Just a fyi, "fag" is also slang for a ciggarette in the UK. Bas said "pints and a few fags" as in beers and a few cigs.

I went to a bar in London and got hit on by 4 dudes in an hour. I grabbed the bartender and was like, "yo, is this a fuckin cigarette bar?" And he heard my usa accent, and laughed and said, "nah, just a lot of poofs millin about."

Pete is reputed to have worked for the Richardson Gang in South London in the 60s, and Bas is a piano teacher, whose family used to run bare knuckle tournaments. They write their own lyrics, with their grandkids giving them hints on the latest slang. They have been around a while now... as for best rappers in UK..not really, but they are up there.

Baz is half Irish amd "Tiochfad a la" which are some of the lyrics that Baz spits is irish for "our day will come" and the reason he's saying that is because they approached Bugsy and Fredo years ago to colaborate amd were turned down sobnow they're calling them out.

You are correct in saying that people don't really take them seriously, I guess they just can't get past the age factor, which is just so damn narrow minded. They are really good, and I hope to see more of them on your channel ( as well as BTS and others I'll suggest later) Their newest one is " Gangster Sh!t " which goes hard, but literally all their stuff does and you will not be disappointed with any of their songs. " Oi " , " Browns" , " Window frame ", " Sindhu Sesh"..... pick any of them. Really enjoy your reactions and very happy I decided to subscribe. 💜💜💜

[@heatherlynnfairfield]

Not sure if anyone else mentioned this, but the Janice Joplin reference is deeper than it seems at first glance. Bas made a reference to being “green like Goblin” … followed by Pete transforming that into “Me, she’s gobbling me and she can’t get enough of this joplin”. The word “joplin” is UK slang for a man’s “naughty bits”, so Pete was openly referencing oral sex. Bas beautifully followed that up with “Janice, I don’t know what the plan is, smoked so much that I’m stuck in the planets” … which references Janice Joplin but is ALSO a sideways reference to the Schoolhouse Rock song “Interplanet Janet”.

You can hear at 7:32 when Pete drops a bar so fucking funny that Fumez the Engineer laughs out loud and didn't notice that he had a hot mic, but it was so good that he left it in the track.
