  • I’m becoming more and more impressed with this dude with every song I hear. He is one of the most versatile artists I’ve come across in a while with a very refreshing take on music. And most importantly, he’s is himself to the fullest.

      It's the little nuances isn' it, a msg in every scene and verse.
      Ren is an enigma.
      I hate to compare, but he does play guitar like a God, sings like a freaking Angel, writes songs like he's Shakespeare, storytells them like he's hired by the KIng to entertain him. Rap's like he's standing next to Eminem and TechN9ne. Acts like he's an Oscar's nominee. Produces like he's Dre. Addresses all humanities issues, and with honesty, and a rawness.
      Jaw on the floor good. A once in every 20 years artist/band. Who can appeal to a 16 year old and an 80 year simultaneously. Incredible. And........... an artist who no-one can box or label.
      Peace and love fellow Ren disciple, @JW, if I was gonna join a cult, it would be Ren's, I raise my fist to the anti capitalistic pi**ed.
      His lyrics and bars are spot on phew. Needing a scuba tank I been so long down Ren's rabbit hole😂

    Ren was misdiagnosed years ago , he was bed ridden with 23hrs in bed. He was sycotic with alot of mental illness, he also had alot of general illness. 7 years after it started he was told he had been bitten by a Tick and had Lyme Disease, Ren is in Canada for special treatment possibly including operations.
    I'm sure we all wish him well and that the Canadian treatment helps.

  • @zackbryans4982
    @zackbryans4982 Před rokem +1

    I think in the last few lines of the opening "I'm put on life support, I've been put up on a higher shelf" he's talking about the people around him. A very common theme for mental health is those around you compensating for you, hence the life support, and setting high expectations for you, hence the higher shelf. I think it's supposed to be a commentary on how those things can be detrimental. Falling short of those expectations, or learning to rely on that life support too much can be just as bad as the mental health in the first place. The whole song is amazing but those two lines always hit home for me.

      Absolutely, the other rap retakes are fire as well. The only thing is that he doesn't own the rights for the beats for those, have to be honest to Cliff after so much support :). I saw other reactors reacting to them though, don't know how it works. Would love to watch Cliff analyzing them of course.
