This is an unemotional, yet compassionate, message of support for another creative artist, and it's informative to those outside the music industry. A really amazing video you didn't have to make. Well done.
Hi Justin, it was you and your channel which introduced me to Hi Ren! For that I am very grateful! I started watching your channel after I lost my youngest brother last October when he decided to end it. He was 20 years my junior but we were close and as you can imagine it crushed me. When he was a teen he introduced me to you and The Darkness, your style and flair resonated with him and he carried that look of a rockstar might have, throughout his adult years. So after coming across your channel, I somehow felt closer to my brother. My brother always thought you and The Darkness were legends and I have to admit I have started to listen to your music much more lately. I love your channel and your reactions to Ren, and so thank you for introducing me to his work. The first was Hi Ren and I paused your video, found Rens channel and watched it in its entirety, he reduced me to tears with his raw and conflicting emotions as well as his performance and delivery. I then went back to your channel and finished watching your reaction, and I found myself in complete agreement with you. I am so chuffed you and the band are producing music again..........agaaaaaaain! Long may it continue ol' bean!!! Great channel btw!
Love you and your support of Ren, Justin. You introduced me to him when you reacted to "Hi Ren" back in January 2023, for which I am eternally grateful. And I love your kind and erudite way of expressing yourself, here and in your other videos.
I believe you introduced me to Ren…. Amazing artist… through him… I found Cinchilla… again, amazing artist - together they are magnificent… you also introduced me to King Gizz. I’ll be seeing them at RedRocks on Sunday and Monday…. Thank you for your channel… “Nice One!”
I LOVE this. I LOVE that you have included a clip of Ren saying he’s released a new song about it all. Brilliant. Call. Artists supporting artists. Class.
@@halloola3636 I agree. I’m in the same boat. It took a car accident and becoming a paraplegic for me to figure it out. A blessing in disguise as messed up as that may seem. Plus I no longer have the headaches I got from woman. They want nothing to with me now anymore and I’m ok with that.
I have seen alot of artist make these types of videos, but i hve been following Rens musics/life updates for the past few years and like millions of other people have come to understand the person he is. Seeing him breaking down when he was explaining the impact Sick Boi had on him and many many other people (myself included) was a genuinely heartbreaking experience and i cant even imagine the pain and trauma that it has caused ren.
Thanks for this Justin. You were the guy who introduced me to Ren (eternally grateful for that!), you continue to support real artists and I fully respect you for it.
Thank you Justin for explaining the industry. You are always entertaining and informative. Ren will always come out on top and we all wish him continued success. Live on and prosper 🖖
I'm just a music fan, and I enjoy your honesty and information you provide in your videos. Best of luck in all you do and thank you for the joy you bring me and everyone else with your channel. Your empathy and emotional intelligence is appreciated in this crazy world we live in
Ren is almost the exact opposite of what I would normally listen to, but somehow he's incredible all the same. Can't remember if I discovered him here or via The Charismatic Voice (I'm off there next), but I'm glad I did. And then I'll be (mostly) back in the '70s & '80s like usual.
Have you ever heard his busking? He does a lot of covers, Bob Marley, the police, soul Motown and when it's full band outdoor gig the musicianship is top class! I haven't had the chance to spend a lot of time catching up but in interviews Ren has said that this is his 1st full rap heavy album and he has a gorgeous voice so i'm looking forward to discovering that Ren too! (Then I'll go back to my 70s 80s 90s! Lol!
I got bit by a tick when I was 11 years old. Long before Lyme disease was even a word. Long before Epstein-Barr was labeled a medical condition or fibromyalgia was a term. I had no idea how to explain any of this to people or the long lasting side effects I've dealt with for the last half century and out of the blue this British dude with the funny hair cut shows up on my UA-cam and I hear Sick Boi and it not only blows me away with his talent but he understands what I've been through and articulates what I've failed to say.
Lyme disease has been a word since 1975 and the earliest detailed writings about diseases contracted from ticks have been around since the 18th century….
@@mexmentatythen why did Ren get medically gaslit by the entire NHS for 8 years straight? Just because “it’s been a word since 1975” doesn’t mean every doctor knows about it and treats it properly
Justin, you introduced me to ren and its no exaggeration to say that his music and story have motivated me to make huge changes to my life. So yeah, thanks Justin, it's been an amazing ride.
I've already watched Kujo Beat Down a few times, and... it's in the queue to watch again. The numbers are growing! Over half a million views already, and I expect it'll be well beyond that before too very long. :) Thanks for the analysis of the situation, and I look forward to your analysis of the song. Good luck on your recording sessions!
Nearly a million views now- Kujo was very silly to turn down working with Ren it would have set him up with a fantastic track plus the support & respect of not only Rens fans but the wider industry too more fool Kujo looking forward to part 2
@@SickBoiFanatic I hope there won't be reason for a part 2 to be released, but looking forward to Sick Boi version 2! And yeah, it got to over a million by yesterday, if not before, so... yeah... what was that quote (the first DM from the girlfriend) about "a little oopsie" or something? ;)
I've realised over the last few months just how much respect I have for you thru these videos. You have evolved away from The Darkness with this series, and more power to you.
*awesome* - THANK YOU Justin, grateful you are aware of this situation (as I assumed you would be) - also interested in your reaction to Ren's 'Kujo Beat Down' I was hoping for your input into this situation, given your knowledge, experience & expertise of the music industry, from multiple points of view (performer, obviously, writer, of course - ALL the other creative things you've done behind the scenes, & their 'real world' (legal & financial) consequences...). as usual you did not disappoint so THANK YOU Justin, appreciate your words of wisdom & insight, esp given your vast experience & grateful you are aware of this complicated situation (as I assumed you would be) - also interested in your reaction to Ren's 'Kujo Beat Down' - please & thank you p.s. hope the recording is going well
Wonderful sensitive and succinct consideration of the situation and great to have an music insider's explanation and take on it. Agree with you wholeheartedly
Gareth got a raw deal here. Gave up his car willingly only to have his specific instructions brazenly flaunted before you announced to the world, baselessly i might add, that the car was also his residence! Shocking. Justice for Gareth. #JusticeForGareth
This was such an informative video. Not seen your channel before Mr Hawkins. Do remember your music and loved it back in the day. But I had no idea what a good man you are. It came through on this video mate.
I really feel for Ren and for the Bulgarian choir. Kujo’s mob has done a great disservice to both. Wouldn’t it be great if Ren and the choir could collaborate on a new arrangement and really stick it up the middle men?!
REN is the G.O.A.T. hi ren led to my self realization when i reached the end of my rope with burnout... led me to get help, got my self diagnosis of adhd and comorbidities, after a year long process, confirmed by dr's last week and at 46 just started adhd meds (and my god what a difference). i was literally watching and listening to Hi Ren for the first time last september and something inside snapped, i mean physically i could feel it. i always heard people say how a song/artist saved them and always thought it kinda melodramatic, but i know now what other's have meant.... and sick boi fckn resonated too... fck kujobeats and his greed.
Justin! It's a pleasure to watch you and listen to your clear and precise info ! You succeed in keeping a calm lookout on this troublesome situation while giving a COMPASSIONATE statement in favour of Ren being one of THE Artists of our times❣And justly so THIS GUY IS BRILLIANT. I hope and thousands of other fans hope that things can be sorted out for Ren! He plainly IS NOT AT FAULT AT ALL as your video made clear again . Thank you for it.🙏🌟 Looking forward to what else you have to say!!! Good Night 😅 It's 2:45 a.m. in Germany 👌👊🌝🖐
I only knew about ren from your previous posts and knew about this last week, just watched the new vid from ren then saw this, cant wait for your next ren vid thank you justin!
Very interesting explanation of how you see this dispute. Having watched Rens' video on the whole thing it was great to follow up with you. Always enjoy your content.
Thank you for sharing your opinion. Your video of Hi Ren is how I discovered Ren in the first place. PS my ears are still ringing from when I saw you play at the House of Blues in Dallas over a decade ago ❤
Glad to hear how the legalities of all this played into Rens song. He's a young man doing great things with his music and i was extremely disappointed to hear what happened.
Brilliant. I love your take on this. I’ve been a fan of yours for years, and when I found out you liked Ren……well, even more admiration from me. Thank you Justin. 🤘😀
Awesome explanation on revenue streams and how it actually works for labels/publishing, artists, and writers. So many have no idea how royalties work and you broke it down to an understandable idea for all. It's a tricky, sticky, potentially complicated system depending on how much the writer/artist pays attention to the fine print before tapping 'ok'. The industry is not quite as vicious as it was from the 1950's to the turn of the century when the artist/writer had no control or means of distribution. Now it's far more to the creators advantage but still very critical to pay close attention to the agreement read those words carefully before pressing/tapping/clicking/"okay-ing" (signing). I always keep in mind that those agreements were constructed by lawyers! Enough said! Great video Justin.
I don't think Ren taking down the song has something to do with the Bulgarian choir .. at least not directly. My understanding is that Ren already paid 15% to the choir (as they requested) because Kujobeats refused to absorb that. In any case the Bulgarian choir did not strike the song, Kujobeats did because he wants to engage Ren in a legal battle. And Ren simply removed the song to avoid that.
@clarepickthall8508 Ren bought a sampler from kujobeats, then cos ren killed it with said sampler, kb wanted their cut, with ridiculous terms I thought
Thank you for your support towards Ren Justin 🙏 ive always loved your music but found your youtube channels through Ren and subscribed. What an awesome dude you are my friend 🫶
Hi Justin late response from me. So glad to see a long time UK Musician of your calibre weighing in on such a serious topic. Have done gig promoting 30 odd years ago with my wife we fully understand how much of a grey area it can be. Artists and Bands playing covers live without permissions (story for another time) etc. Today its difficult to be original and sometimes using a prop can make things a bit easier but through the legal system is the best way. Gentlemanly handshakes and fist bumps are definitely not the way. Good Luck with the new album will be keeping my ear out. ❤ JL
"Permission to Land" was a huge part of my childhood. It's so cool to find you here, man, making really interesting videos. Love it. The Ren situation was mad.
The BABY is coming!!! You really should've called for clean sheets and hot water. I bet you could deliver a baby. If they named it, Justin Hawkins, you could sing, "Justin Hawkins arrives again...AGAIN." I usually charge for these ideas, but you can have this one. 😊
I always really appreciate your takes, Justin. Thank you for posting this!
@TheCharismaticVoice you just love Justin's hair!
When will we see another The Darkness reaction?
It’s dog eat dog and some dogs are a lot greedier than others. Pardon the dog puns.
Solidarity with Ren!
Hi
@@timdombrovashe reacted to the only song anyone knows by them. No one would watch
I’m an old lady and have lived through times of wonderful music. Ren is a poet for our times. We need him and we need his song.
This is an unemotional, yet compassionate, message of support for another creative artist, and it's informative to those outside the music industry. A really amazing video you didn't have to make. Well done.
One great soul supporting another great soul.

Same here. Got introduced to Ren by Justin. What an amazing discovery. Thank you, Justin

Cheers from Bulgaria 🍻
Bulgaria! Don't suppose you know the choir?
So beautiful.

I see they don't wear white but stunning, colourful, traditional outfits.

His anger became art, that art is a banger
Another Ren gem with a banger cliffhanger
I LOVE this. I LOVE that you have included a clip of Ren saying he’s released a new song about it all. Brilliant. Call. Artists supporting artists. Class.
BTW, you are looking rested and healthy, Justin! Clean Living! Looks great on you!
Amazing isn’t it. Clean living looks good on anybody. It’s definitely the way to live IMO.
