Yooo man! Thankyou for reacting to my tune!! ahahahah ur right we got some funny looks from neighbours Appreciate u supporting my stuff!

[@ogNezzel]

So happy to have seen you and Sam both find your own routes and both got the recognition rightfully deserved!

[@chrisb2409]

I may be mistaken but is the whole concept of Animal Flow based on the George Orwell book "Animal Farm"?.. 🤔 absolute genius without a doubt anyway! 💙

[@crypttherapper]

Sorry guys I was never taught about Animal Farm by George Orwell, so I couldn't catch that reference. Thanks for pointing it out! It's dope that this actually was a one take! I'm a sucker for those.

[@rachaddle6581]

Reaction vids are getting more likes than Ren's actual music video due to the sooo many reaction channels reacting. Also: Pink Floyd I'm sure is Ren's influence for ANIMALS. 🔴Check out "Animals" album by Pink Floyd. You will appreciate Ren's context much more!!!🔴🔴💓💓

[@sketchtherapy1218]

The Rules on the wall are from "Animal Farm" by George Orwell it's an AntiCommunist book, where the leaders of the rebellion are shown to be hypocrites. The 2 pigs are Lenin the creator of Gulags & Stalin one of the most prolific butchers of history.

[@swyts]

1984 and Animal Farm are two must reads from George Orwell. I'm pretty sure they're free on Kindle these days.

[@Veeliscious]

@@rachaddle6581As much as I'm a Renaction addict, I always make sure I watch anything on Ren's channel first so he gets the views and likes (and obviously gets multiple repeated views as I always love what he puts out)

[@mlotis]

Ren sent this out yesterday to newsletter subscribers, in short, it was one take. ------------------ Filming Animal Flow. Let me set the scene. It’s a cold gloomy British February. A great start to any tale. I’d been sitting on this track Animal Flow for about a month, it has this tribal rolling drum sound, reminiscent of early Kanye production (you’re allowed to say his name again now he said sorry after watching 21 Jump Street) I’ve got this annoying problem where if I’ve created something challenging to create the next thing has to be even more challenging to pull off. We’d just finished filming a series of one take videos for the Sick Boi album, they were a bitch to film, because if anything goes wrong in a shot with only one continuous take all the way through, you have to start again. I love that challenge. It forces me into the moment, you have to be engaging for the entire piece. If a tiny thing goes wrong you have to start again. I sadistically really enjoy the frustration of the entire crew when we shout CUT and have to start the whole bloody thing again. Their little faces sinking into despair fills me with a little warm fuzzy feeling inside every time. “FROM THE TOP! ACTION!” I decided I wanted to make the most ambitious one take video yet. Throw in as many moving parts and as many people into the mix as I could, and even add a little dance choreography. This was before my music had ‘taken off’ and I’d just left my current management, I was pretty broke, so I also had to pull this off with no money. That made it even more exciting. My friend Benny had this apartment that he bought off my Spanish friend Raffa. The parties in this flat were pretty legendary and appropriately full of debauchery. The hallway to the apartment looked like something out of a Kubrick film, and I instantly knew I had to film there. I kept thinking of the movie Eyes Wide Shut. I turned to Benny one afternoon and asked what he thought about me turning his apartment into a jungle. He smiled, he agreed. Me, Benny and a few friends headed out into a cold February night in the early hours of the morning dressed in black, with some gardening shears, a hatchet, and some bin bags. We spent hours hacking at overhanging weeds, ivy, whatever we could find, filling up bin bags. What I didn’t know, but found out during the Texas plant-saw massacre is that Benny used to be a botanist. He told me the Latin names for each of the plants we mercilessly shoved inside the bin bags. What we definitely didn’t do for legal reasons was borrow some unusual looking exotic plants from a botanical garden at 1am. We returned to the apartment and spent the remainder of the night Covering the walls in plants. Ivy - or to use its Latin name - Hedera Hibernica - looks great parcel taped to a white wall. We then created a makeshift torture rack out of a clothes rail, painted the bathroom in faux blood, and filled the bathtub with red jelly, naturally. The whole apartment took a few days to totally transform into a magic mushroom Orwellian fever dream, it was perfect. I had acquired about 80 latex animal masks and a gorilla suit from amazon, and acquired about 80 friends and friends of friends insane enough to agree to take part in the shoot. What ensued was hours of pure chaos, an apartment hall littered in people in latex animal masks while horrified looking neighbours walked nervously passed. You’d walk out into the hallway and see a man in a wedding dress with an ostrich mask riding a lowrider BMX over the carpet. Walk into another room and people in Dog masks playing poker were doing shots of tequila and smoking menthol cigarettes. Everything was going exactly as I intended Somehow, during the chaos, we managed to film a music video. Sure it was about 4am when we got the final take, and we’d started filming at about 7pm, but that’s not the point, we got the shot. My friends left, scarred and broken shells of who they used to be, and I left with one hell of a music video. Animal Flow drops at 8pm BST on Thursday 4th May I hope to see you all here for the Premier!

This actually is a one take video, he's really into that and said that this was the most challenging one he's ever done. He has made comments in the video about the filming of this one, all of the characters are friends or friends of a friend. The idea of the song is based on the book Animal farm by George Orwell, Ren is a huge fan of Orwell. So many symbols and references to analyze here. He's a master mind really, you just gotta love him. Great reaction! And yes, he was very much inspired by Kanye with this one, he commented that on his Twitch live after the video was dropped.

Ren is one of those few people who need to make music to live. He thought he was dying and he put everything in music to leave something behind.

I wonder if Sony regrets dropping him yet. Their loss is our gain though.

[@adam.4487]

@@janawham3296 Sony can't box up Ren and Ren doesn't need Sony or any other company. He should never be stifled or boxed up along with others in the music business.

9 hours of takes.

[@aimeekeel]

Yeah more than a few times, plus weeks of rehearsal and planning before the day.

[@tattoodude8946]

First - good on the gorilla for keeping up that energy for that many takes! Second - the poor cobra - her head turned sideways on her as soon as she touched Ren. She had to be blind for the rest of the take - but she stuck with it like a trooper! 🤣🤣🤣

Ren is crazy talented. This video is built around George Orwell's novel "Animal Farm". So much symbolic imagery. The beat that is just fire. Ren said he drew inspiration from Kanye's Black Skinhead, you're right. And being Ren, he made it very much his own unique vibe. Gets your blood racing, doesn't it? Ren has said he's agnostic, to answer your question. Great reaction! ❤

[@bethcote9978]

The white board rules from Orwells Animal Farm are a nice touch.

[@philsilverthorn]

There is so much confidence in this track. It's like Ren knows he has his platform, has his audience, knows it's his time and he's just saying what he wants and presenting his vision in exactly the way he's imagined it. The end result is a breath of fresh air. No one else that I'm aware of is doing anything like this.

[@DianeLFC]

Great reaction! ❤ 1 take and it seems to be based around the animal farm book where the animals had an uprising and rebelled against the humans. Or something like that. Love this one! ❤

Yeah, they overthrew a farmer. It's a summary of Communism. Must read

[@no54atu]

The video is loaded with George Orwell’s Animal Farm book, and he I think incorporated that in to taking over the rulers of these times, like how in the book the animal anarchy took over the farm, is why he had that 7 rule which was in the book🙏🏽

The 7 commands of Animals as you so call them is from George Orwells 'Animal Farm'. It's super well known. It's bit like how Ren is getting. Awesome reaction dude.

Animal farm music video. Gotta love it.

[@lisac243]

There is so much to explore 😊 Ren Rabbit Hole 🐰

[@ClearTheRubble7]

Excellent reaction! Yes, quite a lot to unpack! Maybe I'm reading something into the last shot that's not really there, but I noticed that Ren seemed to emphasize that he was using the cane as a walking stick. When he leaned on it, he became "three-legged," and I thought of the animal rules: Four legs good, two legs bad. Having three legs, Ren was somewhere between human and animal.

[@Veeliscious]

Ah interesting - could well be knowing Ren - good call. Whilst "we are all human beings", we are all animals too..

Ren's thorough musical knowledge really helps him create rap that is unique and unparallel by his peers. His timing, tempo, transitions, flow, and more are so individual to him. No one else is creating music quite like him. I'm not even much of a rap fan, but it's the music and the way he puts it together that draws you in. Just so well made.
