Oh my. You've just tripped over the most dynamic artist working today. And i mean artist. Dude can do anything. Keep exploring this rabbit hole. It's nothing but surprises with every new Ren video you watch.
Wonderful reaction. Welcome to the most exciting authentic, empathic artist I have ever experienced. He can write, sing, rap, beat box, produces his own beats, does mixing, acts and plays multiple instuments self taught. Hi Ren has been watched over 28 million times in 16 months. It has changed lives, including his own. I recommend Sick Boi, which was released right after this. His Sick Boi album got #1 album in UK in Oct. And his recent 4 retakes are masterpieces. My particular favorite us Seven Sins, the 1sr track on the album. New song coming out May 9th regarding his fight with Lyme disease and ME. This week he is doing 7 days of telling his story of a decade lost in response to a Million Missing Month Building awareness fir ME/CFS and Lyme. Chapter One today was gut wrenching.
I am 49 and can honestly say, despite my lifelong addiction to music, that Ren is the most astonishing artist I have ever encountered. My girlfriend said that he is like a musical decathlete only he would win all ten events individually. I cannot disagree..
Ren is amazing. He's uplifting, healing and changing the world. The RENegades are the best people on the internet, and no matter what kind of music you prefer, he probably has it in his catalog! Enjoy the ride!
Great reaction. I don’t say this lightly, this lad is a generational talent. I implore you to react to more & im sure the Ren fans will be flooding in soon with recommendations. Subbed.
I disagree, he's not a generational talent, he's a next level talent, he's transcended all music that has come before. EVERYTHING HE DOSE... is just so creative, raw, fresh. For as long as he lives he'll keep giving us album after album probably all with amazing visuals too. Will he ever reach a peak? Maybe he'll just keep getting better his whole life? ❤✌️
This is how a good majority of us Renegades came to “ discover “ Ren. [ There’s so much more going back years, as part of a band and on his own.] Ren lays himself bare and in doing so he has made many here feel seen, heard, and understood- often for the first time. There are so many different levels of his talent ( multi instrumentalist: guitar, bass, piano, drums, some trombone and cello. Not to mention beatboxing), singer songwriter, rap/ hip hop, spoken word, etc. You will get many suggestions on what to do next but which ever song or performance you choose you will be amazed.
Ren has been through some nasty shit, I copied this and post it on new reactors messages. He was bitten by a tick when he was 16 or 17 He got really sick from it and went to doctors and they could not figure what was wrong with him. When he had joint pain, muscle spasms, skin rashes, boils, internal organs started shutting down, And Doctors had no idea what was going on. He was loosing weight and had constant fatigue could not even stand to shower.. Doctors started sending him to psychological evaluations, They told him his mind was making him sick ! And started treating him for that with some heavy pharmaceuticals. And all that shit really fucked with his mind, He started believing he was crazy. And this went on for 8 fucking years !! 8 YEARS !! He pursued his own symptoms and lead to a Doctor that gave test for Lyme disease. Where he lived it was very rear to ever contract Lyme disease so he was never tested. When he went in described his symptoms the Doctor knew what he had. Ran the DNA test and found it in his system. However it has been in there for 8 years and has done a lot of damage to his body. He can only eat like 6 things his bones still hurt and the autoimmunity may never be healed. He had to go into surgery to remove tissue to generate stem cells grown outside his body then under go treatment taking the stem cells to help with the autoimmunity and help heal his deterioration of muscle, and a very aggressive antibiotics regiment to cure the Lyme disease chromosome. That was in LA then he went to Calgary and under going treatment on the damage the Lyme left.. He is still there until June. Welcome to Ren he is a talent I have never seen. And I have seen a LOT !! He has 209 songs on u tube no joke I pretty much like them all new and old !! His older lyrical videos are great try, everybody drops, He
Welcome to the genius that is Ren! He's equally, if not more so, a shining example of the best that humanity can be. Loved your reaction. I agree and personally prefer it when a reactor allows the song to play uninterrupted. Well done!🙋♀️💕
And Ren is 100% Independent !! This was all 1 take , took 4 shots but still 1 take start to finish He is known for that on his Tales stories videos.. He has been doing this for a while but his illness stopped him dead..
I smiled when you said "This is not what I expected".😉 In my opinion Ren is a musical genius at the same level as Dimash in his own unique way. Before listening to this video, I had not even considered Rap as music.🙄 Ren opened up this old ladies eyes to the point where I not only opened up to Ren but many others within this genre. Great reaction to this amazing artist❤️👍 🥰🥰Greetings from a Canadian Dear🇨🇦
Ren's on another level entirely to Dimash. Dimash has technical vocal ability and that's it. Ren has EVERYTHING! Plus, Ren can convery more emotion in a single line, or a single note, than people like Dimash manage in an entire career! Dimash mimics emotion. Ren IS emotion! It probably helps too, being a genuine creator, rather than just a performer. :)
@@Codex7777 Sadly, it would help if you did some research before making such statements. I understand enthusiasm but spreading false information about an artist that you clearly know nothing about is not acceptable.
Liked your reaction and really glad you can see how special Ren is. I agree - he is the future of music. For me he’s like a modern Bowie - you’ll see! 😂However, he’s an independent artist who (probably because of this) is rarely played on the radio. Also, due to his health difficulties, he cannot play concerts at the moment. So thank you for helping to spread the word. I recommend Chalk Outlines (the live version) next. X
Chalk outlines is absolutely one of my favourites too! It also casually introduces you to Chinchilla 😁 who will blow your socks off into a totally different rabbit hole!
Thank you! I'm so glad that you enjoyed my Hi Ren suggestion. I'm 55 and can truly say he is now my favorite Entertainer because he does it all not to mention he makes us really think. You will want to listen to his entire portfolio now. I will def send you more must sees...
I don’t even do it intentionally but I have been obsessed with absolutely everything Ren for going on two years! I barely listen to anything else! His humanity makes me love him all that much more! I do believe he is on many levers and actual genius.
nice reaction...welcome to the ren rabbithole..you have just scratched the surface...ren is unique....if u want to know more about him he has just released a new video 45mins ago chapter 1 about his story
That is worthy of anyone who has found Ren to understand who he is and where he is from and how he got to where he is today with "for joe" to top it off :)
Welcome to the Renaissance! This artist comes at you with so many styles and vibes... so here's a quick, incomplete rundown: Singing Ren: Chalk Outlines (Live), Fred Again Mashup, Back on 74/Message in a Bottle Retake Rapping Ren: The Hunger, Power, Illest of Our Time, Murderer, Genisis, Hold On Happy/Fun Ren: What You Want, Love Music 1-4 Storyteller Ren: Tales of Jenny and Screech (& Violets Tale), Money Game 1-3 Sounds like a lot, but that's not even half of it! Thing is this guy can't miss... every song is different, and every song is great. Loved your reaction, can't wait to see more! Subbed.
Ren has another channel called Renmakesstuff, where he has just started telling his story in installments. You might find it interesting. You should definitely check out the songs Sick Boi, Seven Sins, Genesis (especially the live version), the Money Game trilogy, and the Tale of Jenny and Screech (another long one - there is a 13 minute video with three tales placed in order, making up a bigger story). He's done some fantastic collaborations. My favourites are Blind Eyed with Sam Tompkins and the two songs he did with Chinchilla (especially the live versions). He was also in a band called the Big Push, and they are definitely worth checking out.
Completely in agreement with you about the positive and negative of not pausing. Plus, doing so disrespects the song/performance. Always felt that if a reactor must pause for fear of losing his/her thought, he/she should do so upon a second hearing. The first hearing should always be a full run-through. I hope you continue your current method of handling pauses going forward with the channel.
Welcome to the world of Ren enjoy your journey in the Ren averse. Ren is a breath of fresh air in music and musicianship and lyrics 🔥 New subscriber from Scotland 🏴.
Thank you for your reaction. That's the magic of Ren. I have seen more reactors who do not pay attention to the content of the lyrics, but now that they listen to Ren, they do. Ren draws you into his music. He is a master of storytelling but in a bard style. I think they call it Bardcore. Subscribed for more Ren...😁
Well done reaction! Many of us have waited through some long, bleak decades for real music that is not over-produced, has a message, and is truly unique. Ren ended the waiting. There are no wrong choices when deciding which song to do next. Every song different from the last, but they all have the same qualities that have made millions of people fall in love with Hi Ren. Just to see the variety and scope of his talent, would suggest checking out Back on 74, Money game, pt 1, 2 (lyric video), and 3, and Chalk Outlines. Subbing and hope you enjoy the journey!
If you want some nostalgia and modern all wrapped up in a beautiful package … check out REN’s mash up of back on 74 and message in a bottle. A whole different flavor of Ren. In the very best way🫶🏻
Please react to his masterpiece that is 3 songs...woven together to make a story that will blow your mind.... "The Tale Of Jenny and Screech "(FULL) version...which includes the 3rd one Violets Tale...all 3 MUST be watched together and in that order to "GET" the ending....the way he tells a story you fee like you are watching a movie...
❤😘Welcome to the world of Ren. Ren is a genius (not just musically), teacher, storyteller. He is a true badass survivor. Ren is humble and kind. He is dead honest; even if it means he has to scold us (Renegades). Ren is hope (some of us are quite ill. The missing and forgotten ones too sick to leave the house). Most of all he is music. No matter what we tell you we cannot prepare you for what he’s capable of. So, enjoy your journey down the rabbit hole. We will be following you along the way. I subbed. Remember, this is your channel and you are in charge. In other words, don’t let people get bossy. We will offer guidance and suggestions. Enjoy your trip into the Reniverse!😉❤️✌️
You cracked me up with the "oh shit" to start it off 😂 Really nice reaction and I appreciated how you let us know what your style of reacting is. Very deep message in this one. Sick Boi is a good follow up and also The Tales of Jenny and Screech (13 minute version). Chalk Outlines with Chinchilla and Ren is amazing. Fun stuff with the band he was in, The Big Push. I know u will get tons of suggestions from fellow RENagades so I'll stop here. Subbed for more! Keep up the great job! Nice beard too 😊
I love your thoughtful, honest reaction to this masterpiece. Ren is the most amazing artist I have come by in decades. I’m excited for you to take a dive into his diverse catalog of music. ❤️
Really good reaction, you are spot on, so much better to ride it out and react at the end. Ren has a huge catalogue and is so diverse, you will enjoy the rabbit hole. Subbed.
Uncomplicated, honest reaction. Love it! Can't wait for you to see more Ren . You'll be advised to do the tales of Jenny an screech.... It's a brilliant trilogy, but it's heavey, so do it when you're ready. A natural next is sick boi. Look forward to seeing more from you.
Great reaction! I love the fact that you don't pause, and I agree with your reasons. Especially when it's Ren. Hoping you will remain in the Ren rabbithole. Subbed
Rens the master of everything he does and touched from guitar/acustic and electric, piano, story telling, acting, singing all genres, and rapping! Hes gott be a alien 😂
What a great reaction 🤓😁 thoughtful and genuine i love seeing people encountering Ren for the first time and totally appreciating just how amazing and talented he is virtually straight away. I hope you do more Ren reactions 🙂
Ren is truly an Artist. Many of his videos are one-take videos where the final video is not cut from multiples. His art spans many different genres of music and really is like no other. Here is a list of recommendations broke down into different categories: Mental Health: Sick Boi Dominoes Su!cIde Bardcore (Hardcore story telling) The tales of Jenny & Screech (Full trilogy all at once) MoneyGame (3 parts - Part 2 use the lyric video) Rap: The Hunger Genesis Fisher retake The Big Push (his band) War Pigs cover I Shot the Sherrif/Road to Zion Praise you Collabs: Ren & Chinchilla - Chalk Outlines & How to be Me Ren & Sam Tompkins - Blind Eyed & What went Wrong and soooooo many more... This is literally just the surface and it's a long way down the rabbit hole. You won't regret diving in!
If you do the tales of Jenny and screech make sure you do the full version trilogy Jenny screech and finally violet's tale in that order otherwise it won't make sense 13.30 minutes of 🧠💥 awesome reaction btw welcome to the Ren rollercoaster enjoy the ride it's amazing honestly 😊Ren is definitely the future ✌️
Great reaction. I love the respect you place on the music and the artist. Regarding Ren, I think you nailed it, he's a modern day Bard. Raw, honest, powerful, clever, talented, ... superlatives never end. Most of his work is hip-hop, however you can see a different side of him on just about every track. recommend hip-hop: Power, Genesis, Seven Sins, Wicked Ways, Losing It, Animal Flow, The Hunger (all are exceptional in their own right) recommended jazz/ska influence: I Shot the Sheriff & Bongo Bong (The Big Push, a busking band Ren was in); Back on 74; Instrumental highlights: For Joe (live); Mackay; and just about any acoustic song. I think people miss this too but his song Loco is acapella, it's just easy to overlook with how we blends it. Live acting brilliance: Hi Ren (obvs); Money Game Pt 1, 3; Tale of Jenny, Screeth, & Violet (3 pt) Enjoy the journey, it's deep and amazing.
Welcome to the world of Ren. If you read about his life, illness, compassion, social issues, su1c1de etc, much of his work will make sense. He also has fun, and his busking band The Big Push is incredible. Great reaction ❤
Ren will stick in your head and i hope to see much more of him on your channel. Sooooo much content thats by a true artist and his musical genius friends 🔥
He has just posted two videos of him talking about his life, I would really recommend. I love how he uses his experiences to try to help people who might listen, he is an astonishing artist, who appears to be an astonishing human being. Ride the Ren train, it becomes an addiction! 😂
Glad you found us! Please check out The Tales of Jenny and Screech full version with Violets Tale. I've never experienced anything like it. Love watching reactions to Rens art❤
loved your reaction. btw, some reactors let it play through once and then go back for the highlights. "Back on 74 / Message in a Bottle" will surprise you.
Welcome to the RENegades family ! Ren learned the guitar by mostly watching UA-cam tutorials!! Please do the tale of jenny and screech the full version! Also this was a live one take, then there is the money game 1/2/and 3
Start anywhere. Even in King Dumb Come, which is just a diss video in reply to a rapper who attacked him, he does something surprising, beautiful and Ren-like. It will tell you all you need to know about this young man
@ToneBone TV - You want to know a mind blowing bit of info on this video, if you didn't notice, but it was shot with live mics and it was done in 1 single take. The more impressive part is that this was the 4th run through before he nailed this one. Dude. is. amazing. The rabbit hole runs deep too!!!
Great reaction, and a new sub here. I agree with you about pausing and losing the rhythm and immersion of a track. Ren's base is pretty obsessive, but mostly positive and will bombard you with backstory and recommendations. He has over 200 videos on youtube if you add in those from the two bands he was in - Trick The Fox and The Big Push. He dabbles in a wide range of styles so there's always something new and surprising to discover. Enjoy the ride!
I understand your point on interruptions HOWEVER if we wish to see videos COMPLETELY uninterrupted, WE CAN VIEW the original FROM THE ARTIST. Many of us prefer to hear the reactor's TAKE ON IT. Keep them minimal...give your thoughts as they hit you...that's what makes them interesting, or not. New sub.
I've thought about this too. It's probably best not pausing but watching it for a 2nd time. Collecting your thoughts during the 1st and 2nd watches might help to then pause at the 2nd time watching it. I think for any reaction video it's a tough call between being in the moment but stopping it so often or watching it all but missing lots of key moments everyone hopes you pick up on.
Ren has ADHD,which I think adds to his of kilter way of thinking,which in turn crafts his stories,it's the same with some autistic people,they are genius in some ways
_Ren_ is a big supporter of the reaction community! You don't get strikes on his stuff, even without pausing. But if you do, dispute it, and his team will clear it...
Ren's different. If you react to his last 4 drops, Back on 74/Message in a Bottle Retake, Nas Halftime Retake, Fred Again Mashup and Mackay (that's an original instrumental) you will get an idea of his variances in music. If you do those, I suggest you read his descriptions first. He is coming out with a new one next Thursday called Troubles. That's the best time to react usually, when they first come out.
#GabrielHenrique Number like 600😊 I leave as a suggestion for the channel's reaction the talented Gabriel Henrique with the cover I HAVE NOTTING by Whitney Houston
Thanks for your thoughtful reaction.........though the lyrics provided are not very good, the listener should just listen closely to the performance.......about "Hi Ren" : Lyme disease, MISdiagnoses, psychotropic meds, physical symptoms & pain, treatment that may continue Ren's entire life, starting at age 17 ..........any wonder his inner demons torment him ? No offense to therapists, but I believe the 'Pig/Butcher' at the start (and appearing in many Ren videos) represents Ren's opinion of many doctors and therapists, which is understandable.......of course, just my thoughts.
You're so right on pausing the songs during reactions. What's the point in pausing for 5 or even more minutes during 5 minutes long song or pausing 10 seconds before the song ends.
Oh my. You've just tripped over the most dynamic artist working today. And i mean artist. Dude can do anything. Keep exploring this rabbit hole. It's nothing but surprises with every new Ren video you watch.
💯
Welcome to the Ren Rabbit Hole. Not much of what he does will be what you expect. Very worthy of delving further.
Wonderful reaction. Welcome to the most exciting authentic, empathic artist I have ever experienced. He can write, sing, rap, beat box, produces his own beats, does mixing, acts and plays multiple instuments self taught. Hi Ren has been watched over 28 million times in 16 months. It has changed lives, including his own. I recommend Sick Boi, which was released right after this. His Sick Boi album got #1 album in UK in Oct. And his recent 4 retakes are masterpieces. My particular favorite us Seven Sins, the 1sr track on the album.
New song coming out May 9th regarding his fight with Lyme disease and ME. This week he is doing 7 days of telling his story of a decade lost in response to a Million Missing Month
Building awareness fir ME/CFS and Lyme.
Chapter One today was gut wrenching.
I am 49 and can honestly say, despite my lifelong addiction to music, that Ren is the most astonishing artist I have ever encountered. My girlfriend said that he is like a musical decathlete only he would win all ten events individually. I cannot disagree..
Pick a song, any song and Ren will surprise you in a good way.
Ren is amazing. He's uplifting, healing and changing the world. The RENegades are the best people on the internet, and no matter what kind of music you prefer, he probably has it in his catalog! Enjoy the ride!
I second that 💪😍
I third it ❤
Great reaction. I don’t say this lightly, this lad is a generational talent. I implore you to react to more & im sure the Ren fans will be flooding in soon with recommendations. Subbed.

I smiled when you said "This is not what I expected".😉
In my opinion Ren is a musical genius at the same level as Dimash in his own unique way.
Before listening to this video, I had not even considered Rap as music.🙄

Thank you for recommending & spreading the exposure further 👏👏🥰
Welcome to the rabbit hole! Hopefully you'll be a Renegade!
Welcome. Since some of REN’s songs are so long, pausing and commenting is great. Thanks for sharing REN’s artistry. #RENaissance.
I don’t even do it intentionally but I have been obsessed with absolutely everything Ren for going on two years! I barely listen to anything else! His humanity makes me love him all that much more! I do believe he is on many levers and actual genius.
nice reaction...welcome to the ren rabbithole..you have just scratched the surface...ren is unique....if u want to know more about him he has just released a new video 45mins ago chapter 1 about his story
That is worthy of anyone who has found Ren to understand who he is and where he is from and how he got to where he is today with "for joe" to top it off :)
Welcome to the Renaissance! This artist comes at you with so many styles and vibes... so here's a quick, incomplete rundown:
Singing Ren: Chalk Outlines (Live), Fred Again Mashup, Back on 74/Message in a Bottle Retake
Rapping Ren: The Hunger, Power, Illest of Our Time, Murderer, Genisis, Hold On
Happy/Fun Ren: What You Want, Love Music 1-4
Storyteller Ren: Tales of Jenny and Screech (& Violets Tale), Money Game 1-3
Sounds like a lot, but that's not even half of it! Thing is this guy can't miss... every song is different, and every song is great.
Loved your reaction, can't wait to see more! Subbed.
Ren is changing lives, he is making them brighter.
Ren has another channel called Renmakesstuff, where he has just started telling his story in installments. You might find it interesting. You should definitely check out the songs Sick Boi, Seven Sins, Genesis (especially the live version), the Money Game trilogy, and the Tale of Jenny and Screech (another long one - there is a 13 minute video with three tales placed in order, making up a bigger story).

I read your bio/ intro and I think you will enjoy REN’s use of cultural and pop references in his lyrics and rap.

I love your thoughtful, honest reaction to this masterpiece. Ren is the most amazing artist I have come by in decades. I’m excited for you to take a dive into his diverse catalog of music. ❤️

Can't wait for you to see more Ren .
You'll be advised to do the tales of Jenny an screech.... It's a brilliant trilogy, but it's heavey, so do it when you're ready.
A natural next is sick boi. Look forward to seeing more from you.
Good reaction, subbed and liked for more Ren
Thank you! Subbing for more Ren. You have only scratched the surface! ❤️❤️

I think you were my 3K subscriber! Thank you 🙏 ❤️
I subscribed just for this reaction. Love how intentive you were, and you dont pause! You gave great thoughts at the end. Very cool!
Rens the master of everything he does and touched from guitar/acustic and electric, piano, story telling, acting, singing all genres, and rapping! Hes gott be a alien 😂
We are here for your Ren journey! Subbed.
Nice reaction! Welcome to Ren
Thank you for watching without stopping!
Great reaction! Thanks for listening to Ren, we all love him!
What a great reaction 🤓😁 thoughtful and genuine i love seeing people encountering Ren for the first time and totally appreciating just how amazing and talented he is virtually straight away. I hope you do more Ren reactions 🙂
Ren is truly an Artist. Many of his videos are one-take videos where the final video is not cut from multiples. His art spans many different genres of music and really is like no other.
Here is a list of recommendations broke down into different categories:
Mental Health:
Sick Boi
Dominoes
Su!cIde
Bardcore (Hardcore story telling)
The tales of Jenny & Screech (Full trilogy all at once)
MoneyGame (3 parts - Part 2 use the lyric video)
Rap:
The Hunger
Genesis
Fisher retake
The Big Push (his band)
War Pigs cover
I Shot the Sherrif/Road to Zion
Praise you
Collabs:
Ren & Chinchilla - Chalk Outlines & How to be Me
Ren & Sam Tompkins - Blind Eyed & What went Wrong
and soooooo many more... This is literally just the surface and it's a long way down the rabbit hole.
You won't regret diving in!
If you do the tales of Jenny and screech make sure you do the full version trilogy Jenny screech and finally violet's tale in that order otherwise it won't make sense 13.30 minutes of 🧠💥 awesome reaction btw welcome to the Ren rollercoaster enjoy the ride it's amazing honestly 😊Ren is definitely the future ✌️
Great reaction. I love the respect you place on the music and the artist. Regarding Ren, I think you nailed it, he's a modern day Bard. Raw, honest, powerful, clever, talented, ... superlatives never end.
Most of his work is hip-hop, however you can see a different side of him on just about every track.
recommend hip-hop: Power, Genesis, Seven Sins, Wicked Ways, Losing It, Animal Flow, The Hunger (all are exceptional in their own right)
recommended jazz/ska influence: I Shot the Sheriff & Bongo Bong (The Big Push, a busking band Ren was in); Back on 74;
Instrumental highlights: For Joe (live); Mackay; and just about any acoustic song. I think people miss this too but his song Loco is acapella, it's just easy to overlook with how we blends it.
Live acting brilliance: Hi Ren (obvs); Money Game Pt 1, 3; Tale of Jenny, Screeth, & Violet (3 pt)
Enjoy the journey, it's deep and amazing.
Welcome to the world of Ren.
If you read about his life, illness, compassion, social issues, su1c1de etc, much of his work will make sense.
He also has fun, and his busking band The Big Push is incredible.
Great reaction ❤
Ren will stick in your head and i hope to see much more of him on your channel. Sooooo much content thats by a true artist and his musical genius friends 🔥
He has just posted two videos of him talking about his life, I would really recommend. I love how he uses his experiences to try to help people who might listen, he is an astonishing artist, who appears to be an astonishing human being. Ride the Ren train, it becomes an addiction! 😂
Glad you found us! Please check out The Tales of Jenny and Screech full version with Violets Tale. I've never experienced anything like it. Love watching reactions to Rens art❤
loved your reaction. btw, some reactors let it play through once and then go back for the highlights. "Back on 74 / Message in a Bottle" will surprise you.
Welcome to the RENegades family ! Ren learned the guitar by mostly watching UA-cam tutorials!! Please do the tale of jenny and screech the full version! Also this was a live one take, then there is the money game 1/2/and 3
Start anywhere. Even in King Dumb Come, which is just a diss video in reply to a rapper who attacked him, he does something surprising, beautiful and Ren-like. It will tell you all you need to know about this young man
Loved your reaction. Subbed for your journey of the wonderful world of Ren
@ToneBone TV - You want to know a mind blowing bit of info on this video, if you didn't notice, but it was shot with live mics and it was done in 1 single take. The more impressive part is that this was the 4th run through before he nailed this one. Dude. is. amazing. The rabbit hole runs deep too!!!
welcome RENegade!
Ren is the GOAT to me so enjoy this incredible journey👍
#Renagades, Welcome to the world of Ren!
Great reaction, and a new sub here. I agree with you about pausing and losing the rhythm and immersion of a track. Ren's base is pretty obsessive, but mostly positive and will bombard you with backstory and recommendations. He has over 200 videos on youtube if you add in those from the two bands he was in - Trick The Fox and The Big Push. He dabbles in a wide range of styles so there's always something new and surprising to discover. Enjoy the ride!
masterpiece is not too strong a word to use for this piece
Subed for more Ren!
I understand your point on interruptions HOWEVER if we wish to see videos COMPLETELY uninterrupted, WE CAN VIEW the original FROM THE ARTIST. Many of us prefer to hear the reactor's TAKE ON IT. Keep them minimal...give your thoughts as they hit you...that's what makes them interesting, or not. New sub.
Welcome to the Renegade groupies.❤❤❤
I've thought about this too. It's probably best not pausing but watching it for a 2nd time. Collecting your thoughts during the 1st and 2nd watches might help to then pause at the 2nd time watching it. I think for any reaction video it's a tough call between being in the moment but stopping it so often or watching it all but missing lots of key moments everyone hopes you pick up on.

Just subbed to join you down rens rabbithole and seeing you become a renegade!
Thank you Craig! This fat rabbit is ready! 🙏
Great reaction. Please explore more Ren. Sick Boi is in part a continuation from Hi Ren and is often recommended to listen to next for Ren💕👍🦇
Great reaction, pause or no pause it was great, thank you Sir 🙏🦉❤️🐊👍
Much appreciated
WELCOME ABOARD THE RENAGADE EXPRESS 🚂🚂🚂
Welcome to the Reniverse 😊
Ren has ADHD,which I think adds to his of kilter way of thinking,which in turn crafts his stories,it's the same with some autistic people,they are genius in some ways
_Ren_ is a big supporter of the reaction community! You don't get strikes on his stuff, even without pausing. But if you do, dispute it, and his team will clear it...
Thanks!
Welcome to the world of Ren
Ren's different. If you react to his last 4 drops, Back on 74/Message in a Bottle Retake, Nas Halftime Retake, Fred Again Mashup and Mackay (that's an original instrumental) you will get an idea of his variances in music. If you do those, I suggest you read his descriptions first. He is coming out with a new one next Thursday called Troubles. That's the best time to react usually, when they first come out.
Good job, explore the Ren rabbithole
#GabrielHenrique Number like 600😊
I leave as a suggestion for the channel's reaction the talented Gabriel Henrique with the cover I HAVE NOTTING by Whitney Houston
❤❤❤❤
Ren does not do copyright strikes, so you do not have to pause or stop the video
Every posts FACTS!!! SUB
Thanks for your thoughtful reaction.........though the lyrics provided are not very good, the listener should just listen closely to the performance.......about "Hi Ren" : Lyme disease, MISdiagnoses, psychotropic meds, physical symptoms & pain, treatment that may continue Ren's entire life, starting at age 17 ..........any wonder his inner demons torment him ? No offense to therapists, but I believe the 'Pig/Butcher' at the start (and appearing in many Ren videos) represents Ren's opinion of many doctors and therapists, which is understandable.......of course, just my thoughts.
❣️🦇❣️🦇❣️🦇❣️
You're so right on pausing the songs during reactions. What's the point in pausing for 5 or even more minutes during 5 minutes long song or pausing 10 seconds before the song ends.
This is a one take
Congrats on discovering Ren. Best artist of our lifetime.
❤❤❤
