“I made it through the dark days, phantom, looking at the roof you can stargaze” Now I know the first reference in this is the roof of the rolls Royce phantom which has stars on it. But there’s another reference here. Phantom as is Phantom of the opera. He’s a disfigured musical genius who is not taken seriously because of his appearance. Bas was not taken seriously because of his age. Someone playing the role of the phantom gets to go on stage in prestigious theatres in an amphitheater and when they look up at the roof, they see celebrities watching them. Stars! This is by far the coldest damn line. There is no other rapper who are able to add this detail into lyrics. I mean ever. Honestly. This line is both gangsta ‘and’ eloquent
Nice catch man, I love watching reaction to these bad boys because I miss some of the references, and that's a great one. Another cheeky one is in the "SIndhu Sesh" where he goes "I dream like Martin Luther, fall asleep to the sound of the Hoover" (Edgar Hoover who hated MLK), then he finishes the bars with "Black or white, we can be brothers" like MLKs speech, gnarly bars.
A Wiccan is a pagan, a "witch", hence the skirts or robes! Thank you for this reaction, I'm living in Sweden and discovering how Pete & Bas are making the rounds around Europe and the US is just...you know, peacemaking diplomacy at it's highest level. People from around the world coming together and enjoying art. Big props from Sweden!
Drummer and writer from the Netherlands here! Love how clever they are, their flows, their cadence, their layers, rhythmical and lyrical prowess! They're unbelievable.
Musician from Brazil here. Before them I wasn't really into Hip-Hop. Not for real anyway, but it's undeniable how good they are, and how much they love doing this. I can only hope to have that much fun when I'm that old.
"Pray for my sins on a Sunday" (confession); "I'm a drunk chef" (alcohol, wine, a stretch but it works); "Dome like a monk's head" (priest hairstyle, churches will typically have a domed roof); "Taste for the flesh" (communion wafers) The schemes are insane.
I've commented this a few times but you have to watch 60 minutes live ft dizzee rascal, skepta, lethal bizzle, jme etc... it's one of the greatest videos in grime history the energy is amazing you'd love it. Ps it's not actually 60 mins long only 20 ❤
Been watching you for a few months now and I gotta give you your flowers. It always surprises me how somehow you're like funny and high energy and deep and insightful and silly all in the same video AND still catching every bar lmao. There are so many trash music reactors so I love seeing ppl bring actual great content to the space. Respect!
Those lines starting with "Kickback ain't good for the work ethic..." and ending with "Finger lickin" actually have another layer of meaning- as is so often the case with Pete+Bas. They are actually describin what happens when you blast someone closeup with a shotgun... And these guys lived the life. They should know. You get "stuff" all over you, you need to go get an overhaul and paintjob and everything else (the "dents", ending with the car being "pearlescent"..) ... and then finally, the thoughts and regrets of a killer- those "chicken verses" which are actually just- "Damne! Had he only listened!" "Made it through the dark times indeed"! REAL OGs.. so mad respect!
hahahaha In Australia we do both depends on the rules at the star of the game! i listen to theses legends while i train it makes em smile every time!! Great reaction mate cheers!!
Yeah, he's sleeping on this one 🤷 He jumped on gangste shit the day after it was released 🤔 This one is on 145K in 4 days. It took gangster shit one week to reach 145K. I still have the screenshot to prove it 🤣
Bro, I gotta say that I absolutely love the way you come across. You have great personality and charisma and I can’t get enough of your sweet little dog. Oh and Pete & Bas was pretty good. I just bought this song from iTunes Store. I had 84p store credit sitting there and this song was 79p. No brainier.😂
Pete’s father introduced him to the mafia and they fought him a lot of what he knows, bas’s father use to run an underground bare knuckle fight ring, and when he was in school he knocked out one of his teachers.
In English uno if someone plays a plus 4 you can’t play anything after it. So you can go back and forth with plus twos and when you’ve had enough you can slap down a pick up 4 to make them draw all cards on the stack
A dinger is an old beat up car. He went from a busted ride to a ride with vents in the hood and it's shiny. Also a Wiccan is a witch, they work skirts, he's skirting a ride at night.
That TRACE/FREEHAND verse is 🔥 and rumor has it Pete's house was raided not long ago they found nothing and it's addressed in Bish Bash Bosh. Edit : A lot of miss Pete's control alt delete bar 🔥
The person that played the Draw 4 selects a color. If the Draw 2 is the color that was selected by the player that dropped the Draw 4, then yes you can put a Draw 2 on top of it.
LOL. First time I caught the Wiccan reference. That’s dope. I happen to BE Wiccan. It’s a Pagan religion, so he’s essentially making reference to Witches’ clothing with the line “Skirt in the dark like a Wiccan” while simultaneously flexing about his stealth in the dark. (“Skirting” something means to go around it or to avoid it.)
guy goes "idk if either of them are getting their doors kicked in by the feds" and bas says he chugs bombay then calls him a serial killer right after LOL
I like Your reactions, big hugs from Poland, You have great soul, life more most people is not easy but this is our one chance to be on this world. big hugs
They truly are those the guys better than established regardless if they write their own stuff or not but this song shows them writing whether it's fake or not again I don't care cuz you can write the best music in the world and I bet you a million people will try to perform it and they would not be able to perform it with such realness n cadence n style n chemistry n so much more takes a special type of person to be able to perform like this did you catch the I spill a man's beans I'm a drunk chef
for uno question, it depends on the house rules. my house, any special card can be played, so you throw me a +4, imma throw a reverse, you throw a +2 and so on. Worst chain i ever saw was mans ended up with a +24 or something like that, everyone was down to maybe 2-3 cards and he sitting there with the entire deck. mans pulled the impossible and came back with a win😂😂😂😂
The official rules of uno state that you can play a draw 2 on a draw 2 and a draw 4 on a draw 4. i think recently though the Uno twitter account has stated that you cant, despite it being in the original rule book. Uno is usually house rules
yes u can put a draw 4 on a draw 4 and it goes to the next. but only the same no 2s on 4s. thats USA rules. the drip and flow of these two makes them good but the bars bring it to another level
Gz on 100k subs All of there are utter bangers Too many men - Boy Better Know Octavian - Bet ft. Skepta + Micheal D Double E - Street Fighter Riddim Skepta - Track 5 Skepta - Ace Hood Flow Skepta - It ain’t safe Kano - 3 wheel up ft Giggs A$AP Rocky - Praise the Lord Tempa T - Next Hype
Yo dipper whats good man. I know it aint a patron request but try to get round to doing Suspect-Moonwalk. Appreciate it man your one funny geeza keep it up fella.
You know that's what they doing uk how they just be playing off one another Pete ends with a kickback line bas comes in with a kickback line you can't teach that shit but they're also making sure it makes sense not just throwing words out there. Pete was really in the streets back in the day probably still is and bas was an old school bare-knuckle boxer / Street guy as well
We dont know if theyve had run ins with the law or not . But we will all look like innocent old men one day ! And all the youth will b looking at us like weve never done anything haha
also, you and scru face cousins or something? you guys share traces of similar mannerisms. and i remember back in the day ive heard your names together before, years ago, but could be unrelated, maybe why im tying it together.
I agree with you bro , u could do this , but ... I would not sleep at night having gone thro tha shit thay been through.. no real man would . I'll bet every man would rather have a good night sleep than have a conscious on Ur shoulder ... Thay bout that life .. UkoGz.... But don't get it twisted , it's not a life u want to live .. nothing comes for free in this life.

Absolutely awesome reference that I think can be overlooked easily, dope comment man.

Good wishes for Pete would be appreciated as he's just had a bit of skin cancer taken off the top.
🙏🏾
Pete posted this on Facebook 😅
"Best comment gets the chunk of meat they took out
my head, Pete 🤙🏻"
I was worried their stuff was gonna get old but they really killed this softer beat. So excited for them to keep mixing it up.
Wishing Pete a speedy recovery, fire track
So glad you checked this one out so quick, one of their best IMO - and a dinger means a stolen car.
It can also mean old banger. Ding is a strike, hit, dent etc. It's a reference to 'Dents in a Peugeot'
Dinger means ringer which mean stolen I'm from here
A Wiccan is a pagan, a "witch", hence the skirts or robes!

Also, the side skirts on a car with the neons underneath, like flames under a witches dress as she's about to be burned.

damn dude, that aside you took from like minute 4 to minute 5 about music was the realest thing ive heard in a long time.
These guys have been keeping the trenches lit💥. Kudos Bro for the reaction❤
Bro you always make my day 100% better. Laughter is medicine for the soul thank you 🙏
Yo man I love the analysis you give, talking about the power of music and all that. Really great insight.
Earning burning all this money am earning 😂😂
Pete and Bas best song in my opinion 👌
Also big up to Pete for still going in while battling cancer💪💪
fire. missed the ctrl alt delete bar tho
Ayy bruh u killin it with this reactions! Love the energy!
Those lines starting with "Kickback ain't good for the work ethic..." and ending with "Finger lickin" actually have another layer of meaning- as is so often the case with Pete+Bas. They are actually describin what happens when you blast someone closeup with a shotgun...

"Made it through the dark times indeed"!
REAL OGs.. so mad respect!
A dinger is a hooptie, yes exactly. Nicely parsed. +1
Pete and Bas, above all else, are entertaining story tellers. Every single song is entertaining, and every single song tells a story.
hahahaha In Australia we do both depends on the rules at the star of the game! i listen to theses legends while i train it makes em smile every time!! Great reaction mate cheers!!
I love how you keep increasing their combined ages haha.
KSO + Pete & Bas = Fire Reaction!
Man it's been a min since I seen my boy kso let's go with the Pete and bas 😁🤌🏻
Great reactions! LETS GOOOOO
Yoooo! Why is your bro waiting! Fire reaction! Tell Scru get on this shit!
Yeah, he's sleeping on this one 🤷
He jumped on gangste shit the day after it was released 🤔
This one is on 145K in 4 days. It took gangster shit one week to reach 145K. I still have the screenshot to prove it 🤣

The dipper forgot to edit that beginning lmao Awesome reaction as usual
Pete’s father introduced him to the mafia and they fought him a lot of what he knows, bas’s father use to run an underground bare knuckle fight ring, and when he was in school he knocked out one of his teachers.
Greatness has no age.
👏❤️✊🙏
Love the beat on this one and per usual Pete and Bas were flames
In English uno if someone plays a plus 4 you can’t play anything after it. So you can go back and forth with plus twos and when you’ve had enough you can slap down a pick up 4 to make them draw all cards on the stack
People constantly talk shit about their age but what people don’t realize is they’re only six years older than Dr. Dre💯
A dinger is an old beat up car. He went from a busted ride to a ride with vents in the hood and it's shiny. Also a Wiccan is a witch, they work skirts, he's skirting a ride at night.
That TRACE/FREEHAND verse is 🔥 and rumor has it Pete's house was raided not long ago they found nothing and it's addressed in Bish Bash Bosh.
Edit : A lot of miss Pete's control alt delete bar 🔥
Yooo KSO bro!!!! There's a new Coast Contra freestyle - you know you gotta bless us with it this weekend 😉😋
3:08 DOGGIE!!!!! 🐶🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
The person that played the Draw 4 selects a color. If the Draw 2 is the color that was selected by the player that dropped the Draw 4, then yes you can put a Draw 2 on top of it.

3970 years old 😂 bros got bars of wisdom
Lots of wisdom
Lots 👀
Good thoughts for Pete's health. Wickens are witches, so 'skirt like a Wicken' has a little spooky vibe.
Pete truly loves ska and tone back in the day
A dinger is an old motor, presumably with lots of "dings" (dents). You're welcome.

guy goes "idk if either of them are getting their doors kicked in by the feds" and bas says he chugs bombay then calls him a serial killer right after LOL
A ‘ding’ is a bump or dent in the car body. So yeah, a ‘dinger’ is an old smashed up car.
Yup and it's a reference to Pete & Bas' third song "Dents in a Peugeot"
No feds ever kicked down your door lol

I like Your reactions, big hugs from Poland, You have great soul, life more most people is not easy but this is our one chance to be on this world. big hugs
This is a madnessss!!!!
Yes we play in the UK. & No +4 or +2 on top of a +4. 👌
They truly are those the guys better than established regardless if they write their own stuff or not but this song shows them writing whether it's fake or not again I don't care cuz you can write the best music in the world and I bet you a million people will try to perform it and they would not be able to perform it with such realness n cadence n style n chemistry n so much more takes a special type of person to be able to perform like this did you catch the I spill a man's beans I'm a drunk chef
English music has been slept on way to long Pete &Bas real english men. Good to see people showing love for the English music scene
for uno question, it depends on the house rules.
my house, any special card can be played, so you throw me a +4, imma throw a reverse, you throw a +2 and so on. Worst chain i ever saw was mans ended up with a +24 or something like that, everyone was down to maybe 2-3 cards and he sitting there with the entire deck.
mans pulled the impossible and came back with a win😂😂😂😂
The official rules of uno state that you can play a draw 2 on a draw 2 and a draw 4 on a draw 4. i think recently though the Uno twitter account has stated that you cant, despite it being in the original rule book. Uno is usually house rules
Do not allow British accents to fool you into thinking these Geezers were not active fam
yes u can put a draw 4 on a draw 4 and it goes to the next. but only the same no 2s on 4s. thats USA rules. the drip and flow of these two makes them good but the bars bring it to another level
There is a video of the Feds at Petes house. Someone called on him. Its on UA-cam I believe. I saw it on IG.
Theyre wordplay is 10 layers deeper than any of the modern "rappers" 😂
This sick man! They writing their lyrics and everything dude
Man miss me with that draw 4 mess. My 6 year old daughter made the wild card a draw 5. Biggest gangster in the Uno game.
7:25 stank face activated
You can put a draw 4 not a draw 2. Also we play regular big boy cards😂

+4 can go on +4. But a +2 can't go on +4. But a switch direction can go on a +4 and send it back the other way!
They don't rap they float
Dingers, or dings, are dents... so it's a bit of a banger... Wicken is a witch(ish)
Yo dipper whats good man. I know it aint a patron request but try to get round to doing Suspect-Moonwalk. Appreciate it man your one funny geeza keep it up fella.
