    I have been on the trail of reaction videos for this song. I have watched hundreds and without a doubt in my mind, your reaction will be one that I will remember out of them all. You caught things that I have missed and that I have not seen any reactor pick up on. You picked up on every emotion and every single line. You are a breath of fresh air. Now I want to go through your channel and watch every reaction on it. You are now in my top favorites and am honored to finally find your channel. I have a feeling that I will be writing books in your comment sections. He said at the very end "I must remember, no, we must remember, that we are all human" .. That line literally put this whole masterpiece together. Great react!!! Liked!!! Subscribed!!! Much love...

    Ren was initially misdiagnosed with depression, bipolar disorder, and chronic fatigue syndrome, which led him to experience psychosis. It would take seven years before a doctor in Belgium finally correctly diagnosed Ren with autoimmunity, Lyme disease, and resulting damage to the brain, organs, joints, and PTSD. Ren eventually underwent stem cell therapy in the United States, which improved his health, but it has not been a cure. Ren is currently in Canada for more treatments, including surgeries, and will have to be there for at least six months (Summer of 2023).....thanks, Hans Johansson

    His Shakespearian piece may be The Tale of Jenny & Screech full version. His flow went in The Hunger and Sick Boi. The Big Push I Shot the Sheriff Road to Zion Hip-hop is something great. Money Game & Money Game part 2 just a few with alot more.

    The one thing that helped bring Ren back to the living was 2 stem cell transplants that helped tebuild some if his immune system. He still suffers with fatigue,pain and allergic reactions ti almost all foods. He us currently in Canada getting almost daily treatments to heal brain damage and other problems.

    Hi Ren is just the first step in the journey.
    His work with Chinchilla is probably the most popular in terms of traditional song writing but definitely unique as well. Chalk outlines and How to Be Me (my favorite) are emotional punches to the soul.
    His band the Big Push have some great originals and covers that really show off his musical / guitar talents Bongo Bong and Englishman in NY are my favorite. Their live version of I” Shot The Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop is insane.
    All his rap is incredible. You can’t go wrong.

    from what I see on your channel, you will probably like one of his bests bits of rap... the hunger. for pure storytelling and guitar playing prowess, listen to the story of Jenny and Screech (full)... it's a 3-parter with a twist at the end... you might need tissues.

    This was an enjoyable reaction. I appreciate the research you did into Ren's background; most other reactors don't seem to bother. I wrote this introduction to Ren when I first discovered him earlier this year, as there wasn’t a Wikipedia entry for people to look him up prior to March 2023. I have posted this info to every “Hi Ren” reaction I have come across since, and I hope it will be of some use to the uninitiated. “Hi Ren” is the song that put Ren on everyone's radar since December; it went viral and has garnered over 8 million views since its debut, but he has been creating great music for more than ten years. Ren’s music videos are generally recorded live, often in a single take, although not necessarily the first take, and from various camera angles. His release, "Sick Boi," is almost another chapter to "Hi Ren." Many of Ren’s songs resonate with people because he addresses struggles that many others face every day.
    Ren plays multiple instruments (acoustic, electric, and bass guitar, piano, drums), has impressive vocals, is an excellent storyteller, and is quite the philosopher and poet. He is considered by many a modern bard; he calls his music “bardcore.” Ren’s earliest recordings on UA-cam are from his time in a band called “Trick The Fox,” consisting of Ren and his buddies Charlie and Tommy. Unfortunately, the band performed only briefly due to Ren’s onset of health issues. They are very talented. A fun clip to watch is “The Mash Up.”
    Ren’s trilogy "The Tale of Jenny/Screech/Violet" has been likened to a Shakespearean tragedy and is a prime example of his genius; it is a master’s class in storytelling and also showcases his guitar skills. The three acts are haunting, and the conclusion will catch you off guard. The trilogy needs to be watched in the order given, as this is the flow of the storyline and is best watched as a whole rather than piecemeal.
    Ren’s collaborations with Chinchilla (“Chalk Outlines,” “How to Be Me,” “Sexual Healing,” “One Dance/Drunk in Love”) are beautiful and showcase his singing voice. His live music videos are especially impressive. Ren's personal reflections are threaded through many of his songs; "Insomnia," "Depression," “Diazepam," “Penitence,” “Dear God,” “Heretic,” “Dominos,” his "Freckled Angels" album, just to name a few, all deserve a listen. His song "Money Game" (Part I & II) is another recommendation, although it is less of a personal song than it is an indictment of greed and the resulting injustices in this world.
    Ren’s Hip Hop/Rap style songs are all worth checking out if you enjoy this genre; they are pretty amazing. Check out “The Hunger,” “Genesis,” “What You Want,” “Losing it (FISHER rap retake),” “Right here, right now (Fatboy Slim one shot retake),” "Life is Funny," “Love Music (Parts 1, 2, and 3),” “Crucify Your Culture,” “Power,” his latest release, “Bittersweet symphony (The Verve retake),” just to name a few.
    As I recently discovered, Ren also recorded a cover of “Can't Help Falling In Love (Elvis Cover),” that is simply beautiful. Then there are his performances with Sam Tompkins (“Blind Eyed,” “Earned it /Mans World / Falling,” “Walking on the moon/No Diggity”). Also, his collaborations with Eden Nash (“Humble,” “Ocean”), Bibi (“Crutch,” “Ahiahiaoha”), Molly McKinna (“Penitence”), Orlean ("Jessica"), his former bandmate Romain Axisa (“French Song”), are all great.
    "The Big Push" (Ren Gill, Gorran Kendall, Romain Axisa, and Glen Chambers) busking sessions, concerts, and live recordings all are awesome and well worth checking out. All but the drummer sing lead vocals at times. Their covers of "I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop," "Wade in the Water/Nina Simone/Trouble so Hard," “War Pigs,” "My Generation," "An Englishman in New York," “Bongo Bong,” “These Boots Are Made For Walking,” the songs "Oh My Woman," “Swan Song,” “Sweet Little Lady," "It's Alright," "Watch Out," “Dignity,” and so many others are equally impressive. The band performed their last official busking session and gave their last concert in September of last year due to the fact that Ren was leaving for Canada to undergo medical treatment for his multiple health issues, including surgeries.
    In anticipation of his stay in Canada, Ren prepared some music ahead of time to be released over the next six months that he expects to be gone. He released “Sick Boi” and “Bittersweet Symphony (The Verve retake),” which is another masterful work. Ren has hinted that he might release his newest song on March 29, which is his birthday.

    It was very refreshing to hear your thoughts rather than being a cheerleader like many reactors. Please react to Ren's trilogy "The Tale of Jenny, Screech, and Violet". The three parts must be played consecutively in one reaction for full impact. You will be in awe of his storytelling ability as he moves seamlessly between first person and third person insights. Amazing guitar melodies. 🙂

    Nice reaction - you’re not alone in only just discovering Ren but the great thing is that means you have so much amazing stuff to catch up on. He has gone under the radar for a long time due to the fact he is independent- he was signed by Sony when he was 17 but dropped when he got ill. Misdiagnosed lymes disease meant he was ill for years and then ultimately it has led to some permanent damage (currently undergoing treatment in Canada). You should definitely spend time checking his stuff out as it is so diverse - he can rap, sing, play multi instruments, and ALL at a top top level. Chalk outlines live is beautiful singing, The Tale of Jenny and Screech (full trilogy in one watch is best) is insane story telling, guitar, singing and rap. The Hunger, Genesis, Losing it show his rapping well…. And he played in an amazing band called The Big Push (street performance of I Shot the Sherrif / Road to Zion / Hip Hop mash up is jaw dropping)

    The perennial issue of 'self doubt' that affects many many people. Anyone that is a human being can relate to talking to themselves, in moments or a life time of never being sure if what they do or plan will ever be successful, or will we just give up because of that doubt eating away inside us. Our subconscious will sometimes eat away at us slowing us down, and some to the point of severe depression.

    So yea some facts on ren. 1. the song was done live if you look to the top of the gown you will see the mic and he did this as a 1 take so in total there were 4 versions of this in 1 take form and this was the one he finished on. 2. Ren was not trained on guitar he was/is self taught and learned from youtube videos. 3. So the song is about illness and mental health ren was misdiagnosed as a kid for years with depression, bipolar and other illnesses so was fed wrong medications untill finally he got a proper diagnosed with lyme disease and is now still going through treatment. Finally while he was misdiagnosed he actually signed with sony studios but due to his illness and not being able to keep his comitments with sony they dropped him and is a independent artist

    Welcome to the world of Ren haha. He doesn't play one style of music. He's got his hands in multiple genres. He calls his style "Bardcore" after the 17th and 18th century Bard's from Ireland, England and Scotland. So Ren focuses on lyrics and storytelling. You'll see what a musical genius this man is. It's bananas how many different genres Ren touches. He has song like this one that are acoustic with some medieval style riffs thrown in every so often.
    But Ren can rap rap too! My favorites are "Power" which has one of the best hooks I've heard in a very long time. The there's the ode to The Beastie Boys with "What You Want" and it sounds exactly like the old school Beastie Boys. "Genesis is another amazing track he raps his ass off on also.
    Ren's band which you mentioned in the beginning of this video called "The Big Push" have live videos on their UA-cam page where they do amazing, and I mean amazing live covers on the street of Brighton of Bob Marley's "I Shot The Sheriff, Road to Zion and Hip Hop by The Dead Prez" and Ren's voice sounds so much like Bob Marley's is incredible. They do an incredible cover of Black Sabbath's "War Pigs." They cover The Rolling Stones "Paint It Black" with Ren playing bass and it too is incredible.

    One of the Gnostic scriptures entitled 'Pistis Sophia' (Faith in Wisdom) describes the "parts" of the human entity as body, soul, and the counterfeiting spirit (counter spirit) It is as follows: "And when the number of months of the birth of the babe is completed, the babe is born. Small in it is the compound of the power, and small in it is the soul; and small in it is the counterfeiting spirit. The destiny on the contrary is large, as it is not mingled into the body for their economy, but followeth the soul and the body and the counterfeiting spirit, until the time when the soul shall come forth out of the body, on account of the type of death by which it shall slay it [the body] according to the death appointed for it by the rulers of the great Fate." The spirit is not mentioned, might be considered part of the soul (depending of the words in the original). So I suppose the spirit and the 'counter-spirit' has an eternal present. At birth both are weak and depending on Fate they gain power, balance or imbalance. So Good and Evil is always present in our mortal existence. Just like in the song 'Hi Ren'.

    I think "Dark Ren" actually reveals himself as the devil himself, battling for Rens life. Then the "Good Ren" reveals himself as God fighting back, and beating down, the devil.

    Sasha-Lee, you are obviously very smart! Your reaction and analysis of Ren - Hi Ren was spot on. You realized Ren's vulnerability in making this video. Ren is doing what he loves to do, making music, it is shown in this music video and many others. Rob lists a few in his comments! Thank you for your reaction. Looking forward to the next one.

    Welcome to the Ren rabbit hole 😁👍 No song disappoints and his lyrics are awesome. Rap, rock and reggae influences he's a genius.
    This was four live takes with the fourth being this masterpiece. Samuel Perry-Falvey filmed it and close-ups added.
    Every song different and hits in so many different ways. Been watching reactors since January and his band The Big Push all great musicians, singers and writers.
    Great reaction!!

    Sharp reaction. Thanks. And, yes, the guy's a genius. As for the psychology of it, Ren is appealing to the need for us to integrate ourselves, no matter how hard it is to do so, we need to live with the doubting voice, which advises caution, but, also, to address its more extreme expression with a firm, 'thanks, but no thanks' response, because we choose the positive: Love, Mercy and Hope

    Lesson learned: when it comes to doctors - 3rd opinions matter. Music from the heart is clearly distinguishable from lyrics tossed together by a ghost writer for an artist to sing. It’s either your music or it isn’t and it’s obvious.

But I do plan on doing ASMR videos again, hopefully the sound quality should be better this time around. I do rap as well, if that's something you'd be interested in listening to.

    You referenced Shakespeare.
    .
    Ren categorised this style as
    "BARDCORE"! (Well spotted!?)
    .
    You missed one line in the "hope" section (just as you stopped to comment) so it's worth another listen, if you haven't already.
    .
    Also you cut off a few seconds early.
    Watch to the end and pay attention to the last look at the camera.
    I think they left that in on purpose.
    The demons are still there (imo)
