Ren IS music!!!! I could do this all day! Thank you Ren!

[@BlackPegasusRaps]

The GOAT IS BACK!!!

[@CLad-nc1ox]

ride that sonic high boi !

[@tiborkadar9918]

Ren reminds me of Prince here. His falsetto, his girls, his smiles, his orchestration, his confidence.

[@redzwestisbest]

hell yah...its like if Prince had done this back on 74 retake.. Message in a Bottle is all Ren though :)

[@OlleStahlberg]

Agree. Hard to compare, but Ren IS music. Like Prince. Multiple instruments and styles. Very different from each other but both genious. 🚀✨

[@redzwestisbest]

[@rakuinn5607]

What's so cool about these is it brings old songs to newer generations of people. How many people will find The Police or Jungle because of Ren? Man, what an artist

[@rakuinn5607]

Note that Jungle is not an old group, I think it was a song they did in '22 or '23. But yeah

[@mindbomb2000]

So many people get angry when one of their favourite songs gets covered. My opinion is exactly like yours. I mean, the original doesn't disappear when it's covered and if you like it better, just listen to that one. Look what happened with Tracy Chapman and Fast Car. The sales of not only that song, but others went way up. And yes, Ren is amazing.

[@MissMeKate]

I love this. He mashed up two popular songs by completely different kinds of artists from eras 40 years apart and then rapped in the middle. It's beautiful and soulful but also fun and chilled. This is where his broad love of all kinds of music really shines.

[@ricksurratt9034]

Fire

[@thehangingparsiple5692]

Spot on. Well said 🔥

[@DonniW]

The most Talented Artist since PRINCE . REN and these two beautiful back up singers sound like absolute HEAVEN! Spectacular REN ! Thank You😊

[@TheDougMan]

I was thinking of Prince too!

[@DonniW]

I know right this guy is fire!🔥

[@seagull01-cp8pb]

The harmonies are definitely to die for. I hope he does more work with these people.💕👍🦇

[@digdougist]

Freddy for me

[@mrdarengilbert3907]

Agree 100%

[@davidjames3080]

The two girls are Brighton artists and are great singers in their own right. Scarlett Fae has an Amy Winehouse cover on her YT channel that is amazing. There's apparently no end to the talent in Brighton! Not sure where Kai, the guitarist, is from, but he's dope. Ren said (in his YT chat) that he's not allowed on any other tracks because he outshone everybody!

[@gobkin123]

It's the glasses. Okay, and the skill and the groove. But the look - *chef's kiss*.

[@mldkenny]

Great info thanks

[@b.2775]

Found Kai being a Brighton Musician as well ...

[@Flatmat]

Kai is a rad surfer from Newquay, now Brighton based. Go Kai!

[@MissMeKate]

He said he's got collabs with Prof, Chris Webby, Ocean Wisdom, Eden Nash, and Chinchilla to come, and in talks with a few others. Plus a Nas retake. So even before we get to the timeless/rock album he has so much else up his sleeve.

[@rexrogers1859]

Thank you for the info!! 😊

[@MissMeKate]

@@rexrogers1859 He was chatty in the livestream for this one so if you watch the video with the chat replay on you can see the other artists he mentioned. The Nas retake might be the video that is coming in 2 weeks.

[@WhiteBoyDay]

And Demos 3 on the horizon

[@12Beastn]

Prof?!? That’s going to be awesome

[@MissMeKate]

@@12Beastn Yep! Prof talked about sending Ren a track on a livestream and then in the première chat Ren said he just hasn't had time to do anything with it yet but will be. So it's on the cards!

[@KevL_262]

The rap lyrics comes from Ren 😊 The original Back on 74 is from a group called jungle

[@DavidWalker-sh1dq]

And they are awesome

[@davidjames3080]

Yep, only released last summer, but was massive on TikTok, mainly due to the one shot dance video that has accumulated over a billion TikTok views since its release.

[@thehangingparsiple5692]

​@@davidjames3080oooo, I'll go take a look ✌️

[@craigday7705]

And the original is nothing like the retake!

[@NilZed1]

And he mentions them in the rap section

[@michaelphipps8647]

Our Lyrical Miracle never ceases to amaze me!!!

[@stephaniewilson1153]

Exactly!

[@waneemo9067]

Love it!

[@Faith-il2wx]

Your facial reactions told their own story. It was heaven❤

[@CindyBaucom-sb1hd]

Those ladies are fire!!! And here we are with another surprise sound from Ren.

[@stoneoutdooradventures2286]

The Guy can sing anything and the fact he's got two gorgeous girls with those silky old style backing vocals.. crazy and then into the rap then message in a bottle along the same flow.. excellent

[@joeuncoolio]

The respect that Ren has for all forms of music is incredible. Most artists stay in one arena. Not Ren. He is a gift.

[@iansturgess6436]

Ren is the GOAT of this age, and seeing Black Pegasus react to ren the way he does, shows genius reacting to genius

[@joepss7946]

I feel you're spot on at the end man. You just know he's being recognized by his peers and predecessors. You can't hate on Ren. He's Curtis Mayfield to R.A.T.M. , Jeff Buckley to Roni Size .. he's basicly weaving my whole music catalogues together, and I applaud it heartedly 🤟🏻🇳🇱💜

[@eryksun]

7:41 "for now that's all, back to 1974" is an interesting take. The 74 in "Back on 74" meant something like 74th street or 74th avenue, or anywhere else you're nostalgic for back in the day. Now it's nostalgia for 1974.

[@ChrisLawton66]

Nailed it. I hear so much Curtis Mayfield in this slowed down version of the original "Back On 74".

[@Threadbow]

Its a tune look it up x

[@majboomer1285]

When I heard Ren the first time with Hi Ren, I heard the Sting influence in that. Awesome vid!

[@ricksurratt9034]

BP I’ve told my kids for years and anybody else that will listen. Music is music. You don’t have to put it in box Ren is unbelievably talented and thank you for all the support that you’ve given him that’s why I am a member BP rocking in the free world.

[@elizabethpmoore4817]

He did the sa.e thing with i shot the sheriff. He WAS Bob Marley. He's just incredible

[@Emilie-one]

How much groove and soul does this have??? It is FIRE!🔥 REN’s voice is amazing! and message in a bottle is soo good. His voice fits that song like a glove❤❤

[@mindbomb2000]

"Why does this sound like a piece of Heaven?" You could not have described my feeling while listening to this song any better.

[@shirleygarcia8092]

Dude! You HAVE to listen to the original Back on 74 by Jungle! The video is amazing!! Jungle is an awesome group! I'm so glad he did this retake!!! It's so fire!!!! 💥💜 It's just genius how we layers both tracks together and then sprinkles in his new stuff! Absolute genius!!!

[@Cosmo-Kramer]

Ren's version blows it away.

[@shirleygarcia8092]

@@Cosmo-Kramer They are both totally different and both are absolute fire. IMO

[@Cosmo-Kramer]

@@shirleygarcia8092 Take the dancing away and the song itself is not special. Ren and his backup vocalists made it special.

[@chrisbateman5358]

First time ever exposed to Ren.... I like it! A bit jazz, a bit R&B, some funk & soul mixed in, stir it around and add a little rap and a really hot bass and you got this. I am in full agreement with your analysis on the influences from past music & timeless classics. Now I know what all the hype is about. Thank you for bringing this. This was great!

[@seagull01-cp8pb]

OMG your first Ren. Be prepared he is VERY diverse. Enjoy💕👍🦇

[@jcornman24]

Oooh boi somebody is in for a ride, Losing it, has been my favorite recently

[@user-um5cp2cs5j]

Lol you have no idea how deep the rabbit hole goes, go and play 5 random songs off rens channel and none will sound the same, have fun ❤

[@staceyshaffer180]

Oh you have no idea what your in for!

[@lorihutcheon5363]

What a freaking vibe😱 I haven’t been this hyped since “Hi Ren” Seriously mind blowing🤯 Talent on steroids👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@ashbii7632]

This song is on repeat for me for sure! It's my birthday weekend coming up and this song is gonna be playing ALL weekend. Great reaction BP.

[@joepineapples1]

Took me back to watching Starsky and Hutch in the '70s and then listening to the police in the 80's, Ren is always full of surprises.

[@rudyb.]

I felt like 5 decades all melted inside me today. This generation must embrace this young man…Ren.

[@alicekoppenol-pitti6257]

Great reaction. The mashup is reminiscent of Ren's time as a street artist singing " I shut the Sheriff" The lovely ladies vocals remind me a lot of the backing vocals on Roots Rock Reggae by Bob Marly. Very smooth. I'd invite you to go and have a listen to Back on 74 by Jungle either live on the Brits Award or the music video which is awesome.

[@hoosiernationsindiana2085]

Looks like I'll be binge watching Ren now!! Thank you for the introduction. Just found your reaction to Jeff Healey headed off to watch that. ☮♥🙏

[@hoosiernationsindiana2085]

Wow did the Jeff Healey reaction bring back memories. Seen him at a locals hidden bar early in his career. Needless to say the bar was lit that night and Mr Healey partied with us after his set. Not to mention your reaction was priceless. Hope you get a chance to watch his version of Angel Eyes, Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra also have versions. He also covered George Harrison's While My Guitar Gentle Weeps, but the best cover for this song was by Tom Petty, Steve Winwood, Jeff Lynne, Prince and Dhani Harrison (George's son). Again thank you for the memories!!!

[@SunaGirl55]

I love when you react to Ren. Actually, I love how genuine and supportive you are of him. Your enthusiasm really shines and you really makes me want to check out your music as well. Keep on being you and keep on creating great content not just with your reactions, but your music as well.

[@annfarmer9704]

you nailed it BP! your face said it all! im kinda curious where this was filmed. the aret on the walls is phenomenal. love the lady sitting on the upside down french champagne glass. the art is masterclass as is Ren. as always a beautiful RENdition. this song would have to be enjoyed vinyl. digital would not be the final feel to this song. you can almost feel the needle set down as the song starts. Ren is magic. super sonic. he instills frequently into his fequencies. invokes replay from retake..... hell, that even made me want some cherry wine... ♥️🎶🙏🎶♥️

This was outstanding! Ren is onto something big! His vision for music is huge and we are the lucky recipients! Thank you BP❤

[@stephaniegeer1691]

YESSSS!!!!this is the BEST retake\cover I've EVER heard!!! Only our Ren can blend these together so seamlessly and so seemingly effortlessly to create his OWN flavor and spin on some classics with his own twist in the middle to bridge the 2 songs together....his dedication and passion for music is inspiring and honestly refreshing in these times that's much needed...like an oasis in a dessert. He is PRICELESS,and TIMELESS.Love Ren,loved your reaction,and love your enthusiasm for music!thanks🎶🔥✌

[@user-fu3cf9vp4w]

Ren was amazing as always ❤❤❤❤ beaning looking forward to your reaction to this ❤

[@dancerbird76]

A fellow Renegade introduced me to Jungle who did Back on 74 a couple of months ago……love this retake……soulful vibes…..big up to Sylvia, Scarlett and Kai for such a great performance. I am so enjoying watching you reactors taking it all in 💜🔥as mesmerised as we all are.

[@beverlywest7627]

I graduated in '73, and this was the style that was fire then, Ren does it so good now!

[@Shiroar]

This was another brilliant ReNtake. Just Ren doing Ren things. He has music in his soul and pours so much soul into everything he does 🐰🕳️

[@girldownunder9043]

I did not want that to end. Omfg. I need more Message in a bottle. This just shot up to one of my absolute favourites holy crap ❤❤❤ Thanks BP for another great reaction you're the best 👌

[@donningarmour2873]

RenMakesMusic is a great name for him as he cannot be defined any particular genre. He seems to be able to do anything whilst simultaneously imparting his own uniqueness into the songs. Folk, reggae, rock, ballads, EDM, rap, old-school hip-hop, etc. I'm so happy that the industrys choke hold, and complete dictatorial power over what people get to listen to has all but vanished. Imagine how many talented people like Ren are out there right now doing their thing. I finally have new music to look forward to again.

[@Av3rageD4D]

Ren’s renditions will be a timeless classic when all is said and done. That was such a vibe…. It’s just chill and listen with your soul music! Much love BP, hope you and the family are well. Have a great day!

[@nigelhollewell4540]

Unbelievable!! 😮 Recognised Rens sting influence early on....but this was some kind of fantastic Motown and police mash-up. Great reaction by the way keep it coming!! 🙂

[@waneemo9067]

Ren takes the essence of any genre and era, brings in amazing collabs, mixes it up, adds his twist, and magic happens every time.

[@Musiklife.9049]

I mean c’mon…I’ve listened to this a few times now since this morning. 😢Just wanna cry all of a sudden, REN, WHAT A F…G ARTIST! Hope this lad gets as well as they can get him, he deserves to live a pain free life or at least as close to. Actually that’s probably not realistic for anyone. Thanks BP 😊😂 I get you.

[@gcarap]

This was a mashup, Back on 74 was a song by Jungle about 1974, Ren's rap referenced events in '74, and that was the year the Police released Message In a Bottle.

[@kimetherington2252]

Absolutely fabulous! Ren smoked it, and then it caught fire! He made it his own, no doubt.✌️☝️👌 👏👏 👏 👏👏 👏

Ohhhhhh liquid silk, wrapping itself around your soul like chocolate. Sublime !!!!

[@flashlight12316]

Thanks for being one of the only reactors who went and checked out Back on 74 by Jungle! I think they just their first BRIT award for the song. And I loved that you checked out The Police as well. It's so nice when reactors can really appreciate the way that the songs are so artfully stitched together. Also, I think that it's great that you are so open to hearing other kinds of music! Really like your reactions.

[@davemannn]

You're the first reactor I ran into on my Ren journey about a year ago...and still so nice to see almost my exact reaction every time...

[@def_not_dan]

I sent this to a friend who immediately sent me the original Jungle version of Back on 74 because I didn't know it. This cover is so good. This whole song is such a compliment to the originals.

Thank you BP. I'm also in Denver so hope to run into you at one of your events sometime!! Thank you, we all LOVE REN! ♥

Still pissed at Berry Gordy moving Motown to California. I'm almost 70 and love your channel and want to Thank you for introducing me to Ren. Keep the amazing talent coming!!!!!

[@supasoulproductions]

Ren is next level, no doubt. I love that he is somehow able to be absolutely fresh and wonderfully retro at the same time. Just killer. You might want to check out a band called The Main Squeeze, especially their classic rock covers. They do killer live one takes. Also a group called Snarky Puppy, whose musical creativity is off the chain. Also masters of the live one take.

[@mstewart109]

Snarky Puppy is instrumental. But so damn amazing talent!! I am a hooked fan of theirs...
