      My pleasure you guys. You all are some talented folks. I absolutely LOVED this. Would love to see you guys perform live one day! And since I’m a photographer and music writer, I would love to get some great shots of you guys and do an interview! One of these days, my friends!

    One of the things that differentiates Ren from a lot of rappers ( in addition the sophistication of his lyrics) is his sheer musicality.

  • @philk9227

    Great reaction m8. From what I gather The Big Push are on hiatus for a while. But given that Ren is in Canada undergoing treatment for six months that is not surprising. We can all hope that the guys will get back together when Ren returns to the UK, as we all want him to, fit and well🤞 They have a load of other good stuff out there from War Pigs, Paint it Black, Wade in the Water/Nina Simone to An Englishman in New York. That a band as good as The Big Push is still busking on the street is mind boggling! I hope they are filling stadiums in the not too distant future.

    • @MissMeKate
      @MissMeKate Před rokem +13

      I reckon that if/when Ren gets the chance of big gigs/stadiums etc, he will want to share that with the Push guys and some of the other artists like Chinchilla and Sam. He's great at lifting others up, I'm sure any platform for Ren is going to have an "and friends" vibe. We're already seeing it.

    Oh man, you gotta check out his busking session with Sam Tompkins - Earned It / Man's World / Falling. Best street performance I have ever seen. More of that soulful Ren electric and even more vocal gymnastics! Fire!

    Great reaction again buddy. I love that they included a snippet of 'Through the Night' by Bugzy Malone too.
    Ren is the equivalent of the movie that won a ton of Oscars least Sunday. 'Everything Everywhere All at Once'.
    The Big Push are on hiatus while Ren undergoes medical treatment in Calgary. I dare say there is more to come when he is fit & well.

They are all great musicians. Pssst Rens dropping a new track on march 29. His 32nd birthday. He has some music already in the can while hes away.

    Thank you for a fun reaction/review. This band is pure energy. They are a really exciting band. I have read some comments and realize that they have filled you in on the band situation. You really must watch the street performance of their original song Watch out. You will say once again " I should have watched this a long time ago ". They also Have a cover , which they do on a roof top Called Bongo Bong . Its one of my favorites.

  • @ChrisLawton66

    The Big Push have a number of great covers but also have equally good original material. Check out "Xbox Marijuana" or the live version of "Watch Out" from this same performance for starters.
    Also, the acoustic guitar Ren uses is a flamenco guitar, not a classical.

    "The Big Push" (Ren Gill, Gorran Kendall, Romain Axisa, and Glen Chambers) busking sessions, concerts, and live recordings all are awesome and well worth checking out. All but the drummer sing lead vocals at times. Their covers of "I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop," which you obviously just experienced first-hand, "Wade in the Water/Nina Simone/Trouble so Hard," “War Pigs,” "My Generation," "An Englishman in New York," “Bongo Bong,” “These Boots Are Made For Walking,” the songs "Oh My Woman," “Swan Song,” “Sweet Little Lady," "It's Alright," "Watch Out," “Dignity,” and so many others are equally impressive. The band performed their last official busking session and gave their last concert in September of last year due to the fact that Ren was leaving for Canada to undergo medical treatment for his multiple health issues, including surgeries.

  • @anticafo
