I rember Sam Tompkins saying that Ren will adapt to the the person or people he is workinf with. He has a charming lack of ego when working with others. In Back on 74 it is the same with the back up singers. Enjoyed your reaction. Thanks. Oh, these 2 have apparently taped another couple collaborations that have not been release yet.

100%. And The Big Push, I think that’s what makes them so good. Groups always say “we don’t have a frontman” but it’s usually bullshit. But if you watch them perform live, Ren is just as happy in front of the mic as he is playing backup while one of the other guys takes lead. And they’re all like that.

As we heard in Hi Ren , learning to soften means that you are less likely to break. Artistically, to be able to bend means that you know when , where , and how to allow yourself adjust in ways that creates space for others. Ren and Chinchilla have a special connection to each other, that includes unconditional trust with music but also with the vulnerability that comes with it. I watched Ren do this from his room, sitting alone on his bed and he wasn’t able to get through to the last part. I feel like their eye contact is saying “ I’ve got you.” Ren and Chinchilla always perform a ‘musical pas de deux’- dancing around and within the melody , with implicit trust. And REN returned and finished the ending. And wrote that he considered not posting it. But then wrote out how overwhelming higher the statistics were for males vs females to commit S because they weren’t taught to, afraid to, or simply shamed to admit they were struggling and reach out for help. He followed with the S hotline. He genuinely doesn’t want anyone to feel the depths of despair that Joe felt that night. This from a man who suffered unrelenting pain for a decade and is still going through it. ❤

Ren is a prime example of someone who knows "the rules" of music well enough that he knows how to break them to make it even better.

I think he also said he doesn't know so much of the theory that it would tie his hands from doing whatever feels good

Ren & Chinchilla have such an incredible chemistry together. If you haven't done it already, check out Chinchilla - Fingers (Live for Hunger TV)

The smile on your face is all of us as we listen to this song.

I’m so glad you said he holds his own with her. I’ve heard people say she outshines him here but I’m completely fascinated at how well-matched he is. Such a good one!

It’s the emotions in their voices and on their faces for me! Just such passion and commitment and feeling!! Moves me every time! ❤❤❤

I love that you shout out other reactors, this needs to be a bigger thing. Thank you for doing this!!

This is one of my favorite ren and friends collab.... its not only beautiful but also pretty much everyone can resonate with it since we have all forgotten how to be ourselves at one point or another 😊💜💜

Truer words have never been spoken 💯

Ren is so good at using discordant notes and dissonance to evoke unease. You know before they say a word that this will be haunting because of those little jagged edges, like pins left in a silk scarf.

Those discordant or a bit out of tune notes in an otherwise harmony invoke a haunting emotion. I recall several top voice coach reactors say that they tell their students basically not to ask to be taught some vocal mechanics to create a certain emotion, or to say when doing an analysis and noting facial muscles, expressions, or mouth configuration, that it is the emotion you feel that performs the mechanics, not the other way around. Then you have to be able to do that in a performance without the emotion taking you away from the performance. Doing this in a duet just seems next level. You will see this in Chinchilla's performances as they are very much on a theme of taking back control and self-empowerment. The emotion is expressed audibly, visually, and lyrically. She was the quiet shy girl growing up who hid behind her mother's skirt when introduced to others. She says her outfits and nails are her armor, it transforms Daisy into Chinchilla. She is the 'Violet' that grew thorns.

Ren said Daisy is like a sister to him, it's a mind meld.

At all times, Ren seems to be playing at enjoying life. He acts the fool on clips and his streaming, his Collab's are games he plays at how much he can compliment the other, his video's are made to be different from others, hmm done that now for something different, gotta keep all the ships afloat on this rising tide of mine.. . Such a great human and musician

Rumor is two more duets coming soon. Chinchilla was on one of those prime time contestant shows singing an old classic her way.

Thank you so much for the shoutout!!! ☺ Just subscribed, but can't watch the full video as we haven't heard this song yet haha. Keep up the great work! And thanks to @gwynzyful for letting us know:)

I love your reactions!! Keep them coming. Chinchilla is amazing in her own right. With Ren, the two are magic!! I love them separately, and as a "group." I believe the idea of working together is more like working "united." They feel it together and it's majestic.

I appreciate you, thanks for being a reactor.🙏✌️🤙

Musical siblings both pouring their souls into the performance and in perfect harmony - or dissonance when needed 😂

Try not to comment too much on KZread but your empathy/understanding & discernment over the Ren songs & videos compelled me to express admiration for your reactions. Huge high five from me 😁

this song is medicine for the heart !

I love to see you smiling while listening to this beautiful song❤ Much ❤ from Germany

Ren’s voice always floats such emotion through a song - I think that is one of the things I notice the most when he does a collab. Someone below mentioned the little jagged edges being the bits that make his music shine so brightly. When combined with Chinchilla's melodic riffs, it is a powerful combination. I do love what you are doing with lifting up new channels - you are a true RENegade, my friend!

I cannot think of a bigger compliment than to be called a true RENegade. thank you!

Discordant notes similar to the sound of Tori Amos . It’s haunting . My god this is mind blowing . Incredible

Something special - glad to have found this artist and his many collaborators. Your reactions are spot on. Ta.

His art touches your deepest core... He is a pure soul with a talent beyond any words. He has changed my life and I'm sure will change many others. I'm so thankful to the universe that I found this amazing human being ❤️

You are such a great reactor and obviously a super kind human- thank you!

Yep, Chinchilla is now added to the list!

REN always 🔥🔥. Please try some of Chinchilla's earlier catalogue like ELEMENT'S or ONE TIME or FABULOUS or TERMS AND CONDITIONS or LOCKDOWN GET DOWN or TRIGGER or LITTLE GIRL GONE REQUIEM Live 🎵🎶🍯🤌🔥🙏✌️🐝🍀

I really like Chinchillas song "LITTLE GIRL GONE", it's a banger for sure. That's how you do a payback for domestic violence. 😅 A reactor said "OMG she's even more crazy 🤪 than Ren". I can see how they fit so well together. 😂😂 Best regards from Norway 🇳🇴

I love the look on your face watching this two sing, that was my face too when I first listened to this, great job Turk ✨ Huggs from Guatemala 🇬🇹

If you haven’t done so yet if you have time please give Chinchilla’s solo stuff a try. She’s a force and her songs are brilliant. I suggest Fingers Live, Little Girl Gone the official video and Cut You Off. I think you’d get a kick out of her songs, her wardrobe and her singing plus they are dark songs that make you smile. When she sings you know she’s not taking any prisoners and they aren’t as emotionally difficult as this.

I loved every bit of this reaction, it’s a favourite. Appreciate your insight on the music :)

Wonderful to follow your journey into Ren’s and now Chinchilla’s musical archives. This live performance is off the charts amazing! And yes, Ren calls her his musical sibling. I suggest anything from Ren’s Demos Volume 2 or the Big Push, based on your commentary so far. And, I think you will find that Ren seems to have incredible chemistry with everyone he works with. He is an absolute chameleon You’ve only seen the tip of the iceberg! 💔❤️‍🩹❤️

Wow! Thanks for bringing this one to my attention. Holy Smokes!!!!! Yes, makes us lesser musicians and artists just want to hang it up. No contest.

I found DNA yesterday! For Joe is as stunning as I forgot how to be me.

As far as I’ve heard I’ve not heard a bad Ren song. This is about how Ren felt in the days, months and years after losing Joe. He has carried immense guilt since that night and he lost himself.

Another great reaction, one you have to do when you´ve already heard about Joe - like you, to make it even ´stronger´. Greetings from Belgium.

Mesmorizing[sic]. Neither minds sharing the spotlight. Soulmates.

This was another reference to his friend Joe.

Hoping to see some reactions to Chinchilla. Fingers Live, Little Girl Gone live great ones to try. ❤

Chinchilla rabbit hole? Nice! Go for Fingers (live for HungerTV) first!

Probably my request for Ren Sickboi, but that one just hits for me

I've often said the same thing when commenting on Ren's new releases. I've ran out of ways to say he's amazing. I truly like every song. And I LOVE the majority of his songs. Pretty much the only song that I've found that I didn't like that much is Satellite Girl. It's an alright song, but I usually skip it when it comes up. But maybe because I"m biased by hearing Ren say that he doesn't like that song lol. Chinchilla is so much like Ren where she's so emotive and willing to put it all out there. He calls her his musical sibling. It's apparent why. This is the type of song that should be on the Grammys and those award type shows. But since he's independent, that will never happen.

Looking forward for your reaction to Frecked Angels and For Joe You would love Chinchilla-Fingers Live

For me, in terms of older stuff, it's What Went Wrong (part 1 & 2) that never gelled for me, and then there's a bunch of tracks off Sick Boi with no video that also don't do it for me (often it's a tone of voice in his rapping, or too much "I'm doing a bunch of naughty lyrics we're supposed to laugh at,") - I don't begrudge anyone enjoying any of those tracks, his lyricism/wordplay/rapping is amazing. It's just not stuff I find myself wanting to re-listen to, and mostly I don't even watch reactions to those tracks. And then that's in contrast to Everything Else This Man Has Ever Done, which has decimated my lifelong list of faves and placed a ridiculous number of tracks at the very top with a ridiculous number of his other tracks rating incredibly highly.

Check out Little Girl Gone by Chinchilla!!!!

Also, I love the shoutout to @dna2001, I love them! And that's a great concept, sets your channel apart for sure 😊❤

You have to react to Chinchilla 1:5 Live.

What I admire about Ren (amongst other things) is that he's such an unselfish artist. His performances with Chinchilla and the Big Push show how he is happy to let his co-artists shine.
