Ren - Sick Boi (Official Music Video)

- - -

Want to say a big thank you for everyones support over the years. During the years trapped inside with chronic health problems the main thing that kept me going was a belief that one day I would come out the other side, and be able to achieve success through music. I don’t have a label, and sometimes pushing these things as hard as I want becomes a massive challenge, and I find myself frustrated that there aren’t enough hours in the day to push it as far as I want to. I would love to ask a favour to anyone who has ever enjoyed my music over the years, and it will only take a few minutes of your day.It would mean the world to me if you shared ‘Hi Ren’ as much as you can, over social media platforms, with friends, over email. Together, and with your help I can hopefully reach people all over the world, and get one step closer to the dream I always had! Thank you so much for the support so far!

Sickboi is out on all streaming platforms now!!


As always here are the lyrics for anyone who wants them

Hi Ren thanks for coming today”

“Thanks for seeing me”

“ looking at your file here it seem s there’s a very apparent interplay  with your emotional state and your physical body. Have you heard of the trauma response?”

“Um, I don’t think so”

“Basically our bodies can get stuck in a negative feedback loop.
Our subconscious can repeat patterns from the past which can have a pretty drastic downstream effect on our biology.. Essentially… your mind is making you sick”

Sick boy sick boy,
Bitten by a tick boy,
Looking for that fix boy,
Anabolic steroids,
Stem cell poster boy,
Pass out, white noise
Quick fix, snake oil,
I'm about to break boy

Oh, what a shame he’s in pain have another go,
Take another pill, here, take a couple more 
Let see how your doing in another week or so 
You’ll be feeling worse when the side effect’ll show


De-realization medical patient 
Loosing patience with the process 
Walking hand in hand with satan 
Complications with the medication 
Inflammation, dehydration, inhalation aggravation
Building up a toleration
Drown sucker, drown sucker, drown sucker, drown
Ive been feeling like I’m drowning with my feet upon the ground
Ive been screaming I’ve been shouting I but I never make sound
Ive been looking for a way out but I always seem to drown


“Is this all making sense Ren?”

“Yeah, I think so”

“Good, what I propose we do is try to pinpoint the exact experiences from the past that are keeping you stuck.

What can you tell Mme about your childhood?”

“I can’t really think…”

“Its okay if nothing comes up right away,

What id like you to do is take some deep breaths with me,

In and out, In and out

Good now tell me the first thing that comes to your mind…”

I feel like its not me, its the world that’s sick
Were given everything we need and we commodities it
We consume, we destroy like were parasitic
Science tells us that its suicide and still we commit
Im not sick, we are sick, we are standing on a cliff
In the name of progress we jump off the precipice 
Im not sick I’m the virus, you’re the virus, hypocrite!
How can you sit there with that smile on
And tell me that I’m sick?

Sick boy,  sick boy, looking for a fix boy
Push it down in public quick pose for the pic boy
Record label meetings that commodify your gift boy
Why you so upset?
Don’t you wanna be a rich boy?

Fuck no 
Industry is cut throat

Ive been doing bits by myself swimming back stroke
Walking on a tight rope
Rapping with a slit throat
The way that we persist is like the ending of a bad joke

As the people evolve
Were complacent to assailants 
And we  do what we’re told
Counter intelligence, a sight to behold
Rape the earth of all resources and we bleed it for gold

We bleed it for wealth, we bleed it for fame
But when you bleed it can you tell me what the fuck will remain?
And I bleed in myself
I bleed in my brain
While I’m bleeding, I’m the reason
Cause I’m doing the same

[Chronically_Kimberly]

Here, after youtube, put this back up.
I have a feeling that I'm not the only one who came back to save the video to my phone, so I'll always have it.

[FGF-]

Don't forget this is the original upload, not a reupload. That means that copyright strike was nullified. GET IT Ren! This is one of my fav songs rn. So glad it's back!

[robertproctor]

I have NEVER been as invested in an artist the way I am invested in Ren. Just seeing this reappear on YouTube has ELATED me.

[brandonbuckles]

I'm officially down the rabbit hole. I've spent the last 3 hours just going through your videos. I can't get enough. You're damn good

[leecowell]

Guess who’s back? Back again! Sickboi’s back, tell a friend

[nelb]

WELCOME BACK SICK BOI!! We missed you very much!
This song means so much to so many…. Sick Boi isn’t just another song it’s a therapy! Thank you YouTube thank you Ren xxx 😊😊😊😊😊 xxx

[The_galavanting_frog]

I honestly don't think you need the music industry to thrive as an artist, Ren. You are blowing up the internet all on your own. You are making waves

[SyrinxAlgiz]

Love that the group over at Rens Rabbit Hole are doing a push to get this up to 8 Million.

[Deeb]

62 yr old woman bouncing around the living room screaming from the top of my lungs- Common sense has prevailed. Can’t stop smiling. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I’m with you Ren.

[Pint-Shot-Riot]

I know Ren is a musical Genius, but can we talk about how this man seems to have a plethora of dingy basements at his full disposal. :)

[harleystonier]

Sick Boi is more than just a song; it’s a poignant exploration of mental health, identity, and the complexities of human emotion. Ren’s ability to blend relatable lyrics with an engaging musical style makes this a powerful anthem for those navigating their own struggles. By opening up about his experiences, he not only connects with his audience but also encourages others to embrace their vulnerabilities, fostering a supportive community in the process. Can never get enough. ❤

[kimbafromrive]

Forget ALL the charts...all the noise and those influencers...REN is straight up our independent ARTIST OF THE YEAR! Every track and video is better than the last! This artist is a lyrical genius with an incredible and rare ability to touch every human emotion and vulnerability we feel and experience. Not many could possibly compare!

[jayschmeezy]

From the bottom of my heart, I hope this song gets it's own fucking renaissance and doubles its views. This whole journey was a literal lesson in "don't mistake my kindness for weakness", which I feel is something you've been shouting from the rooftops since the beginning. The way you handled this with patience and empathy but stood your ground is something that is going to stick with me for a very long time. Glad we have our Sick Boi back!

[karemwithanem]

I'm gloating with joy over this decision. YOU DESERVE IT REN! THANK YOU YOUTUBE!

[Bear-Jew]

"Sick Boy" is a part of the culture now. A national treasure. This song belongs to people and should never be "removed" in any way. I am sooo... freaking happy to see it back on YT. F. yeah, Ren!

[chelfyn]

I'm 53, and it seems from the comments that your music is connecting with a lot of us older people. Maybe it's because we grew up with music that meant something and have been starved for this. Suddenly because of youtube, we have found something that transcends the commercial meaningless garbage and it shines like a jewel when we've been stuck in a lake of shit. Ren, you deserve your fantastic independent success. Keep it up you sick boi.

[hytek]

The irony in parts of this song and what happened is not lost on us. Happy to see it back, and congrats, Ren.

[elieguill]

I am literally shaking and crying. I just don't have words to describe how happy i am. IT'S BACK, BABY! YESS!!

[andreyandonov]

The mystic of Bulgarian voices and Ren!!!! OMG
