Without your channel, I would never have heard of this guy. Thank you and thank you to your subscribers. What a unique experience listening/watching this man's craft. Another banger 🔥

[@JulitaLena123]

That's why we Renegades love reacting channels, the more people hear about Ren, the happier we are, his catalogue is huge, will blow out your mind, definitely have a look Money Game part 3🙂

[@rogerstarkey5390]

PART 3 IS GOING TO BLOW YOUR MINDS!

[@AD270479]

He hasn't blown up over there for 2 reasons, because of the context of his songs & because he has no label behind him. And tbh, he isn't mainstream over here either for the same reasons. But the reason he's still made it to the top is because he's one of our own & we love the stuff he's doing whether the radio play him or not & because he's done it with no label behind him. And if he ever does get a label & go mainstream, he'd have to stop making the kind of music that he makes & start making the same old stuff the industry is wanting, instead of what the people want. So hopefully that never happens. That's why we need to support him more than ever, one man can't make a change alone.

[@matt01506]

Same situation as tom Mcdonald. No label and anti establishment lyrics. Sod the record labels and the msm.

[@russellsearch7925]

Brilliantly put

[@Cunning.Stunt7]

He was once signed with Sony, around the age of 17-18 but was dropped/lost the label due to his misdiagnosed Limes and the auto immune/psychosis agony... He has stayed independent since, and I believe has turned down several label offers too. I bet Sony are SPITTING! 🤗😝

[@peterscott3276]

You arent wrong. I hope Ren manages to smash down those arbitrary borders though. Music as a whole needs this man. The bext generation of artists could grow up inspired by him.

[@Studio_234]

He’s blowing up over here too. His best works aren’t started yet. The world needs the song that is still inside

[@rogerstarkey5390]

Remember the line "Turns a Saint into a Sinner, a Child into a Killer, his finger on the trigger of a money game" . It's relevant.

[@DazzleMonroe]

This man makes you think. I first heard him a year ago, and I've yet to be disappointed. His last album went straight in at number 1.

[@Jason_xofilos]

In the UK and as an independent artist not signed with a label. Still an amazing achievement do without the backing of a label.

[@papacarl2002]

Heck Yeah! Two of my longtime favorite reactors reacting to two brilliant pieces by Ren. He absolutely is making performance art, music, cinema, poetry - f’kn brilliant. I was struck how lovely the piano is at the very end of money game 2, and how that ties into the piano at the beginning of money game 3… Which has GOT TO BE on your shortlist now! Also intrigued by how moved and shook you both were by all of the devastating points Ren is making. Hold onto your butts, MG Part 3 is gonna blow you away! 🤘🏼🎧🤟🏼

[@mattjones2726]

Loved it! I hope to see Part 3 soon. Btw, the burning man that you were thinking of during the first video wasn't Tiananmen Square, it happened in Vietnam. Thich Quang Duc was protesting the government's oppression of Buddhism in 1963. Part of the image was used for Rage Against the Machine's debut album, another band who dealt with hard truths (check out "Know Your Enemy", "Down Rodeo", and "Testify").

[@TheAdventuresofTNT]

Thanks. I think I got it confused.

[@AD270479]

@@TheAdventuresofTNT Tiananmen Square was the man who blocked a fleet of tanks by standing in front of them.

[@robmarar]

@@TheAdventuresofTNT It was a great reaction, AND YES please finish the Money Game trilogy🤑. Ren said Money Game Part 3 was his greatest and most challenging music video to date. I personally believe it's a master piece & he out does parts 1 & 2 yet ties them altogether in a way that'll blow your mind. I could go on and on but you really need to watch it to fully appreciate it. Cheers🍻😍

[@jenniferfoster1692]

Yes about Thich Quang Duc. I live in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) & have been through the intersection where he self-immolated endless times. There's a small shrine to him on one corner & a nice green area with a big, beautiful statue showing him on fire, on the opposite corner. That event was obviously the first thing I thoguht about when I saw this video.

[@treborretsnom6186]

Yup

[@dave.james007]

I'm looking forward to seeing your reaction to part 3, fantastic reaction btw 👍

[@dougoneill7266]

I think Ren just reached number 3 in the USA album charts as an independent artist. so someone is listening to him over there. One of the many choices you have is to only take what you need from the cookie jar and to vote for different people offering different things to the Republican, Democrat duopoly.

[@WelshAmethystGirl087]

He did get the number 1 album in the uk beating rick Astley for the top spot

[@keltickelly81]

Not one lie told. Ren is an intelligent young man.

[@ericpetty8387]

It was the Buddhist monk during the Vietnam era that set himself on fire. The Chinese incident was the man standing in front of a tank

[@shazza175]

I had a feeling it wouldn't take you another 9 months to get back to Ren 🙃 Thanks for another great reaction! Please keep going on the Ren journey! So. Many. Incredible. Pieces.

[@dantallman5345]

Liked your comments. Btw- Ren often pins the lyrics in the comments. He ripped through a lot of stuff at hyper speed in MG1 and if you want to check out what you might have missed.

[@CindyBaucom-sb1hd]

Great reaction. You’re gonna love part 3.

[@davidholwell2060]

Thank you both for reacting to Ren. I think you'll find he is becoming pretty big in the US and Australia.

[@thatcanadianwhitetrashguy]

I'm glad Your a RENegade Now. If You want Great Reactions from Tasha, Try watching Ren from the Beginning of Trick the Fox and Play His Songs in Order. They tell a Story that is Amazing when You add Rens Posts of when He First became Sick. Tasha would Love the Story Line because Ren is always Referring back to Previous Songs. Peace Guys Love the Reactions

[@carlahelin5203]

Your reactions are priceless (no connection to $ intended). Ren sure has a way of creating music very pleasing to the ears and also speaks volumes of uncomfortable truths. From mental health issues to corruption. These sometimes hot potato 🥔 issues are put out there in easier to swallow lyrics. Ren is a genius at what he does. 🤯 Money Game III is an obvious next. I’m sure other “Renagades” will pipe in with other selections. There really is no wrong move when digging around. He has a huge catalog to tap into and explore. Have fun entering into the rabbit hole 😊

[@user-vp1qw1ft2k]

Hi, great reaction I'm 54 and grew up loving music, listening to the greats krs1 arron Neville bill withers etc, from around 2000 I got so bored with the same old same old tunes being regurgitated main stream tosh, then by chance found Ren who has literally turned me my family and friends into 14 yr old fan girls😁 there is not a single track that hasn't resonated, this guy Ren is a blessing we all need in these crazy times, any track by Ren is pure fire and I'm not exaggerating, some tracks need to be heard a few times and his talent and art just grows and grows, let's do as you yourself said and it's upto us to make his art shine, after money game 3, dive in his list you will not be disappointed, shocked flawed and emotionally touched definitely, spread the love it's the only way we survive

[@SirLicky]

gotta do money game 3 now! thanks guys!

[@jenniferfoster1692]

For more Ren singing live & playing electirc guitar, watch his band The Big Push play I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop. Everyone loves it. They played on the street in Brighton, England for some years and got big crowds. All the band members are very talented.

[@intothedepthscoco]

But his independent album Sick Boi was #1 just in the UK in October, when it came out (he beat Rick Astley's new album, which is good and from a long time loved British singer) and it made charts in the US too, all from his own production and the help of friends and the YT reaction community. The Big Push was his busking band in Brighton and you should do some of their videos. The amount of hours he puts into voice sound tuning to turn a one take video, using a lav mic, guitar direct plug in and camera. He puts so much dedication behind everything while being very ill it's impressive and needed. His best and biggest production for a video is Money Game 3, which you should have done all 3. Or at least do pt 3.

[@mixy5179]

Andrew Lloyd Webber gave a shout out to Ren for Money Game 3...can't wait for you both to watch it. Hello from ON, Canada!

[@davidperkins6752]

i've always loved your reactions. today just added a whole new dimension of respect that i have for you. thanks so much for reacting to Ren. the dude's without a doubt my favourite artist. really hoping you react to money game pt3. much love to you both.

[@rogerstarkey5390]

Ren is the establishment, protected from "the rain" (the poncho) The guitarist is "us" (the population) when the population becomes aware (eyes) something has to give. If you can't burn the population, those in control lose protection (the poncho comes off) and the system burns. (Revolution?)

[@patcow9999]

I was wondering what you'd make of the Money Game songs, first one done pre-Covid, 2nd I think during (hence a lyric video), No.3 recently released, you are going to be blown away by that one! You're right, he goes to places you simply won't see a contracted recording artist go, dropping truth bombs galore. In terms of US recognition, it is very much happening thanks largely to you and your fellow reaction community. Money Game 1 and 3 are essentially one takes (bar an essential sleight of hand in 3). He's incredible at this genre. In my many years listening to music, having seen some of the greats live, I have never seen anything as extraordinary as Ren. His stories about his battle with Lyme disease and effects the misdiagnoses had are reflected in many songs, as is the extraordinary story about his friend who took his own life, covered beautifully in a few of his songs, such as For Joe. Loved your reaction TNT!

[@TheRealBrianP]

Y’all are awesome.

[@lulumeto]

I've already commented several times during this reaction but I just wanted to acknowledge that you recognized the powerful line "swallow all your morals that's a poor man's quality". So. Damn. True!

[@blackcountrybloke6788]

Rens video to MG3 is truly a masterpiece.

[@sympotaz2960]

You said about ren not being on certain radio stations in the US due to the context of his lyrics, but someone can correct me if i am wrong, but to my knowledge ren has only appeared once on the radio here in the uk and that was for his recent album release with the song uninvited which is a 'radio edit song' (although it contains no curse words its a very naughty song lol). Edit: if you are not aware number 10 downing street is the Prime ministers office.

[@kennethriddle433]

The main reason I think Ren hasn't blown up in the US as much is that his performances really require you to watch the video at the same time to get the whole effect.

[@JimmyWallace284]

Really love y'alls reaction! Can't wait for the Money Game 3 reaction - that one gave me chills!

[@hellscornalien8286]

Love the Content keep it coming Ren is worth the rabbit hole he has a lot of songs out now after his album release

[@onnadonovan8228]

Ive watched MANY reactors with this video and you 2 are the 1st ones to explain the ending clearly. "Putting fuel on the fire" and "setting himself on fire in PROTEST". Wow! Now i understand the analogy of his actions. Thank you!

[@rogerstarkey5390]

I don't think it was protest. . I think that it was revolution. . A corrupt establishment without protection, "burns". . He showed the population gaining sight (awareness) of the corruption.

[@kristineteall368]

People miss the fact he’s giving a history lesson, look into Shell Oil company. They started selling shells before oil…

[@allybandy3047]

We are also all a part of the money game in the sense that we often forget over 90% of the world has less than we do as a people. Look around the house and find something you made from earth to completion. Likely can't find it. Someone mines, grows, works for the things we consider natural as a clock.

[@user-dv3gv7hh5w]

Love your reactions! Especially when Ren s words hit home as something we think but never say out loud. He's a brave genius

[@louannlang7471]

I've watched you folks on several occasions and for me, this one WON MY HEART as well as my sub (not that that is any great feat lol) anyway I FELT something different this time, with this particular reaction.

Ren is an artist we need in these times,to get the truth out to the flocks of sheep.We are mostly centrist but made to think there is left and right so there is always a conflict of some sorts with that ideology.He has opened my mind over the last 2 years,wise beyond his years,whereas he uses his brain and tongue to deliver metaphorical bo##s,corrupt government use military ones,in the Matrix always follow the money to see the real truths.Its not just America its a Worldwide phenomenon,but Ren is one too! Modern forcefed Music via large Corporations have paid agendas,that are bordering on psyops just the same as the news people watch,the narrative is divide conquer and distract.....Great reaction

[@AP-gb3eh]

I think he is asking us to open our eyes to what we pay attention too,how we spend our money. What we endorse is important and what we refuse to endorse. He does all of his films independently with his partner . That’s why you won’t see him promoted ,because they don’t have a profit stream into his success

[@mitchellhartman6205]

so glad you two got it, it's up to you to spread the word !!! Ren tells the truth about everything so we can change the world for the better..keep going

The mainstream will never play this stuff. They might let you see his safer stuff but even then they'd be frightened that it would lead to the public seeing this. It's not just the message that frightens them it's his amazing delivery that hits home with the common sense of his words.

[@robertcrowley4599]

I have 5 Independent artists as my top artists of 2023 in my music recap of the year. Ren is number 1 on that list. Thats not by mistake lol. Politicians are manipulating everything. Yeah you cant even live off the grid, there are laws where you cant collect rain eater, cant plant fruit trees, truancy laws, must be connected to the power grid. One city vondemned a Veterans whole property solely for being 100% off the grid. He was self sufficient and they wouldnt allow it. He was young too plus in his right mind (not a hermit, religious zealot, prepper or anything).

Quan Duc is the monk you were thinking of who burned himself to death in protest. I never related this with that but great observation.

[@michaelgrabner8977]

The video is basically a summery trail and Ren is prosecutor + judge + executioner in personal union. The anonymous defendent is "the money game" ( And because "A Game" is always "played" so therefore the money game "plays the guitar", as a sort of symbolism for "the money game sets the tone" in our lifes) At the end "the money game" isn´t anonymous anymore but got a face and Ren in his final role as executioner while looking in its face at his try to set it on fire he instantly realized "We are all part of this old money game" (= Chorus line and theme of the entire song") = including himself so in order to fulfill the verdict he had to execute himself in order to destroy the money game. Part one is basically "The Introduction" into the topic Part two is then "The Explaination" into the topic by explaining how the money game is played. Part three will then be "The Ramification" and you will see then why when watching and reacting to it. By the way "paying taxes" is not "being part of the money game" per se BUT "voting those corrupt people - who are playing the money game solely for their own benefits and solely for the benefits for the filthy rich - into power" is "actually being part of the money game".. Denying paying taxes is changing nothing in behalf of the money game but is just hurting society even more = schools, police, firefighters, justice enforcement are then no more without taxes = no eduction, no protection from crime and from any calamities and no law enforcement = Death of civilized living = "Welcome to the Apocalypse"
