West Coast RAPPER First time EVER hearing REN! Hi Ren, Busking & The Hunger

[@LeeannG]

That’s it, I think I need “so you’ve never heard of Ren?” Merch 🍕🍕

[@LeeannG]

My guys really having an existential crisis at the beginning here 😂

[@LeeannG]

Ohhh can you put Ren and chinchillas busking in the rotation? They do a mix of drake/Beyoncé that’s so good, Ren got the looper for his guitar and everything 😊

[@zachhenderson7982]

Is buy that

[@pabloesco2007]

Or "Do you know Busking ?" 😂 Love all the reactions of his friends

[@some_girl_on_YT]

And on the backside of the shirt: I didn't expect that. 😂

[@adamreed6336]

Has anyone ever pointed out that in the beginning when he's yodeling that represents his light side and when the lights flicker and the evil voice appears that's his dark side trying to take over so at the end when he's yodeling and the lights are flickering at the same time it's the light and dark side working in unison. Basically he starts out in the light and then the darkness creeps in but by the end they're working together. At least that's my interpretation.

[@UnknownPerson-rr5nz]

In the end when the light flickers, I've always thought of the yotaling as the hope and his aggressive guitar playing as the evil/chaotic side❤. So similar thoughts. I think there was one or two, but I've seen so many reactions that I can't remember who.

[@steveclarke2585]

I didn't see what your saying.,!

[@E-plunksna]

1st of all it's not "yodeling" 😄

[@Mancjorot]

I thought similar in the end he's given in and accepted both the yin and yang, which is why as Ren says he's able to move freely.

[@duballer71]

Interesting perspective. Something that struck me that I haven't seen in any of the reaction videos I've seen is that I also think there is beauty in his discordant chaotic side. Which I think ties into the Triumph of learning to live with both the light and the dark

[@mama_nez]

BP is low-key becoming a music reaction fan himself 😂 He's here with the rest of us waiting to see the look on homie's face at all the same moments of the songs!😂 THAT DOPAMINE RUSH IS WHY ALL OF US ARE HERE, LET'S BE HONEST 🤣

[@supertuscans9512]

👏👏👏

[@zachhenderson7982]

That's my favorite part. Watching BP smile when he knows something is about to happen is awesome.

[@colinthompson2462]

True True !!

[@scurvyelephant333]

Gotta hit that dope! We're a bunch of a fiends. Lol

[@R2Carney]

Absolutely! Same reason I watch so many Harry Mack reactions. That dopamine rush when someone else experiences that same level of excitement is totally addictive!

[@hopelaurel2207]

I get a kick out of seeing how much joy Black Pegasus gets out of watching his friends reactions. 😊

[@CosmicGoatt]

You have to put him in front of mans world, humble, power, genesis!!!

[@KCVRK]

Definitely “Humble” considering he’s a Niners fan. They still talking smack about the eagles for wrecking them lol. Jus playin homeboy 😉😂

[@doughill2616]

Losing it

[@davidkelk1220]

Don’t forget tale of Jenny n screech

[@lunadyana3330]

@@KCVRK wee

[@MrPeelcam]

Genesis is a fucking banger

[@NicksGotBeef]

Yeah Brighton is the home of busking. I love my city. Although best busker I’ve seen live was in london at Waterloo. She had me in tears. I tried to give her money and she refused to accept it as she says my emotional response was better payment than any money I could have given her. Amazing.

[@michellepetrillo2235]

I absolutely LOVE how you are showing Ren to so many different people! I will tune every single time!! Please keep it up!!

[@jimidave6281]

I love that BP mouths the words and bits of the instrumentation to himself :D

[@stormmontpelier8681]

Being a Full Blown Ren Reaction JUNKIE, discovering your channel has been the greatest ever!

[@RavenZahadoom]

He really should see the Tale of Jenny and Screech seen as he really picked up on the performance element. I feel like that is what impressed him the most and the tale trilogy would be a perfect example.

[@gears3305]

So you never heard of Ren before? Gets me every time! 😂

[@skater61991]

Black P should make a TShirt with that on it!

[@fredgrippa4782]

I like how everyone you have on is supportive of artists like Ren , Sam T, Chinchilla and others. Giving props and acknowledgement instead of ripping on people. I know from watching your show that's not what you do but their are artists that don't like to say someone is "more talented or doing great in their careers " even if in other areas. If that makes sense.... Keep up the great work, love your stuff also! Respect!

[@zed4225]

#JudgeJ...........your face when Ren do 'Out in the streets they call it murderrrrrrrrrr'. Man it's fire watching peops react to Ren🔥❤

[@evenflow1981]

Over here in the UK there was a massive influence of Caribbean music that started even before the Windrush generation. It spawned ska and numerous other musical offshoots and influenced incredible 'white' bands like The Clash, The Police, etc. UB40 were huge in the UK at one point too. London , especially, has a huge very integrated Afro-Caribbean community and has for some time which really shows in working class culture ( from the days of rude boys , punks and skins up to the present day) over here. Perfect example of the Melting Pot being an awesome thing.

[@markgoldspink5109]

Totally, you couldn't have ska, Northern Soul, Two-tone, Rocksteady etc etc.

[@TheBeardsShow]

Well said. Alot of people forget the UK has produced some of the best movements and sub cultures in the world.

[@Lotus.Lottie]

Exactly what I wanted to say, but worded better 😅the culture here, especially the cities, how wonderfully blended it is makes way for beautiful art and music and happy people

[@griffinanderson4163]

The melting pot is not an isolated phenomenon. The melting pot is universal. The melting pot are metaphors being more than a total sum of their parts. “Everything under the sun has been done.” I used to rail against that notion until I came to realization everything that can and will ever happen is happening in this very moment… we are our own worst enemies. Imho it’s all about gratitude and forgiveness

[@cassandrachambliss3357]

I know, Americans aren’t hearing the UK musical heritage in REN’s music

[@chrislevine4569]

I loved the honesty, how Juz J wasn't reaĺly feeling it in the beginning. Watching you guys laughing about the busking made me cry laughing too. You need to show J The Big Push and I Shot the Sheriff.

[@Dazkil]

Great genuine guest as usual BP

[@jeremycasper8686]

Why does hi ren make me tear up more and more with each listen? Ren is absolutely a genius. Talent is off the charts and I love it. I want more and more music from this man! Truly unique!

[@coolmike1538]

Facts

[@bobbistevens5648]

Great reaction! Just wanted to mention, my daughter lived in a small town in Central Florida and every year they have a busking festival. It's amazing and draws all different kinds of performers. I make sure to bring money so we can support these talented people. I wish this trend could spread all over the country. There are so many talented people out there who never really get the chance to be seen or heard.

[@rossco6276]

Got a feeling this man would love the Big Push - Shot the Sheriff cover, should've thrown that one his way.

[@GW-kf1be]

❤❤❤Bring him back, and both of you react to stuff you haven’t heard from Ren yet. Thank you.

[@jimmyhughes5392]

i love the way BP gestures to the camera with his eyes at the reaction of his guests, guy has me in stitches

[@Hazzmattikk]

First comment! I love when you drop the "do you know what busking is" "sounds sexual" Like ayyye girl you gonna make me BUSK I love the variety of people you get to react to Ren. I thought it was refreshing in a way to see Juz J at first to be like i dont know if im feeling it, only to come around at the end and express how artistic it was and how he could relate to it as well. It speaks to people of all backgrounds and like you said P, it really is a masterpiece of our current era. The rollercoaster of Juz J seeing his range was priceless haha. Great reaction from you both! Favorite reaction channel by far and I cant wait for the interview!

[@gypsysouldier]

When dude walks behind Ren and Sam busking, more so Ren, he just looks like he is trying to squeeze by Ren's crazy ass. Ren starts to get super into his gutair jamming, and dude just wants to protect his junk. How hasn't a guy not said this? 😂😂😂🖤🖤🖤

[@survivalrush]

Def bring your homie back, I love his honesty, on how he was feeling it. Would be dope to see him react to more 'Busking' .. and other Ren stuff .. 👍

[@TheSlash666jl]

Yeah bring him back he's great! Every reactor u had so far finds or sees something new. Awesome!

[@Lunabracco]

Black Pegasus I absolutely love watching your face watching watching your guests reactions to REN ! 😂❤

[@helenajrgensen3157]

Of course he has to come back. There are lots of goodies to show him from Ren 😊❤

[@kristinekarlson113]

I would love to see his reaction to “Ocean,” “Chalk Outlines,” “Genesis,” or “Blind Eyed” (official music video). And it goes without saying that I want him to experience the I shot the Sheriff medley…

[@tracysmith2130]

This is a perfect sample to introduce Ren to someone new. Great reaction guys!

[@Av3rageD4D]

The way you introduce people to “busking” 🤣. I love it! Thanks for sharing another Ren introduction! Can’t wait for the interview!!! Have a great day.

[@operatoncreation6396]

i've been watching reactions and you learn a lot from eyes, i break at "loosen the noose on the rope".. not sure how to word it but that part, then after.. the roar... growing past that.. music is what we do as humans. wage war with life, music is our weapon

[@BrandonWestfall]

"He reminds me like...people who I think highly of in every genre." Yup, that's Ren for you. Then you hear him in interviews and realize he's just an incredible person as well.

[@lucygonzalez-zo5nz]

Thank you, great reaction. Please react to Ren and Sam improvising around Stevie Wonder. I think you will love it!

[@markbaker5599]

I love this reaction video. Dude on the right has clearly heard the song before and loves it. We've all been there: playing a new song song to our mates. Looking for the reactions at the best moments. This video was almost wholesome. Like a dad trying to introduce his kid to new music that he loves

[@NilZed1]

This guy has a whole gig introducing his friends to Ren, check out his playlists.

[@stephentrevis2514]

Yeah check it out. He does it often to give their reactions

[@BrandonWestfall]

"My music isn't commercial like that." That line makes me chuckle because a lot of his music isn't considered commercial but I could totally see Humble, Ocean, or Losing It played on the radio.

[@dlm4ever975]

Really enjoyed this reaction ya guys laughing jus having fun 😂.. I also enjoyed seeing juz honest opinion. Going from unsure only to come around at the end and be like maaaan he mutitalented 🤟 welcome to the ren-aissance Juz 🖤🔥

[@nenasadie]

I love these reactions, particularly where the whole range is shown. Congrats on the 100k

[@ThisIsTheWayOfTheWalk]

This is my new favorite reaction you two vibe. This was straight fun to watch now I to must go Busking on some peeps. 😂lmfao good shoot.

[@amavius941]

Awesome reaction dude, you're gonna get to the stage when you are grabbing strangers in from the street to react to the Ren rollercoaster, keep up the fab work my man, love from the Uk

[@AK00777]

Was waitin 28:18 😂 Not disappointed! I'll say it again and again You have the Coolest Friends! Hell yeah, have him back. Loved this ❤❤

[@jacks9624]

This is so much fun, BP! Thanks for these 1st timers, dude, just love it!

[@GoodGirlGone]

Great and fun reaction!! Thank you!!

[@glennhaynes4380]

Bro I loved this reaction! Had me laughing along with you guys. You definitely gotta get him back 😂

[@robertlenzo3303]

This felt super honest and loved it

[@kittymccarthy2111]

Yes. Bring him back. Really enjoyed this!

[@PazEdenMoor]

You guys laughing at busking is the same for us laughing at your fanny packs hahahaha :D Top work guys, I look forward to watching you enjoy the Ren rabbit hole again.

[@seagull01-cp8pb]

Great addition to the Reniverse. Just J seems was a very nice and thoughtful commentator with some great insights. My favourite of your guests so far👍🦇

[@palliard]

Reniverse, stealing that.

[@Leks3777]

Keep bringing him back! Bring everyone back for Ren experience! 🎉🎉🎉

[@justjenbo]

These are some of my fave reactions. Love the aha moments of all the newbies! Keep em coming, BP!!

[@wainsws57]

Another brilliant reaction BP💪, every guest you do this with goes through the Ren rollercoaster as you say, -what is this -this is cool -omg this is brilliant - never heard/seen this ever Thanks again BP for reactions and the freestyles, keep it sir👍👍

[@francesmarinapatarangawhik4702]

Hi Black Pegasus, Judge J, enjoyed the reaction, laughed alot, interesting obs, BUSKING jabs...and Rens incredible talent. How high is the fence? Awesome reaction🤩👊👍☝️🖼☝️🎇🤓

[@mrsainsburys1]

Awesome reaction thank you 👍🙏❤️🐊🦉

[@gypsysouldier]

I think Juz J's reaction to Hi Ren is how a lot of people react while processing Ren. Although I got the concept of Hi Ren pretty quickly and knew I was watching something special, this is what my reaction to Money Game Part 1 would have looked like. Legit. It took a little bit for my brain to comprehend what he was trying to convey in BOTH the lyrics and the video all at once. I'll admit MG1 made me feel uncomfortable, but I say that more as a compliment because the video was done with that intended purpose. I just wasn't ready for it!! MG1 is one of my favorites now.... I'm guessing when Juz J compared it to a horror film that Ren would have taken that as a compliment. 😊

[@terrieb13]

That was so much fun! Please bring him back! I hope he continues on the Ren journey. ☮️❤️😎

[@MsCheesemonster13]

Seconded. Please bring him back for more Ren 👍 🇬🇧

[@Microplancakes]

Another RENegade joins our masses!!! Whoooo!!! ❤

[@Rob-bt3ev]

Loving all these first time reactions - this was great seeing his journey and appreciation building to the end

[@gears3305]

You still need to react (to a lot of stuff) to Ren and Sam blind eye mc session or the parking lot version lol

[@LeeannG]

I think doing it in two parts might be best, original follow immediately by parking lot. It’s helpful to have the full song in your head first

[@serendipitish]

Agreed, with both of you!

[@evenflow1981]

Lord knows how many times I've watch you introduce folks to Ren and yet it never gets old! You caught Ren's 16 bar challenge yet?

[@JayKughan]

"Malaysian" Jay here.. great video! Love homie's reaction to Ren.. love his perspective on the videos. I mean, what else can I say.. you should keep it rollin' baby! I honestly think you should "keep introducing" people to Ren. There are still too many people out there who STILL don't know Ren.

[@zed4225]

Come on back brother #JudgeJ please, love your reaction. Can't wait to see more 🇦🇺 #BP can you do a link to the guest reactor, or at leas give us his name in writing so we don't F it up in comments😂I'm sure you said JudgeJ, but could be JuzJ lol

[@antonymification212]

This is my favourite thing EVER... Dude, your face when you got Hunger. All the love, takes a big man to be so open.

[@hisshissboom]

I'd love to see you showing more of your guests Chalk Outlines. His singing is different again there - and his and Chinchilla's blended voices and chemistry give me chills.

[@jimkhana007]

Deffo… 👌

[@socialops]

Agree, but maybe How To Be Me instead. I'd like to see Losing It subbed in occasionally, though I bet BP chooses The Hunger to satisfy rapping criteria *and* runtime constraints.

[@jacquelinegore3316]

I can’t stop singing it.. just beautiful

[@curmudgeon1933]

29:40. Brighton is a seaside resort town, so many of the people are on holiday. It also has a big creative population, large number of students, and a sympathetic local government who encourage street performances, as an attraction for the tourists and local residents.

[@roncav8]

Yes, bring him back to blow his mind😲😱 some more!!

[@NicksGotBeef]

I’d love to see his reaction of Illest of our Time. To be the music production is next next level on that one. The little fillers just make it glisten.

[@firbolg]

I'm a metalhead and Ren has been making me go back to my teens when I heard a lot of rap, reggae and other genres and widen up my current musical tastes beyond metal and classical music.

[@MissMeKate]

I love the way people start our looking confused, not sure if they will like it, then by the end they're itching to hear more. You're the roller to Ren's coaster on these journeys and we're here for it every time!

[@jimholmes692]

Great episode! I'd like to see his reaction to the Tales of Jenny and Screech and the bus version of Animal Flow

[@CorgiDaddy2]

The reactions I love the most are when your guests are so skeptical when they come in and huge fans when they go out.

[@DaBigJackowski]

Enjoyed this reaction much more than other recent visitors. Very genuine reaction with an arc to the appreciation. Great insight

[@johnnymayweather7476]

Niners gang!! Congratulations to your mile high Denver Nuggets BP!!

[@annfarmer9704]

hahahaha! I thought the light would go out and when it came back on there would be a demon there!!! he had me cracking up! the laughing over the word busking, was so funny! loved this! ♥️🎶🙏🎶♥️

[@Snarky_Tart]

Yes! Please bring Judge J back for more Ren. His reaction was genuine, his comments were insightful (kudos for nailing KRS-One), and I especially liked his humility. I've seen one too many so-called rappers react to Ren (not on your channel) with their arrogant judgey faces on, like "Yeah, I'm better than Ren", calling out the few times where they understand what he's saying, "Frankenstein!" "Trainers!", as though that proves their expertise, when they genuinely have no idea what Ren is talking about. Ren says "Fibonacci sequence", and they nod like they know exactly what that means. First, give up the arrogance and you might actually be able to learn something from Ren. Judge J was so humble, and that impressed me a lot! More, please.

[@ewertabrahamsson4278]

Sitting in a bar and watching this by myself and a Random 60 year old comes up to me and says "I love that reactor". I said yes, he is dope. Then he ask me if I heard about Ren and I got goosebumps! Life is going in the right direction I guess.

[@praja108]

Awesome reaction with the brother. Really enjoyed watching both yáll. Busking rocks, lol.

[@danielmeola3651]

Ren can make you dance, think, entertain, cry, Hard crying, he raps, sings, make beats, produce, and play the guitar as the best, please dive in his music, you won't regret it

[@sabrinaevans8746]

I keep coming back to your channel because seeing all the reactions of Ren really entertains

[@vicreaves3077]

Im from Brighton and only discovered REN a couple of months back. Really made me laugh you guys reacting to “busking”. Never gave the word any thought before 😂

[@Willeby2]

Oooh!! Nice reaction, how would he react to the reggae vibe from road to zion, hip hop performance?! Love, love, love it!! I thought in the beginning he wouldn't get it.. but without doubt Ren pulled him in❤

[@mrpatrickhobot]

One thing i appreciate about so many of the guest reactors is that they often comment that what Ren is doing is inspiring them to work harder, to become more, to go back and dig deeper.

[@Silkytoaster]

Great reaction from your guest

[@jimkhana007]

Another great introduction to Ren and reaction. Loved Judge Js honesty too. Even when he wasn’t vibing with things he at least noticed and picked up on certain elements and appreciated the subtleties, and once he did absorb everything he totally got it. Hope to see him back with a Ren reaction and another freestyle (on one of your other videos) again. Again another congrats on your big 100k! Keep bossing Ma man…

[@texashookem22]

Maybe my favorite guess you’ve had on yet. Absolutely have to bring him back!

[@denisehaukkala9742]

Appreciate you introducing folks to this modern brilliant bard. And go World Champion Nuggets!

[@tharrison7832]

Great reaction... so great to watch you both laughing your heads off.

[@mrpratster]

[@goomymf]

Loved this reaction. Bring your boy back for more pls.

[@alanhall7091]

You both have good vibe together .. I was chuckling along with you ... Especially busking. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@QueenColeBleu]

So glad I watched another one of your reactions to Ren because I have never heard this cover of Walking On The Moon and I love it!!!!! Thanks for doing what ya do! ✌️💙🎵

[@NilZed1]

The Jamaican brother probably was waiting for the pitch to open up, and he decided they weren’t going to clear off anytime soon so he better walk along to see if another us open. I finally looked it up and it has its origins in a Spanish word: buscar which means to seek in terms of travelling around in search of something . Street performing was a way such a wanderer could earn some coin.

[@susanjoyce-yq2mg]

BP, I envy you your job. You have become a Ren apostle, spreading his message to the masses. Keep on.

[@raymondduncil5786]

Still loving these. Have enjoyed everything so far.

[@danitheuerkauf7095]

Great reaction vid! Great insight. Yes come back!

[@GobigredNEB]

I’ve watched reactions to this video more than I care to admit this is absolutely one of my favorites

[@dianeemanuel8541]

I don’t have your platform BP but I’m trying to follow in your footsteps- when I’m pumping gas - I’m talking Ren to the person on the other side of the Pune- in the store in talking to Ren- the drive through talking Ren- getting mail talking Ren to the high schoolers walking home. I do also ask for their favorite new song too. I’ve found a few new artist myself. Thanks for the inspiration ❤

[@KylieIsOverIt]

Gotta put him in front of the Money Game videos, with that Motown feel plus his flow.
