Yep, you can just listen to Ren. You’ll never be listening to the same thing. You’ll hear more variety than listening to a radio station all day.

[@enchantededition6879]

This track got more eggs than the Easter bunny

[@longkesh1971]

Yep, Ren has atomic bars and Main Source did album Breaking Atoms. Ren is also producer so he shows respect for Large Professor make the Halftime beats for Nas. Ren has respect for the creators.

[@pointlesslab4179]

He released this on Pie Day. Pirates and pie rats. So damn slick

[@longkesh1971]

And patch on one eye (Slick Rick??). Ren has a thousand Easter eggs up this piece.

[@Shiroar]

Ren is siiiiiick 🔥 And this is the sickest ad for some sick boi merch 😂 He gotta put that sweatshirt up on the merch store! Seriously though, Ren showing love for music he loves with his ReNtakes is yet another reason to love him. Somehow he manages to be humble and show respect for other artists while spitting braggadocios bars 😅 Not quite sure how that’s even possible, but hey it’s Ren doing Ren things 🤣 Oh and Ren isn’t just hip hop. Rapping isn’t even his main thing 😅 He has said that he feels the most at home singing and playing guitar. He just also raps and put out a hip hop album for fun and to prove he could 😂

[@PlymouthLad76]

Ren names all the greats of past just as a shool bus drives by 😎

[@sonicfear4472]

You haven't seen 1% of the different styles Ren can do. He can sing too. Like SANG sang IYKWIM. And play every instrument.

My girlfriend said "he is a musical decathlete, only he would win all the individual events." I especially loved her that day.

[@KenPrice-e7u]

He’s superb and what ever style or genre he goes at he’s right up there with talent whether he’s rapping brilliant and flawless or singing as good as anyone else I’ve heard or seen his guitar playing is beautiful he can play any instrument sing any song rap like fuck as good as most rappers and his busking songs and videos are really good they can take a classic song and make it sound and feel nearly as good if not better than the original Brighton I hope you know how lucky you are to have had this talent performing in your streets Ren and the big push and who could headline Glastonbury with that soul and energy and musical skills and Liv every song he does with her is brilliant she’s very talented great singer and artist I like her voice in her sessions with Ren and every person he sings and performs with are really good , I only discovered him about 3 weeks ago on TikTok his hi ren reaction song that song and video is absolutely amazing beginning to end I can’t believe he’s not a world wide name already every thing I’ve watched heard from him is some of the best music I’ve heard ever.

[@stonefaction]

Ren usually puts the lyrics in the comments section of his songs. The automated KZbin subtitles are rarely accurate, so if you want to know what he's saying, it is well worth finding Ren's official version. Have seen various reactors comment on lyrics/bars they've convinced themselves they've heard, but are not really like the actual lyrics.

[@joshuawiedenbeck6944]

This retake is half the length of the original "Halftime." It also makes references to a ton of stuff in the original song. On top of that, it shouts out the reaction community (split an atom, big reaction, super-size me) as a thank you to the reactors taking him from 200,0000 subscribers in January of 2023 to 1.3 million today.

[@sunshynff]

That's my first time hearing that, a bit of a stretch if ya ask me. I'm pretty sure his scheme about nuclear physics is a direct reference to breaking atoms the original source of Nas sample beat.

[@AroundTheWay_Jay]

@sunshynff I’m pretty sure your right on that

[@samanthazwickel]

@@sunshynff , it's likely a double. Ren has been very supportive to the reaction community.

[@ArthurRex-x4m]

Couple of Easter eggs for you : his scheme about nuclear physics is a direct reference to breaking atoms the original source of Nas sample beat Also his pirate reference says ‘wavey guy’. Nas original handle was kid wave More Easter eggs than the bunny has! Great reaction!

[@AroundTheWay_Jay]

Maannnnnnnnn oh mannnn

[@Prozak63]

Here's a few more Easter eggs that get missed, I think. Watch as Ren crosses the street. The crosswalk countdown hit zero just as he stops and goes into the "Pirates" bars. Then, consider that he released this track on Pi-day 3.14 or March 14th. Then, as he is paying homage to all the great "old-school" artists, he looks to his left as a school bus passes by. Finally, halftime was the 5th song on the Illmatic album. Like halftime on the album. Rens retake was exactly half the time of the original...

[@SloppyJolene]

@@Prozak63 it's genius. The man is a fucking genius. Every track 🤯

[@sunshynff]

I'll throw in a couple too, the brass horns you here back in the mix a little bit, are from the original song, Nas put them in there as a shout out to his dad, a jazz and blues musician originally from Mississippi, Ren left them in for the first half, and right when he stops after the crosswalk, they're replaced by those crunchy rock guitar riffs, which is Ren on the guitar, and I'm sure his way of putting his subtle stamp on modern hip hop. When Ren goes into what things would be like without Ren in rap, is a direct nod to Big L, he even uses a few of the same lines from one of his tracks. Big L was on the come up at the same time as Nas, but was shot and killed over some gang ish his brother was involved in, in 1999, after only releasing one album. His 2nd album was released posthumously, using a bunch of stuff he'd already recorded along with a ton of East Coast rappers that were big at the time, doing a verse in different songs, with Big L's already recorded tracks. Nas once said in an interview, years later, that Big L was the only rapper that ever scared him and made him question if he was good enough to make it to the big time, after hearing Big L freestyle at the Apollo Theatre. The song on the tribute album was called "The Big Picture (Intro)"....... "What's this motherf**kin' rap game without L? Yo, that's like jewels without ice That's like China without rice Or the Holy Bible without Christ Or the Bulls without Mike Or crackheads without pipes"

[@jenniferfoster1692]

Great reaction! Ren doesn't miss. To see another side of him, check out his band, The Big Push, doing , "I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop' (not the video of only I Shot the Sheriff. Look for the video w/all 3 names & Ren in red suspenders). I guarantee you'll love it. Ren singing like crazy, electric guitar, rapping, everything. And the other members are incredible, too.
