TAKE CONTROL | Ren- Life Is Funny (REACTION!!!)

[@mmmelli]

Man you deserve your flowers for the way you break down Ren's songs: 💐

[@Shiroar]

I’m not sure how funny life is, but it’s definitely funny watching you try to deal with Ren suddenly going off on his word wizardry 😂

[@TheBizzybujo]

You might be a beast at pop culture trivia!! Your knowledge is impressive man!! This is one of the reason why I like yours reactions so much!! Keep it up man 🤘

[@parkskur]

tysm!!

[@arielbussart1305]

Every line is deeper than most understand, especially if not broken down and just leisurely listened to!

[@darkmatter6714]

Lotus is also a sports car brand with a philosophy of producing driving purity for the skilled driver - no aids our electronics

[@MsCheesemonster13]

My go-to reactor for Ren’s music 💛

[@parkskur]

I appreciate you MsCheesemonster!! 🙏

[@gavinwilson2071]

I think he's shouting out the Lotus sports car. No frills use your skills.

[@terjeness5942]

Great breakdown👍💯 U really pick up things in Ren's songs👍

[@combabus]

Tony Hawk made videos where he'd drive around giving out skateboard decks to kids who did kick flips.

[@farfromheaven29]

Great reaction and breakdown 😊 You picked up on things that I didn't even realize lol much love ✌️

[@parkskur]

thanks heaven!!

[@NanaM1984]

Great reaction! You're catching stuff other people miss. Really enjoy your reference to other Ren songs as well! ❤❤❤

[@CrimzonFangz]

I'm honestly surprised you haven't done sick boi pt. 2 yet. You are on point with everything. Enjoy the journey. Also check out Electric Callboy when you get a chance. You won't be disappointed

[@CirTap]

😂 you're such a frellling nerd to pick up and connect references from all over the place ! 👍🏻 hedron collider, kendrik, cobain, rod+tony... the image however is not by m.c. escher -- too trivial a perspective 🙂

[@jolinevdk]

Interestingly, I recognized the line about the surgical incision in the middle of the brain after reading the Sam Harris book you recommended: Waking Up - A Guide To Spirituality Without Religion. I don't know if that's what he references, but the "Wake up" message is in line with what he's saying.

[@parkskur]

i think that was in the back of my mind! How are you liking the book? have you finished it?

[@jolinevdk]

@@parkskur I finished it! I did enjoy it, but I also felt I wasn't the exact target demographic. It felt more geared towards people with a sciency mind who needed convincing that it's okay to think about spirituality, and how to approach that from an academic lens. I'm not a scientist and more comfortable with the non-scientific approach to spirituality. Having said that, I thought the scientific approach to what and where the "self" is, was fascinating.

[@pepinosylvie8887]

Great reaction and awesome break down man, as always 👍 Thank you for reacting to Life is funny, I've asked you so many times 😂 Such a fun moment, thanks 😘

[@pointlesslab4179]

Your reactions are excellent- thanks for the thoughtful insights

[@mattcavanagh5701]

Your vast knowledge (skateboarding, Escher, science, etc.) makes for a great reaction. I’m starting to think you are better than Knox on breaking down bars!

[@parkskur]

wow, huge compliment! thank you!🙏❤️

[@perfectkismet]

I think I've only ever seen one reactor get the "Say my name, say my name" just before the Kurt Cobain line. He sang the hook for one of Destiny's Child's big songs. "Destiny's Child" in the middle of a song contemplating fate vs free will.

[@majbrat]

Ya it always get missed

[@oistroplex]

And Nirvana had a song called On A Plain

[@DianaKey-lg3zh]

Wow first time hearing this it sucks that we just found him and I am glad I found you for this rabbit hole

[@JoRiceRenegade4Eva]

Wonderful reaction & break down again. So glad you got to this one. I love it ❤

[@mrsainsburys1]

Loved it, thank you Sir, catch you soon 🙏🐊❤️🦉👍

[@samsmith3055]

If it wasn't for you I wouldn't understand some of meanings and it's crazy how smart he really is with his music !!! Your so smart dude !! Pleasure as always watching your reactions !!

[@ThereWasATime]

My man going for the lines sharp like a Wolverine Logan!

[@credibleink]

Great reaction 🔥. There was also the ‘say your name’ bar which is a song by Destiny’s Child - are you a child of destiny?? Love this track. Looking forward to your next one 😀👍

[@upnorth7366]

The BEST Ren reactor. Love your breakdowns❤️🔥

[@parkskur]

yooo tysm!🙏❤️

[@Tucapps-Ren-ergade]

Rodney is my skate idol. King of flatland skating.

[@planetag310]

Lotus is a flower, but it's also a fast sports car - just like the speed of Ren's bars. Fund fact: the word 'ren' means lotus flower in Japanese.

[@majbrat]

❤❤❤ Love this one ❤❤❤

[@Froschfischchen]

Thank you 🙂

[@Doobbie420]

Another masterful breakdown 🎉🎉

[@DDWJR]

🎉

[@jenniferboe]

I learn so much from your reactions.

[@iamsquatty]

Is Lotus also a type of fighting style? Also with the kurt cobain bar.... saying "i bang like cobain" could also be referncing kurts struggle with injecting heroin. Sometimes thats referred to as "banging" (using a needle). Im all to aware of this from personal experience 💜

[@rwsimmons]

Yes. In some forms of traditional Chinese martial arts, there is a "Lotus Kick," which is a graceful, spinning kick that mimics the unfolding of a lotus flower.

[@yonahgrossman7319]

Lotus is a mixed martial arts style.

[@enoice75]

Rens name meaning is Lotus 🪷

[@Stewart-m7i]

You find things most miss especially the science Bars. Ren always gets people talking. Another great one.

[@arielbussart1305]

I met Tony Hawk, he's cool AF

You always make funny faces with fast rap - you should check out his rap god clip. It's not the Eminem rap god and not really even a song, but I think you'd like it. I think it's on someone else's page.

[@lanaschaf]

Another great reaction with so much details! ❤ If you want to see how incredible precise Ren is even with fast rapping, watching this great compilation by Ren Not Ren: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKbUfJ2Hi9KjfdUfeature=shared

[@CALLMECRAZY69]

Hey, great reaction video, glad I suggested it. :) Gotta check out Dominos and Born in the 90's, first is a bit heavy, second is a fun one. Cheers!
