So many amazing parts of these songs, but one that's rarely mentioned is "dear Screech, dear boy, WHEEERRRRE did he go". The almost wailing of "where" is just really eerie.

A literary metaphor for life (being born) and death being one and the same. It all starts where it ends and ends where it starts.

Violet died on 2005 (London city far from pretty, 2-0-0-5) and Jenny&James(Screech-J&J since they’re twins) were born the day she died. They’re both 14 by the first and last time they meet each other, which means 2019, and that is also the year the first song (Jenny’s tale) was released This story is so well-thought if you’re gonna dig deep into all the details

[@TrevandErin]

[@stevebaker2896]

@@TrevandErin Another little detail - in Screech's tale, Patrick wasn't in when Screech knocked on his door and his (ex?) girlfriend was 'busy' when he phoned her looking for refuge. Busy with Patrick as it turns out...

[@nguyenngoc-ee8lc]

@@TrevandErin and Ren made a short clip of Screech’s back story 1 week before the incident happended. It turned out that he’s been abused at his home (by his adoptive farther I guess) so he always been scared of coming home, that’s why he spend more and more time on the street. That night also, afraid of coming back and getting hit, he decided to sneak into a house nearby to steal and grabbed the knife inside the kitchen then running away after almost getting caught by the owner. I guess it’s one thing led to another in a very bad way

[@danielrobinson-df8hg]

The best part of the whole trilogy imo was either at the end of screeches tale when he kicks in with "Richard was an officer who stood..." or violets tale where he comes in with "that's the sound of his fists..." musically speaking that is. Don't be quick to condemn screech think about his potential societal position. I read Patrick his best friend has been screwing the love of his life which has been tormenting his mindset and thought processes for a long time. Screech has been suicidal for along time and longing to die. He then bumped into jenny their eyes they met. When he killed Jenny he killed himself. He saw himself in his twins eyes. He acted on ferocious emotion. Unbeknownst to him and he ultimately and immediately regretted his actions. Compassion is needed here. Patrick was with screeches mrs in Patrick's when he was knocking. He knew this deep down hence the persistence in knocking. He then immediately phones his Mrs but she was busy. This certified his deep agonising suspicions hence he went out swinging he effectively committed suicide. The trilogy is extremely thought provoking. It's a modern-day masterpiece. Big facts hundred percent.

[@JennyAnton]

Great reaction. I have watched Ren busking many times over the last seven years in Brighton (UK) and it’s gratifying to see his talent finally being recognised globally. Please watch more of Ren to appreciate his versatility. I suggest Chalk Outlines (live) to hear his beautiful singing voice.

[@ryderjohnson1293]

It takes a lot for me to consider an artist (not just musician) a favorite. Ren did it with two performances.

[@TrevandErin]

You're speaking facts

[@Seaglassandsandcastles]

I can easily see him creating a broadway show like Hamilton in the future. His music, rap, storytelling and acting performing is amazing!

[@TrevandErin]

It would fit so well

[@ct5625]

Even more impressive is that Ren released the Jenny and Screech songs two years before he released Violet's tale. He posted additional aspects of the story on social media at different times, little extra details like the fact that Screech's friend wasn't home because he was with his girlfriend. This indicates Ren was still thinking about the story as its own entity and not just a song or two, and he was heading toward writing Violet's tale in a very organic way. I would recommend reacting to "Ren X Chinchilla Chalk Outlines Live" if you really want to hear his vocal ability on full display. This guy doesn't just write, perform, play the guitar and piano, direct and produce, he can actually sing, and I mean REALLY sing. It's rare for me to find a vocalist who hits that sweet spot, but I get the same feeling from his full singing voice that I get from hearing Jeff Buckley or Eddie Vedder. There's something very unique about his tone that really makes him stand out.

[@claycarpenter8625]

Im curious to know if he originally planned in a trilogy and illness kept him down or did Violets tale hit him later and he figured out a way to expand on it. Its gotta be one of the two with two years between the first two tales.

[@TrevandErin]

I wasn't going to comment because I also do lol but I just wanted to say I just discovered Ren and I feel like dude where have I been all this time?🤣🤣 I was in my 20s listening to Ella Fitzgerald and 1950s swing and now I'm a 41 year old woman listening to rap lol. Ren has made it to my top 5 I am blown away with how gifted he is. I saw a video of him playing the piano yesterday like what can't he do? Lol Anywho great reaction Trev this was awesome 🥳

He plays the drums and the bass as well, his last band "the big push" has loads of busking videos shot in Brighton including a Nina Simone cover. I'm a 55 year old Male, who likes most music, but must admit I do struggle with rap, I think Ren has converted me....I might buy a shell suit.

In Jenny's Tale, "found a place to sleep" and "I guess she escaped" were both references to death while also being call-backs to earlier lyrics "heading home to sleep" and "she's looking to escape".

[@TrevandErin]

That’s awesome

[@prestonwuest]

Violet was Jenny and Screech’s mom. They were separated at birth so they never knew of each other. Jenny was just like her mother and Screech was just like his dad. (Stevie) Screech ended up killing his sister. (Who he didn’t know was his sister) This is just amazing story telling and just like you said “it’s like I’m reading a book”. I love your reactions, keep them coming. I would love if you reacted to Ren and Sam Tompkins - Earned it / Mans world / Falling. It’s live and really shows off Ren and Sam’s voices.

[@mehere6865]

I love the beginning, - pure Bard pose and humming designed to capture your attention and draw you in, we could be right in the middle ages here but damn! he paints such lurid visuals in your mind using location, light and sound that you cannot help but be scared/angry/sad. he paints imagery like a modern day Shakespearean bard. I'm so happy to have discovered this Modern Genius.

[@TrevandErin]

Right!

[@JensRandolff]

This was another enjoyable reaction. Ren actually plays multiple instruments, has impressive vocals, is an excellent storyteller, and is quite the philosopher and poet. "The Tale of Jenny/Screech/Violet" is another example of Ren’s genius and a master’s class in storytelling. It has been likened to a Shakespearean tragedy. Ren’s collaborations with Chinchilla (“Chalk Outlines,” “How to Be Me”) are beautiful and showcase his singing voice while addressing mental health. I would watch the official live music videos. "Chalk Outlines" is one of my favorite songs right now. Ren's personal reflections are threaded through many of his songs; "Insomnia," "Depression," “Diazepam," “Penitence,” “Dear God,” “Heretic,” “Dominos,” his "Freckled Angels" album, just to name a few, all deserve a listen. His song "Money Game" (Part I & II) is another recommendation. Ren’s Hip Hop/Rap style songs are also worth checking out; they are simply amazing. Check out “The Hunger,” “Genesis,” “What You Want,” “Losing it (FISHER rap retake),” “Right here, right now (Fatboy Slim one shot retake),” and his latest release, “Bittersweet symphony (The Verve retake).” His performances with Sam Tompkins (“Blind Eyed,” “Earned it /Mans World / Falling,” “Walking on the Moon), Eden Nash (“Humble,” “Ocean”), Bibi (“Crutch,” “Ahiahiaoha”), Molly McKinna (“Penitence”), his former bandmate, Romain Axisa (“French Song”) are all great. His performances with Sam Tompkins (“Blind Eyed,” “Earned it /Mans World / Falling,” “Walking on the Moon), Eden Nash (“Humble,” “Ocean”), Bibi (“Crutch,” “Ahiahiaoha”), Molly McKinna (“Penitence”), his former bandmate, Romain Axisa (“French Song”) are all great. Ren's performances as a member of the band "The Big Push" (which unfortunately broke up), their busking (street performances), concerts, and their live recordings, are awesome and well worth checking out. Ren's covers of "I Shot the Sheriff," "Wade in the Water," "An Englishman in New York," the songs "Oh My Woman," “Swan Song,” and so many others are equally impressive and really give you a sample of his vocal ability. Ren recently released his single, “Sick Boi.” In anticipation of his stay in Canada for more treatments, Ren prepared some music ahead of time to be released over the next six months that he expects to be gone. "Sick Boi" is almost another chapter to "Hi Ren." as mentioned above, his latest release, “Bittersweet Symphony (The Verve retake),” is another great piece of work.

[@TrevandErin]

This one was a really great song. I appreciate the comment!

[@robert_5974]

It's great storytelling and I love that you could see the gears turning for you at the end and just needed confirmation of what you heard.

[@TrevandErin]

Yeah 😂 had to make sure

[@fourcornersofbrighton]

I love watching your reactions! My reaction was very similar. I am in awe of how he uses the guitar as a stand in for the door, gun, etc. Also, most mainstream artists wouldn't think of using their cell phone to further the plot line. Musically, Violet's Tale is my favorite too. Partially because there was a lot going on in his walk too, he had to pace himself to arrive to the door at the correct time (on top of playing guitar, singing and acting), yet he still did an amazing job with all 3!

[@TrevandErin]

That's true I didn't even think of that. He had to time everything perfectly

[@reactivereplays5666]

3:00 I heard someone relate him to a story teller at a tavern hundreds of years ago... Playing, singing, and story telling. Also, Jenny didn't find somewhere to sleep... Screech turned her to butter (ded/alseep) when he was swinging with the devil possessed in his chest. She wasn't homeless just on her way home. Edit: I see you figured that out lol. Last edit: I don't think Jenny and James (Screech) were conceived by rap*. Violet's dad did that to her when she was young and her drunk mother didn't care. Stevie (she met at work) he was a prick but he sure knew how to charm her. He beat her (not rap*). Loved the reaction. I agree Ren is a fricking music and writing genius.

Violets tale is set in London 2005. She was abused by her father and her mother was a drunk who knew what was going on but didn't care. She left home at 16 and got a job in a supermarket stacking shelves. She then meets a boy named Stevie who charmed her but was a prick. He would beat her up frequently. Her only defence through all this abuse was to stay silent. Eventually his beatings put Violet in hospital fighting for her life. The Doctor sees that she is pregnant and Violet begs him to save her baby(s) as she knows she is dying. She gives birth to twins, they lay side by side in the hospital as Violet died.. 14 years later in 2019 Screech kills Jenny after a mugging goes wrong. Screech then gets shot and killed by a police officer after Screech runs at him with a knife. Both Jenny and Screech lay dead less than one Street apart. They did not know each other but they are in fact brother and sister. They are the twins Violet gave birth to on her death bed. They will have been separated and taken into care.

[@colbybostian1393]

It seems also something that a lot of people miss is that Jenny is like Screech and has learned to work the streets, while Screech is robbing people, Jenny is working the streets in a different way, at 14 years old... truly adds another layer to the tragedy.

[@kalichinn4377]

The silence isnt a defense tactic i dont think, its more of a personality trait that infuriated both screech and stevie, they wanted a reaction and didn't get one which infuriated them to the point where they went to far and killed Jenny and Violet.

I have literally never had an artist bring me on a roller coaster of emotions like Ren does. He is such a multi-talented artist. It is mind-blowing to me. I couldn't believe the ending of this the first time I heard it. And there's so many little things throughout that he says that makes it even deeper. I've heard the song more times than I can count. It's intense and difficult to swallow, but the message is powerful and unfortunately very real for a lot of people in this world. I pray for anybody going through physical or mental abuse and that they get out of it and find healing and find Jesus

I've watched so many times now, other reactors, because this is so unlike ANYTHING most of us have ever heard! And I like to support other reactors. Seems like your a fairly new channel, or at least reactions. I haven't had a chance to check your content page yet. I don't know a lot about him, yet, but I do know that he is TOP SHELF. I call it Performance Art, because it is so much more than Music, more than a genre, it's not quite Rap, yet it is. It's not Folk, yet it shares some similarities. He can play Rock; His guitar riffs and melodies are stellar with those Nylon strings he's using also shows of his Quirkiness. You just cannot put a label on him. I do know that he is a Poet (which I adore) and played in a Street band called:"The Big Push". So he is just so "EXTRA"! I just reacted to Ren & X Chinchilla in a duet called "Chalk Outlines", which is really great. Different, it's more of an original song style, but the lyrics are great. This is a Rabbit hole I will be exploring deeply! Great reaction, and hey- if I can ever be of any help, or you care for a few free tips, I'd be happy to share them with you. We reactors have to support each other, The more successful it is for Reactors, the less likely YT is going to mess with us over Copyright. I don't know what you do when you get them, I get them on almost all of my videos, and I dispute every single one. I'd be happy to share info if you're interested. There is so much great music out there that will BLOW YOUR MIND! Feel free to check out my channel.

Then move on to chalk outlines and performances with his band the big push busking or concerts and his rap side is phenomenal man but I had a hard time keeping up with some songs because his rapping is so fast I’d have to rewind a lot to get it but I got it just took my slow ass awhile and I’ve been watching Nf for 8 months now, just saying!

Screech, possessed by the devil. The line "The Devil comes to Dance" followed by him knocking on the door as the dad, the dad of the twins, who both took after the parents. This is amazing wordplay and lyricism

[@TrevandErin]

It really is.

[@sampanther8854]

Amazing reaction ❤🤘

I wish they had a hit list....wait I better not say this on YT. 🤣

Facts

[@sylvandarquenne1064]

Check him out in a band called "The Big Push"

[@TrevandErin]

I will!

[@cherylrobbins715]

Jenny was hesitant/quiet like her mom, Violet. Screech was violent like his father. Support for the “nature theory” over the “nurture theory”?

[@marcatkinson4149]

Jenny wasn't homeless, he said she on her WAY home to sleep. When he says she found a place to sleep, he means she is sleeping dead on the sidewalk. Jenny and Screech were likely raised separately in foster care, neither even knowing they had a sibling, since the mother died, and the father either fled or went to prison for murder.

[@reik0suave71]

The great part about musical interpretation is that even his perspective doesn't have to be wrong. And Ren passively allows the prostitute perspective at the end of the song. Because you can interpret that she is looking for a home/bed to sleep in for the night to escape the night just to find it lying on the pavement as she's dying.

[@TrevandErin]

Yeah I definitely messed up at the beginning

[@phreedumb9671]

As for your request for other artists with a similar level of creativity, the only artist that comes to mind is BO BURNHAM. He's a genius, an incredible musician, and a comedian. He's popular on reaction channels. It would be huge if you checked him out. Start with his earlier stuff and move forward from there.

[@TrevandErin]

That sounds fun

[@mickjuul1977]

Great reaction..

[@danielrobinson-df8hg]

The best part of the whole trilogy imo was either at the end of screeches tale when he kicks in with "Richard was an officer who stood..." or violets tale where he comes in with "that's the sound of his fists..." musically speaking that is. Don't be quick to condemn screech think about his potential societal position. I read Patrick his best friend has been screwing the love of his life which has been tormenting his mindset and thought processes for a long time. Screech has been suicidal for along time and longing to die. He then bumped into jenny their eyes they met. When he killed Jenny he killed himself. He saw himself in his twins eyes. He acted on ferocious emotion. Unbeknownst to him and he ultimately and immediately regretted his actions. Compassion is needed here. Patrick was with screeches mrs in Patrick's when he was knocking. He knew this deep down hence the persistence in knocking. He then immediately phones his Mrs but she was busy. This certified his deep agonising suspicions hence he went out swinging he effectively committed suicide. The trilogy is extremely thought provoking. It's a modern-day masterpiece. Big facts hundred percent.

[@TrevandErin]

Yeah it truly is a master piece

[@debrashrider4062]

Thank you.

[@louistracy6964]

Just a thought, but this artist is drawing together people, seen here in US and UK audiences in understanding.

[@TrevandErin]

That’s true he really is. Some redneck in the us listened to a uk artist 😂

[@dougoneill7266]

Jenny wasn't a prostitute, she was simply walking home. she wasn't homeless, just an innocent girl walking home. Glad you liked it.

[@e55ex36]

Did he confirm that on instagram or something? He describes a brass. Slice the Rosy of your cheeks, Rosy is infamous for sex workers. Walk the same street a thousand times before. She too young to have a real job especially being out that late. And lastly she wanted to escape, escape the life she was living. I think you might be wrong but if there’s confirmation somewhere else I stand corrected

[@JoesTheBestInTheWorl]

The beat of Jenny's feet, she'd walked it a thousand times before, in high heels at night?

[@e55ex36]

@@JoesTheBestInTheWorl also this. Nice spot

[@ianhislop6782]

I think is left vague on purpose. Either way it doesn’t matter, she was a victim of violent crime.

[@JoesTheBestInTheWorl]

It reinforces her similarity with her mother in that they were both raped as children and as a resullt they both froze when confronted with violence. It's all circles within circles and feedback loops.

I will!

Shakespeare if he could play guitar is Ren. Greek tragedy and everyone dies.

[@highcomputing2342]

he can beatbox too

[@TrevandErin]

No way

[@MercuryXZ]

one thing that caught me off guard is that if jenny is screech's twin & they were born at the same time then why is a 14 yo girl walking the streets in high heels at night, that's a part of the story that had me thinking a bunch, cause screech is 14 so she must be the same age

[@TrevandErin]

That's what I was thinking..in high heels too

[@RaelDanger]

I'm from a rough part of the UK, saw girls wearing high heels young (about age 12) and going out drinking around that age too. The legal age is 18 but that's never stopped kids getting alcohol. That could be what Ren was alluding to.

[@nguyenngoc-ee8lc]

Can you consider doing Ren’s Children of the moon? It’s a brilliant song visually and audibly and I’ve seen no reactor takes note on that one yet, it deserves more attention😢 And his song Dear God also has a really brilliant aspect of religious belief if you’re interested in religious content

[@TrevandErin]

I can definitely do that I appreciate it

[@daverich3352]

I don't think Jenny was homeless when he sings about her walking home.

[@TrevandErin]

True.

Constructive criticism. While the song is playing don't talk, even though you got headphones on you are shifting your train of thought, that could cause interference with what you're hearing, it was proven out through this reaction.

[@TrevandErin]

Thanks! As NF says I’ll take criticism if it isn’t presented ignorantly. So I appreciate your feedback!

[@greekbbque2745]

Joyner Lucas, NF, are great story tellers. But dude, Ren is in a whole different level. Great reaction !

[@TrevandErin]

Yeah ren has a very theatrical way of writing, NF is more cinematic, and I haven't listened to enough joyner to be able to comment on his style yet

[@greekbbque2745]

@@TrevandErin Ross Capicchioni, Snitch are some of the best of joyners storytellings. Also the one with Ross is real story so give em a try!
