Ren - Money Ties | Reaction

[@TooHighToPlay]

Anyones who's suffered with chronic illness has had a lot more time to simply exist (often in pain and exhusted) and think. It humbles you and gives you time to reflect on whats really important. Ren has found a way to communicate this without being overly preachy and accepting the hypocrisy. One of a kind. 💚

[@kellyt5341]

💯...🤗

[@jorice5528]

Yes 💯 ❤

[@MsCogan555]

Exactly, as a Chronic pain patient myself, Sick boi was pulling me in because it felt like someone was saying my thoughts out loud.

[@yilomina2047]

He preaches ... scrap that, he teaches 😉 So good!

[@TanyaQueen182]

Like Ren said in The Hunger: "I teach over beats. To all those who seek". Great reaction as always!

[@Lift_Eachother_Up]

❤ well said, I always think about that line and how true it is

[@illuminestra3804]

This song is so important! The love he has for his sister is breath-taking!!!

[@KarenJones-ce2no]

Ren always makes us think, great reaction.

[@joshuawiedenbeck6944]

"Money makes the sick boi sicker somehow." This is especially pertinent when you realize that Ren's success led to Kujo getting into a legal battle with him. Stress can cause people with Rens' condition to relapse and get worse. And here we are with Ren going back to Canada....

[@staceyharris4937]

Also he has paid a lot of money for certain types of treatment that he really thought was going to make him better when it actually made him sicker.

[@dbmyrrha]

Being a billionaire is ridiculous. If I won a lottery and had millions of dollars, the first thing I would do is start a charitable foundation. Once you have enough to live on comfortably, the only moral thing to do is help others.

[@rogerstarkey5390]

What many forget is that being a "Billionaire" today, is like being a "Millionaire" decades ago

[@dbmyrrha]

@@rogerstarkey5390 I still don’t need a fucking billion dollars. A million saved for retirement would be more than enough.

[@amydavies2529]

I agree! My grandfather taught me to live within my means and help others if you can.

[@majbrat]

Facts

[@majbrat]

Elon musk asked how much it would cost to end would hunger and was given an answer which he could have helped and started a movement with other billionaires to try to do it, but instead stopped talking about it. Disgusting.

[@DanKennedy-i3z]

This world needs Ren , love your reaction.

[@iamsquatty]

Ren is a very important person for the human race. Hes a treasure, and im so glad to be on this earth the same time he is. 🥹💜

[@deedii92]

I just want to be comfortable, own a modest home with a decent yard for my kids and some dogs, not have to worry how I’m going to pay bills or have to skip meals so that my kids have enough to eat. I don’t want to be a millionaire

[@deedii92]

This song has so many quotables (like a lot of his songs) but I want a hoodie with this one. When we lose sight of live and let live Forget your soul is made much richer by the love that you give If you're living just to make a living, that's all there is And when you're lying, slowly dying, will you die with a grin?”

[@feathersz1952]

when i get a new Ren track, i kinda feel like i maybe relate to people that saw Tupac when he was coming up. Like maybe Ren is going to be in the history books and i get to watch the progression. its seriously incredible to witness.

[@Caketime2]

It's not a maybe! Ren is going to do even more amazing things by simply being himself :-)

[@jorice5528]

Absolutely 💯 he will be in the history books ❤

[@bunnyshredderrl8689]

I absolutely love this Ren performance.

[@chelseahaley8350]

Just the genius doing genius things! Much love, Dom! 🫶

We are all here to make the world a better place. We just need to be reminded sometimes, because we forget...

[@audivawalsh2983]

He wanted to get this out for his sisters birthday last month but he collapsed and went blind for a couple of days pushing too hard :( This song makes me cry every time at the sister part. So many feels. The producer of this one was also ripped off by Kujo. They considered doing Beat Down together but Ren wanted to do that one himself so they're 50/50 on this one.

[@Shiroar]

We knew he was a genius artist and a beautiful human being inspiring positive change. Now there’s no doubt that he’s also a loving big brother ❤ The real shocker here to me though is that this collaboration with nayz came about as a result of the Kujo situation. Which means that this is another track that wasn’t part of the plans for his upcoming album. Just a little masterpiece of a bonus song. In the midst of his health taking a dive. I know music helps him stay alive, but this is still blowing my mind 🖤🐰

[@philflynn9161]

Awesome reaction ❤ had to call my wee sister after this:)

[@LeeannG]

I love that!

[@vickyknight4461]

Great reaction as always Dom. Ren sure has a way with words. Always makes us think, such a genius. He is so special. 🥰

[@rogerstarkey5390]

"Would you want to be a Billionaire?" . "We" have blurred the definitions of "Enough" and "MORE!" (Ref Money game.... especially Part 3)

Greed for money drove Kujo to make "Sick Boi" sicker.

Problem is not in money. Problem is in people... I have no money until the end of the month. I have a job but life, normal life is so expensive... But I know there are many people without nothing and without hope😢. This is crazy world...

[@reinori8322]

Enough Money? What a slippery concept. I think what Ren has been saying is that no figure will ever be 'Enough' - If your focus is on money as an end. Yeah sure I would like to jet about the world not ever giving a thought to money. I am afraid I would be a complete failure at being rich. A $100 tip for the barista for a good latte - No problem. If I won $100 million in the lottery, I would be broke in a year. Hopefully, I would have done some good.

[@johanneblanchard2683]

Thank you for a great reaction.

[@Veeliscious]

Nice reaction Dom. Another Reactor said on one of the Money Game tracks - "How much is enough?" and then quantified it with there is a ceiling to where more money stops enhancing your life comfort any further, as in once you have all you want & need, you can get anything you want, go anywhere you want etc then any sum more than that doesn't add anything to your life and is literally just surplus and that stuck with me. Before I even reached that ceiling I know I'd be using much of what I had to to help others but even if i wanted to wait til I reached that level, I just can't comprehend the mentality of those multimillionaires & billionaires who have everything they need & rather than share their excesses to help others, they just want more, more, more all to themselves even though they could never spend it all in 100 lifetimes

[@skullionchild]

I just want to be comfortable. If y son and my animals are taken care of, I’m good.

To answer your question: yes, i'd like to be a billionaire. Because I know I'm a very good spender. I'm tough on negotiations, I make the best of every cent, and I value more practicality and durability than appearance. So I'd channel most of that money to kids, for health and education. The money is not the issue, it's the way we think it.

[@pohjiebarbosa]

Amen 🔥

[@lysfleming3331]

Great reaction as always. Ren is giving me hope every day. Genius

[@goaty1964]

Money ties - you can't escape it - the secret they don't tell you is that there's a sweet spot. Not enough and you become obsessed with it to make rent etc - too much and you become obsessed about "winning the game" - then you don't know who your friends are, just lots of associates and broken relationships. Does anyone ever say - "I've got enough.."

[@jeanwyenberg2774]

I would want to be a billionaire so I could give most of it to those who could make the most of it. (not other wealthy people but those who need help) I would keep enough to have the things that would make me happy.

Children are not Children for long today. People say they have to grow up quickly these days. WHY. 🎉🎉🎉

[@momishka7]

“Consummate” ❤ his accent seems stronger in this one, could be a symptom of his illness

[@mikesimpson1866]

It’s an intentionally blend of conjugate and consummate and consume mate. The verb does conjugate the noun. But also money makes you eff the noun. And money makes us consume bro (mate).

[@Aaronblkgt]

I heard he lost his sight and I'm freaking out we can't loss his talent b4 he ever actually makes it

[@francesdoll4039]

He lost sight in one eye for 3 days. He had an MRI and they found chronic nerve inflamation damage down his spine. Not sure what symptoms he all has, but I know he was having leg and feet pain, twitching leg muscles. Concerned there might be more nerve damage since the flare, but he has not said.

[@sparrowlegs68]

Have been looking forward to your reaction, as always you never disappoint ♥♥

Love Rens music it always resonates with me ❤❤❤

[@rowanthomas9181]

I mean money can't buy happiness, but can make life easier. 'Money makes the world go round' Ren said it all in this song. Money ties.

[@arklilbro]

Just want to not have to worry about money

[@mikep83]

Great reaction as always mate. Ren doing Ren as you say educating the world and bringing light. To you question as day to day all I want is for me and family to be comfortable but if I won a billion out of now where I’d take it and be the rising tide that lifts all ships around me and use it for great things. That’s the difference, love of money or sharing that love outwards to help others.

[@davemick7216]

All his collabs he's been in are awesome - Knox Hill, Chris Webby, Prof. Ren is amazing.

[@CeliriaRose]

I wouldn’t say no to being a billionaire but I would be the type who wouldn’t really want it and would probably give large amounts of it to various causes. I’m not a big spender to begin with so personally just affording to enjoy my hobbies and live comfortably would be enough and beyond that I’d rather see money put to a good cause than sitting around or splurging on things I would never use.

[@susankessler4076]

Dear Dom, thanks for this heartfelt reaction to Ren's amazing song! Always enjoy hearing your thoughts. Please react to Knox' song Drive Thru, would love to see it!! ❤ crazy good one!

I’ve been waiting for your reaction, great as always ❤

[@BryanRobinson-z5m]

I've said it other reactions, and I will say it again; I Believe Ren is a Prophet. Like Prophets of old, Ren was challenged by "Our Creator" with illness and suffering to test his worthiness to bring "HIS WORD"; Ren has proven his worthiness. He speaks/sings 'Truth', bringing messages that 'Mankind' NEEDS to hear. In the song "Sound of Silence", there is a verse where they say, "The Words of the Prophets are Written on the Subway Walls, and Tenement Halls"; Ren brings the 'Word' through his music. God Bless!

[@salishseamermaid]

I'd love to have a billion dollars to give away, but I don't need much to live on. I love Ren so much. And love your reactions, too!

[@MsCogan555]

Ren-Ministry , Love it

[@richardhuff1256]

No way would I want that kind of money. If I came into multi millions I would make sure my family's future is secure and comfortable. Beyond that the rest is excess. Why not go into local utility companies, hospitals, ect and pay off strangers bills. Money you don't need by any means could get you more sure. But for what? If you could single handly improve the well being of 1000s of others wouldn't that feel much better than another property in your name?

[@jmas43]

Why not buy the local utility companies and lower the prices (after forgiving the debt)? Seems the problem is greedy people in charge, so we the people should take charge and remove the greedy.

The Love of Money is the root of All Evil! Money is just paper

[@CosmicVagabondPixie]

F YEA!!! **GeniusRenUnicorn**

[@BryanRobinson-z5m]

Money itself is not the root of evil, but the Love of Money IS. Money is just a tool for easier trade, but some abuse the tool. In the 1988 movie, "They Live", staring 'Rowdy Roddy Piper', aliens have 'Cloaked' everything so humans would not discover them, but with special 'Sunglasses' people could 'See' the Truth; my point, when 'Piper' wore them, he looked at money and it was plain paper with the words "This Is Your God"; everything else had cloaked messages also. In our world today there are people that Worship money like it Was God. With messages like this song, maybe 'We Humans' will wake the 'F' up, and strive to change the ills of this world; and Only worship 'Our Creator'; however one's Faith defines 'Him'. God Bless!

Yes! "Money Ties" - "Monetize"

[@LeeannG]

I can easily answer this question, I think about it all the time. Hard no to being a billionaire. You cannot be a billionaire and a good person, full stop. A billion is 1000x more than a million and no one gets there through hard work of their own.

[@kellyt5341]

Exactly. Stomping on people is the least you would do. You lie and you manipulate to many different people, likely relatives, you then crush, injure or maim. I can only assume people die. This can mean figuratively or literally or both. The morals are gone because these people under your feet that "disappear" are no more important than bugs. If you are a trust fund baby then your parents/grandparents did the butchering. You likely will do whatever to keep that lump sum plump and diversified. My opinion on a billionaire. People with multi-millions are likely doing some shady sh!t. Lottery winners are so few and they usually seem to have their lives ruined by the money and end up broke.

[@ambermcvay6844]

To answer your question...I think the lack of money makes a man rich as long as he has a relationship with his maker...which no man can match that price...but Im pretty sure you know what I mean, and why we're here for Ren....thank you for getting the message ❤❤❤❤

[@jessicalingo4346]

I think most people just wants enough money to be content but the more money they get the more upgrades they get (upgrades in phones, cars, property and such) unfortunately people keep thinking they need more and more to be content when they forget the reason. The way society is is it makes it almost impossible to stay content with what you have because the simple upgrades stop working so you're forced to get the new one and therefore get more money. The quality of products prevens us from being content with what we have. People say if i can pay my rent, my transportation, my food my entertainment my mode of communication, other main bills and save then i will be content. Unfortunately the amount of money each item requires only goes up and continues to go up. This life wont let you stay content cause its all about greed. The people not in power are always just striving to be content. The people in control of them are striving for greed. Because the people controling the masses are greedy it makes it harder and harder for those just wanting to be content. Each person has to find their contentment within themselves and not continue to find the happiness in everything else. So yez i want enough money to be content and in a better place than where im at right now (homeless with very little to my name) but i dont want to be chasing contentment and not realizing im content with what i have when i am in a better place.

[@BryanRobinson-z5m]

"Money make a 'Sick Boi' sicker somehow"; I think it has a couple meanings. The issue with his song 'Sick Boi' and Kujo likely stressed Ren so much that it made him become sick again; also, that situation made the song blow up even more, (Sicker). One other thing, 'money and greed' presented a topic to several of Ren's songs, which contributed to Ren being able to be 'Sicker' with his 'Spittin'. That's my take.

[@traceybarger2628]

[@jabo22]

I think I'd see being a billionaire as a failure, in that I failed to share the wealth I accumulated , most likely at the cost of others that helped me gain that wealth. I was an engineer at big corporations, and there are a lot of people that do well, but there are those at the top that do really well based on the work of others, so they exploit the workers to give themselves a much bigger piece of the pie.

[@PeachesAndDiamonds]
