The laminate wasn't a metaphor. Ren recounted in an interview how he was lying on the laminate kitchen floormof his mum's house, clawing at the floor in agony. The fact that he is albe to alchemise theae experiences into such astounding musical compositions is outlandish

That was so intense, I sat here and never moved a muscle, just my eyes until the end. I need a beer.

One day, I'm going to read a story in the papers about some fella who lives in Wales that spontaneously combusted reacting to a video and I will definitely know that it was you 😂😂😂

As someone who has lived with life-altering pain every day for 15 years due to a severe back injury, this song hits home. Pain does teach us, whether we want it to or not. In the past, I've been bedridden for weeks at a time, I was unable to walk even with a walker, and I've fallen so many times that I've lost count. I've wished I was no longer alive, cursed at the unfairness of it, grew bitter in defeat, until I was finally just existing with both my feet in a grave while waiting for it to end. However, pain also taught me just how strong I am, and just how much I can overcome. While yes I will still always be in pain every day for the rest of my life, I will never let it win. To anyone going through it too, please never give up. YOU CAN DO THIS!

@@deborahhalbert3372 I understand. Just realize, it is perfectly okay to not be okay. Even now I still struggle with it. I used to joke around and say I didn't need to get married because I already have a lifelong partner in my pain. The physical aspect becomes easier over time, as both your body and your mind will build up defenses to help you deal with the pain. The mental is the biggest battle. You might try checking out meditation and/or yoga. Both can help strengthen both the body and mind. I know it's hard and it feels like others just aren't willing to try and understand what you are going through, which leaves you feeling so alone. Try not to blame those who don't get it though, if you can. It's actually not their fault, because the human brain is a funny thing. It will protect them from the knowledge that pain on that level actually exists. Just give them time, and those who love you will eventually understand, or at least understand that they can't understand. Just know that you are not alone because there are a lot more of us out here than you may think. Everyone is stronger than they ever dreamed possible, it's just that most people are not put into a situation in life where they have to learn this lesson. I'm sorry you are one of us, but I believe in you, and you can make it through this!

I feel like he will if he EVER gets to Losin It.

This reaction gave me high blood pressure and anxiety, then cured it! All within 30 minutes. One of my fave ever songs, dissected with passion and skill. Loved it!

This is autobiographical. Ren is relaying what he went through at the worst of his pain. He's literally telling us about his hallucinations.

Well for a minute there I thought we were going to have a Hectorexplosion, just SPLAT then silence! I'm quite pleased that didn't happen , I would miss you ❤

4 minutes and 35 seconds of an antihalation of my brain. That does about sum it up

When I first watched this, I had massive sensory overload. I just couldn’t process it. I had to listen without the visuals, even that was overload. Now I can watch and take it in. Bloody fantastic. 💜💜

I actually thought your head was going to explode during that 😂 what a reaction. I hope Ren gets to see this ❤

An ADHD reaction to an ADHD song. Both brilliant! Seven Sins is one of my favourites and it’s also just the perfect opening track for the Sick Boi album. When you get deep enough into the rabbit hole you will notice how the entire album is like a Reniverse tapestry of interconnected lyrics and references with this song hinting at what’s to come. A *forensic* dissection of humanity and pain *for Ren’s sick*… boi sick boi 🐰🕳️

I could not stop playing this track when I first got the album Sick Boi. It's painfully beautiful.

Holy fuck hahaha that was the best goddamn reaction I have ever seen. The combo of you and Ren got my heart rate way up as I felt every lyric and also lost my shit laughing at the pure enjoyment of it all. And then you said something about a new sexhole 😂😂 you dirty poets, the both of ya

Mark that was perfect! I think most of us had our minds blown this way when we heard it too. Thank you for your reactions!

I also would like to give a huge shout out to LyricVids for these lyric videos for ren, especially this one. Its so incredibly well done 💜💜

7 sins😍 I love this one! I painted a canvas piece of the animated picture he uses for the album cover with the 7 sins around him! I just love this album! No wonder it was number 1!

I have been waiting for this one. I could picture your face when the beat came in and then the violins. The thing I love about Ren's music is that it is always authentically from his personal experience but he has the ability to illustrate the connections to all of us and the world. It is always brutally honest, relatable and yet hopeful in a way. Even the sad ones have an air of I have overcome so we all can overcome. This song is just brilliant and your reaction just took it to another level! I want a Hector Ren Podcast or something! Could change the world! Thank you! ❤

After this and Dear God, you HAVE to do Eden now. You have turned the corner, so no stopping now!

I think Ren spoke about the God/Noose line was something he envisioned when he was in bed with psychosis. It was Lyme disease he had but was mis diagnosed for years which lead to further complications that hes now getting treatment for in Canada. The best reaction as always dude, made my day my fav reactor and Ren ❤

Such a good breakdown full of excitement and ADHD🤣. You're right, layers upon layers. Many have reacted to Ren's 1 million subscriber defining success video. It's so inspiring. You get to hear in his own voice where he came from, what he stands for, his humanity, and what he wants for this world, Even if you don't react to it, watching it will make you feel... a lot.

John Lennon bars. Then next line, "Prophets get dropped for imagining Heaven" "John Lennon- Imagine" "Sinnerman" is also one of his fav songs 🎵 Such a brilliantly written song with no wasted lyric ❤

I feel this in my soul, and not in a good way. 😪 I have a rare blood disease that causes many of the same pains and issues Ren has. The stomach pain on the floor? I've lived that exact scenario. At the same time, the song is like a hug, letting me know I'm not alone in only thw ay that Ren can. ❤

This is a helluva way to kick off an album isnt it? Its so good. 😊💜💜 also, only ren can use the word onomatopoeia in a rap song and make it makes sense and sound perfect 😂 **LIBRARIAN BRAIN**

My absolute favorite on the Sick Boi album. Pay me my cheese ( money), rain down Parmesan - rain down money! Explains the pain I live with everyday. Thanks Mark, great reaction as always ❤

This song 🎵 packs Rens experience of the Lyme disease his subsequent MH issues and misdiagnosis/medication. The physical pain experienced had an impact that is visceral on hearing 7 sins. How he combines this and the state of our lives is incredible.

I reacted much like Mark. An utterly exhausting 4 1/2 minutes. My anxiety couldn't wait for the end. My heart is ready to hear it again. Mad exhaling.

This is the 1 that hits the hardest for me because i been at the lowest point we can be at as humans its the "have you ever felt pain" part that gets me man from loosing my mom to getting stabbed and shot up and the battle with drink and drug addictions and failed suicide attempt i have felt the worst kind of pain....when ren goes into that part about pain it hits my soul so fuckin hard....this track is the the perfect definition of laying it all out on the table. The beat, the lyrics, the flow change, the delivery its just pure perfection

Not sure what this says about me... enjoyed the first run through where you kept trying to catch the wave while those monstrous verses kept growing...your eyes got bigger and bigger as you watched them ceaselessly come crashing down to engulf you. It made me happy.

Thank you 🙏❤ Mark ❤ for your 🐷 Ren - 🕖 Seven Sins reaction! #ren #sevensins #sickboialbum Ren is Welsh, originally from Wales, and the intro is in the Welsh language. It translates to: Illness is my teacher / It broke my smile / My bones feel old / Here lies the body of Ren This song itself is an intro to the 2023 💉🐷💊 Sick Boi album, so what you noticed is him announcing what's to follow.

Such a powerful track so damm clever as usual, a perfect reaction.

That is the day he fell into psychosis from pain and bitterness after a treatment backfired on him. 13 years since his symptoms started. And God left him and died to him.He was virtually bedridden for 5 years. Lyme disease triggerred everything but he always expands that to society.

Wow! 🤩 this song is a masterpiece of its own, but with you sharing your insights and knowledge around almost every bar in this, it levelled up even more! I appreciate and love your way of thinking and how you splurt out smart, logical things left and right in some of your reactions. I've learned so many new things from you, that hits home... love 🥰🥰🥰

I had resolved to be offline earlier this week to sort out wonky sleep. Then I saw you were back on the Ren train and no bedtime for me. ❤😂 Genuinely worried you might have an aneurism listening to this the first time. It's incredible isn't it. Really shows how he has grown as a rapper. It's distinctively Ren, but still proves he is up there with the best on this track imo.

Probably my favourite Ren song. Love this one! Great reaction as always 💜💜

I have been waiting patiently for this. This song is a masterpiece. I will never tire of this.

And now you may want to put your head in the fridge for a while. You certainly met his brains. But you didn't fall behind at all. This fireworks display was a joy to watch!

This is my true favourite and penitence of Ren's out of the 200+ songs I listen to on constant rotation but I can't help to think you're head will ACTUALLY explode when you listen to loosing it with you're ADHD 😅

It's only monday, and my week is already complete! xD I'm a simple man, and "Aaawww fack off!" is all i need

I also felt violated upon first listen. I was literally in shock and so unsettled. I listened a second time and realized this chaos was true beauty. I listened a third time and cried. I finally allowed the rest of the album to play and I never stopped crying until Murderer came on. Then I laughed and cried tears of fun hysteria through wicked ways and loco. I’ll never forget where I was or how I felt the first time I listened to Sick Boi in its entirety the day it was released. God we are so lucky to have this beautiful man!!!

Yes, it's a masterpiece.

I didn't realize it was possible to see someone's head explode multiple successive times like fireworks! 💥💥💥💥💥💥🤯 (wasn't even supposed to be a full song, just an intro, then turned into a full-blown masterpiece!)

A lot of the pain Ren talks about here in this track is literally the physical pain he endured due to his lymes disease and the awful things it must have done to his body when going undiagnosed for so long. Then obviously the mental trauma that inevitably impacts and the all the resentment building in his mind and questions he’s asking himself and indeed his/her higher self.

I am a PhD in Philosophy and I agree. He us absolutely a Philosopher. This song is my everyday research. No doubt I will be cray cray one day but I love it! I specialize in Existentialism 😂❤

Don’t forget that it’s not just mental health with Ren it’s actual physical bodily pain - deep inside because it’s a autoimmune disease so he literally felt his body, his head his bones were on fire - real deep pain that was misdiagnosed for years and years as being just in his head! No doctor idiots it’s real pain!!!! I love your energy!!! I’ve just found out at 51 I’m probably autistic so I can relate LOL ❤️❤️❤️

"Ohh...ffffuuckin 'ell....you created an extra sex hole...." genuinely made me laugh out loud 😂😂😂

Ha! I speak only the truth! 🤣🤣🤣🙌

Urukai Master Plan. Think Nazis. in Lord of the Rings, Saruman sided with Sauron. Sauron wanted him to create an army to rival the West. Saruman then crossbred orcs with Elves, creating the Urukai breed of orcs; they were master fighters and viscious. He spent his Urukai armny at Helm's Deep attacking the defenders. Gandalf and the Rhohirim saved the day near the end of the great battle. The fleeing orc army ran directly into the woods behind; though those woods were actually the ENTs (treants) who killed every last orc and warg. Brain, you need to bone up on your LOTRO history.

I loved this, but you got me worried your mind was going to explode during your first listen 😅

Brilliant! See knew you would pick up on the Tupac bar immediately! Ren needs to be protected in this crazy world 🖤

😂😂😂That was hilarious looked like your brain was gonna explode 💥 ❤❤

Dynamite dealer also links to Alfred Nobel who invented dynamite (a more handleable improvement over unstable raw nitroglycerin), and was then horrified at how the improvement led to the increased use of explosives in war. He used the profits from his invention to fund the Nobel Prizes -- trying to turn his pain and regret into something positive.

This one explains how I feel, I am a chronic pain suffer

Your eyes man. When you listen and your mind is reeling I can see inside of you the intensity and the concentration as you dissected this one . That is a reaction you will never hear from anyone else. . Mark you are the best.

I think Ren “God tied a noose to hi neck and jumped “ is Ren believing God had disappeared or given up on us as a whole and left him suffering in bed for all those years.

Forensic line is hardest on the album. Masterpiece of a song that no one can fully comprehend on one listen.

If it's possible for a human being to evaporate from excitement, you were fucking close to it 🤩😆 Enjoyed this one, my friend! Keep up the good work

I never clicked on a reaction so fast!!😂😂 Couldn't wait to see Ren blow Brain Squeezes brain!!!! Best reaction ever!!

That was awesome Geeeezzzaaa! I've seen many... loads of reactions..... break downs! Blah blah..... F@#kin blah! Really enjoyed this! Thanx! Much love from Essex! Oi Oi! ❤😂❤😂

This one hits so hard and you are right, there are so many layers! It’s a very powerful way for Ren to kick off the Sick Boi album. Loved the reaction! I knew the ending would inspire you. Another one of my absolute favorites is “Crutch” written and performed when he was experiencing what he describes in this song. The combination of excruciating pain and psychosis must have been unbearable, but he channeled it into something beautiful and thought provoking. He will be releasing a new track on May 9th called “Troubles” where he will go deeper into sharing his story.

Dude just went on an audio rollercoaster and could barely hold on! "Nope! I don't think I can do this again." One breath later, "Yeah you can." Yeah, man. We all felt that, too.

🤣🤣🤣 Been waiting for this one! Love your reaction 😆

Ren always takes his own pain (undiagnosed Lyme disease) and makes it relatable to all people's suffering and to the suffering of the planet. it is his magic.

A musical and lyrical masterpiece... many, many listens later and I'm still picking up details I missed previously... it's so layered. thanks Hector!

As for the "rain down parmesan" line, it reminds me of the line from the movie Tombstone, where experienced gunfighter Earp accepting the frontier Sherriff's badge in a new town means he's likely to have to kill the bad guys. "I've already got the guilty conscience, might as well have the money too." If pain makes money, Ren's had half a lifetime of pain -- life owes him the cheese for everything he's already suffered.

The noises you were making through the first listen had me dying🤣🤣🤣

I'm never ready and can't wait ❤

I was waiting on this one and u did not disappoint! 🤯🤯FAB reaction as always! 💛💜🩵

This song is my favourite from the Sick Boi album... every time i hear it i pick up on another beautiful layer of music or meaning.... its just brilliant.. Love watching your head almost explose lol

A soon as I saw that you reacting to this one, I was like oh shit... This song and Hector will be full of ADHD😂 Absolutely one of my fav on Sick Boi album ❤

Wow !!!! What an AMAZING reaction video....... Thanks Mark

7times MASTERPIECE...feel your pain in this...🫨👌🏼

If I had a swear jar, I'd be able to retire after this reaction. ❤‍🔥❤‍🔥(I say that with all the love and the foul mouth I have has found my language soulmate 😋)

I’m so happy! This is my favorite Ren song. It explains so well what he went through and tied it in so beautifully with his message.

Fucking brilliant!!! 👏👏👏 have been waiting for your reaction to this one since the album dropped. “He’s created another sex hole” has got to be statement of the year 😂😂😂 Such a superb track & the perfect one to open the Sick Boi album - fantastic reaction 👏👏🥰

What hits hardest is at the end where Ren says one sin for every one day of the week could also be interpreted as one sin for everyone, day of the weak. Just 🔥

This is a tough one to break down. No doubting that. There’s so much to dissect. Plus, you’ve got multiple different layers. Ren clawing at the laminate writhing in pain, wasn’t a metaphor. That’s just plain facts. “God tied a noose to his neck and he walked to the edge and he jumped” is what Ren saw in the depths of his psychosis brought on by misdiagnosed Lyme disease. John Lennon was shot by a guy that wanted to gain the attention of Hollywood actress, Jody Foster. It’s a crazy world we live in, man. Hope this helped a bit. Cheers, mate.

You are right about finding new things to dissect each listen…..this song offers so much sonically and the video is a an assault on the senses too. It is my favourite on the Sick Boi album and seeing your reaction….wow…..it certainly had an impact on you too. Loved this reaction 💜🔥

I commented on REN’s track Lost all faith when it was released, “He’s not the Massiah, he’s a very naughty boy! “. Now I’m not so sure🤔 It’s not a cult. It’s a book club 🫵😁 This was awesome Mr Hector sir🍎. Have to stop watching you at bedtime. F**kin wide awake again now 🧨

!!! 😂❤ absolutely brilliant as usual!

24:22 This is where you went into another dimension ❤

To see/hear you react to Ren ❤❤ Every time!

Omg Hector!!!😅 My brain feels like yours. An insane tornado of thoughts and revelations! Ren is 🤯🤯🔥 Btw. You said you did Dear God but I can't find it 🤔 #BRAINSQUEEZEREACTIONS ❤

Fucking brilliant mate

This was the f***ing best reaction and analysis of this song I've ever heard. I love this song so much and I have listened to it many times, but you still managed to increase my understanding of it during your incredible analysis. This was perfection!

A simple thumbs up to like just isn’t enough for this. I didn’t need to rewind what you said at the end to understand….. think I’ve been watching you too much 😂 I knew this one would blow your brain. Beyond the lyrics I think the beat and production has stepped another level again. Hell of an opener for an album huh? I have many favourite Ren tracks but when someone asks me to name one, this is always the first that comes to mind. The way his flows and beats switch up so often it definitely keeps the brain focused and off on a tangent all at the same time 🤯🤪😱

Hey Hector, I'm starting another binge!!!! REN REN REN!!!!💜💜💜"running from the silhouette of self doubt" - that's ME... I can't wait for the dissect!!! I've been crying on the floor many times, frozen by panic, wanting to not feel anymore, this song made me cry...34 years of panic for me.

This song is essentially my theme today, good lord I didn’t know my back could be this jacked up. Perfect timing with this reaction, thanks for distracting me❤️

This song is epic sonically and lyrically and the production is an interpretive dance. It is straightforward about physical pain and mental pain; and it's also layered with metaphorical concepts that possibly even Ren didn't realize during its creation. Our friend Mark has a brain that grabs all the goodies and sees a pattern and can interpret the vision for us who seek. This is a very good thing. Verily.

Oh, I've been waiting for this 😂

Best 7 sins reaction I've seen and I 've seen a lot. Not only your great energy, also the deepness of your thoughts! Love it Hector ❤❤❤

Watching you reaction is like reliving the first time I heard this. I felt as bewildered as you... 🌻❤️
