Barrington Levy homage with the Murderer hook. I probably will not be the only one to let you know a bystander did witness this and called the police, but when he described it the situation they said that sounds like Ren and didn't bother responding to the call.
Some dude walking by called the police to report two dudes, one in a pig mask, just tried to stuff another in a car by force. The thing is, the local police know Ren - for all his antics in and around Brighton - and told him not to worry…that’ll be Ren.
Hey Parkskur! Glad you finally got to this one! Murderer is one of my favorite 'fun Ren' songs and definitely a hard banger! Certainly worthy of radio air time, if radio stopped trying to be so damned PC and rated PG. Murderer is an entirely original Ren piece, meaning there is no one else who helped in the editing, production, filming, writing, and composing except for himself and his team. Very simple video, recorded in the same building and street that Ren was living in with his buddies before he went to Calgary for his first round of treatments. The guy he kidnaps at the end of the video is a friend of Ren's named Joe Flacker (he's a great photographer and videographer, also does a lot of Ren's BTS videos), however the gentleman crossing the street on the right side of the video that seems oblivious... he's just a random stranger and had no idea that a video was being filmed. The entire video was filmed by Luke Flegg, one of Ren's friends, and there are official three cuts: when he exits the building into the street, the first transition INTO the car, then the second transition OUT of the car. Otherwise, it is all a one shot video, just not one take. Ren's friend Jake is the Driver, wearer of the Pig Mask in this video, and fellow rapper and friend, Viktus, is the spotter at the beginning of the video. Just a side affectation of one of his lines: "your daughter's home, we'll be staying home alone; condone the bone and eat it like a toblerone, bitch" is actually a line about screwing around with a person's daughter. Definitely a part of Ren's cheekiness and loving to drop really abrasive but so on point sexual innuendo into a piece. It can often go over people's heads because it happens SO quickly and most people just hear the Toblerone portion most. I do love the line: "I walk alone, sit on the authors throne; And if you want it, I'll deny it like a mortgage loan" This is so damn cheeky and so true. This is also, impo, a reference to an earlier song he had released called 'Crucify Your Culture' where he says: "Slavery through debt, you think that mortgage is to help you?" There is a clear inspiration of the song 'Murderer', a reggae track by Barrington Levy. The entire piece is simultaneously a comment on the prevalence of violence in society, particularly western forms of media expression, and his own ability to fling bars. So it's definitely a commentary piece as much as it is just a flex. I must state that the Live acoustic version is quite possibly the best version of this track from Ren. It is so good. Much peace and love to you my friend! ^^
Oh hell yeah 😊 i love this one! you should definitely do the acoustic version too. He knows how to take an incredible song and make it better. I've really enjoyed your streams lately much love ✌️
Apparently (could be just ren folklore) someone called the cops to report a kidnapping and when they saw the address the cops said oh its alright, its probably just Ren,😅😅
Apparently (again could be lore) it was the 1st guy waling on the other side of the street. He was not part of the crew and so he saw them take the guy. He called the cops. From what I've gleaned, Ren had called cops about filming there so they knew and they just told the guy ... "it's Ren" and everyone in the area apparently knew what that meant. I hope it's true.
Haha! Love how into it you get. This is such a fun one. "Psycho" Ren is great. Apparently the guy being jumped and thrown into the car is the same friend who was tied up in Animal Flow. Poor dude, lol. Btw, did you catch the "breathe" right when he has the chloroform ready? Impeccable.
This is a banger (as they all are, in one way or another!)... However, don't sleep on his acoustic versions (Live, of course) of this, Animal Flow and a few others... They just show how amazingly versatile and musically talented he is. Ask yourself this... Who else can do the breadth of things that Ren can do? I cant think of anyone!
❤ You ended on 11:11! Make a wish. Yes pedestrians did see it and even called the police, which the response was "oh it's just Ren" and I'm sure probably told them it's a video lol
It's my understanding that people have called the police on Ren more than once. They (the police ) now know it's probably just Ren doing his thing. lol
I had that same reaction to the finger bit haha. Our Boi is hilarious. Fun hanging during the live yesterday. I gotta go back to work tomorrow after a nice long break so unsure how many lives I’ll catch (but I am off Mondays and Tuesdays hint hint) haha.
omg, your “ren, you can’t be talking about peoples’ daughters like that” got an actual LOL out of me… first one today, you’re doing the lord’s work, haha
"He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it, guys someone STOP HIM!" - 🤣🤣 And I was thinking the same thing: He always just goes somewhere and records. What if people saw him with the pig man, putting someone in the car like that? 😅 Kujo should have watched more before he wen't at Ren. He could have spared himself a beat down! 😆
been looking forward to watching this one with you. such a great song. one of those i mentioned jamming to in the car. Also, the video is another one of those 1 takes. so good. #murderer 🔥
I woke up to this in my head, as I do many mornings, and this was the first video youtube suggested to me. It's such a good song. Unfortunately, as someone who got certified in hypnosis, I like to be careful of what I program my subconscious mind with and evidently it's songs about murder.
MURDERER title & hook is a tribute to Barrington Levy’s MURDERER - ua-cam.com/video/MvzdwFVDY6s/v-deo.html If you’re wondering, this is not a one take. Somewhere on Joe E Sparks (ua-cam.com/video/rZqNBaISaXQ/v-deo.html) comments, Luke Flagg said this: so we actually had to hide a cut going in and out of the car because it was just me on camera and also shooting in a moving car with really specific camera movements and focus..I didn't know anyone who could do it the way I wanted, so I just had to end the first shot be leaning as far into the car as I could with the camera. Then cut and open the door, sit in the car. Then hold camera out of the car window as far as I can and record as I bring it in again, starting the next shot. Hardest thing was to 99% match the overlapping shots in that moment it goes through the window: angle, composition, etc. So there's a freeze frame where the inside of the car is a different shot to the outside of the car. BLOOPER ALERT: Did you notice at (8:06) the last car on the right is a dark colored car, then after the camera comes out the window there is a white car there. Time 4:29 Staircase scene from LOSING IT
The person put in the trunk is the same person who ends up chained up at the start of the Animal Flow video so it is a continuation in the other order. Also check out the live version as everyone else probably said
Amazing reaction as always. I know you are working your way through the Sick Boi album, but you really do need to check out the acoustic version of Murderer as well as Animal Flow when you get a chance.
Ahahaha by the time i get here everyone has already told YOU EVERYthing heh so yea man i just want to tell ya that i am so **Luvin** how much ya are getting into it to the point to where he IS actually freakin ya OUT Ha F YEA **Luvit** ya **ROCK**
You'll never look at a Toblerone in quite the same way again. Apart from featuring in endless memes, the Toblerone now features in animated Discord emojis too ... they should be paying him for free advertising to all those thirsty fans who now can't get enough of Ren's Toblerone 🤣 The hook is a cover of Barrington Levy's Reggae song 'Murderer'. The live is great ... a very different vibe filmed in the LA Hills whilst they were there meeting with streaming platforms (Spotify etc.) in connection with the album release.
So the buddy they just kidnapped is the dude that you saw tied up in Animal Flow😂 I see everyone says accoustic version, don't they trust you to make the right choice every time?😁 Thanks (as usual!) for starting out my day in a MOST excellent way!! 🫶
The Police were called while filming this video ,,, Ren said Make sure you check out the Acoustic Live Murderer It is different from this one and so good 🔥🔥
Those versus about murder are odd from Ren because it’s contrary to his character. That’s said, I know he used to be a brawler. I grew up in similar circumstances where fighting comes with the territory. Sounds like Ren was almost as bad as we were! 😂
For some the Acousitic is as good and different.... for this one, believe it or not, the acoustic is better.Popularity wise I would imagine this is would be in the top 5 I imagine.
The Acoustic version is even better. Don't be scared of Ren, unless your name is Kujo. Loving your Ren journey.
💯...😂
Love the acoustic version
I agree!!
Acoustic version is better in my opinion. But Ren doesn't have a bad track..
Slaughterhouse was the first video that he spent some big money he said.
Barrington Levy homage with the Murderer hook. I probably will not be the only one to let you know a bystander did witness this and called the police, but when he described it the situation they said that sounds like Ren and didn't bother responding to the call.
Literally came here to say that😂

Much peace and love to you my friend! ^^
Not song related but the ad that played when I started this video was for 'Rens pets' which is a pet store in Ontario Canada. 😂 made me laugh
Please check out the acoustic too. I loved hanging with you on your lives. I love your chill vibe
Oh hell yeah 😊 i love this one! you should definitely do the acoustic version too. He knows how to take an incredible song and make it better. I've really enjoyed your streams lately much love ✌️
Thanks so much!!! I will def check it out!
Animal flow live is always amazing!! ❤
The perfectly choreographed camera angles are so impressive too.
So hard to choose, but "Murderer Acoustic" I think remains my all time favorite - among 50 'near' all time favorites!
Acoustic versions of his songs are all amazing. Lots of difference from originals.
If you haven’t already, you need to hear the live version. It’s awesome.
I'm adding it to my list!
Apparently (could be just ren folklore) someone called the cops to report a kidnapping and when they saw the address the cops said oh its alright, its probably just Ren,😅😅

Murderaaaaa! BANGER!
Ready to go!
The acoustic of both animal flow and murderer are must see videos! They are like an entirely new track!
This is a banger (as they all are, in one way or another!)... However, don't sleep on his acoustic versions (Live, of course) of this, Animal Flow and a few others... They just show how amazingly versatile and musically talented he is. Ask yourself this... Who else can do the breadth of things that Ren can do? I cant think of anyone!
The live acoustics of all his songs are so so good.
I think my favorite is when folks do Troubles both at the same time. ❤
❤ You ended on 11:11! Make a wish. Yes pedestrians did see it and even called the police, which the response was "oh it's just Ren" and I'm sure probably told them it's a video lol
Now watch rens live murderer....
8:37 someone did see this scene and called the cops! Lmao
You are always good at catching possible double meanings…. Thanks for an excellent react!
Oh I love this one. Such a banger.
Apparently the first time they tried to film this a passerby did think something was going on and spoiled the shot.
What a GREAT way to start my day.
Thank you.
It's my understanding that people have called the police on Ren more than once. They (the police ) now know it's probably just Ren doing his thing. lol
YES ❤Do the live acoustic version too 🙏
I had that same reaction to the finger bit haha. Our Boi is hilarious.
Fun hanging during the live yesterday. I gotta go back to work tomorrow after a nice long break so unsure how many lives I’ll catch (but I am off Mondays and Tuesdays hint hint) haha.
Now you have to react to the live acoustic version according to the lore
omg, your “ren, you can’t be talking about peoples’ daughters like that” got an actual LOL out of me… first one today, you’re doing the lord’s work, haha
As soon as he gets into the car thats where the song comes alive absolute lethal bars !! I say this everytime but he is a Genius!!
"He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it, guys someone STOP HIM!" - 🤣🤣
And I was thinking the same thing: He always just goes somewhere and records. What if people saw him with the pig man, putting someone in the car like that? 😅
Kujo should have watched more before he wen't at Ren. He could have spared himself a beat down! 😆
❤❤❤A Favourite❤❤❤
MUST do the acoustic version, too. It's FIRE!!!
The hook is an homage to an old Reggae singer, Barrington Levy.
🤯
been looking forward to watching this one with you. such a great song. one of those i mentioned jamming to in the car. Also, the video is another one of those 1 takes. so good. #murderer 🔥

The guy at the end is the guy in the beginning of Animal Flow that is tied up. Also you gotta check out the acoustic version of this and Animal Flow
1:39 wait til he stuffs this dude in the trunk! Lmfao
Ren said that the man at the end in the trunk of the car he's the man you see at the beginning of Animal Flow 😂 😘

that's Joe Flacker @Flackerz
he now does a lot of BTS editing for Ren and also shot the b/w photo that's still on Ren's Patreon profile
Can’t wait for you to do Love Music Pt 4 (it’s a lyric video). The whole sick boi album is pure 🔥🖤
Let's go!!! This will always be in my Ren Top 5 😀
I FREAKIN LOOOVE this song soooo much! Acoustic is pure magic too 😊❤
A+++ reaction 😊
Funny bit of Ren lore.... someone did in fact call the cops on them for the kidnapping scene. The cops apparently knew it was Ren, lol.
Amazing reaction as always. I know you are working your way through the Sick Boi album, but you really do need to check out the acoustic version of Murderer as well as Animal Flow when you get a chance.
There is NO WAY Kujo even LOOKED at some of RENs work! If so there’s no way he’d of poked that bear! Lmfao😂
Live version of this and Animal Flow they are fire !
Someone did record them putting the guy in the car. And said "this only happens in Brighton " 😂
The Live should come next!! Beautiful scenery! And references/homages
Dude, you absolutely must listen to his live version performance on an LA rooftop at sunset
The Guy in the trunk, supposed to be the captured Guy in animal flow. I heared:)
Banger! My favorite❤ loved your reaction❤❤
Not Marley, Barrington Levy!
Acoustic is almost a minute longer and absolute fire.
O ly 2 camera cuts ad the videographer wrnt on and out of the car.
Ahahaha by the time i get here everyone has already told YOU EVERYthing heh so yea man i just want to tell ya that i am so **Luvin** how much ya are getting into it to the point to where he IS actually freakin ya OUT Ha F YEA **Luvit** ya **ROCK**
Do the acoustic version!!! It's amazing!
I love Ren but not letting either of my daughters anywhere near him
You HAVE TO DO THE ACOUSTIC VERSION! It’s even better! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
You'll never look at a Toblerone in quite the same way again. Apart from featuring in endless memes, the Toblerone now features in animated Discord emojis too ... they should be paying him for free advertising to all those thirsty fans who now can't get enough of Ren's Toblerone 🤣 The hook is a cover of Barrington Levy's Reggae song 'Murderer'. The live is great ... a very different vibe filmed in the LA Hills whilst they were there meeting with streaming platforms (Spotify etc.) in connection with the album release.
This is a banger but the acoustic is equally good in a different way. I have to dance 💃 it wonderful even with all the murdering
So the buddy they just kidnapped is the dude that you saw tied up in Animal Flow😂
I see everyone says accoustic version, don't they trust you to make the right choice every time?😁
Thanks (as usual!) for starting out my day in a MOST excellent way!! 🫶
🔥
OMG it's Xmas ... three reactions in 2 days :) :)
Straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Like someone else is probably said, check out the acoustic version for a completely different vibe.
Great reaction you have to do the live acoustic version peace out
Thanks, I'll add it to my list!
This is my ringtone😂❤
The Police were called while filming this video ,,, Ren said Make sure you check out the Acoustic Live Murderer It is different from this one and so good 🔥🔥
🎉🎉🎉
Those versus about murder are odd from Ren because it’s contrary to his character. That’s said, I know he used to be a brawler. I grew up in similar circumstances where fighting comes with the territory. Sounds like Ren was almost as bad as we were! 😂
Again now watch the acoustic version.
Sorry I gave you a spoiler, I forgot you hadn’t reacted to this. The kidnapped is the one at the beginning of Animal Flow hanging/tied up
Hi.did you realise that all his videos are one takes ?
This video has amazingly smooth cuts but it isn't a one-take. Ren sez.
Knox Hill better watch out, there’s a new kid in town!
🙏🙏🙏 that means so much bro! ty
It's true, you catch bars that Knox misses. Soon the routine for a new Ren drop will be to check you and Knox first for the breakdowns. No pressure.
I'm ready for it! 😈
hide yo daughters 😂
Thanks for this reaction! Try the live acoustic version; it's even better than this one in some ways!!!
Fantastic reaction, I do prefer the live version, many thanks 🙏🦉❤️🐊👍
Ren wouldn't murder you!!! I got ya. Me and Ren are Welsh brethren. No bother brawd
❤️
🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💕
For some the Acousitic is as good and different.... for this one, believe it or not, the acoustic is better.Popularity wise I would imagine this is would be in the top 5 I imagine.
Honestly I like the acoustic version more. ❤
ill have to check that out! Thanks for being here! ❤️
❤❤❤❤❤
I love Toblerone!!

It's more buju banton
The acoustic version of Murderer is better.
