Wow. Listening to your comments regarding how he would top Hi Ren makes me feel confident that Ren is the genius we all thought he was. He grabbed the world's attention with Hi Ren, kept the momentum going with all the drops, and then BAM! hit us with the message he wanted to get out all along! Mind blown!

I should qualify that, I think. I would HOPE that I would jump in front of a bus to save ANYONE but there's the rub, I KNOW the depth of Ren's soul and what he means to people, so I wouldn't need to think about it with him.

This is beyond music now he is making master class pieces of art work. He's smart to leave it open to interpretation cause then everyone from any walk of life can relate to it in their own way, again not music this is pure artistry

The tale reminds me of a modern day King Midas. It's a beautiful piece, I didn't even realise that it was nine minutes long.

you know all his growls are a conscious element yeah ? Ren is a master of the details and the knowledge of hip hop rap is beyond all that most or any of us know .

Great reaction Anthony! Money Game 3 is such a masterpiece and Ren clearly needs his own show.

I watched the Knox & Sam interview and Sam said that they had to set up the pianist with inner ears so that he could hear Ren and follow the ques for the tempo changes because it got harder to hear Ren as the song progressed, especially considering how big the warehouse was.

15:54 I think this part is a symbol of hope because in "Hi Ren" he says "Some people know me as hope, Some people know me as the voice that you hear when you loosen the noose on the rope." So I think he is symbolizing hope here.

It was a one take...with the exception of one cut...where he had to move behind a prop, and there was a potential danger to the crew. Other than that, it is live and a one take. This comes from Sam who produced it. Just awesome. Mind blown!

There's certain points through Ren's videos where i think he's been inspired by things like "don't hug me i'm scared" and other artists who tell stories in rap like Akala another UK rapper. It's great and so masterfully put together. I'm so glad Ren's making waves, they're the messages we really need as a species and he's like a mirror held to us all.

I immediately thought of Danny Glover/Childish Gambino “America.” Ren is definitely on his level. Full body chills throughout!

Ren is transcending and blending musical genres so much. To the point where we accept (and love) Ren is his own undefinable genre that not a single reactor Knox, BP, Clff your goodself...who I all watch and respect never metioned the fact this is a musical. We just accept that it's Ren and listen. First thing I thought after being intoduced to Ren, like so many, through Hi Ren when it first came out, was how long before Lin-Manuel Miranda comes knocking on his door to work withn him.

Great reaction Anthony! Ren said the piano player is a classically trained pianist named Charlie. A friend of Sam's.

There's no one like him. He is so driven by caring for humankind, animal-kind, the world around us - he is so passionate about trying to spread a message of kindness, compassion and caring towards others to bring us all up - the rising tide, the rising ships... I hope people listen not just with their ears, but their hearts as well and start to make the small steps that reverberate with ever-widening ripples of effect through our world.

You know what a singularity moment is? Well, waiting for this video and it getting released is the next best thing.

Thank you for a great reaction Anthony, your excitement radiates and I could feel your creative and artistic mind just flowing when going through it! Much love and I hope you have a great day!

Great reaction! Reactions are as long as they need to be. Ren said, in his live stream after the premiere, that there is one cut as the camera pans behind the wheelchair. He knew they only had one shot at the water part. Knox said he was not there for the final filming, but he was a stand-in for the holder of the silver tray in the rehearsal.

Great breakdown Anthony, this is a masterpiece

I'm probably not Ren's target audience being close to 60 but I love him. He is genius.

On your toes with this reaction 😂

Ren deserves an Emmy, a Tony and a Grammy for this.!

because watching it twice is twice as good!!!! Amazing reaction to another Ren masterpiece!!! ren said there is a subtle cut (you spotted it just before the strings started playing) he said the first part was 17 takes i think he said, and the 2nd part 9 takes. ren could undoubtedly be an actor in his own netflix series, and sams videography is top notch as well!! AND we got Sick Boi album release in a few hours!!!! What a genius

Im 58 and a devoted fan. He is one in a generation wonder! A modern bard! This is pure genius!

Just watched it and now I'm here.🎉

Masterpiece. Teach over beats.

I actually love that he leaves it open to interpretation! It opens up discussions 💚🤗🍀

Ren is a one in a generational talent. I haven't seen videos done like this for a long time. And he's so unique I love it❤

When he was in front of the mirror, taking the rope from his neck, it reminded me of his line from Hi Ren - "Some people know me as hope Some people know me as the voice that you hear When you loosen the noose on the rope"

Yea Ren can totally be an actor man the way he puts his emotions into his movements is like insane you can hear his voice change and movements change in accordance to the mood of the scene its great.I could totally see him playing in peaky blinders lmao especially with the suit and the scene where there was a close up on his face.

Fantastic reaction ! Go on Anthony ! Ren is blowing minds with his art and shifting the collective consciousness.

This could be called Money game 3 "The tale of "Jimmy"

My first MG3 reaction viewing. Thank you for making it so enjoyable.👍💕🦇

Another awesome reaction man. For me too this is definitely on the same level as Hi Ren. Both are masterpieces with their own important respective messages. Messages that are so powerful that they will be echoed and potentially (hopefully) become part of our culture.

You guys haven't heard Ren beatboxing yet! He is amazing at it. That's how I met him, at a stage in an intimate family festival, where he was performing with his mates when he was 13 or 14 years old. These kids were incredible, they did a beatboxing chorus that was so clever. These kids were breaking musical ground!The fluidity of styles was already there. He created an acapella musical ensemble of beatboxing! A chorale of beatboxers 🤯 Unforgettable! I hope one day he shows his beatboxing skills again.

This is a one take. They have a specialized camera that can rotate 360 degrees. It’s crazy! Watched Knox too, and his information was super interesting. Wasn’t Knox that took over. I can’t wait to watch The Wolf Johnson’s Documentary on the making of this video. Love watching all your reactions!

Great stuff Anthony Ray - he's done it again - full of surprises.

There’s no one else like Ren. He’s just amazing

So HERE for THIS.

it was a jazz-classical pianist named Charlie Woof-Bryne who took over on the piano.

Ren has made me realise why people join a cult

Love your reaction and analysis as always. As a bonus I even got a lesson in chest bass and beat boxing. Man I love watching different reactors. So glad that I found your channel (and your music - great stuff too). Have a great weekend!

That was Crisp!!! Loved you demonstrating how the beatbox growl was introduced- would never have occurred to me otherwise even though we heard yellows voive

One of the first reactors on my lust! I thought the gun jammed too.

WOW! REN IS NEXT LEVEL FOR SURE! FUNNY ASIDE - I GOT A TOBLERONE ADVERT ON THIS VIDEO! LMAO!

Here is what I said on the official video comments section: I am reflecting simply of the those already stated: a masterpiece of a man reborn to a status and level only obtained by those clearly enticed and embraced by the divine. He will show the world that the music has called, calling, caller to all. Forever a man who speaks to his soul. Forever a man who cannot take without love. We will be forever in his debt and never again shall we question that the game is most impressed.

I think the "Mine ,mine give me" yes from the beginning to ending where it repulses him to hear those words, is a fine example of the state of being & that's nurture to nature.🌹🌹 Give this guy his roses ..brilliant . Superb on how he executes so very well his point of meaning.👍of course thanks to Anthony for presenting. Always a joy to me.😊

Hahha I thought the same thing re Knox. He said he was there for the rehearsal and that he played the part of the lady serving drinks from the tray. This video is truly epic. Oh and it is a one take. Loved your reaction:)

Just imagine this is all ONE TAKE too.... The fact he uses the camera behind the chair so they can move his mic away from his shoulder and hide it in waterproof plastic underneath his tie, just to prepare for the rain scene. So much respect for Ren and Sam for making these.

I was practicing the chest bass along with you 😂😂😂I think you're right about it being a worthy successor to hi Ren. It's another one of the bard ore ones ❤

Hey Anthony, I'm not sure if anyone answered for you, but Ren confirmed that there was at least one cut. It's at the point that the camera moves around the wheelchair. He mentioned on his Twitch stream that it was primarily due to the water. They would have lost all the footage from the shot they liked if there was a problem with the water flow. Rather than taking the chance of losing the first part, they cut it at the transition and set up that transition as another scene. There is also a short around of the making of this. If you find it, Bo is the man showing off his muscles, carrying around that huge camera arm. It has a spinning camera at the end. Knox did an interview with Samuel Perry-Falvey, where they shared some of the behind-the-scenes details.

I loved loved the message Ren has once again given us ❤ and I loved re watching it though your eyes 😊

The men with the briefcase and handshake mimic the cover of Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here, except no one's on fire.😂

Make sure y'all watch Money Games pt3 Official After Party.... filmed behind the scenes for Ren, by Wolfe Johnson!!! Loads of details ya don't wanna miss! Wolfe did a thing for sure!!!

11:05 Charlie is the name of the guy that took over for Ren at the piano…

Great reaction as always, just love the analytics guys like you and Knox does, btw the person taking over on the piano wasn't Knox lol, but he was apparently a bit involved in some of the video ideas. If you check in the description it shows the name of the Second Pianist: Charlie Woof-Bryne, but the first part is played by Ren himself of course

The hoods are because we are all hostages to the money game

He's composing Acting Singing Rapping Storytelling Mirroring Poetical Rhyming Teaching 🤯
