    This is my home city of Brighton. A beautiful juxtaposition, a city full of creative talent and the quirky. I’ve been blessed to see REN preform busking on the streets of Brighton and his back catalogue is just as diverse and daring. You gunna love money game 1&2 ,The hunger, its all fire 🔥

      I’m jealous you got to see him busking! Hopefully when he’s in better health he’ll be able to do some live gigs?!
      I also love the call back to Money Game 2 in Hi Ren, when he says “Ren mate we've heard it all before… she sell sea shells on the sea shore”.
      Great reaction & well wishes to Ren if he’s in the comments!

It's called 'It's alright'. It's about 7 years old and the video is wonderful! Much love and happy to see you are still on YT. 💕🤞

  • @BevisFriend2010
    @BevisFriend2010 Před rokem +6

    There's a lot going on in this. For a start 'The Seagulls' is Brighton & Hove Albion FC's nickname. Ren lives in Brighton, the whole song is an ode to his current hometown. Ending it with 'We're birds of a feather' ties up a spiral. He's a clever kid. Puts out a much needed vibe. Hope he goes absolutely interstellar. Seems like a very brave lad with an incredible amount of talent and stoicism.
    Ren is a Pure Creative Force.
    I'm a 51 year old who was lucky enough to see his train coming from behind an Akai mpc in Chester.
    He's not wrong about street violence. I can't go out since having my head smashed in literally twice.
    Britain needs to get real with it's attitude to 'drugs'. The street fights are ridiculous. It's alcohol & cocaine related shittery. I stay well away. I'm the proud owner of half a titanium face because of two random play-fighters. Been battered 2 or 3 times since. Self defence is a must in Britain. I'm disabled now. Last guys left me for dead in between 2 parked cars. I was walking, without my necessary crutches from a pub and got hit on the turn. Woke up at night-time. Half deaf. I got hit so hard it broke a piece of bone off in my ear which was later removed by a bedside Dr in the Hospital. Crazy how much that 1 moment changed me.
    Ended up with 3 cracked ribs too. Unconscious isn't enough for some people sadly. Some people like when you stop moving. I've survived a full unconscious 2-footed stamp on my head at 14-15 years old. Just walking home drunk and a gang hit me.
    Chester is one of the most beautiful cities on the planet. It has a full 360 degree Roman Wall surrounding it.
    Gotta be very careful going out on your own though. My son Sam has also been assaulted in town.
    It's far too common all over. I remember frequent punch-ups in pubs before it got really nasty. This is different. It's probably the biggest criminal problem right now in Britain. It ruins so many lives.

  • @orwellian7080
    @orwellian7080 Před rokem +2

    Loving this song. I think the last line “like birds of a feather” might be too British 😆 personally I think it refers to
    1 - a old saying: birds of a feather, flock together.
    2 - Birds of a Feather was also a popular 90’s comedy series about British society and family
    And the video fades out to sound of seagulls, the orchestra of the British seaside.

    Honestly man, I know I've mentioned it before, but I really dig your reactions. I feel like I can make sense of most things but the few I can't, you do a damn good job of explaining. I loved your energy going through Bo Burnham and I love it even more with you exploring Ren. Ren has very rapidly(As I just found him 4 weeks ago) become my favorite artist that has existed in my life. He is Eminem, Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan, Shakespeare, Van Gogh, Tarantino(though that might be Sam), and Mozart all tied into one.
    As for your reactions, you're the only one I ever watch where I'll let the adds play through to ensure you're getting yours'. Keep it up man. Love your content, energy, and persona.
