Ren - Money Game Part 2 Roasted Capitalism… and Called ME Out (First Reaction)

Video Description

Ren’s Money Game Part 2 didn’t just blow my mind… it ROASTED capitalism and completely called ME out in the process 😱💰 This isn’t just an economics lesson in rap form – it’s a brutal look at the economic abuse baked into our society, and how easy it is to point at “the system” while ignoring the three fingers quietly pointing back at us. It genuinely made me ask: what would I do for money? In this first-time reaction, I: • Break down how Ren uses a nursery-rhyme style to deliver devastating truths about power, wealth and survival • Explore the way he exposes the ladder we’re all told to climb – and why it’s rigged from the start • React (a little uncomfortably!) to the moments where the lyrics stop being about “them” and start feeling very much about me • Analyse his incredible vocal performance, that jazzy vibrato, and the studio polish that takes Part 2 beyond Money Game Part 1 • Talk about the storytelling, rhyme choices and production touches that make this feel like a full-on concept piece, not just a “rap song” As a multi‑award‑winning songwriter and lyric analyst, I’m obsessed with how Ren turns complex ideas about capitalism, scarcity and complicity into something you can’t stop listening to – and can’t stop thinking about afterwards. This one left me entertained, uncomfortable, and weirdly convicted all at the same time. If you loved Money Game Part 1, Hi Ren, or any of Ren’s more socially conscious tracks, you NEED to see this.
