the piece for strings.
@@torlceanyeah I believe he’s self taught on everything.
Rain, rain, rain, rain, a storm it comes our way. The humming melody perfectly played by the cello. He is so incredibly creative and surrounds himself with amazing creative people. Love this.
He has wonderful friends, which makes you know Ren is a great guy because if he wasnt his friends would not do this. So Ren we all know your GOLD
Ren is bogarting ALL the talent. Rap talent, singing talent, musician, lyricist, story teller, video producer, this guy is Special. Nobody like him.
Power tends to corrupt, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Ren gets it.
Heard this line in Akala song. Absolute power corrupts absolutely
But absolute powerlessness does the same.
I was about to comment the same. Akala FITB 2???
Absolute power doesn't always corrupt, so even though that's a cute saying that people like to repeat, it's not an entirely factual one.
@Corvid76 it either corrupts the one in power or the one that is powerless. But it absolutely corrupts absolutely.
@@steanschmidt6031
Yeah, Akala talks about this type of thing a lot - he’s one of my top 5!
I think Ren (like me) is frustrated that smart people use their minds for bad means. It's such a shame.
Yes, that's Ren playing piano at the beginning! He also composed the music for piano and strings! :)
It’s amazing how artfully he weaves the other MG musical themes into the video.
Grammy Worthy.....its so good.
Maybe Grieg takes some credit. Piano Concerto in A minor, Op 16
Why would you want to lighten up this piece of art. Ren has a totally serious message for us all here. It is a culmination of money games 1, 2 & 3. Best art and message for decades.
Seeing the ballet in this is absolutely hitting the nail on the head,
The trust between Ren and Sam is just like 2 dancers.
Bro he has officially reached Immortal Technique story telling, dear lord
Reached? He exceeded both Tech and Em and we are but his humble brethren
Omg!! Thank you!!! I use Immortal Technique's Dance With the Devil to explain how far their jaws will drop at the end of the full Tales video 😂 There's no clearer way for me to explain it to my friends so they'll get what I'm saying lol Excellent!
Not to mention he’s doing all this while sick and in harsh lyme treatment 🦠💚🦠💚from a fellow lyme patient but I feel like without Faith there is no hope for us.
I'm a new lymie. Dx'd (by the rash) a few weeks ago. It's a very confusing disease!
The fact that Andrew Lloyd-Webber is rooting for Ren makes me think we're gonna see some incredible things in the coming years.
Rens gonna need a BIG net , to catch all the awards their gonna throw at him ,and Sam of course and the rest of the team , this is a masterpiece , the lighting is exquisite .
This is the magic of Ren. The conversations that stopped happening because it was taboo. So basically we stopped talking about the things that most needed to be discussed.
I agree wholeheartedly with this comment ❤
Ask why they do not want you to talk about it? Trust your instinct, your gut feeling
I think that one of the important things Ren points to in this amazing piece, is that much of Jimmy's trajectory came from trying to gain his father's approval, and the conditioning he (and all of us) was given, that fed into his value system.
There are cycles in life, but so many of them are cycles of trauma - be it intergenerational, cultural, familial - cycles of abuse that are meant to be broken. That's what Money Game always seems to be asking me - how can we begin cycles of healing instead of harm? We have normalized so much of what goes on in the world today, as if it is our nature. And it's not. But it means remembering and connecting to the truth that we aren't separate...there are no sides. We are all part of the problems, but that also means we all have the potential to be part of the solutions to making our world a better place. Sorry for the ramble.
Agree. Also his Dad encouraged the idea that it’s when you stop the chase you’re no longer a “man”. The son is telling his dad he’s got more and more money and the dad saying it will never be enough. When Ren says “
Yes! Exactly this! Thank you for stating this more eloquently than I ever could have.✌❤
Agreed 💗
I had the same thought about Knox Hill, but he said in his reaction he wasn't there for the final shoot. He stood in during rehearsals, holding the silver tray. This is the most incredible thing I've ever watched
I stand with peace, but that doeasn't sell too well does it. Peace Darf
The piano player is the piano player. It's a live recording.
I can’t wait to watch The Wolf Johnson’s documentary about the making of Money Game 3!
"Turns a saint into a sinner, a child into a killer, his finger on the trigger of a money game." Money Game 1
I had to catch my breath after watching this one. I don't think there are words yet invented to describe Rens talent and passion to foster a better world. ❤😊❤
"finger on the trigger of a money game" is a lyric from MG1 so I assume that is part of why it is the last line.
Money does equal power. That's why people want excessive amounts of money. Power.
It would be interesting for you to react to the end of the money game briefcase stream. There is a video put together with an amazing message.
Normally after he says that line would come the lyrics oh rain, rain, rain and yes visually we got rain. Such a clever addition of it was meant that way 👌
Yeah that line ties it back to part 1 really nicely.
And BP and Don reacting to the treasure hunt livestream would be awesome!
Maybe I am crazy but the ending with pulling the trigger symbolizes that with the money game we are all killing ourselves.
Simply. Money can't buy happiness or save your soul.
I love the behind the scenes story of this song. Yamaha provided the piano for free, and it was the most expensive piano that Ren had ever played. So in a lot of the down time Ren and Charlie (the pianist who played the piano for the song) would just play the piano. I can relate to that. I will never forget the time i went to a piano showroom and played a piano that was worth £400K! I wasn't aware of the cost at the time. I just played the piano for about half an hour and told the guy "Wow, i love this piano! Can i buy it? How much is it? When he told me it was *four hundred thousand pounds* I didn't dare touch it again!
Ren dropped track #1 of Sick Boi on his live stream earlier. It's 🔥
It starts with Ren singing in Welsh.
My take: the money game creates weapons. It also creates physical and mental pain that we experience in life (whether self inflicted or put on us by others), so it’s a weapon in itself. Double entendre.
The trigger sound at the end obviously has a meaning within the story, but pulling the trigger on a money game could be destroying its power over you by changing your perspective. Rather than physically pulling the trigger against your head, it could be flipping a switch in your brain and saying ‘hey, I’m not gonna let this run my life anymore’. Money is something we need in today’s society, but by minimising greed and thirst for power, we get to enjoy the little things like running down the street as a kid and spending time with loved ones. That’s winning the game.
the depth of Ren expression, the cross references, the beauty of the music, the intensity of the feelings, the talent of the videographer, Much Love to all involved including you reactors.
Ren said it’s not a one take. Everything up to the wheelchair is one shot, then from the wheelchair onwards is second shot which is still phenomenal!! Absolute masterpiece again!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts guys.
Peace
Because they couldn't risk doing the water shot more than once.
I couldn't see the cut at all! Great great work
@@thehangingparsiple5692 The cut happens as it pans around the back of the wheelchair I think.
I knew there was a cut when the camera reaches the back of the wheelchair because everything went black. It's a cut trick I often do myself when editing videos.
@@thehangingparsiple5692 When the camera reaches the back of the wheelchair everything goes black. That is where the cut is made. When doing this kind of invisible cuts you're looking for one of two things: A very shadow part of the footage or a part with a straight line (a tree, a building corner or a door like they did in Murderer Video: there is a cut at the moment when Ren is leaving the building and going outside, they used the dorway to make the cut). But in this case they used both: The straight line of the side of the wheelchair and the dark shadow of the wheelchair. The fact that they combined these two techniques make it easier to hide the cut. But didn't work as well at the mirror part when Ren removes the bag from his head.
I don’t think Ren chooses a specific Prime Minister/President/World leader but suggests they’re all compromised by a well developed and explained ‘money game’.
I did think however that his reference and choice of 45 being the end point may well refer or reflect on the prime example of the money game (president 45). Just how I saw it.
Big up to Don for his reflections on Iran Contra etc.
PS I have the album arriving tomorrow on Vinyl!!!
The pressure from the father would fit that, too. From his dad to him, then from him to his sons.
The man on the piano is a pianist called Charlie, and the man cutting up coke is the owner of the warehouse they're shooting in - he's also one of the people who run the Secret Garden Party.
Great reaction, guys - love your chats cz they're always interesting. (Made to bathe in her lover's blood???) ❤🎉
Would have loved a "rain rain rain a storm it comes my way" verse at the end. No spoiler. Congrats on your success. Respect the grind.
You have visual rain.................
the violins are playing the main line , so clean
The ending comes full circle on those lyrics, i think it's perfect.
That would have been cool! Maybe because the storm that was coming is now here?
When he sat back in the wheel chair I immediately saw a flash of him in HiRen!! Weird themes and crossovers but n all his work!!
the gun didn't go off though, it just left him with nothing, the money game was the gun that didn't work in the end. it just clicked and left him in horror.
It made me think of Russian Roulette. He 'won', but in this case, did he really?
Too many people don't understand that money is a tool, never a goal
Give this man and Oscar, an Academy Award and a freaking Mark Twain Award. I mean just WOW!!
There's a problem.
Who controls the awards system?
Do they want this in the open?
You probably have made the connection at this point, but the hook in Money Game 1 & 2 is "Rain, rain, rain, rain. A Storm it comes my way" By the time Jimmy is 45, guess what? It's raining.
Absolute genius, Peaky Blinders meets Shakespeare ❤
Ren is the new genre he gets humans really conversing...
This reaction is top notch...
He just did a livestream on twitch and he said it was live and a 1 take with a single cut to get the water drop shot correct because they only had one shot at it, about 19 takes for the first part and 12 takes for the second part.
Yep. He definitely said that. Really good live stream
Ren is pure GENIUS in his prime ❣️ There are NO words for this ! ❤❤❤
Absolutely. I'm just grateful to be able to go along for the ride.
Don’t ever feel sorry for having your rants lads!! I love it when you 2 especially get together because the talks you have are truly meaningful and provokes thought (in me anyway) another awesome reaction can’t wait to see the interview Saturday.. and anyone reading this that hasn’t subscribed or hit the like, help our brothers out they bring out class content ALWAYS!! Peace lads, and remember “we can all do better!!”
43:17 wow Don! Dropping some serious truth. And I think @renmakesmusic would agree fundamentally. I mean if it wasnt for the youtube monetization of hi ren and his overall popularity, he would not be able to bring the value he is currently bringing… positive upward cycles. In fact Money in a good sense can actually be a huge part of utopia
Great reaction I love it when you boyz get going😂😂 another theatrical masterpiece! This shoul get some kind of award! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥✌🏻🫶🏻
It is a one take in 2 one take shots. The person on the piano is another friend that is actually playing and has an earpiece to hear Ren so he knows cues in the music. If you watch Knox's interview with Sam you will get behind the scenes shots that shows the camera man and the rig he is wearing which is connected to a vest, that has the camera on it to get those spinning shots and other smooth shots. All in a huge warehouse.❤
Can’t blame you for getting excited and going early 🫡!🇬🇧!
Hi.
Don't normally sign in but have to say thanks for being you and doing what you do.
Your reactions are thought provoking and your openness is a treat to watch.
Like Ren, you manage to keep it real, but still entertain & inform.
I came here first because of Ren. I stay here [mostly lurking silently] because of what you do and how you do it.
Don't change a thing [except perhaps that beat skip in the Boys Are Back In Town intro 😀]
I've learned an awful lot about Rap & Hip Hop since Hi Ren dropped last December and also learned a lot about human beings. Music has been with me since I was five years old and is more important to me than food [even Mushy Pease]. It never gets boring as there's always someone else to discover.
Ren's path and the people that have intersected with it and the amazing bonds it has created between people from all over the world but will probably never meet give me hope for the human race.
One day, maybe just maybe, we'll stop pointing fingers, creating bogeymen and dropping bombs and actually start to be what we should and could be if we all put our minds to being positive instead of negative. United we stand.
Big thanks to everybody involved in both the reactions and the reacted to.
One day we'll all be telling our Grandkids 'This was the first time I heard Hi Ren' ...
@user-iy4cf1yf5r
Ello! How ya doing?
Had reply to part of your comment:-
"One day, maybe just maybe, we'll stop pointing fingers"
Because it reminded me of one of several wise words of advice, our beautiful mum taught us...
"When somebody is pointing the finger at others 👉
They are always pointing THREE at them selves☝️👈"
So thankfully, we was taught at an early age, critical thinking skills, respect, aswell as patience. That trio in life never seems to fail.
Nice to meet you. Have a great week. 👍
This is what I have stated on the official music video comment section:
I am reflecting simply of those already stated: a masterpiece of a man reborn to a status and level only obtained by those clearly enticed and embraced by the divine. He will show the world that the music has called, calling, caller to all. Forever a man who speaks to his soul. Forever a man who cannot take without love. We will be forever in his debt and never again shall we question that the game is most impressed.
Rain rain rain rain...😔👌🏼
Ren did another MASTERPIECE and
his garden will grow hysterical historical 🥹🙏🏼
Another great reaction to an astounding video....Peace and love from Australia.
The last "finger on the trigger of a money game."
Winning the money game literally killed 'Jimmy.'
Not only is the money game parasitic towards humanity, it also is corresive to your own happiness.
So the flip on (off-ing) self with the gun/trigger is with how his own actions led to his demise.
The gun never goes off though it just clicks , maybe there's an enlightenment and Jimmy turns his life around for the better and gets a second chance at it. ????
@@ty0484 Great point. I would revise my line to say that winning the money game is losing.
Ren makes this rock bottom moment poetically balance on the edge of a cliff. People do recover from rock bottom.
@@ty0484 or it is just another blow to a very tragic character....cannot even kill himself. It made me cry.
You boyz happen to watch the treasure hunt monologue. Wow!
Knox Hill already stated it's Charlie on the Piano and it is being played. And he showed behind the scenes video of the camera rig that can spin. Yes... This is a full "One-Take" video.
Glad you were able to witness this together.. it’s raw and real we couldn’t have asked for more!🎶❤️🩹🎶
The video and concept is crazy, but i have to say the Money Game promotional game probably took even more planning and boundary pushing. It was nuts. (Not taking anything away from this masterpiece, but i had never seen anything like it)
The actual quote is "the love of money is the root of all evil" which is accurate. Money itself is neither evil nor good but people make sacrifices for what they love and what people who love money sacrifice is genuinely evil. Especially if their only goal is get more money at any cost and never being satisfied no matter how much they have. That's why so many of the richest people in the world have the largest pile of skeletons in there closet and some of those skeleton are not at all metaphorical. Take the people who get rich off the cobalt trade, what are they sacrificing? The lives of children who die a horrible death. Children who are enslaved to mine cobalt in conditions worse than just about any human history. Children they have never met, never seen and know nothing about except that their wealth is dependent on the death of those children and yet they make that sacrifice, many of them even have kids of their own, even though they have so much money they could change it but they don't. Every electronic device that has anything to do with cobalt was only possible because of the death of children. That's what the love of money is, exploitation and death.
“I always chase, numbers, statistics or stats - you guys get it, right” - “I always chase numbers, statistics or stats… it’s horrible”. That’s his point.
We all have our finger on the trigger of the money game. We are born into it. I think Rens point, and I agree, we have choice and freewill to create something other. However, we will have to awaken a value of care and love for self and other - that surpasses “chasing numbers, statistics or stats”.
Thanks for taking time off for this Don, I know you have other obligations and this is a special occasion, but it's not the same if it's not The Boyz!
23:04 No, not a "one take" (as far as filming goes), but two very extended and incredible choreographed sections. Note the block as we pass behind the back of the wheelchair. Classic oldschool technique from the innovators, Orson Wells, and Alfred Hitchcock: See Hitchcock's Rope (1948) for a whole film done in ten cuts.
Can a music video be eligible for an Oscar? Because I feel like this deserves an Oscar for Best Short Film
Just watched it. Im here for the reaction premiere
"Oh rain rain rain
With his finger on the trigger of a money game."
Full circle.
It's out! It's genius! It's compelling and resonates so much 'cause it's true! The picture perfect portrait of the world we live in! Masterpiece, yet again!
Ren ♥️👌
Hey Black Pegasus , finally pulled my finger out and checked out your original music . Very nice work my man . Been listening to the Flobama album and really like it . Will check out the other albums on the weekend . Thanks man .
We are the people in the mask .. Ren represents the rich. in all money games 1 2 3 .
Funny how you mention “just being born in to who I am” as I just wrote this in my comment on the MG3 video “After a couple listens something struck me, the first part you sing reminds me of Violets Tale, and we know how that turned out. The removal of the head sack could almost represent birth, are our lives already mapped out by what we are born in to and what we are taught in the world we grow up in?” Were Jimmy and Screech so different?
"Then he presses on the trigger of a money game". He presses a Gun. Guns are part of the money game. Clever......
A red tie is a power tie. That's what it represents in business and law.
I had no idea your boy was so learned. His political history is spot-on.
It's brilliant to hear you both dig into it & truly discuss what you think the meaning of the video is as well as the genius of Ren & Samuel in making it. The genius of the lyrics, the film works , fact that it is done in 1 take. How on earth Ren not only managed to creste such lyrics but then manages to keep them in mind to act them out not just as would happen in a film but musically as all.
REN REALLY IS A GENIUS IN HIS OWN TIME. I HOPE HIS HEALTH CONTINUES TO IMPROVE SO THAT HE CAN SHOW US HOW MUCH MORE HE IS CAPABLE OF.
I think that Ren has recognized the reaction video community and knows that it will boost within, which is an introspective acknowledgement of his own impact on this UA-cam money game...
Performance piece, extraordinaire! not really a song but a concept. Brilliant stand alone artist.
The Dad encouraged the idea that it’s when you stop the chase you’re no longer a “man”. The son always telling his dad he’s got more and more money and the dad reply is it will never be enough. When Ren says “stop the entertainment” he is saying that all of us are in the money game whether we like it or not. We need money just to live, feed ourselves, keep our children fed. And in these times with social media so prevalent it’s so much easier to see what others have and for us to covet what others have that we want.
So we’re all in the money game.
Amazing reaction to this masterpiece! Ren's performance and song-writing skills mixed with Sam's cinematography = Perfection ❤
Late to the party because of life. It's great art and a great message It's funny when I think of the money game I always think of the story of the businessman and the fisherman. If wealth comes at the detriment to the planet, to health, to love for the fellow man then it is worthless. ❤
When the water comes down....."Rain, Rain, Rain, Rain. A storm it comes our way".
Our leaders should wear patches to represent the corporations that bought them, kinda like NASCAR.
This is funny but also sad
Don looking quite fly today.
You go you cutie patooti!
Ren played the piano and his story and acting is a masterpiece! all his work is the best Ren is a genius Ren absolutely deserves an Oscar more then anyone else
Look at what he’s saying at 40 he goes back to the beginning and the simple things in life that seemed insignificant are actually the most important things, his father programmed him to think money was the most important thing in life and by time he figured it out it was too late, brilliant
I love Ren, this is a great work of art. He is right pointing out the hypocrisy in the world and the flaws of a capitalist system. Great art is thought provoking and encourages dialogue. Although it is flawed, there is a certain amount of choice in that system, you can create in that system and vote etc. I don't know what Ren's idea of utopia is, the utopian idea cannot and has never worked as we are all flawed human beings. Once you bring in a system like that, you have no creativity, no free will, no ability to vote it out and no inspiration or ability to think and create. Can we all make personal choices about how we behave and how we treat each other, absolutely. Can we teach our children good values, yes.Just don't get fooled by the idea of utopia, anyone who has been to the Killing fields in Cambodia knows how that turns out.
I don't disagree for the most part. I would only like to point out it's not the capitalist system that's at fault maybe. It's the Fractional Reserve banking practices that have slowly strangled the vast majority, generation after generation. While the few at the top benefit from the monster they themselves created. Capitalism can not be free and fair when it's being rigged via a monetary system designed to enslave us using perpetual debt and perpetual inflation, both built into it. Devaluing the few dollars we have, devaluing our time and labor one deposit at a time. Without the monopoly over our money, they would lose their foot hold on us imo. Just some thoughts..
MUCH ❤
I think you need to watch the end of Rens competition and that money game. I think you’ll be pinching yourself with that excited “ I just said that!!!”
In a personal note. I kinda agree with the cycle thought, every natural element runs in a cycle.
Once again, great reaction and conversation.
Pressing on the trigger of a money game, he's bringing the end of money game 3 full circle back to money game 1. This also refers to the gun being part of the arms trade, one which the central character made money from.
This is special. Should be showered with awards.
You did exactly what he was looking for put yourself/others into the story. Faceless people makes it easier to see others in those spots. Oh and Knox has a lot of info on the video shot I'd watch his reaction. He shows the camera that was used it's crazy!
Dude Black P!! You *Must* take the time to watch the UK's UP series. It's fascinating how we definitely don't change much as we mature.
Reagan was Iran/Contra
Great review as always, BP & Don!!! All I could think about when the rain starting pouring on him was "please don't mess up, please don't mess up" lolol... wonder how that scene played into the one take. He had a ton of dry backup outfits? They had to stop and wait for his clothes to finish in a dryer? lol... so many questions!!
hahahahha right!!!
Second time watching this, two of my fav boiz!!
Caught a bit of the live DJ Supernatural, but watched again this am. I LOVE! the idea of you two interviewing the RAP roots, as they were formed in the US.
I grew up listening to the spoken lyricists like Slick Rick, Pac, Dre & Cube. Old school/OG worship is ALWAYS a YAY! for me. I'm just saying!
❤&✌️ be with you Mates!
Freedom is from within our minds first before physical! Ren a human god! 😊
Oh I was waiting for your reaction to day watch it on my own first and then waited for your reaction sending loads of love guys xxx
I believe he said in his twitch stream today that what we see here is two takes, both live of course. The first one took 17-18 tries to get one they liked, then they paused to get the water stuff set up and ready to go and did another several takes from that point to get one they liked.
This whole conversation, especially the part on how president and companies are gangsta is maybe one of the thing I love the most with Ren. He's doing politics, and he's doing it brillantly!! Politics is NOT just the "things for the clever elits" and all the electoral game, politics is just talking about our society, and learning and debating, and discussing about what is going on, and what do we want for our future, and he's creating space for those discussion: it's not pretentious, sanctimonious or guilt-inducing, it's just, "hey, remember of those fact? Here an interesting story that I'll tell you." and he let us things about it!!
I'm someone who's real interested in politics but like lots of person, I can't follow all the names, and the news and the scandals, and I'm so happy to see conversation "sparkling" thanks to his art !! Politics's for everyone
Came here from the knox hill react. From rens page originally. Knox was there for a lot. Until the rain scene. And before. The camera rig is insane. You can see on the knox hills reaction
In Knox review he has behind the scenes footage showing the camera rig and. A breakdown on some of the people
Cool music fact. ELO's Fire on High was a descriptive musical piece exposing the battle between the Archangel Michael and "The Dragon" or Satan as we know him. Would be a great review. No words just an intense musically descriptive masterpiece. REN mentions "The Dragon" in this... 😊
The first time he sings, it's the first few notes of Violet's Tale, but it changes. Someone else pointed out that Screech & Jimmy's lives started the same (an innocent baby being born, called James) but quickly turned out differently due to their home environment. I always thought the singing was Violet's ghost, but now I think it could be the baby's spirit wondering what their being born into.
Oh that's an interesting take. Kind of the sound made by the new soul as it enters this life. And the Ren tells us the tale of this person? I heard the link to Violets tale but hadn't thought it through like you have.
@conradschumacher4013 I always wondered why he looks around, wide-eyed when he's singing that in Violet's Tale and I thought he might be Violet's ghost looking around, but I think it's more innocent than that, so I'm sticking with my new theory (until something better comes along 😄)
I love your conversations. That's one of the beautiful things about Ren is all of his music is artistic and has a message behind it and it brings about many conversations and even his just cool and fun songs create some kind of conversation. I love Ren so much. And I love you two. Y'all are awesome!
16:58 so true....love our stuff...beeing a metal head you have shown me some graet music - keep up the good work!
Def GAME OVER. Man, those stings gave me chills every time! Incredible. ❤
THEY DID USE THE HANDHELD CAMERA ON A LIKE SELFIE STICK TYPE THING, KNOX HILL KIND OF BROKE IT DOWN ON HOW IT WAS DONE, AMAZING WORK, REN IS AN AMAZING ARTIST. LOVE HIS WORK.
