Surprised you haven't done the "Fred again mashup" or "Back on 74" as you really get to hear him sing rather than rap. Awesome vid as usual.

I love how you pick up on all the instrumentals. I do wish you would react to Ren's Back on 74 because if you've not heard it yet, I believe you would really appreciate it and I would love to hear your analysis of Ren's singing vocal range and the backup singers.

I guess you don't really know anger until someone goes FULL ORCHESTRAL on your a**! LOL This was epic cinematic evil - much like the use of _'Oh Fortuna'_ in the movie Omen! I thought that the hidden 'chorus line' audience watching it all unfold from the darkness, was a beautiful nod to public nature of internet beefs. SO well done! Ren portrays his raw anger and frustration so adeptly that it translates immediately. This piece is adrenal... absolutely visceral... and I'm sure he must have got huge catharsis out of it! We get to see yet another side of Rens performance - and once again, he absolutely nails it! Kujo, if you're watching man, it's time to reach out and repair this. You just broke one of the nicest most upright guys in music. Words have failed so far, so Rens *showing* you the frustration he feels - but, if I know Ren, one genuine word from you could still fix this. Do the right thing man. Let's put this to bed.

You are so correct on your opinion of RENs talent, vision and cinematic prowess. He and his team really could and should make a full length feature movie.

[@wild_lee_coyote]

For those who don’t know. Ren bought a beat from Kujo through Beatstars for the song Sick Boi. The contract was with his publishers and didn’t include any royalties from the master or streaming services. The Kujo wanted to get paid for his beat, but instead of talking to Ren about it he put a copyright strike on Sick Boi. Then there was a long back and forth between Ren, Kujo, and his girlfriend. Kujo was wanting a cut of the master and retroactive payments. Ren refused because of the idea that he had purchase unlimited use of the beat. Ren even went so far as to offer to do a colab with Kujo and split the proceeds just to resolve the issue. Kujo refused and the discussions deteriorated. So Ren has taken down Sick Boi, and will rerelease it with his own beats, and now is releasing a new song called Kujo Beat Down. There is more to this story and Ren tells his side of it in a very long video on his channel.

[@Mufffyy]

You missed Kujo being chased for an unlicensed beat in his mix But good summary

[@claremiller9979]

Thank you for your summary, I haven't watched the long video (clearly) and only picked up that the dispute was about a beat but this is helpful. Cheers mate.

[@ulbuilder]

​@@MufffyyYes! It seems that Kujo used an unlicensed sample from a choir in the beat. The choir went after Kujo for royalties then Kujo went after Ren. Now you know the significance of the choir in this beat down!

[@bunnyshredderrl8689]

I love that you love the musical arraingments on this one! Given the subject matter of the song, Ren specifically composed the beats for this one himself!

[@TheMrfluffi]

It's more complex than that. If what Kujo claims is true (and given he has a lawyer I have to imagine is working on percentage of settlement there must be at least some real or technicality validity) Ren may have violated the contract months ago with how it was uploaded to KZbin (Ren even admits this in his video as an honest mistake) and either that or the selections/paperwork Ren did might be why Beatstars isn't paying Kujo and why he's spent months trying to chase this with Ren's lawyer (which, despite Ren saying you should have reached out to me, I know I would reach out to celebrities representatives first and once in talks with them would assume they are passing on details to their client). In those circumstances I can understand wanting to renegotiate the contract to compensate for months of hassle, and that the promise that sometime in the future we will do a colab doesn't help with expenses right now.

[@Mhantrax]

The string arrangement on this, Elizabeth, oh my God, it slays me, I'm with you!

[@TheHellnfire]

I love how reactors are bringing context to this video so there can be no doubt as to Ren’s authenticity & motive behind expressing his anger at this situation. As always- wonderful reaction, bringing our attention to some of the musical elements we wouldn’t otherwise notice because we are intertwined in the drama- the lyrics etc. ❤

[@PHOENIXDARKFIRE5000]

There’s a part of that 30 minute video that did about this where he’s talking about bringing the song down from KZbin and you can see him visually getting choked up he can’t maintain eye contact with the camera. His voice starts to crack and you can hear the lump in his throat. It’s also the expression of his face to the point where he’s almost in tears. It’s heartbreaking to know what this guy has been through in his life having also suffered myself with severe health issues to have something taken from you would suck so bad, I feel for Ren. Deeply.

[@NinaCohen-dl4hm]

Thank you for explaining the beef about Sick Boi, cause I didnt have thr patience to plunge through the drama. So it all boils down to over-reaching and envy over Ren's genius and staggering originality, eloquence and passion. Im proud Ren figured out how to 'jump over' this theiving pygmy and rendef him irrelevant. Now this musical response from Ren is the BEST retribution possible. What do his fan can themselves: Renegades? Well, that tracks. I'm SO grateful I stumbled into Ren's World. Great analysis, Elizabeth.

For someone who has been dealing with chronic anxiety attacks and now my daughter is suffering from them, and holding her up through them.. This is the perfect theme for the anxiety attack that has you shaking through every cell of your body and your heart banging out of your chest and your throat tightening and you are just screaming at yourself to overcome the control it has on you.. When you need to scream into the heavens PLEASE release me from this constriction. While wearing a mask around everyone saying, "I'm Fine".

Ooh, the strings! So glad that you commented on the arrangement. 😍

[@Freesnuggz]

Adore you, btw. I just love how he is vocally, instrumentally, lyrically, physically, illustrating that humans are also animals. easy to forget. there is a primal inescapable piece of being a human animal no matter how skilled and determined we are to exist beyond it. There are just moments where, time after time of trying to be that "person," just ends with unbridled frustration that needs to be seen/expressed etc....it is immensely necessary and cathartic.

[@henrydenner5448]

16:28 - The best artists find strength in vulnerability. So true ❤

[@NoBeard-v8b]

Where in Hi Ren the positive side takes control at the end, this time the positive side just had to say 'F*** it'. Sometimes you just have to let that bad boy out whether you want to or not. I thought the condescending pat on the head at the end was priceless. Legally, Ren was sold a broken product. Trying to then demand more money from it just beggars belief. I think he's lucky that Ren is a nice guy because this could have been a lot worse. Like Hi Ren, another piece of flawless performance art with spectacular direction and filming. Making something positive again from a dark experience - luckily for ****, that's Ren's M.O. or ****'d be counting the cost in court.

[@juliethorne8050]

IT'S TODAY! Argh! Looking forward to your reaction, Elizabeth! ❤

[@carcolevan7102]

Elizabeth, the string piece you are thinking of is Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki's "Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima" which he wrote in 1960. Its original title was 8'37" (a reference to John Cage's famous silent piece, 4'33", which had premiered in 1952). Then Penderecki changed the title to "Tren" which means "Threnody" in English. And then he changed the title again to the title it retains today "Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima", though he's clear that this title came after the piece was already composed and that the music was not directly inspired by or directly a response to the bombing of Hiroshima. Whatever you call it, it's a great piece that evokes horror and anger better than most. You have a sharp ear to make the connection between the strings in Ren's song and Penderecki's classic so quickly.

[@spaceman9599]

Oooooh, Ren isn't playing here! Incredible cathartic channelling of his frustration. Thanks for continuing to support this once in a generation genius.

[@kellylostaglia40]

I've been watching these reactions all day and the support for Ren is incredible. One of the things about life that I find so hopeless is the fact that everywhere you look, evil prospers. I don't mean that in the biblical sense, I mean that everyone says what goes around comes around but I never see it. I just see injustice and people doing shitty things and karma never biting them in the ass. It hurts my heart to see what happened to Ren and this isn't perfect justice, which would have been Kujo never doing the copywrite strike and Kujo taking responsibility for the part he stole from the choir, or even Kujo doing the right thing at any point after. But seeing how Ren handled this from start to finish and seeing how the community has backed Ren and stood by him is a sort of justice. Im so sorry it came to this but it's inspiring to see how Ren took the high road and then poured his pain and anger into his art.

[@McLeod2022]

the high strings change the mood,,, i favor cello but the high notes cut through like a knife. ###I love this channel... it is the first channel that got me hooked onto vocal and production breakdowns and for that, I am forever grateful. *edited for framing my thoughts better - - The start of this... such a calllback to Sick Boi that rolls throughout... and i agree... I love piano and brass, especially when not expected, but strings slay me. They bring such sadness and joy and tension.. though i must say $game#3 was a masterclass on how to use environment and piano and strings and elemental sounds.

[@FunnyFungus]

It amazes me how Ren manages in “Hi Ren” to make his ‘good side’ have a sound of power; of control - even when battling the ‘evil side’. Here the ‘good side’ is all but depleted of energy; it sounds weaker, it sounds less confident. It also shines through when looking at his working the camera; the good side is litterally on the floor about to give up and begging for mercy - hand stretched out like “pause - time out, please!”. - Also Ren makes it so obvious who’s talking by using different themes / different instrumentation depending on who’s talking. It’s communication on a professional level. What amazes me even more is that you can hear how he leaves the “angry side” to a more…”let’s talk serious for a moment” in the end, when he warns Kujo about how this is still him holding back.. Many have pointed out the grunts in the beginning being references to Sick Boi - but he’s changed them from being angry with the world and sort of hopeless frustration - to being more angry and more violent; these grunts are…like a warning; like the growls of an angry dog about to bite.

Your reactions are always my favorite. You have a unique look or should I say listen with music. Shouting out other reactors, supporting Ren in what is right, your positive attitude, it's all what makes you great. Until next time wonderful person, be well.

I love the echo of Hi Ren and this with the internal conversation and the red outfit has got to be his elevated beating heart.

Pretty sure you are an awesome person irl and I respect your knowledge of music a lot. I love hearing and seeing you supporting REN this way ❤

Thanks for supporting Ren! I can't wait to see his video, and I can't wait to see your analysis.

This is so sick theres so much he draws on with this, the breathing from "sick boy" at the beginning going right into "high Ren" with reason trying to argue for the good path but being overpowered by rage and reason literally says it and then the whole thing just goes savage. Just absolutely burns it all down.
