There aren't many humans that cant relate in some way to struggling through what seems like a hell specifically designed for us.

The whole money games !❤ He inspired me to do a small act of kindness the other day and I ended up leaving money near the sink in each bathroom at work with an anonymous note saying " Hoping to brighten someone's day!hope this inspires you to do the same! Take it!" I want to be more thoughtful now.He is quite an influence! PS This absolutely would be great as an acoustic Ren!!❤And Knox, DEFINITELY Ren and Sam Tompkins!!❤ blind eyed or latch!!

Ren isn't just a literal Bard, he's one of the best musical mimics since Freddie Mercury. Someone who can just listen to other genre's and tempos and schemes and says: "I can do that, I can make that better." Look at ALL the genres Freddie mastered from country to opera, and Ren is on the same musical genius wavelength.

Freddie Mercury? Really? That’s a little extreme 🙄 Ren does not have Freddie’s generational voice. He’s a solid rapper - but one of the best in the genre of hip hop? Not even close. He’s much better when he’s singing and in the more reflective/melodic lane. I’m sure Ren superfans will burn me for this but I’m a non-bias outsider who doesn’t drink the kool-aid. Is he a great artist? 100% But Freddie Mercury level. No. Sorry.

Ren's success is down to talent and hard work, refusing to give up even when things were going against him, he has an incredible drive to succeed. He comes across as an authentic, caring character with a great sense of humour and has a magnetic stage presence. He has a great team of talented friends around him, relationships that he has nurtured for years and is very social media savvy.

You're spot on! we all know he's a creative genius, but he's also extremely hard working and that is a major factor in his current success. For example I think sometimes people like to celebrate his one-takes without realising that he does them over and over again until he's happy with the result.

I've been hooked on Ren since I saw Elizabeth did a reaction/analysis on The Charismatic Voice. Wish I had found him earlier, but I'm glad I did, at least. He is such a rare talent, raw and sincere. Great singer, and an amazing lyricist. Knox Hill and The Charismatic Voice, btw, are my 2 favorite reactors/analyzers on the tubes and are good contributors to spreading Ren to the world, together with Black Pegasus.

Ren's singular story is striking in itself, but it has also shaped the man and the artist. The exuberant energy of youth, together with the insight and maturity of an artist who has experienced more challenges than most people encounter in a lifetime, gives him an creative voice that is truly original, authentic and compelling. He is obviously a very talented musicianship who has had the opportunity to practise his craft more than most; but it is his song-writing that really puts him in a league of his own. He has also internalised a rich palette of influences not only musical, but literary as well - this is a man has read widely, and acquired an astonishing vocabulary that he manages to use without sounding pretentious or contrived. He has a very poetic imagination: the first time I heard 'Hi Ren', I thought of Shakespeare, and the validity of the comparison only increased as I heard more of his songs. He is a very remarkable artist.

For those who don´t know Diazepam is Valium (in the 60ties called ="Mother´s little helper"..there is a 60ties song from the Rolling Stones about it)..an opiate/benzodiazepine...basically Diazipam/Valium is in his chemical composition almost identical with heroine only 1 or 2 molecules are different. But to come off from that drug is way harder than from heroine...and to become addicted/physically dependent happens way faster than heroine Ren´s description about Diazepam is extremly accurate and the vibe of the music and the sounds he uses for describing "the feeling/vibe you´ll get while being on Diazipam" is extremely accurate as well...very cosy and concurrently as if you are infolded in a thick eiderdown quilt = when he sings/calls it "makes you also numb" Usually prescibted when suffering from massive pain, or massive anxiety or during drug treatment as opiate substitute

Diazepam is a benzo and not an opiate. It is used to stave off alcohol withdrawal because it has a similar effect on the brain. It has limited use for opiate addiction and is not used as an opiate substitute, certainly not in the UK. It may be prescribed short term i.e. 7-10 days after an opiate user has stopped taking their opiate substitute. It is very addictive and very difficult to detox from and was widely prescribed in the 60s and 70s.

I agree with your analysis. I also think a factor that a lot of people miss is the amount of work that goes into all of this - he just makes it look easy. The man still practices guitar and piano. He is always working (not even going into all of the admin and promo tasks he's been doing himself all of these years) and has built up a huge catalog with something for almost everyone. What I'm getting at is that when the 'luck' of Hi Ren going viral happened, he was prepared. His writing and performing skills were sharpened and ready to go so he was able pounce on the opportunity when it arose. I take that as a big lesson. You need to be ready so that when an opportunity presents itself, you can seize it. Love you Knox - and the new song as well.

Well said, not just about the song, but about the entire journey. There was so much to discover after that first moment of attention. That kept us busy and the momentum going while the new stuff for the album hit. It is also that we have become a community here in the comments. We recognize each other in strange places and we are building something special. And it is not blind adoration of the worshipped Ren (though I stand by that this is my first cult), but the way we reach out to other good things and people, amongst ourselves, and in enjoying artists like you and Dirt and so many more. It is a way of making music and listening to each other, often from very different sides of the spectrum. Now I am off to support Chinchilla on the Voice.

The relationship and respect you have for Ren is beautiful to see. I’m not the least bit musically minded ( but I do know what I like), so your breakdowns are fascinating to me. I am discovering your work as well, through your reactions. I stumbled across Ren earlier this year and I honestly can’t imagine not hearing him each day. He has managed to tap into the zeitgeist, of the individual, the community and globally. He has the ability to draw you in to the story, lyrically, visually and musically, then send out these little word daggers straight to the heart. Then the message is delivered like a punch to the gut. He can evoke such emotion and feeling from every note, every word, every facial expression. His words in context with his own situation makes them even more poignant and achingly beautiful. I hope his success and continuing popularity doesn’t put too much pressure on him and change how he writes. I hope he keeps his raw honesty, vulnerability and genuine empathy. It’s part of why he is so loved by us all.

Ren manages to put concepts into words "Don't want tomorrow cuz right now I'm golden" is so accurate- when you have the double brain (the demons and the common sense) your common sense recognises that when the valium wears off all the shit comes back and the demons aren't muted anymore- it's one of the reasons it's so easy to get hooked on- just to keep those voices muted and the sharp edges off life.

It amazes me how much my 5 year old daughter literally loves Ren, every single day she asks my wife to play the sick boi album on her way to and home from school. At least one out of my 4 kids has good taste in music :) she also wants a guitar for Xmas and can’t wait for Santa to bring her it and see her learn, and Ren is 100% aspiring her to do so and I love him even more that ❤

Love your reactions and music. Your reaction to Hi Ren was the very first time I heard about him. I instantly fell for his music. Blind eyed is awesome. Would love to hear you react to it. Your song not for sale is fire!!🎧🔥

Knox you HAVE to do Ren and Sam. Blind Eyed, What Went Wrong, and my favorite, them busking with Earned It/Man's World/Fallin'. Can't wait to see your deep dive on those.

Knox, I really love your breakdowns and analysis of Ren's songs. You are definitely on point with so much. Some of what you are saying here reminds of Lou Reed's "ode" to heroin in Perfect Day, which was always a "love song" of a destructive kind.
