American Rapper Reacts | Ren - Humble (Feat. Eden Nash) REACTION

[@dovlassaturnus7805]

I believe Ren wrote all lyrics.

[@hildehaerynck3088]

He did.

[@Cdaddy78]

Just tell him it was somebody else, he'll respect it more. 😂

[@johannahonig2372]

​@@Cdaddy78like that super talented producer he owes his success to 😂

[@Proud.American58]

Next up: Ren with Eden Nash doing “Ocean” and then Ren’s “Life is Funny”

[@DavidSmith-cc5hk]

"Hold On"

[@Proud.American58]

@@DavidSmith-cc5hk also good. Then there’s “Dear God” which is deep and KSO likes lyrics that have meaning

[@lbow09]

I really like this song!!! This and "Ocean", they are both incredible! He brought all of his alien friends with him when he landed! Aren't we lucky people?!?!?!?

[@SkaterWillsy]

The moment you recognise ren is singing this - FUCKING PRICELESS!!! 😂😂😂

[@dgoodall]

What’s great is that you are now getting the range of talent that is Ren. He’s writing, producing, playing, singing, rapping, and most of all*performing*. No record company behind him. Don’t have to love every single thing he releases, but you have to love the explosion of creativity, and you have to respect the hustle !

[@larrycohen5553]

No idea, but no question Ren wrote her part for sure.

[@icyravens]

I've often wondered if he wrote all of the verses on this one, it just seems to have his fingerprints all over it (e.g. "gallows" is used in at least a few of his songs). No shade to Eden, that might just be the literary-analysis part of my brain on overdrive.

[@yesherabsal6221]

Yupp, Only Ren can write this stuff…

[@kpodonnell7924]

@@eryksunApple Music refers to Chinchilla and Ren as the songwriters for How to be Me. For Humble, it refers to Eden Nash and Ren as the songwriters.

[@rael1999]

This is the dude's back catalogue....I mean how did they keep the lid on this shit for the last four years ! He's got so many layers !

[@Wandering_Warchyld]

It's amazing what people can't see till they are pointed to it. I am lucky I hunt for content, because I seem to find everyone before they blow up but I am still always scared there some super talent I am missing. There was a UK band called king of slugs way back in the MySpace scene that got me turned on to an unsigned Ed Sheeran and helped get my ear into the unsigned indy UK scene but still feel like the whole big world gots more great talent than I can ever find or consume.

[@kimberlyelizabeth6052]

I love Rens back catalog ❤ keep in mind this new album is just him having fun with beats and words. Much love

[@amandavanwyk5424]

Ren and Eden Nash “Ocean” is one of my favorites by Ren.

[@waxingmiracle]

Absolute banger!

[@mrsainsburys1]

It’s all my kids want on the CD player in the car lol 🙏❤️🐊👍🦉

[@helenjarvis7755]

​@@mrsainsburys1they have good taste in songs

[@kellyt5341]

Ren wrote the whole song...including Edens part. Just like he writes his own beats and produces his own music. Edens mostly did covers and hasn't done anything in a long while.

[@waxingmiracle]

She has some new music coming soon, yay!

[@Psyco913]

I think it's important that Ren makes positive music like this as well as the music with darker themes that you don't seem to like as much. The fact is there are people out there currently struggling with the same issues that he brings up in those darker songs and if Ren only made positive music like this they wouldn't even be able to hear it because it would sound like it was coming from someone who they can't relate to. Now think about someone who hears about Ren's struggles in a darker song that they can relate to and then hears a song like this. He's demonstrating that he has been to the same lows that they have and he has been able to build himself back up and find a more positive and healthy way to live. That message would be incomplete without first connecting with them where they are.

[@rebeccaburnell9319]

As a person living with 2+ decades of significant mental health struggle (though it's improved somewhat over where it once was, when it was REALLY bad), THIS.

[@Jinxy44]

Exactly. Just as he said in ‘Hi Ren’ no light without the dark. ❤

[@normaleehi]

1:30 "they say once we aren't able to laugh anymore, we won't be able to keep fighting" I've never heard that before. thank you. that hits deep. I haven't laughed much in a very long time. this is extreme perspective. xx

[@upnorth7366]

Penitence with Molly McKenna is a MUST 🔥 Way underplayed!!!

[@pennytipp]

Yes 🙌 this is in my top 3 Ren and I love how Eden’s voice complements his!

[@ryanbozzelli2536]

I love how kso makes every song a conversation piece, love these reactions

[@VideosbyLisaLisa]

*squeal* So happy you reacted to this! It's on my commute playlist (along with their other, "Ocean") so I can get motivated. Love it. ("Power," "What You Want," "Murderer" and "Losing It" are on there too 😊.) I need a little upbeat Ren in the a.m. 😍 P.S. 😂 Who is that? Is that Ren?! 😂 Dude's a chameleon with his voice.

[@Snorlaxin_85]

He was not preaching a way out... he was showing the pain that Suicide leaves behind.

[@Kirei_Hana]

If Ren doesn't be like this he wouldn't be here where he is, so I also feel like this is how he really is and I love it. He's humble and works his ass off against all odds.

[@simonearnshaw6531]

Eden Nash's vocal performance on Humble is fantastic. However, Ren wrote all her lyrics. That said she delivered perfectly for him. Great track.

[@KittyInTheGarden]

Love this song, and Ocean (also with Eden) too. Glad you like it. Ren mentioned they recorded a third song together as well but sadly he doesn't have any immediate plans to release it. I bet he'd be thrilled to hear you talking about the song in relation to Lauryn Hill, since she's one of his favourite artists. It made me laugh when you couldn't tell if it was Eden or Ren singing! He's definitely got range. If I understood you right you're saying that Ren should only make positive songs as an example, and that all the 'mopey' stuff and anything negative is likely to mislead people? If that's what you're saying then I disagree. I think an artist's responsibility is to express themself truthfully, whether that be positive or negative, intellectual or silly at times. Ren is one of the most honest musicians I have come across, and isn't afraid to talk about all sorts of subjects that people often avoid. In my mind that can only be a good thing.

[@ladonna9938]

This is consistently in my top 3 favorite Ren songs, usually number 1

[@belgand5555]

Sadly he can’t do shows as he is in treatment for his illness, but hopefully soon by next year..I see 😳 you in your feelings..♥️

[@Rob-eo7ku]

I remember he got an offer to appear at this years Glastonbury (huge UK music festival) couldn't do it as he's still going through treatment in Canada. But as his health improves there will at some point be a tour. I for one will will be at one of them for sure.

[@Cdwny]

Ren's health issues have kept him from performing shows/tours. He's hoping to be well enough soon to perform some shows. I imagine it will be in a limited format.

[@rebeccaburnell9319]

Yep - hard to commit to playing a show when your health means you can"t commit to being well enough to *perform* on any given night. It'll be why he loves busking and did so much of it - pack your stuff up and go, if you feel good. If you don't feel good, it's not a problem to NOT go (although some of the best busking locations might require some communication/organizing with whatever authority or organization "controls" the space).

[@hopelaurel2207]

Hoping he will do a Las Vegas venue. He won't have to go through the stress of traveling from one venue to another. ❤

[@clintonchico9547]

This is my favorite by Ren. I wouldn't say Su!cide is preaching that sort of behavior. When his friend jumped, Ren just missed being there. The beginning of the song felt like it was from Joe's pov, and the second half was Ren's regret and farewell to his friend.

[@scottbrittain2902]

Every word in all of his songs other than the covers/retakes are written by ren

[@scottbrittain2902]

@@eryksun I stand corrected. I mean I did know about french song but I totally forgot about that song

[@mldkenny]

Penitence with Molly McKinna is amazing as is Ocean with Eden again. Love your reaction to this one, really do.

Your hilarious genuine wisdom filled reactions are a thing to see! I honestly forgot about you becasue I’ve watched so many hundred ten reactions nf you’ve not popped up in a while but I’m in my way to watch some more of your Ren reactions! You are seriously one loving brilliant man and we are so blessed to have youcome into our lives! Have a beautiful day everyone!! Damn I can’t get enough of being included in this group of Renegades! I love seeing the passionate ones like you!

[@callumsmith7404]

His reaction when ren started 😂

[@BrandonWestfall]

If you want more upbeat music like this from Ren check out Ocean and Losing It. All of his work with The Big Push is also super chill as well. (And filled with insane talent) One of my personal favorites is Freckled Angels which was written as a tribute to his friend Joe Hughes after his passing.

[@kiblams]

When Ren sings about suicide, it's almost always him singing about his friend who did ot when they were younger.

[@ManneyM]

Great reaction.... not sure if you have checked out the Rens band, The Big Push.... they do a mashup live on the street, that is sublime.... "I shot the sheriff/Road to Zion/Little bit of Luck/Hip Hop" if you haven't, you really need to

[@Crabby8]

This shoots straight in to my top 5 favourite reactions of yours. I had a feeling you’d like this one mate. Much more your bag, like it’s much more mine. Absolutely top work as usual, brother. 💪 The shouts for you to do ‘Ocean’ next are extremely valid. I’d also like you to do - ‘Do You Believe’. I think you’ll like both for very different reasons. For me you’re one of the best around and your positivity vibe really resonates with me. 🫡 And in case you’re wondering, in no particular order, This, Dave (Black), Mic Righteous FITB part 4, Dappy Daily Duppy , Akala part 4….and a special mention for the Wretch 3 2 FITB part 5 review.

[@Wandering_Warchyld]

Ocean with Eden Nash is another great pne... definitely recommend earlier Ren songs like Heretic and Domino's for you to check out

[@survivalrush]

Dominoes is one of my favs. The lyrics highlight this age perfectly

[@yesherabsal6221]

Love them both but for me the Heretic lyrics are some of the best ever written. “the elephant in the room is that my room is in the elephant…”

He has a long history of busking in the streets with his band and Sam Tompkins, as you may know. Plus there is a live performance of him with "hi Ren". Some day he'll go on tour i hope.

[@ricksurratt9034]

Dude you crack me up 🎉

[@NilZed1]

Ren is a talent magnet. That’s the only answer. Sam Tompkins, Eden, Chinchilla, Liv Sangster, . All the Big Push, Sam PV and all the other video related artists.

[@riverlove6820]

-because he is humble and not a narcissist or ego-maniac. He sincerely wants those around him to shine in their own light.

[@stevebrown9955]

Eden Nash is a very beautiful young woman with a amazing and beautiful voice

[@ridgeback4374]

Anyone that hated on this man for his suicide reaction owes him an apology after this one. No one can call this man inconsistent

[@derekcartner4826]

Ren wrote the song and Eden helped him out, works really well.

[@karenrivera1369]

You should find Ren's "Patience" video.... his sense of resilience and positivity really comes through

[@rebeccaburnell9319]

This. Look for "Ren Gill Patience" if you want to see him perform it while being interviewed for the Imperfection Project film, or there's the official recording of it.

[@dianeemanuel8541]

Ren knows talent. He turned me on to Little Simz and I just saw her in concert in Atlanta- SPECTACULAR❤

[@derekcartner4826]

Did live shows solo and busking with The Big Push, not done shows recently due to his treatment in Canada at the moment, he said he would like to get back to the live shows.

[@kpodonnell7924]

Time for you to check out his collaborations with Sam Tompkins. Blind Eyed (MC live session or angry car park attendant) or the busking performance of Earned It/Man’s World/Falling. Sam is incredible.

[@thehangingparsiple5692]

The majority of his songs were written while he was very sick (before Hi Ren). Because he was confined a lot to his bed his love of creating music became his form of release, his way of documenting his feelings. Anyway...fantastic reaction sir. Love that you 'feel' music and speak so honestly. You could be described as passionate, but I'd say wild, lol. Now let's get to that sweaty ass festival...❤

[@lisac243]

Best “Humble” reaction !

[@ClearTheRubble7]

This is one of my favorites by Ren/The Big Push, but Ocean is rising up as another favorite, the more I listen to it. I actually like his "dark" songs as much as his inspirational ones, because I don't see the dark ones as depressing, but more cathartic, helping me release some of my own dark emotions and thoughts. I say that as someone who went through a lifetime of shit, starting when I was kid. My middle name was depression, which I was diagnosed and hospitalized for. Even though I've been on the upswing (out of depression) for the last decade or so, I still have to watch my thoughts and beliefs. Still have to face some leftover demons from time to time, too. Discovering Ren when I did seemed almost like divine timing in this process.

[@ClearTheRubble7]

I should've said "favorites by Ren/The Big Push and Eden Nash," because I think she deserves a place up there with Ren in the world of viral videos and popularity.

[@rebeccaburnell9319]

Yep, agree with all of this.

[@troytucker3467]

[@loneyb11]

Preach brother

[@Xian42]

This is my favorite Ren song, for many of the reasons you mentioned. Power is second for similar reasons. The S word song isn't him giving up, I don't think. He mentions it was never the right time. Then with the ode to Joe he added at the end, he shows the utter horror and pain of leaving someone you love behind and making them go through hell. Honestly, I think he's trying to say that S is never the answer, even on your worst days, even when you can't make friends with the pain or find your power.

[@williamfulcher314]

to be fair, ren wasnt sulking in the su!cide song. it wasnt 'ah im depressed, woe is me.' he lost his best friend, it weighs on him, and he chose to share it with us. if i had rens talent, you best believe that id do the same for the ones ive lost. to me, it seems to immortalize them.

[@ShermTheGerm17]

With all his health problems he said he would love to tour but he can’t and doesn’t want to half ass a show it’s sad but hopefully he gets better and is able to preform

[@CleverPolarBear]

To what you said in the beginning of the video, I read a quote that said once; You can tell anyone the truth about anything, so as long as you make them laugh while your doing it.

[@jamesoloughlin536]

Context is King - he doesn’t preach an easy way out he talks about the pain of people leaving and taking the easy way out. He lost his best friend to the s word and it effected him profoundly. No one whoever truely listened to his lyrics would say he’s a proponent of insert s word -in fact the complete opposite.
