That's one hell of a statement that throws so many awesome songs to the wayside so deliberately and unceremoniously...........And I can't argue against it.

[@davidm6329]

The reason Ren blew up is because of how authentic and relatable this video was for so many people. He portrays an internal battle that many of us fight every single day. That challenging, belittling voice is something most of us experience, and it can feel like it holds all the power. But Ren also portrayed the voice of hope, and that's what gets most of us through the day. I don't think I've ever seen another artist be that vulnerable, or tackle a subject in such a way as to meld my own experience with theirs. It hit me right at my core. This is beyond music. It's an experience.

Welcome to the gate to the Ren rabbit hole, enjoy the ride. Please dive deep, appreciate so many of his different genres of music/entertainment. Definitely make sure to also react to videos by his band, The Big Push, and his different collaborations. You will love the sights of him busking.

[@TravellingwithMother]

Mother loves his work with The Big Push - it's going on the list

[@dropbarracuda]

The confusion and difficulty finding words is typical after experiencing Ren. There are no criteria to qualify to listen to Ren's music, and you've checked off all the items you could ever need to become a Renegade: * you're open-minded, * you pay attention to whats happening in the music, * You've engaged the Renegades and elicited a dialog **BONUS** You have prior first-hand experience of Ren. Please share. We love that stuff, haha Was watching you young ladies through your Angelina discovery and path, so very happy to see you join in on this rabbit hole. The Renegades are very engaging, supportive, knowledgable, and always happy to help with any questions, insider information, and/or direction to follow the Ren rabbit hole. ❤❤

[@TravellingwithMother]

Thank you so much! We definitely will react to more Ren.

[@YorkshireRippler]

Ren is originally from North Wales...fairly close to the north of England...hence the slightly northern twang. He has Lyme disease which went undiagnosed for years causing his illness. He is currently living in Canada where he is receiving treatment. Tales of Jenny and Screech (13m version) is the next logical step....all his stuff is amazing.

He moved to Brighton remember.

Ren is past having lyme disease, that's finished. But having had it for 10 or more years,he is suffering from what's called Post Lyme disease, and has a collection of ailments containing MCAS, M.E cfs, and other autoimmunte conditions. He is still in treatment in Calgary, Canada.

Just seeing you for the first time. Been a Ren fan for 2 years now. Your mother is amazing and I have subscribed to watch you two. Her age that she jokes about is what gives her this understanding of Ren that the younger generations are delving into because of him. It's almost spiritual. Cannot wait to watch your new understanding of him.

You kinda have to know the background of Ren. He had limes disease and was not properly diagnosed for 10+ years. Since he wasn't properly treated he suffered from auto immunity and psychosis. He FINALLY got diagnose and in currently in Canada undergoing treatments for it. His work is nothing short of amazing....welcome to the rabbit hole that is Ren :)

Poetry and performance - and he did this in one take, no edits. You're going to be blown away by what he's doing these days. Out of the misery and suffering of his illness an awe inspiring talent has blossomed. Others (below) will tell you about what he's been through, and then I suggest you listen to "Sick Boi", which will offer you his perspective on the medical profession. He's currently in Canada, receiving stem cell treatment.

[@TravellingwithMother]

Always happy to hear from Ren's fans. Thank you and thank you for watching.

[@CreativePhotoWS]

this video is an amalgam of four different takes and some hand held camera work. He has some fabulous one takes, and some fabulous minimal cut takes. This is not one. The mic appears and disappears through the clip and his gown length changes between camera cuts. Doesn't diminish this work of art but it does take away from his actual one takes to be promoting this as one as people who can see it's not will start to doubt his actual one takes.

[@user-zu6ir6kj5g]

Needles s to say, I wasn't there - just passing on what I was told.@@CreativePhotoWS

[@4tr0phy]

@@CreativePhotoWS Ren himself states that all the shots for the video are from the same take, so I'm not sure where you got this info unless it's just you thinking a lapel mic disappearing into bunched fabric is concrete evidence.

[@CreativePhotoWS]

@@4tr0phy show me where he states that. Name the interview. I’ve watched every interview. And yes, sometimes the mic goes behind the gown. Other times it appears and disappears almost instantly. Then there’s the gown length variations early in the piece that go from above knee to below to above again. The. There’s the hand held close ups which cannot be shot in one take or the camera man would be in the shot. Keep believing what you will. I could care less. But you detract greatly from his actual one takes by declaring this to be one. I’m a 40+ year professional image maker. I train people to spot mistakes in their work.

[@phaedralewis285]

I was not as lucky as you as to be able to actually see Ren in person, but after seeing Hi Ren, I fell in love and watched everything of his. Although he is still in Canada getting treatments for Lyme disease, he did put out a Hip Hop / Rap album Sic Boi and did win #1 album in the UK. Just him and his Brighton friends who all flew to Canada to be with him. No radio play, no touring or promoting, just people on KZbin finding him and falling in love. It's such an amazing thing and I hope he continues to get the recognition he deserves. You should watch the moment he found out he was #1, your Mom would love it!

[@silversurfer8278]

Loved your reaction, ladies. My elder brother was a street busker for much of his life, with a period in folk singing, and then pop in the late 1960's before returning to busking [Don Partridge]. He spent his last years in Seaford and Peacehaven, close to Brighton, and often busked in Brighton, so when he died the corporation named a bus after him. So, like you, I have a special affinity for buskers and for Brighton. Ren is probably the most amazing, creative and theatrical musical artist I have ever heard or seen. I know that you will both enjoy your Ren journey!

[@OzzieMozzie777]

Just found your channel with this video, been watching reactions to the song all day. Was pleasantly surprised to hear that you saw this guy performing before he was well known. This reaction in particular is interesting to me because of how there are two generations reacting to something that my yet even younger generation has produced (the suffering caused by our circumstances that leads to the creation of art like this). The world has begun to change so quickly and all the different generations still living currently seem to struggle relating to each other. The way this message affects all these different generations is different in some ways and the same in others. Society changes at a furious pace, but simultaneously human nature has always been and always will be the same. The mum cracked me up a bit 😂. Some people when they get older and mature, lose their ability to just laugh and enjoy life. Clearly she is not afflicted by this problem lol. God bless you guys, well wishes from the US 🙏

[@sigally]

Luv you ladies! The Tales of Jenny and Screech (13 minute version has all 3 tales in the right order) is storytelling at its finest. He has recent great stuff you'd like Back on 74 /Message in a Bottle Retake and Fred Again Mashup. Both great.

[@NevynAtAll42]

Wow! Someone who knows him, who has seen him live on the streets. Awesome work, ladies. On the pausing videos, that is a way to avoid copyright strikes and such issues with reactions. Ren doesn't do that, but a lot of artists, or the rights holders for their music at least, will strike reactions to claim the revenue. Blurring the video on our screens is another way, things like that. Such methods are attempting to cover your own bottoms. Ren is truly amazing. I kind of wish I could have lived over there when he was active, just to experience him in such a raw state, but I'm on the other side of the planet in NZ. We have our own, New Brighton in my city. It's not the same, though. Keep being awesome, ladies.

[@PoliticallyPink]

We'd all give at least a few fingers to go back and see Ren and/or The Big Push busking in Brighton! Really cool to see a reaction from a couple who HAVE. SO envious! and happy for you that you saw it live. I'm sure you'd enjoy The Big Push's busking performance of "Watch Out." You want the one with Ren in red suspenders.

[@rebeccaburnell9319]

Something I've learned from reaction channels' comment sections for their Ren reactions: suspenders = garter belt over there! Folks from the UK say "look for the thumbnail with Ren in the red braces" to describe the videos from the Red Suspenders Ren busking performance... just in case it helps these ladies figure out what we're saying! (they may already know about the vocab thing, but... just in case!)

[@marcw6905]

Thank you for this wonderful reaction, both of you are absolutely delightful! You are coming at Ren with a fresh perspective, one that intrigues me: I see in his many busking videos all the passerby who stop to enjoy his beautiful music and yet, perhaps, are not aware of the myriad health issues that have plagued him and, in fact, inspired much of his music (latest album = Sick Boi). This is a very different perspective from the youtube audience such as myself who have learned about the health issues as soon as discovering Ren. I would love to hear, as you dive into his videos, whether your impression of him has changed since the busking days! BTW, I'm super envious that you got see him in those street performances!!

[@CalvinC404]

I love this reaction!! Almost all reactions to "Hi Ren" start with the words "I've never heard of Ren, but...". It was a lovely take to see Mother's reaction knowing that she knew Ren from his busking days, and that she already knew Ren is quite talented. And the facial expressions on Daughter as she experiences this video - I feel like I should have paid to watch them! I'm sure I won't be the first or last person to recommend you react to the Jenny & Screech trilogy next. If you do, do it in the order Jenny's tale -> Screech's tale -> Violet's tale, or better yet, use the 13 minute single video with all 3 that Ren put together. And although you both know that "talented" and "genius" only begin to describe Ren, I leave you with an almost spoiler that Mother will understand: Before watching Jenny & Screech, I figured Ren was a talented genius. Midway through the trilogy, Ren made it to highly imaginative talented genius. In the last scene of the trilogy, I immediately and unapologetically placed Ren in the same class as Rod Serling and Alfred Hitchcock. Absolutely a unique talent.

[@TravellingwithMother]

Thank you!! 🥰The Trilogy is definitely one of the top contenders, everyone is suggesting it so we might just have to react.... 😉

[@helenjarvis7755]

Ren is addictive, I have watched so much of him and his friends over the last amazing year I'm pretty sure I've seen Mum in the crowds of busking videos in Brighton Looking forward to seeing more Ren with you. He has been in treatment for over a year in Calgary Canada

[@brendamckinley3036]

If I could get the mother to say “sweetie darling” my life would be complete

[@BrilligandtheSlithyToves]

The majority of his work that I have had the brilliant luck to come across, is more like "performance art" than just music. This piece, for example, is lyrically, and musically engrossing, in and of itself, laced with similies, metaphors, double entendre, beautifully descriptive details, and sweeping melodic outbursts, but you take: the different camera angles used for the 2 battling parts of his psyche, the different tones of voice used for each (aggressive vs. passive), the different lighting cues for each (flashing vs. steady), and the vocal inflection used for each (anger vs. calm), and you get a sense of perspective from each of those that helps to move the narrative. It's like an rock operetta. It evokes emotion, introspection, empathy, sympathy, happiness, sorrow, and even a feeling of resolution. I LOVE this performance. He definitely deserves ALL the accolades he is currently garnering from the world.

It's so interesting to hear you mention Bob Marley at the end. There is a video of THE BIG PUSH (Ren's band that you mentioned) playing a medley of I Shot The Sheriff by Bob Marley and a song by Bob's son and some other stuff. I have some brain damage from an accident so please forgive me forgetting the proper title for a moment lol. If you search for... The Big Push - I shot the sheriff ... you will find the video. The one you should watch has Hip Hop at the end of the title, I think. It's an incredible video filmed on the streets of your lovely hometown, Brighton. Who knows? Maybe you were in the crowd that day. You will love it either way.

Thank you so much 😊

What a lovely duo you are, I very much enjoyed your reaction to this. Much of Ren's music will invite you out of your comfort zone to address & spark conversation about subjects that often get swept aside. Ren is changing the way we digest music. No one else is doing this. Exiting times for music. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing, this was great. I just found you today and I look forward to seeing you explore his ever mind blowing catalog. Enjoy the World of Ren where we all learn from each other

Loved this reaction ❤ please do more and more ren

[@crystalkeelin5806]

Loved this reaction! Please do more Ren... based on your other videos I think you guys would love his more recent duets with Chinchilla.

[@CrYou575]

You've got the Jenny and Screech trilogy (it's quite harrowung) and the Money Game trilogy to look forward too. Plus loads of other goodies. And you really have to watch his songs with Chinchilla as well 'Chalk Outlines and How To Be Me. There's another arc there. Glad you've got around to him. He's from North Wales originally. Don't worry the Renegades will get you both clued up with the latest.

His album debuted at #1 on the Brit charts.

I’ve watched a few people react to this song now. It’s interesting to see how different people react. Some smile, some weep, some just sit there and reflect. What’s apparent is that we all understand what he is saying inside.

Welcome to the RENegades! Ren will always surprise you. Pick your poison! EDM, Reggae, Heavy Metal, Rap, Pop. He loves to challenge himself. A raunchy pop song for the radio?(Uninvited) An acappella rap using stream of consciousness? (Loco). A song that will make you cry? (Suicide/For Joe) The rabbit hole is deep and diverse. Sometimes tearful and sometimes hysterical laughter. Enjoy your journey.
