STORYTELLING MASTERPIECE!! | Rapper Reacts to Ren - Jenny's Tale (Full Analysis)

[@KnoxHill]

What else should we react to? 🤔 Comment below! Also if you like the song in the intro support the channel & message of my new video now 🖤 kzbin.info/www/bejne/favMipmubc2hd68

[@rbruceBruce]

Please do the rest as soon as possible. The tale of Screech and Violets tale. Please 🙏

[@cbird02]

It is a trilogy! Please do Screech and Violet in one take next! Just wait for the ending!

[@udoschwan6103]

hunger from ren that would be nice

[@Seaglassandsandcastles]

PLEASE do the other two songs while it’s fresh in your mind!

[@MrRichadlam]

the whole trilogy was also released as a single video. "Ren - The Tale of Jenny & Screech (Full)" make sure you do the next 2 parts in the correct order or you'll have spoilers!

[@RenMakesMusic]

Thankyou again for reacting Knox, big love! Also I spoke to my distributor, anytime you get an automated content claim on any reactions u do to my stuff just appeal it and it'll be approved so u can fully monetise these vids! wanted to find a way to give back to the people helping bring more awareness to my stuff! Appreciate it as always

[@gatorhardy7154]

Bro your music is a breath of fresh air to a world of fake smoke machines and strobe lights. Please keep it up we need artists like you, Knox and Tom Macdonald. Much love from America.

[@silmoherurosaslie]

Yo respect!

[@josephnelson2939]

Ren you are the rebirth of true art!! This one reminded me of a Sublime Ska beat & it was beautiful. Thank you brother for being you

[@KnoxHill]

Hell yea bro! Absolutely HUGE you doing that. Can't tell you how much I appreciate it. Love that you're independent and will always do what I can to support. So many factors against us out here it's great to see you giving back and connecting with the community. Keep going my guy

[@scottrhodes5234]

Bardcore!

[@A_Pez_Collector]

Ren is the King of Bardcore. He doesn't make music, he creates stories. You cannot convince me that in a previous life he wasn't a bard, travelling town to town telling stories to the tune of his stringed instrument for room, drink and food.

[@twobub10]

Been waiting on this! Can’t wait for the rest! Storytelling is INCREDIBLE

[@KnoxHill]

Agreed. What an artist

[@thehazelinthejane]

I'm thrilled to see that you're doing this song and I assume that you're going to do Screech and Violet as well in order to complete the trilogy. I do have to say however, that while I understand you doing them individually, especially as a reaction channel, imho watching them back-to-back (Ren compiled them into a single video on his page called The tale of Jenny and Screech (full) if that makes it easier) is the best way to do it. It almost loses a little something when you split them up. But seeing them back-to-back is like a 1-2-3 punch to the gut. But as always, great reaction. You do you. I'm here for it either way.

[@lancaster5498]

Agree with this completely

[@markphipps9463]

I don't usually like it when people pause it so much but you break things down so well and have interesting and relevant perspectives. You are the first person I've watched (and there have been loads) that has commented about the intros setting the tone for the song. Great work looking forward to seeing your views on screeches tale

[@AnotherWun]

It feels like such a crime not to see all 3 parts of this on one sitting as it feels like it takes away from the entire picture.

[@cas9065]

I had so been waiting for this. Thank you.

[@agatopol]

It's such a pleasure to watch how your brain works! It's not even the technicality of rap structure that amazed me (to be honest, i know nothing about rap) - it is the vast knowledge of european culture. Thank you for that! You are becoming my favorite reactor, greetings and best wishes from Bulgaria ❤

[@sharpy122]

Fuck yes Knox! Been waiting for you to get onto this trilogy. I can't wait for Ren to see this. You pick up on literally everything. He's gonna love your reaction

[@nondetection8882]

Wow. Really excited to hear your analysis for the next 2 pieces.

[@cinderheat]

So happy you've done this - but what a tease! We need screech and violet's tales! I said it on your Hi Ren reaction its great to see you geek out to some of the more technical parts - cant wait for the next two!

[@musicmasterdylan3000]

You're a real one knox, thanks for whatcha do.

[@diagorm6254]

I always love the parts in this trilogy where you hear the sirens in the background. Its almost like they're lending themselves to the atmosphere for him.

[@nataliemarshall7158]

Woah Dude! I have lost count of how many reaction videos I’ve watched and you are the Only one (reactors and subs alike) to have picked up on the sleep and escape mirror writing! (I think that’s what you called it?) and of course without you I probably wouldn’t have picked it up either. I also loved your review of Hi Ren, that’s when I subscribed to you, you had awesome insights into that one too. I’m old enough to be your (and REN’s mother) and I really appreciate your teaching me about rhythm, rap and music so eloquently, thank you 🙏

[@IratePuffin]

I’ve so been looking forward to this!!

[@nickf2000ss]

you have to watch Screech Tale next and then Violets Tail, has to be in that order, mindblowing

[@jenjensage7242]

Knox left me hangin’ on the edge of my seat 😯. Can’t wait for the next tale of the story. I am eagerly anticipating the next two (Screch, then Violet). Not gonna spoil anything, just anxiously excited. Take care Knox ✌🏻❤️😊

[@Mathitheburger]

Hey man. Many thanks for your explanation of all double meanings etc. I watched most of your videos about UK music. You have really unique way how to describe and make song reactions.

[@rexduffy7881]

Great appreciative analysis of an outstanding talented artist.

[@MrPeejart]

I know that you know that I know that you know that there are 3 parts to this and you're gonna do each separately. Fair enough. Lucky for all, you're good at what you do!

[@StingnB]

I like your work. Also like Ren's. Wish both of u the best of luck in the world

[@Сарра-с4с]

Thanks Knox, great detailed analysis! but i want to see the whole story🙏

[@NickG1010]

Loved the reaction Knox, interesting to see the way you disect this from a writers perspective and see how he portraits the picture in our heads making this a really hard feld song. Hope you also check the other ones as this trilogy is really a full story worth it ❤️

[@ricksurratt9034]

Great reaction I spent the last four days watching videos and reactions. It’s been quite a ride.

[@jcminiman]

Keep going Knox, this is a trilogy… you still have Screech and Violet’s tale to review… you have only scratched the surface!!

[@daviecleland9698]

Been waiting for this

[@dailyreader9263]

Shouting at my phone, 'You need to know what happened to Screech and then react to Violets Tale.' Your lyric breakdowns are the best

[@anticafo]

So glad I tracked this break down Knox, you're the best! Many reactors do appreciate it on emotional level, which is beautiful to see, but have very little to say about the technical, lyrical aspects - you're the best! Such a pleasure to watch, can't believe I missed these reactions to the trilogy, but hey, really enjoying them now!

[@michaelgoyettemusic]

This is part of a trilogy…..2 is Screech’s Tale and 3 is Violet’s Tale

[@TheRigo00]

OH! How I have Waited for u to react to this!

[@schwarzjms]

I watched this trilogy of Ren's and Hi Ren so many times and have watched so many reaction videos from musical professionals. While other's often talk over my head about what key he's in or what he's doing stylistically, this is all stuff beyond my limited knowledge. What I love about your channel is that you're easy to understand, or perhaps you explain better what you're talking about. You break down rhyme schemes that I don't realize are there, to me, it just sounds good, but you explain why it sounds good in a way I feel like anyone could understand. And you point out things that I haven't seen any other reaction reviewer point out, that are in plain sight, such as the "escape" part of the song. Love your channel!

[@jayeshleman480]

Another amazing reaction to another amazing poem/song. I definitely agree that you are the most perceptive reactor. Your intellect is also impressive very happy to have found you. Ren has given me so much. Thanks for everything Knox and God bless

[@acradic]

You did an amazing reaction. I am really enjoying your commentary. Thanks for helping to break it down and show me an even greater appreciation for the artform.

[@laurelhager8495]

Your reactions are “right on target, so direct.

[@jodaid]

Look forward to the rest of the trilogy knox. As always, love the breakdown you do

[@anthonyainsworth142]

Just a thanks for your reactions 👍 I was just hoping to see your last of the trilogy of REN Violets tale? Need you take on the ending cheers! Keep up the good work md I'll keep watching 👊

[@jymbeau3633]

Awesome reaction, I think you’re amongst the best reactors/analysts to hip hop that I’ve seen, you really understand and break-down the technical aspects instead of just freaking out with enjoyment. I wondered if you could hear a shadow of “Regulators” in Screeches theme? Connecting a violent end to a night on the town? ‘You gotta be handy with the steel’? I’m sure you can draw better parallels than I can…?

[@Chris1LFC]

Jenny's then Screech and finally Violet's tale in that order. Masterpiece.

[@cherylrobbins715]

Awesome analysis!

[@aimeekeel]

I saw Ren call it “Bardcore” on another video, ani just can’t get it out of my head. So apt.

[@RavenNationIII]

Gotta do screech and violets tale in one vid. Should've done all 3 in one video. Hits harder

[@ubtrippn6202]

Great reaction! I’m a fan of his and he is in my playlist as well as you knox!

[@OPoivariini]

You have to react to Ren's "Money game part 2". It's a bit similar to what you've already listened to from him but is my personal favorite lyrically and flow-wise. So I recommend you listen to it if you've liked what you've heard from him

[@sabijea]

so now you have to deliver the two other tales !!!!

[@reddyleigh4490]

Knox Hill, you are very intelligent. I could tell that before on another reaction you did because of your extensive knowledge on subjects mentioned in songs that most people probably wouldn't know. I see it now in how you catch certain intricacies of the song and the transitions. I just wanted to say that it's cool that you embrace both your artistic side and the intelligent side. On a side note, Idk if your real name is Knox or not, but it's a great name. We have some Knoxes in our family also and it isn't often you see it. Anyway, thanks for what you do. I think you're alright! 😁

[@reddyleigh4490]

Oh yea, and Ren is awesome so thanks for helping him.

[@sheenadees2701]

So psyched to see this I was wondering if you would get to this did you ever get to Samson's Nancy video? 🤣🤣

[@melissawinstead8848]

Wait til you do Screechs😲 and Violets Tale😢 It's on a whole new level. Peace and love always until there is no more!😊❤

[@padigernon7838]

U shuda done the trilogy!!! Damn

[@maxdax1966]

Check out The Big Push Ren was part of a rock band seen busking in Brighton

[@mattl5752]

Please please please do screeches tale and violets tale!!! It completes the story man you will not regret it!!! Love your reactions homie!!!!

[@TheHoodedKnight]

Now listen to Screech’s tale, then violets! It’s a trilogy. Need to listen in that order!

[@scottrhodes5234]

Ren posted on a reaction video and called his style: Bardcore. I think it's a good name for it.

[@Mika-qp9hw]

Yayyyy another Ren reaction 🥳

[@stevoug]

Hi Knox love your content and breakdowns, you see & hear more than some others. If you want something different from Ren listen too the hunger (fast spit) & What you want (beastie boys inspired) Also it's funny you said you should chuck him some money as he sounds like he's busking, that's what his early stuff is, he was a busker, check that stuff out, glad you're on the Ren train, he is a special artists. Keep up your great work 😎👍

[@janknuno6033]

This is a bit late but there are 3sings that I would love to see your reaction too . They are 'Ocean' 'Humble' and 'Ready for You. ' In each of these songs, there are wonderful moments where his voice just soars. Thank you for your attention to this unbelievably talented individuals

[@karenmccabe2167]

Speaking of busking - check out some of his busking videos with his band, The Big Push. Absolutely fantastic stuff. Can't wait for your Screech and Violet's tales!

[@jameslowther9792]

Knox , great reaction but the tale has three parts that need a full reaction because they all interact with each other

[@Rookslife]

I can deffo hear some artic monkeys influence in his songs. This guys is genius. Pure genius.

[@itseclipse0876]

Hey Knox you gotta listen to Rens songs, violet's tale, screech's and sick boi! They are all bangers from him and highly suggest. (Also love the content)

[@MegsD79]

back to rewatch

[@martinlayden6731]

Please finish the trilogy. There is also screeches tale which comes next followed by the conclusion of violets tale

[@habaz7838]

"let's see if their paths cross" ...

[@michielvanwyngaarden]

Ren is something else

[@llchristensen77]

Not me checking everyday to see if you've done the other parts yet. 😅

[@Sniflet]

Ren - Genesis. Another side of the genius.

[@jw1289]

You cannot leave it like this. You need to do Screeches Tale followed by Violets Tale, they are part of the same story. (As his industrious followers have already said).

Am I the only one who thinks that "Sick Boi" is a Banger? Knox should react to it🙏🏼

[@ShondaLouisianaMama]

You have to do Screech’s tale and Violet’s tale as well… Please

[@ThirdVAZE]

@knox hill there is a whole three part story of songs this one

[@woodywoodman2319]

Don't think people realize just how difficult that is to play one harmony, whole humming a totally different one!!

[@DwarfsRBest]

Dude, your appreciation for his bars are on another level. He will have multiple threads going, all laid across each other, at layered intervals, that aren't clear until after multiple listens. The way you pick up on them is crazy, but I guarantee there are more that we all have still missed, lol. How is this dude Shakespeare, Eminem, and Django Reinhardt all at the same time? Can someone please explain this to me?

[@lussacmomin6178]

You should have react to.. Screech and violets tale there was a video three in 1

Has Knox reacted to Love Music trilogy yet?

PLEASE text to the whole trilogy!!!

[@shahzaibkhan6556]

Bro you've gotta react to the whole shit. This ain't fair. If you do react to the whole story, start from the start!!

[@calummair4105]

can you do one slice by complete ?

[@cas9065]

Oh, but please don't let us hang without Screech and then Violet's Tale. Violet is the crown but only makes sense after the other two. You really won't regret it. Knox, if you see this. Look out for repetitions as connections through all three.

Appreciate the recommendation & support brother!

[@lynette.]

Your description of him as a minstrel is perfect his storytelling is incredible.

[@KnoxHill]

Haha I do think it’s fitting

[@FloraMHorta]

@@KnoxHill The word Minstrels has, at least in the UK, a racist connotation though, so I would've gone with the word Bard instead, but it's understandable. hashtag - Not all minstrels! xD

[@christyheffernan1248]

Well#bardcore after you see these 3.

[@lynette.]

@FloraMHorta Minstrel was a strolling player who told the people's stories . Only racist conatation comes from USA in UK and Europe in medieval times it was illegal to beg so blackening the face was a cover for your identity.

[@FooDogDat]

Ren's dad Martin Gill bought him a small beat up guitar when he was 8 years old, Ren took it everywhere with him and taught himself to play. His mother Hannah and Martin took Ren to many music festival including Renaissance festivals, between those and the tradition of British pantomime theatre likely inform some of Ren's story telling. The guitar intros very much give the feel of a Medieval bard telling a story or the music you'd hear for a TV or film at the start of a quest.

[@katiemcteague]

I am a 68 year old woman who has never enjoyed any kind of rap music and avoid it as much as possible. Mostly because of the rapid pace, I just can’t follow the dialogue and very often I don’t understand what’s being said so it’s not enjoyable. And then I came across Ren on YT and was immediately enamored with his talent. I would still struggle with the lyrics here and there because of diminished hearing but you really helped make it more accessible to me by breaking it down, repeating the lyrics that I may have missed and making it a lot more meaningful. I really appreciate that because it helped me enjoy Ren’s artistry to the fullest. Keep up the great work. 😊

[@TheViralInfekT]

Nice. This means we get to see you dissecting Screech's and then Violet's tale also. It is a must. Those three belong together 😁

[@KnoxHill]

Maybe 😉

[@mikeoxsmal69]

@@KnoxHill just do violets last, trust me

[@seana2646]

@@KnoxHill What a dissservice to yourself if you didn't complete the journey with the next two parts. Ren is very much a bard & most rappers could learn a thing or two from one of those.

[@TheViralInfekT]

@@KnoxHill Screech's tale is the direct continuation of this story and Violet bringst it to to its conclusion. If you don't react to it then at least view these videos for yourself. It is absolutely worth the watch/listen. Brilliant Storytelling anf Acting on full display. Though I would really love to hear your thoughts regarding those songs 😁

[@ActuallyAcce]

Been waiting for this one. Hopefully you cover more of Ren's stuff. I'd advocate for Genisis and sickboi.

[@ActuallyAcce]

Ah I don't know how you had the restraint not to react to the whole trilogy. Would love to see you finish the story.

[@death2foolz182]

Highly recommend doing the video he has with all three of the trilogy in one video, you got two more sections to watch, and when it's delivered at once it has the best effect

[@skeeter3361]

I hope you'll react to a lot of Ren's stuff. The way you react to songs, understand intricacies should be very interesting given how complex and carefully built Ren's songs are. At the very least, let us have the whole trilogy. And if you still enjoy Ren and - hopefully views are giving you further incentive to react- we could maybe see your take on pieces like Money Game part 1 & part 2, Chalk Outline, Genesis, Power, and maybe some of his retakes which are just amazing. One little comment to the song and reaction: You caught it right away, how Ren integrated the "escape" into the frame of the song, and in this trilogy he does a lot of similar narrative building intricacies, but I also love that in Jenny's Tale, he has a middle reference/forshadowing, when Screech threatens Jenny and says "or soon you'll be free". Which for me is such a clever little spin. It is basically the same as escaping, but using a different expression as the line is part of Screech's narration, whereas the "chorus" is part of Jenny's. Anyway, awesome reaction, it's always fun following along you as you explore music.

[@cyzeal]

Jenny's tale is the first part of a trilogy, gotta listen to the full story to really witness Ren's masterful storytelling here 🙂

[@lonewarrior6633]

It’s a trilogy. Best to all three in one hit. Don’t worry though Knox, loads did this mistake but made up for it 😂

[@patrykstachowicz]

Janny and Screech (Full) - I get getting the views by doing Jenny's, Screech's and Violet's separately but it diminishes the storytelling masterpiece this trilogy is when hearing it whole o_O

[@gregbeard6057]

Defo need to react to Screech's Tale and then Violet's Tale IN THIS ORDER! 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@viracocha03]

Check out "Humble" by Ren if you have not heard it yet. Its not as much a story but its one of his best, in my opinion. Screech's tale and Jennys Tale are great too, all 3 go together. Money Game 1, 2 and 3 are great tracks too. He truly has a phenomenal back catalogue. Also, his busking band is called The Big Push do absolutely phenomenal covers and some really good originals too. I forgot Genesis is a great tune, Children Of The Moon, How To Be Me, they are all great tunes, shit he has very little that are not good.

[@i_am_jafo]

Bro! Much love. You’ve gotta do “Chalk Outlines” by Ren and Chinchilla

Ren is a minstrel, troubadour and bardic poet. Hitting our souls with his lyrical and poetic vibes. Waking up our souls to live an authentic life. Great reactions and break down of the raps and beats.

[@CasperLD]

Yeah you have to do Screechs tale next then Violets tale in that order. Don't read much more comments before you do those reactions. It's worth it.

[@erikktrapane863]
