That's for watching!! If anyone wants to see the latest video I did with Sam that we talked about it's here - song is called "Best Of Myself" and means a lot to me 🙏 kzhead.info/sun/dJiHm5V6iHOXd68/bejne.htmlsi=oZefF0XnVgFOwbWb
It’s a great piece of art all around
❤❤❤❤❤
We had a great chat about societal problems and about "coming together" here. React to Ren's "Eden". It really feeds into that. Very curious what you think about it.
Watched the premiere already ..three times. It's amazing!!! Thank you for sharing your vulnerability. 💜
I haven't Heard best of me yet. I'm excited to hear it! I'll watch it right after this interview 💖
A few weeks ago I walked through the centre of my city which has some 50k citizens and for the first time heard somebody blast Rens music from his open car window. Crazy to see how a passion can spread so far that it can catch up with one irl, so happy for Ren and his success
I live in small market town - and same happened!! Dashed out of shop to see car but missed it!
It's me, I'm the guy blasting Ren.
LET’S GO!!! All my grandkids and kids ALL singing ren songs! My granddaughter3 picks up her little guitar every time a Ren song plays and she named her action figure ren
I'm playing it loud in my car lol 🏴
I live in a city of nearly 200,000 people and I haven’t spoke to most of them, but the people I have spoke to, my friends have never heard of Ren.. I would say only about 2 or 3 people out of my social circle actually HAVE heard of him! It’s fair to say that they are all missing out on this man’s ability!
So, let me tell you a little story. A few years ago I came across this kid, (I'm 54 now, so this was a kid to me), I loved his music. I told my then 12 yr old daughter about him. Well, I'm mom so she shrugged me off. Fast forward a couple years and this kid had a new song. I wasn't shocked, but I was surprised how powerful it hit. This little song was "Hi Ren". I sat my daughter down, had her watch it. All of a sudden I knew what I was talking about, I was almost cool. I sent the link to nieces and nephew. They then sent it on to their friends, and so on. So, thank you Ren for making this old lady almost cool for a moment in my daughters mind. Just know I'm holding the KCMO area down for you, and for you too Knox! Love you both!
such a sweet story
Hey, I'm holding down the other part Missouri just outside of the Lou, and watch that "old" talk, I'm 54 years young 😋. I also need you to have your daughter contact my daughter, and son, ASAP and inform them of Ren's awesomeness, apparently Ren's music hasn't hit their friends circle yet, and they won't give it a chance cause it's "dad's music"..lol. I can't wait til it does though and they have to admit they love it. Is it wrong that I will take pleasure seeing them have to eat their words?? 😂😂
@@sunshynff I bet you that one day they'll come across his music, fall in love with it, then act like THEY discovered it, NOT you. Lmao!! I basically had to sit on her to sit still to watch something I wanted her to see.
That's brilliant ❤
54 is not old. You are still young. 80s 90s, they are old.
My husband was going through a really bad time because he has ptsd due to being in the military. I showed him the end of hi ren so he could see there are others who know how hard life can be and it helped. So i have to thank a young man for helping a 66 year old feel much better to the fact hes still here. I think people are more tribal .seems we're going back to the times when we had tribes and clans .but if people just chill we would all be happier. We should all realise we are all 1 race .the human race. Just my oppinion. Just love and respect that's all people need.❤
Love this, good idea just showing the end if it's triggering.
My teen daughter is recovering from stem cell transplant, you are a strong inspiring person❤
Wishing her a speedy recovery x
Wishing her a speedy recovery and sending my best wishes!!💖
All the best to your daughter 💛

Ren deserves all the success he’s getting. I’m looking forward to hearing his 25,000 word story.
As a guy in a wheelchair battling health for most of my life, I can’t agree more when he said we need to laugh more about things. Humor relitavizes things and put things in perspective like anything else. My situation doesn’t get any better ever, so I might just laugh and joke about it rather than sitting in the corner crying and being mad at things can’t change. Deal with it, and make the most of it.
Ren is not only schooled on all different genres of music, he is educated about geopolitics. This guy is intelligent and he's put in the work. He's one of the few recognizable people out there who I recommend people stop and take a minute or two to really listen to what he has to say. Ren knows his history. Much can be learned from Ren and people like him. They are few and far between but I feel a shift occurring. I feel a good shift in people yet I also feel an evil shift amongst the controllers. It's a race now. The only question is who will make it to the finish line first: Good or evil. Props to you Ren.
LOVED this interview once again. Deep topics, funny topics, hype announcements. It had EVERYTHING and then some. Thanks Knox and thanks Ren!
You're the super fan I needed. Thanks for all the things you've posted. I don't really use social media so you help keep me updated.
Ren mentioned the reincarnated Ren and the old Ren and to some it might not make sense but I resinate with him as I was dealing with my mom with Alzheimer’s and read a poem called My Two Moms in which it talked about the mom that she grew up with the living and caring mom and now her new mom who doesn’t even know her name or remember who she is. That concept hit home and when I went to visit my mom as my new mom I was more joyful to visit my mom and get to know my new mom and still cherish my old mom. Once I separated the two my emotional roller coaster smoothed out and I was ready to spend her final days with a smile, comfort and support instead of tears and anger as to why this happened to my mom at such a young age. Now I can say I Love both of my moms!
I feel this so deeply. ❤
This comment hit me hard. I lost my mom to Alzheimer's on the eighth of January (the day before my birthday) this year. I took care of her for almost an entire decade. She had an aid during the day; but at night it was me caring for her. I watched the decline from the very beginning; which was actually the hardest part. (When she thought that she could still do things that she actually couldn't anymore.) It's the hardest thing I've ever done in my entire life and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. My mom was a great mom. Only people like us know what it's like to miss someone who's right in front of you. I'm glad you managed to have a brighter outlook about it than me
everything about this new album- Everything- Tarantino- b roll horror vibe- got me excited!! BRING IT!!
America will give Ren the anonymity he probably needs and deserves because I cannot imagine sadly having that freedom now in Brighton…but this is his journey to travel as he sees fit. So go and lose yourself and be kind to yourself…you’ve given us more than enough of you. Much love and warmest wishes from Scotland 🫶🏻🤍🏴 Angela
Nah fat boy slim lives 8n Brighton and no problem. Fat boy slim is a massive star. Ren will be fine
Hey I agree but as I stay in Scotland too that kinda eliminates the chance of seeing him 😅 very lucky Americans 😂
Hi…I don’t see that it will eliminate a chance to see him. He’s said touring will be difficult as he’s always going to be in some form of recovery. For now he needs to be close to his Drs in Calgary so basing himself in America makes sense, and whilst there he has an opportunity to network with the people he needs/wants to for creative reasons plus I think him and Sam discussed wanting to do a Netflix series. He’s too loyal to his fan base and who knows who’ll get to see him first but for me he’s just a guy catching up on all the things he’s missed out on, gap years travel 😊 time for just him and America is big enough to allow him to have his cloak of invisibility….for now. Warmest wishes and 🤩🤞🏻for when he does tour as Scotland will welcome him with our great big hugs 🫶🏻🤍🏴
@@angelb-oo7ob I agree completely and understand his position. Very happy for his success and I bet all this will be a positive on his heath as well. Such a genius and genuine person I'm in awe ❤️
@@Ellie-Bentley 🫂🥰🤍
If Ren doesn’t deserve it no one does , not only his sickness he’s put time in to his talent , he was actually delayed 10 years because of his sickness
im just a random dude in south florida and i bump ren at least once a week drivin around . never been a better time to be a music fan imo
💯...I bump it in Northwestern Wisconsin. Me and the cows love it. 😂
Bumping in Ohio. I go from Ren to Prof to Slaughter to Prevail. Music is awesome
Hearing Ren’s story and becoming a huge fan of his music has helped me step forward and start writing again. Ive written 14 pages of my comic book script so far, which doesnt seem much over the past few months, but its huge compared to years and years with the idea floating around in my head. To see the trials and tribulations he had to go through, made me realize I can “stand on my own 2 feet” and start expressing the story ive wanted to tell my whole life
Congratulations! That's huge!
Letsssss goooo !
That’s great!
Love how Ren is so honest and transparent about everything. Thanks Knox and Ren for this great interview. Much love to the both of you ❤
We can't wait for Ren to come to the US!!! We welcome Ren with open hearts!!!
I'm from bolivia and rens music filled my life with so many emotions man. I hope he knows that he have fans in bolivia (at least one).

Ren should never feel he doesn't deserve his success. As he says, the effort he put in was phenomenal and the sheer pleasure and joy he brings to his listeners is uncountable.
Ren and Knox, two multi talented, intelligent interesting brilliant human beings. Equally proud of both of them , long may their deserved success continue 🙏🙏🙏
The BEST interview I’ve ever seen Two mates (“friends”for non Aussies) just being mates, 😮covering important topics. One of Knox best interviews, so many great interviewers have to insert themselves constantly but Knox found a perfect balance here and allowed his questions and Rens answers to be front and center
Perfectly said mate 👍🏻🥰🇦🇺
Excuse me !! We (Brits) lent you the word ' Mates ' Bloody cheek 🤣🤣🤣
💯.. Right on!
So nice to see a genuine friendship and respect on both sides for their talents 😊
Ren is my favourite Welsh person! Great interview
He is my favorite musician, artist and human being. On his new daily drops called "Chapters" he explains his special treatment (on chapter 2) for being Welsh..😂. He is doing these readings about his life (after he started getting sick) every day leading up to his new music video drop "May 9th". These stories fill in the details of his music and what he meant when he said some of those cryptic lines. It all makes sense now. I love your Ren reactions...btw.
Considering that we got Seven Sins the last time Ren "accidentally" made new art, I can't bloody wait for Slaughterhouse!! Great interview, loved the topics and the flow of conversation
"This Ren doesn't belong to the old Ren; he's a reincarnation" ... jfc, I was just describing this about myself to my therapist like 3hrs ago. It's essential to how I'm able to process my cPTSD and move forward.
Smart move for Ren to relocate to the US. Once he hits in the US his career is going to explode even more. And close to the Dr in Calgary is great.
As a consumer, I’ve been getting skeptical lately of KZhead’s boxes starting to make this niche of creators TOO boxed in and losing their sense of selves. But I see now from an interview like this, that you guys are just playing the chess game to have a place to put your art and get paid as an artist and you’re still some real ones. I trust you guys and that’s a dope feeling for me as a consumer 🙏🏻 you guys get it; thank you ✌🏻
Don't worry, UK. We'll take good care of him. :D
🤗
You can almost watch his mind working when he talks. Brilliant mind. Keep doing what you are doing. Both of you.
I love his ADHD brain. I can so relate lol Apparently lots to come from our boy Ren. Wishing him the best of luck and the best of health from this fellow rabbit 🐰 🖤
Damn right! 🐰
Yes,it was shining bright today, he was enjoying himself. He’s a very funny man. Knox was awesome, letting it flow.
Personally I hate labelling, it's just his brain that spawns his genius. Not ADHD. In my opinion. There was no ADHD labelling as I grew up, but lots of talented artists. I feel like it's a dishonour to say yeah you're this good, thanks to ADHD. No you're just this good.
I was called hyperactive in my youth. Does that mean I have ADHD? No, I was just me
@matmachin9992 I think its great they have a diagnosis for Adh, adhd. Certainly in my family, they can name it. It can help them navigate life better.
Ren is so underrated. What a human
Just a few seconds in, already crying happy tears at "I can pursue any medical treatment I want"🎉🎉🎉
Can't believe I didn't see this. The legend himself Ren with Knox
It wasn’t live. Filmed yesterday with live comments today.
They are good friends
That sick SickBoi top from the Nas Halftime Retake video that Ren's wearing...man I hope that shows up in the merch store.
Congratulations Ren... you deserve the recognition, along with your mates, for the art that comes through... Ren has hit me harder than anything for years now
As an old hippie mama who loves you both, DO NOT EVER censor yourself or your creativity! You both are so incredibly talented and authentic and it would be a great disappointment if you weren't your authentic selves. Stay true to you. Those of us who love you l, know that the culture of the music is alot of boasting...but it's the nature of the genre. Have fun! Be creative! Continue to inspire! BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, stay true! ❤
The energy and outlook of Ren… I’d actually call it forward thinking is just wow… And let me say this about Knox Hill. For one his interviewing skills are just WoW. Also he single handily made me listen to music differently.. listen is the wrong word… I HEAR all music and appreciate music all music differently now!
Suddenly my afternoon is looking up
i cant think of anyone who deserves success more than you and ren
An interview between you two never feels like an interview……just feels like two friends having a chat….that’s what I love. Thanks to you both 💜🔥
I discovered Ren when I was at my lowest point in my life (mentally and physically). these titles allowed me to move forward and see things differently so I can never say thank you enough❤
Hi REN, expressed differing views from differing perspectives, opposites even, and laid it all on the table, bare, naked, horrible and beautiful, dark and light, hate and love, human, divine, and evil …… so incredible, and that’s why it broke our hearts, as it all in each of us, but rarely revealed, and so I deeply cried from the depths of my heart, every time I heard it. Thank you so much for this vulnerable gift.
Ren is an 'old soul'.... "It's the small things that drive men mad... the snapping of a shoelace with no time left...." - Charles Bukowski
“I don’t know if there are any Shoulds in Art.”
Right?
It should be artistic? 😂😂😂
I think Ren has such a beautiful soul, and this was a great interview to watch.
I'm watching this again. I could listen to these two chat for days ❤
I am as well....😂. I got a pile of dishes to clean up and thought I'd listen again while doing brainless work. 😊
Being sick, physically and psychologically for half your life is something very few people understand. I do. I am 38 and have been sick since I was a young teen, so over 20 years of talk therapy, cbt,dbt, electroconvulsive therapy twice. I connect with your journey. Stay strong hot stuff ❤
Everytime Ren opens his mouth, what seems impossible, happens. I love him more. Hats off & love to you too Knox. What a great interview. ❤
Just letting everyone know we actually have a bookclub on Rens discord! We are currently reading Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut. We meet every Saturday 😁 We will be starting our next book mid June!
Hi from Saskatchewan Canada. I just found your music and I want to tell you I’ve really connected with it in a few different ways. I was just diagnosed with autoimmune after about 12 yrs of doctors telling me it was all in my head and feeling like I was going crazy. The other reasons are regarding my children my daughter is 16 yrs old and has always had complex medical issues but this last year everything has progressed and get really bad and nobody knows why. This time last year she was running around and riding a bike and now she’s in a wheelchair most of the time and is only awake for 4 hours in a 24 hour period. On her 16th birthday (July 2023) she could only manage to sleep and was heart broken. Also my two boys have struggled with mental health issues and I’ve had 2 sisters who have committed suicide. To me your music touches on so many of the battles my kids and I experience in our brains and our emotions, with our bodies, regarding medications and the pros and cons, doctors, the trauma, trying to explain it to others, fighting desperately to remain hopeful . Thank you for putting into words what I’ve been experiencing for many many years with my health and with watching my children go through the same. To be honest I’ve really been struggling this last couple of months and your music has reminded me that I’m not a quitter
Wow.
I'm at a loss for words at what you must be going through personally and with your children. I see you. Hugs from Ontario. ❤
@@optimistinmyprime thank you- the hardest thing any parent can experience is watching their child deteriorate and be in pain and not being able to do anything and so far none of the doctors can figure out why it’s happening. The cherry on the sundae is my daughter is going through so much physically, emotionally, and medically and understandably is struggling with her mental health saying her life sucks because she’s always in pain and or sleeping and my son is struggling mentally with having to watch his sister go through all of this and he’s stressed so bad his auditory hallucinations are returning and the doctors are refusing both of them mental health help. Both of them begging for therapy/counselling. They’ll put them on pills but won’t offer counselling or any other kind of talk therapy because they are autistic and delayed. The doctor straight out said she refuses to refer them because she doesn’t think they are capable and it would be a waste of time. I’ve been mentally, emotionally, and physically overwhelmed and heartbroken and felt like I was sinking. One night while I was up all night watching my daughters seizures, tremors, heart rate, and breathing I discovered Ren and watched Hi Ren, Sick Boi, and Chalk Outlines over and over all night long bawling because those three songs resonated so much I felt it in my soul. That night renewed my strength and stubbornness and I became a Ren fan
@@TrishiDowns Lots of love to you and your family from the UK. 💛
You can stand on your two feet (metaforically)! It is really hard, I'm truly sorry for this happening to you (or others), I hope that your family finds some specialist to help you (mentally or with body), therapy saved so many lives, I don't get why they can't help autistic children... (I would drop my cool, really, in your situation. Who other can help if doctors can't?!)
I’m 65yrs old and I have life-long friends and even though we can have opposing opinions or beliefs, the common denominator is we can all agree to disagree. just respect others opinions simple.
Great interview. What ren was saying about comedy and people taking themselves too seriously and being offended by a joke or something said jokingly, but still acknowledging that some things need to be called out. That's exactly the way I've come to look at it. Ren has the right attitude, the right outlook, and he is a very intelligent person. And l love his music and lyrics and his diversity with music. I'm pulling for ren.
💯
To look at my difficulties and joke about it and seeing the humor in very crazy and tragic situations have helped me. Sugarcoated behavior that tiptoe around things, never addressing it head on because of ridiculous behavior codes of what can be experienced as offensive, is really damaging. My experience is that it leads to less true compassion because things are never discussed to the degree that leads to understanding of the plights of others, and the value of their life experience. Never seeing the strength of the person suffering, just a weakling that can't tolerate even slight discomfort although the same person has gone through endless difficulties and endured. And you often realize that prejudices simmer just under this nice looking surface because the person has never really seen you.
100% Humor is what gets you through it, and what puts people at ease to actually talk about it.
I feel for Ren I struggled with mental health illness and there’s days where you have to take time off days to do the inner healing and as frustrating as that can be cause I am constantly on the go i have to listen to my body if not I end up crashing!
Loving this. So much eloquently spoken intelligence.
Feel great! I moved this vid from 2.9K to 3K likes because I really appreciated the convo
Did you hear him?! He said he is coming to the States!!! Woohoo!! Be well Ren. Take care of your body and your mind. And if you can, come to Idaho.
Here we go again, buckle up. New music, new interviews its gonna be a ride again.
Look after your health first 100% and what great news you can afford your treatment!!! Love from your self proclaimed, unofficial Brixton grandma xxx
Should know US is already big fans US needs more Vonnegut readers Bring it over!
Ren, there a woman called Lindsey Sterling, she is a incredible violinist. I think the both of you would sound Dynamite together! Food for thought man. Love you.
It must be great to be able to just park one thing and go back to it after something else exciting was happening. No signed artist would be able to do this without massive pressure from the industry. So glad Ren has stayed independent and is doing well enough from his music financially to not have to lose his soul to the vile, manipulative music industry. It's joyous to watch this, honesty and integrity with no f@cks given and no one censoring the conversation.
REN, YOUR INSIGHT ON THE WORLD IS SO DEEP. I WISH PEOPLE WOULD THINK AT YOUR LEVEL. SO MANY PEOPLE ARE SHALLOW AND DON'T SEE THE WORLD AND WHAT IT HAS BECOME. SO MANY YOUNG PEOPLE FEEL ENTITLED AND WHAT SOCIETY OWES THEM RATHER THAN WHAT THEY CAN DO FOR SOCIETY. I HOPE YOUR MUSIC WILL INFLUENCE PEOPLE TO DO BETTER. ❤❤❤❤
Ren will get #1 in the USA. Just let him go at his own pace. Hopefully, he will rest enough but maybe we just don't need to encourage him to slow down. Just let him create by God's grace!! ❤❤❤❤❤
What a beautiful person…stay on the path of positivity! Thoughts are with you on your healing path….
What a great interview. Knox is really natural and giving Ren space to share. Really enjoying this
I play Ren's music constantly....LOUD! I'm so inspired by his music and all he has been through. I have so much respect for his strength and resilience. Love!!!!!
Knox and Ren. Thank you both very much for this. ✌️
29:35 and proof of healing, right here! Stay strong! Know you are seen and heard.
10:10 I like this bit, it harkens back to 'Hi Ren' and the bit "music Is all about the creative process and if people can find Something to relate to within that, then that's just a bonus". In the song it's said by the negative ego in a really sarcastic manner, but it's clear it's what Ren really believes.
Your friendship with Ren is so beautiful. Both of you have enriched my life with your music. Many thanks to you and Ren!
Thank you Ren and Knox. Love your friendship ❤
The second I put any song from you, I instantly smile. Amazing that you have that ability
Thanks for this gentlemen ❤ Gtsy Ren :-)
I want to hear more of Ren's southern American accent 🤣🤣
Nooooo 😂😂
I feel attacked! 😂🤣😬
The illest of our time. Got me back into music. Respect for both Ren and Knox.
This cheered me up. Lovely chat. Thanks. ❤️
Take things by faith REN your looking good 😂❤😊
Hadn't expected this and pleased to have stumbled across it. Listening to two interesting people talking to one another makes a good way to start the day.
Two of the nicest guys around. Always love these interviews between Knox and Ren.
My husband and I are from America and we love you!!! Your music has been such a gift to us. If you come to America we're definitely getting tickets!
👏🏼👏🏼 A round of applause for this interview, Knox. 👏🏼👏🏼 I really enjoyed watching you two chatting.
F the top my blood the people who found your music respect it! Ren bro put that same drive into your health! You’re loved respected and people who do will respect you for it! And if you fall off for a second soo freaking what! Your music and message will carry you right back to the top! I got bats in my belly when you said you’re coming to America! ❤ all of us here
🏴🏴🏴 Much love from Glasgow 👌😁
If I'm ever feel down, self-pitying, self-doubting, etc., etc., there's nothing like a dose of Ren music or Knox-and-Ren interview to knock me upside the head and make me come to my senses. 🦁
I'm into the cutting edge of music and have been listening to Ren since people were making Tik Toks of him busking. When I heard Hi Ren blasting downstairs from my wife I knew he had made it.
Knox that was an amazing interview as always, you are so relaxed with Ren, we can really see your friendship coming through. Would love it if you perform at SGP!!!! 💙
is to only me ,but when Ren speak its sound always like a song .just amazing to lising to
Been looking for a way to send fan message to Ren. I was just introduced from my husband to Rens music about a month ago and now i have to listen to him daily as much as possible. THRILLED to hear you will be in the US more! Im in Alabama and can hope to see you live one day! Your music and your story hit me so close to home. I'm about a decade older but have been through cancer and long-term mental health and chronic illness for so long with minimal help from Drs. So your music i can really relate to so much. You are so extremely talented and just an amazing speaker, singer, musician, all the above! I pray for the best for you in your health and career and life in general. You are truly valued by your fans and I can't wait for more people to hear what they've been missing when they first hear from the Great Ren Gill!! I absolutely live off listening to your videos on KZhead and constantly asking Alexa to play The Big Push! Apparently Alexa only has one song from just under your name. Looking forward to being able to play sick boi everywhere. Looking forward to Merch and just want you to know how special you truly are inside and out to those of us fans that can relate to your pain. I wasn't quite as young as you when going through the shit, but at 37 in a cancer waiting room with elderly people all around, i sure felt young and so hard to get out of bed and be a mom with the chronic pain and meds and never ending. I always love learning what you are doing medically to feel better and heal. My youngest 16 year old has Pots as well and also relates to your medical journey. I would love to find someone to help her like you've found in Canada. Please take care of yourself first and foremost. That's what is true fans want mostly! I just joined patreon and think it's great you have a free option. Im also keeping up with you on Bandcamp and really anywhere i can learn more of this amazing encouraging person that's overcome similar medical and mental journey. Keep doing what makes YOU happy! Hugs from Bama!!!! ❤❤❤
Ren, I found your music when "Hi Ren" first hit utube. I nave been showing your music to everyone I know. So many people are amazed by you. Love from Edmonton, Alberta ❤❤❤❤❤.
❤ Every time I hear Ren talking and Tuomas Holopainen talking, I just have the feeling of them being some kind of kindle spirits. And I just want to make them find each other. If nothing else, just talking with each other. Please @Knox Hill help me make that happen. Somehow. Tell Ren to read this: Tuomas: "The human species has enormous potential. 99% of us are really good guys - empathetic and altruistic." These are key themes on Nightwish's upcoming album. The band wants to remind us that the world is getting better every year in many ways. "Every time I hear a politician on TV talking about the good old days, my hair stands up. Would you rather go to the dentist today or 50 years ago?" Holopainen asks. For Holopainen, music is also a means of influence. He not only hopes and dreams of making the world a better place through his music, but also sees it as his mission. "We have a duty to Mother Earth to at least try to leave our planet in better shape when we leave than when we arrive. The means are endless." " ❤
Don’t give so much of yourself there’s nothing left for you, Ren. Your only obligations is to your creations. Don’t drain yourself by floodlighting in the process. Your truth is in your art, that’s enough. Art heals by and in itself. ❤❤❤
😂😂 actual books for the book club..😂😂 loved the interview.❤
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh fuck. Treading that line. You've had so many serious helpful songs. Don't question your jokes Ren! Maybe I'm just too old but a jokes a joke, nothing is off limits. So glad I grew up when I did. We just took the piss out of each other every day, about the harshest things possible sometimes, it didn't hurt any of us just made our come backs harder.
Awesome chat guys. Thanks Knox and Ren ✌🖤
I'll admit I was sleeping on Ren a little bit started listening to him shortly after added nearly the whole discography to my Spotify playlist.
I love him, his older stuff is my current favorite. The music he made from being stuck in his bedroom over the yrs is the best. Ren's Demo CD vol. 1 and 2 and his Freckled Angels album. But I prefer his singing and guitar playing over the rap.
Thank you Ren. To be that close with people in our lives where we can laugh at our darkest moments, add a sliver of light regardless of the words we use. I want to see the nonsense in some of dark things ive experienced and NEED my tribe to laugh along with me, not treat me like a victim of it. Thanks guys for sharing all parts of you and keeping it real.
Oh Ren we will never disown you ❤❤❤❤
Knox needs to get caught up on all the Ren videos he hasn't reacted to yet before this new album comes out. Love Ren, Love Knox They are a pair now.
Gutted Ren is off to America but he has a lot of life to catch up on.. he deserves ANYTHING makes him happy x REALLY wish I was going to SGP now xx thanks Knox xx
