Thank you so much! Thx for watching

I'm 73 years of age and have witnessed a vast range of music in that time. Didn't really understand rap and hip hop, etc. However, with Ren being such a genius. I now have rejoined modern music culture. Bring it on. 👍👍

This EDM track was released in 2018 by Australian DJ and producer Fisher. The only words on the track were "I'm Losing It". Gives Ren a lot of room to play. 😉 I believe that room is in the apartment he shared for six years with Romain Axisa ( fellow band member from The Big Push) in Brighton. The apartment, and it's rooftop and backstairs, also features in several Big Push videos, Ren's "Murderer", and Romain's "75 Beats per Minute". Blow your mind and watch The Big Push doing "I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop". ( Look for Ren in red suspenders, cuz there a couple other "I Shot the Sheriff" videos)

Yes, he did it for fun because he cannot even monetize it or put it on spotify or itunes...

Adding my vote for The Big Push - (the band Ren was in) I Shot. the Sheriff (must be the version Ren is wearing red suspenders) Ren is in the zone and yet it's live without edits, without filters... just talent.

I've gotta add a second vote for 'I shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop' mashup, from the Big Push, and the 'Warpigs' mashup they did, which is actually the next tune they did directly after the I shot the sheriff one, you can literally stich them together to watch the whole thing without pause. Both are great renditions 👍🏻

My same reaction first time hearing this. Ren is different in a way that makes this 61 year old wake up rapping and singing his catalog.

Ren is a fucking genius with a great musical ear, can MASTER a wide range/variety of genres with EAsssee!! Such a legend. This song is simply an0ther example of him just having fun with UK rap/drum and bass vibes. Maestro, singer, multi-instrumentalist and poet. What more do ya need? 😆🔥🎶

When ever i see this video, we joking about Rens basketball skillz 😂 The guy seems to be able to do anything but basketball 😊❤

How Ren can produce rhymes, bars and so many flow changes to an EDM track that is so well NOT suited to a rap track is insane 🔥🔥 You need to check out his live stuff with the band he played in ‘The Big Push’

What's next? Ren - GENESIS! Go for it!!!!

ren - hi ren, is the track that broke him into the youtube reaction crews limelight, he's been on a roller coaster ever since. welcome to the ren rabbit hole, buckle up mate, its a hell of a ride.

His first solo album was 2016! But you need to go back 15 years+ for early recordings!

I love watching people react to Rens songs for first time as their minds are always blown just like mine aha Ren has so much skill and is so versatile he can't not like at least one of his songs

Best line from this track is, "I'm a digital vampire, Terabyte" The white dude next to Ren in the car is Viktus. He's the guy that wears the pig mask in Ren's videos. Every time you see the Pig mask, it's Viktus. He's a rapper himself. Awesome reaction as always bro!

My favourite is the (when talking about mixing the track) "I twist it, beat it, abuse it" and then the "REDLIGHT" from Squid Game immediately after it. I didn't think an abusive partner joke/reference could be funny but here I am, laughing.

REN does a song with Prof and drops a lyric line to the count of the syllables in descending order…….insane

Love how you matched up 'When the beat drops like this' to the EDM drop. Also 'Tarantino flow - no lullaby' references rapper Rico Tarantino youtube vid No Lullaby (skit) when Rico visits a therapist.

Ren is a genius! Cheers!🥃

Great reaction!! Loved it.❤ Theres a video on ch of a whole concert wth The Big Push. It was right bfr he went to Canada.

I love seeing peoples reaction to this song..

Ren has been working at music a a career since age 12. He really kicked off 12 /22 when he released Hi Ren. I think at that time he had 250,000 followers give or take.

There is only 1 negative thing about it, it’s too short❤❤❤❤

I'm not exactly sure where it's at, but there's a video floating around from his IG stories where he was spitting a verse and kept raising the beat tempo. He finally stopped at 200 BPM and I swear it looked like the video was playing in fast forward. He doesn't play!

One of my favourites!! This, The Hunger, Illest of Our Time, Genesis, Power! Love them. Do The Big Push - I Shot The Sheriff/Road auto Zion/Hip-hop (the version he’s wearing red suspenders 🖤

Brilliant reaction to another Ren classic.

My favorite line is beast mode MacBeth reference. He's going beast mode like MacBeth the US professional disc golf champion but also Shakespeare's MacBeth was always murdering the competition. And right after he said that line about going beast mode like MacBeth then he was in the 456 squid game track suit. Next level lyrics from Ren.

Did you notice that he filmed most of it himself as well? Ren happily does interviews! You should reach out and see if he'll come on your channel.

I'm gonna add my vote for The Big Push "I Shot The Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop". It is LIT. It's the one with Ren in the red Suspenders. I think the thumbnail has Romain playing guitar on his knees.

New entry in the 2023 Webster Dictionary: Definition of a true artist (with a capital A): Someone like Ren Gill. Don't you agree?! Fantastic reactions to Ren's work. Good job

Yeah, this song is epic. Sooooo much in it.

Power was the 1st track REN did after getting dropped by Sony- that track is definitely worth reacting to.

@serendipitish

11 ай бұрын

Not on breaking from Sony; but from his former management company. The Sony contract was mutually dissolved back in 2012/2013-ish when Ren got too sick to finish the album in the time frame they agreed on. But after he finally got his proper diagnosis and treatments, he was working with a management company to get his music career restarted, and I guess it wasn't working out in some way. Ren got free of the company, celebrated by writing, recording and producing "Power" in a very short time, called up his cameraman Sam and they filmed the video in an afternoon using two phone cams, and he released it on KZread within the next week. Freeedommmm!

First time I've seen you, the Ren rabbit hole brought me here. Love your energy brother! Subscribed and looking forward to more from you!

If you haven't done them already you might like Power, What You Want, and Genesis. What You Want is an homage to The Beastie Boys. You might also like Bittersweet Symphony (the Verve Retake).

I keep wondering how many of us regular humanoids will get tap into that same next level of passionate energy that Ren and Dimash feed on, while they create and perform as well ? It's just so totally awesome that I'm addicted to watching people watch it. A healthy addiction this time. 😂 I'm getting closer to whatever God is because of KZread. Some of the crazy stories I discredited before have credibility now forcing me to change my opinion since I've matured and grown up finally. It's still extremely confusing because I like regular answers that make sense. This year, apparently, 2024 is a big BIG year based on all my KZread watching for the last 3 years. Am I going to change for the better or fight for any lies? Btw, Ren and Dimash Have big roles in our awareness change toward accepting a plan this year. If you want to know more how this other energy operates in our world then I recommend opening up your mind like I did and try a few channels. The Next Soul Level is a channel I would recommend. It's really amazing. Sterling Psychic Medium is another one that amazes me with its accuracy and in it's ability to convince me of it's credibility. ❤😊

Due to Lyme disease, he was mostly homebound from age 19/20 until he was 26, when he had two stem cell transplants and slowly became functional again. However, he never completely recovered and has been in out-patient treatment in Canada since January trying to resolve ongoing issues of chronic pain, fatigue, neurological problems, severe food allergies.

Just watched Ren blue your mind, and had to subscribe. He's got sick flows for days. His ability to go from smooth flow then triple time and back so nice! Great reaction. Keep going this man had lots of great music.
