Ren is a big supporter of the reaction community, so if you get a copyright claim just appeal it and his management will get it lifted.
He has loads of songs, I have yet to hear a bad one, and he doesn’t really have any genre he fits in.
Check out Ren and Chinchilla together, and also check out Chinchilla’s own music.
You also have to check out (if you haven't already hahaha ), The live session he did with Liv Sangster. Chinchilla works so well with Ren in her own flavour, but Liv matches more of his deeper blues style :) Gives me shivers lol.
Did not expect Hi Ren on my Blind Wave bingo card, but I'm glad it happened. Ren is a phenomenal performer and at the very least you guys should also see:
"The Tale of Jenny and Screech" and "Money Game Pt 1,2 &3". Love you guys, and a big fan of Ren, too.
I'm thankful there's artists like Ren and NF who are talking about things like mental health and not just tropes.
Eric, if you're not familiar with NF, there's another gem for you. He's often suggested on Ren videos for similar subject matter. Lots of personification of emotions.
just to add the tales should be reacted to one one hit
also if you want more rap:
Hunger, illest of our time, nas retake
more singy:
back on 74 Message in a bottle retake and Ren's band the big push - I shot the sheriff or warpigs.
OH! Of course there is trouble which honestly explains who Ren is very well.
"Like he's surfing within the chaos" ... has got to be one of the best analyses of this song, and Ren in general, that I have ever heard!
Indeed.
Yeah, I thought the same. It hadn't occurred to me but that's just what it sounds like.
Same ❤
Also, "weathering the storm within his head." Brilliant summary.
So glad you guys have discovered Ren! Us Renegades will welcome you with open arms, things to be aware of: the Ren rabbit whole is deep and you will lose yourself in it, this viedo is entirely live, and shot in one shot, no cutting, a lot of his videos are like this, also a completely independent artist, no record companies involved. If you want to continue on with Ren, i'd advise the Hunger or Animal Flow for his great rapping, "The Tales" trilogy for his story-telling, or Money Game parts 1, 2, and 3 for his magnum opus.
Man, feels good that REN is getting more recognition.
My two world colliding
@thomas216h they came uninvited... 👀 have to make their order super special. ikyk
Seconded all this. I will add as recommendations his collabs with Chinchilla in Chalk Outlines and How to Be Me.
Love that you guys reacted to Ren. I love seeing how different people react to him and his music. Ren is amazing! I would also suggest Sick Boi.
Rens gonna see this at some point and comment, he's cool like that
Considering he is a proud member of the geek community, I have every confidence he is a subscriber! I'm absolutely floored to be watching a Ren reaction on Blind Wave!
Yeah, I saw Ren put a comment on Prof's Tombstone video. He is cool like that.
@@clarissathompsonme too this is crazy but brilliant
@@WelshAmethystGirl087 can’t help but notice your name says you’re Welsh. Do you live in Wales? I’m going to Ireland next month and am considering taking the ferry from Dublin to Holyhead and staying a couple of nights …do you know Anglesey? Any suggestions?
@@clarissathompson I can also answer questions about Dublin since I'm from Ballymun (northside of Dublin)
The fuck….Ren? Don’t get me wrong I’m so hyped, I just never expected it. Ren is a once in a generation talent. I don’t know if it’s possible to create that much beauty without seeing so much pain.
RIGGHT?!!?!? I am so excited. Next thing you know they're reacting to Dimash lol
I'm here only for Ren. This is a surprise for this channel? If they've done reactions before I'm surprised they only got here now.
@@workingit3055 they're more of a movie and tv show reaction channel
@@kaiellis7479 thanks
@@lafatte24 Ren AND Dimash? I would never leave 😂
You need to watch "The Tale of Jenny and Screech" by Ren. It's a three part story in a similar style to "Hi Ren" and it's just as good if not better!
100% in agreement!!
Got to watch the "full" version
Definitely 100% this!
Ya another masterpiece.
Ren is one of the most incredible artists of our time! Please check out more of his work. Especially his Money Game trilogy, The Tale of Jenny and Screech (the whole 13 minute shebang) and his collabs with Chinchilla are breathtaking! Big ups for this reaction!
I would add Losing It to the list. Loads of lyrical AND visual film and pop culture references. AND, it's a banging tune which makes for a bit of light relief.
@@toria-jI would do The Hunger before Losing it but that is just me. They both are flabbergasting
The tale of Jenny and Screech would be up your alley to react to, it is essentially a short one man tragic play each one is done in one take live, like this one. He has all three songs in one video to be watched together
Absolutely! The twist is Shakespearean/M. Night level awesome sauce. 😊
Im 62 and this young man is quickly becoming the artist of my lifetime 🇬🇧😊
Same age of 62 and same appreciation of Ren.
Ren's backstory he had lyme's disease but it was completely misdiagnosed, so not only did the disease wreek havoc, but also the treatments for the misdiagnosis. He sings about it in SickBoy.
The Tale of Jenny and Screech (complete trilogy) is difficult to listen to, but is masterful in storytelling.
He was also had a band, The Big Push, which is alot more fun, especially busking on the streets of Brighton.
Like "The Big Push - I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop" is just him, and his bandmates on street corner absolutely killing it.
YES YES YES !
What they said..
Whata you mean not easy to listen to. It's like a magical bard. I can't stop listening when I've started it.
@@jonte2343 not easy, meaning it's a difficult topic
@@jonte2343 It is difficult to listen to but in a good way difficult, because it is so heart wrenching if that makes sense. lol.
No way, my favourite reaction channel reacting to my favourite artist.
❤
I second that! 😊
Same here! What an awesome surprise to see this pop up!
Right? It's a good day :)
I know, right?! I jumped on this reaction an hour after it was posted, no hesitation!😊
@@clarissathompson Same.
I have never seen Blindwave do a music reaction.
Who better that the legend that is Ren to be the first.
TALE OF JENNY AND SCREECH NOW PLEASE
So excited for a Ren reaction. Hope y'all react to the tale of Jenny and screech and Violets tale. It's a 3 part story told in rens style of classical guitar and vocals. It's amazing.
💯
Masterpiece
Absolutely! Appropriate theatre song for such a channel about “stories”
Yes! Its so hard to choose whether Money Game trilogy is better than Jenny and Screech trilogy. My favorite is Money Game personally but I understand if other people like Jenny & Screech better.
@@longkesh1971 I like Jenny and screech abit more but I love both trilogy's. Rens just a god damn wordsmith
4 cameras, one take live! The sound and lighting deserve huge respect too
It was filmed in 4 takes, not one.
@AwesomeNuke there where four run throughs all one take it was run through number 3 that we see.
@@declanmoore9005li believe it the 4th take for the music performance and the 3rd take for monologue.
Fantastic edit
Using the instrumental in the background, the 3 stack with the large screen, cutting back to Ren for the line reads in the analysis. And so on
Yeah, thoroughly enjoyed it as well, helps us connect with what they are talking about!
I watch y’all’s tv and movie reactions all the time, but I hadn’t checked out your music reactions yet. I have to give y’all so much props on the editing and format you have going on in this. The three stacked to the side during the video was super cool, and you having the lyrics up the way you did was brilliant. And then I dig how you have the background from the music video for a backdrop in the discussion. Just super well done all around you guys! And a great discussion! This song caught me so off guard the first time I heard it, it really is a masterpiece.
I think this is their first music reaction ive had a look for others on their channel but haven't found anything
@@WelshAmethystGirl087 I know they’ve done some Taylor swift and I think k-pop. But those aren’t really my jam so I hadn’t watched them.
@@newsiesmario2242 ye I'm not into k pop I tried it but it's not for me, for some reason it reminds me of trafficking. Not seen any swifty do they have any other channels
I didn’t ever think I would see Blindwave reacting to my boy Ren
Ren is a one once in a lifetime music artist. He is a different breed. A wordsmith. Once you know his life story, you will drown in his work of art. Next: “The Tale Of Jenny & Screech” Great reaction guys! More REN.
No fuckin wayyyy!!! Ren has been my favourite artist for about 3-4 years and you guys are my favourite reaction channel so this is amazing ❤😂
Ren is a genius, a rare talent. He has survived a horrific illness and is only now getting appropriate treatment.
He plays many instruments, writes poetry, songs, scenarios etc.
Follow his career with his great busking band, The Big Push; his amazing collabs with Chinchilla etc; his incredible story telling in The Tale of Jenny and Screech (and Violet), Money Game trilogy etc.
Go to his CZcams channel and listen to his stories etc. He has made people's lives better
His range is seemingly endless.
He played this all live 😮
Yehp, apparently he performed and recorded this live, 4 times, and then for the video he just used the best video bits from the different camera angle. He had a little mic on his gown(by his neck) and his guitar was plugged in.
That's how I understand it.
Please continue to react to Ren in the future, his music is phenomenal and I highly recommend it!
The #1 picks I'd have for you is:
The Tale of Jenny and Screech Trilogy (One seamless story told across 3 songs: Jenny's Tale, Screech's Tale, and Violet's Tale)
Money Game Trilogy (Money Game Pt. I, II, & III)
The Hunger
Love Music (Pts 1-4)
Hope to see more from you guys in the future, keep it up!
I'd say that Seven Sins is also a great song to react to
Both his songs with Chinchilla, his accoustic Animal Flow, Crutch and For Joe are definitely up there too. And all his live busking with Sam and the big push pretty much too
I hope they do Chalk Outlines and The Tale of Jenny and Screech. Great reaction as always, Blindwave.
God, I havn't watched you guys in years. So glad you popped up in my stuff.
Ren has a HUGE category of phenomenal stuff, some rap some not, and you should NOT miss checking out(This is just a small list, by no means saying his other works are less, just a short list of my favorites, not even my full favorite list):
For storytelling, "The Tale of Jenny and Screech" - make sure its all 3 songs at once
For Rap: The Hunger, Losing It (A Fisher Retake)
For cover remixes: Bittersweet Symphony
For singing: Chalk Outlines live Ren X Chinchilla
For singing and rap(cover): Back on 74
To tear your heart to pieces: Su*cide
Again, a short list of my favorites, and I wasn't going to try to get them all here....He is phenomenal on multiple levels and you should look into it.
Oh wow. This one is really unexpected. Been listening to Ren's music for a while now, and it's some real special stuff. Y'all are in for an emotional treat
My gamer tag is Renn, I was in a rehab class for alcolism. They played this video one day, came out of nowhere and hit hard.
110% react to the full Tale of Jenny and Screetch if you want to see how bad ass a storyteller he is. React to The Hunger if you want to see what a bad ass rapper he is. React to Money Game 1-3 if you want to see how brilliant he is. React to Chalk Outlines or How to Be Me if you want to see how good a singer he is. Listen to Suicide if you want to cry, and react to anything else of his just to see how amazing an artist he is period.
I'm so happy seeing Ren starting to get the attention he deserves, the dude is amazing.
Much gratitude to Janci for bringing this to the attention of Blind Wave and appreciative fans. Love to Obi and the guys.
I'm SO glad Ren is making his way across the world like he is...the world NEEDS people and artists like Ren now more than ever.
Funny you mentioning Harry Mack, he did a tribute to Ren on a livestream. There's a video floating around of Ren reacting to that.
Yup, it's amazing! I suggest waiting until you've seen a little more of Ren and his story (if you're willing to travel down this music reaction rabbit hole); you know how Harry Mack weaves in references to all sorts of things, so it won't necessarily all be as meaningful to y'all right now. But we Renegades will be happy to point you in the right direction when you want it!
Can't say how excited I am to see you guys find Ren! Whether you do any more of his stuff on camera I highly recommend going through his discography there is so much emotion, experience, skill and talent in his music
The mental struggle is very real and Ren knows it and deals with it everyday,I believe a lot of us can relate
We can relate. All of us. But I know for a fact that what most people have suffered through and been mistreated for has not came close to make them bedridden for ten years and in deep psychosis for years. He has F ing been through it, for all of us and has came out such an amazing man.
Ren improving peoples IQ one song at a time :)
👍 and compassion
And self awareness. Maybe most of all
Love your reacting to this , once you fall down Rens rabbit hole there is no going back. The Tale of Jenny and Screech trilogy is one of my favorites
WOW! I can't believe you guys are reacting to Ren! Prepare to be blown away by his most versatile and genre bending talents! I've been a subscriber here since Calvin started watching GOT, to see your channel featuring one of my favourite independent artists makes me very happy! The Tales of Jenny and Screech really need to be the next on your watch list! Then next, Money Game 1, 2, & 3. You guys made my day! Welcome to the Renegades, we're everywhere!!! I would also recommend watching his series of "Chapters", 8 short videos he did telling his extensive health journey, in some detail, having released one every day for a week leading to his release of his single "Troubles" which was released in early May. It gives real insight to many of the songs in his catalogue. Enjoy the Rabbit Hole, folks!
Oh man I saw this pop up and ran to the computer. YOu guys should look up more of his stuff even if you dont react to it. He is amazing
Ren was mis-diagnosed and had Lime Disease for years from getting bitten by a tic. He got the wrong treatment and had all these issues because of it. This went on for around 10 years before they found out the correct problem. That is how he got the psychosis and other issues.
Harry Mac did a freestyle for Ren. Ren and his videographer start over if there's a mistake, I've heard it was four takes to finish. Ren says they got kicked out of the space afterwards so they were stuck with what the had anyway.
I'm not sure my heart can take my fav reactors reacting to one of my fav artists!! 💗💗💗
My reaction worlds have collided.
I'm impressed by how in tune that dog is. Paying attention to the video and your emotional state the whole time. Not sure if it's an emotional support dog or not but you can tell how much it loves you.
I’m sooo glad Blind Wave is able to react to Ren. The most you dive into his music and backstory the more you become a fan of him. His music is exceptionally great and his voice for the mental health community is inspirational
Woohoo. Welcome to the world of Ren! I’ve been doing Ren reactions on my channel for a lot of his videos and have more coming soon. He’s amazing and has one of the most fascinating stories you’ll ever encounter.
you guys are in my top 5 reactors. you have no idea how excited i was to see you reacting to my favourite artist! as much as people love Ren for his art, we love him for who he is, what he represents. i would strongly recommend that you react to more Ren stuff but even if you choose not to, check him out in your own time i promise you won't be disappointed. the one thing i have seen Ren completely incapable of doing is disappointing! also, the RENegades will flock to you. if nothing else, it'll significantly grow your channel! much love to you and yours🙂🙂🙂❤❤❤
Dude, you’ve just started a massive journey. All REN’s stuff is varied and excellent.
The thing to remember about this is that he wrote it, he played it, remembered all the lyrics, acted as the characters, and most impressively, it’s one take. Most of his are. He does multiple live takes and pick the best. He has a lav mic on.
Just go check out his catalog. It’s all great. Some is stories like this (Jenny and Screech Trilogy). Others are more rap based. I don’t care for rap, but all his stuff is good. He’s extremely talented.
Straight away clicked on this, my fave reactors and my fave musicians
I've been a subscriber for a while for your movie reactions, and never would i have anticipated this to happen 🤩
Ren is a one in a generation artist, and he has a ton of stuff in his back catalog.
Trust me, there's something for everyone there.
Welcome to the roller-coaster ride of your life and the rabbithole that is Ren.
The renegades will be right there with you 🐇🕳🖤
Did not know u guys u existed, but Ren, YES!! Subbed for more Ren!! The Renegades will find u soon! One of the greatest artist of our time imho! A Dr of Philosophy and 50 years old. Never seen this level in an artist!
Just wait!! He will shock u every single time!!
Loved your reaction to this. Can't wait to see your journey down the rabbit hole 🕳️😊
Ren is an amazing artist, I look forward to you reacting to some of his other epic works.
Ren is such an amazingly talented lyricist, musician, and performer! Definitely recommend checking out/reacting to his other songs!
Welcome to Ren. You cry and laugh on this journey. ❤
So glad you’ve discovered Ren!
I have a jacket from his last merch drop!
He’s such a gift to the world.
♥️
Thanks for sharing your first step into the Ren Journey with us!! The three of you slayed it and I hope you do more Ren. Money Game 3, and the Tales of Jenny and Screech (The Trilogy together) are great ones to do next!
The Tale of Jenny & Screech (Jennys Tale, Screeches Tale & Violets Tale, all 3 in one go need to be done) - Do That
Hi production values on a Ren reaction video - and I've seen a few!! Glad you guys discovered him.
"LOSING IT" is my favorite rap song. However, he has so many favorites. Ren is such a genius; and he's got such impactful songs.
MORE REN PLEASE!
Just found you through Ren. Because you appear to be interested, introspective, insightful reactors, Ren will absolutely blow your minds. I am here for it. ❤
There is one I highly recommend called "The tale of Jenny and Screech", it's a trilogy of songs that tell an incredible story.
My favorite reactors stepping into the music video genre to review my favorite music video. You chose the right one to step outside your norm!
Wow!!! So glad to see this reaction.❤
Oh guys... please please PLEASE do more Ren! You will NOT regret it. He hits every genre, topic, emotion.. He plays multiple instruments, is a sing Shakespeare. He lines his songs with both pop culture and education. You will find much like Orwell and Vonnegut influenced songs, on history and more! He's also an amazing sotry teller and ACTOR. And ALMOST all his videos ARE done LIVE!
You're going to notice a bump in your subscriber and view counts. We call that "The Ren Effect." It's an infusion of fanatics that all share an appreciation for talent and truth. Watch a few more Ren videos and you'll become Renegades yourselves.
I will never get bored of that stunned silence reactors get as he puts the guitar down for the last time
With how thorough you are, the Money game series by Ren I consider to be the most important message in music rn.
Well this is a lovely surprise .....The Ren rabbit hole is a wonderland .....
In my opinion, one of the most important messages in this song is the dismissal of the supernatural.
Mental illness is a human condition and it requires human solutions. When people characterize it as being supernatural the fight becomes impossible. How can someone suffering from such a thing think they can beat an all-powerful, eternal, immortal, supernatural entity?
Telling people suffering from such things that it's a "demon" or other such nonsense can only ever disarm them completely.
I love Ren for doing this. It's such an important thing to bring these problems down to the human level and make it surmountable.
You are just starting your Ren Journey! He has over 200 songs on his channel! Enjoy!
I’m so jealous of you, I was never much into rap but Ren is different!
Well this was a pleasant surprise. One of my favorite react channels reacting to you on my favorite artists. Fck yeah!
1) 100% in support of Ren reactions!
2) The real reason I’m commenting is mega props to your video editing. Tons of subtle really awesome stuff you’ve done in post! Super nice
What a wonderful reaction . I first heard this song in Feb of 2023 and am now a die hard Ren fan. Love his art, his music , his humor ,his outlook integrety, vulnerability and his character. The Tales of Jenny and Screech are in his own top 5 creations, and the Money Game Trilogy is well worth your time. Ren and Cinchilla together in Chalk Outlines live. Is pure magic.
I subbed for more Ren pretty please. ❤
RENagade here - as a 60+ year old, the closest musical talent comparison to REN I can make is Prince. The feelings I get from REN was the same when I heard Purple Rain. REN is going down the same non-music industry cookie cutter as Prince. Enjoy your REN rabbit hole dive! I will subscribe to your channel for more reviews! ❤
Absolutely more Ren, both from a substance as well as production perspective it's all impressive
I'm here for more Ren. You've already got plenty of recs, I agree with them all. Commenting to add to the boost/engagement stats.
Glad you guys found this...this song sooo powerful. You should check out his journey as an artist PLUS his other songs.
When Eric said, Its like he is surfing in chaos. I absolutely felt that it was like that the first time i heard this song.
My favorite reaction channel reacting to my favorite artist! Awesome!
Welcome to the party!
MOAR!
Surfing in the chaos is a great analogy for Ren. Dude’s pretty incredible, definitely check out more of his songs whenever you get the time!
Welcome! We will be here for every part of your Ren journey! Can’t wait!
One of the best reactions I've seen for this (and I've seen a *lot*). Great job, guys.
Was not expecting Ren to show up here. Love this song while its so personal to his story I think every creative can relate to the lyrics
Enjoy your Ren journey great reaction. ✌️❤️🏴
This has made me a very happy chap today. Not only my fav Channel but my fav artist. REN is a rabbit hole u MUST go down
“It’s like he’s surfing on the chaos.”
This is why no one should hold their thoughts back. Absolutely spot on simile.
Wow was not expecting you guys to react to Ren. This is awesome he has soo many songs to listen to
I discovered Ren 2 years ago and he very quickly become my favorite artist, As a Blind Wave fan for at least 8 years I never would have expected this reaction but it makes me incredibly happy
Welcome in to the world of Ren. It is at this point that I feel so excited for you.
The journey that you are about to begin, is simply AMAZING.
I can not wait to watch your journey.
I've never heard of this song before but this was crazy in an awesome way. Also, Obi is crazy adorable. Loved it!
My prayers have been answeeeerreeeed! You guys are gonna love the tales. Also this is live... No I'm not kidding. This was recorded in the nine minutes you saw.
Ten
Ren is brilliant, do more please
I've been subscribed to you guys for close to 8 years now. With Star Wars being the main reason of course. I value and respect your opinion on a plethora of subjects, etc. But can I just say, I absolutely LOVED watching you guys reacting to music. Was not expecting this reaction at all. I love Ren. This video of Ren in particular blew me away and still resonates with me till this day. It was so nice to see you guys reacting to this. Please do more reactions of Ren. And just music reactions in general. I think I speak for everyone when I say that we all feel like we're your friends. We've never met, and I doubt we ever will. But it's so cool and refreshing to connect with you guys on a music level, you know? Truly loved this reaction. Much love to all of you.
I am such a big Ren fan and love seeing people experience his music for the first time, so yes more of this please. I don't always stick around for the discussion afterwards for some of these videos but this one I was locked in until the very end so thank you guys.
Rens music means so much to many people and I hope you guys have fun on this roller coaster ride down the Ren rabbit hole.
I am more than happy to ride t5hat wave with you all.
...The Tale of Jenny and Screech next please!!
Blind Wave reacting to Ren? Didn't expect that!! So glad you did it! He is amazing, can't listen this song without crying, every time.
i did not expect this reaction at all, but am so hype for it !! ren is such an amazing artist of our time, and do hope y'all consider listening in more to them whether it be on or off camera :)
