FIRST TIME HEARING Pete & Bas - Plugged In W/Fumez The Engineer | Pressplay REACTION

[@funkr77]

It's real. Here in the UK we thought it was a joke when they dropped videos a few years ago but we were wrong. They have been dropping tracks regularly and just released the new mixtape. Not bad to a 70 and 75 year old. There grandchildren got them into it and help with wordplay but it's them. Check out Pete and Bas Window Frame cypher ft the Snooker Team and there Lightwork freestyle if you want more freestyles want more like this

[@Wbroach24]

I just found them this morning and have had them on repeat on spotify all day!!

[@boostbaa2882]

Not bad for 70 year olds! Mate majority of their videos have at least 1 M views

[@Codsworth_]

worth adding that they actually perform live as well

[@kidkarbon4775]

Pete & Bas are not real, they are created characters and always have been. It's a Sindu World skit When you listen to their live stuff, it's word for word & never deviates to hype the crowd it's all pre-recorded. Even Fumez will not go on the record stating the entire session was recorded at the time the video was shot. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZzTkJ2GmKeIpLM

facts

[@TeddyBiba]

Pete is a well respected gang member from south London, who used to run with the notorious Kray twins back in the day. Bas and his family ran an illegal bare knuckle boxing club in their back garden and made a lot of money before it was shut down for being a cannabis farm and money laundering. Pete had a case back 1998 for a murder back in the 60s of a rival gang member, but he managed to win the case. They're not guys that you'd wanna mess around with.

What nonsense, show me a list of members of the firm with their names on it. Show a picture of them with the Kray twins, Show a documentary on the underworld including them. Heck even the list of people who attended the church at the passing of the twins is publicly available. So much rubbish exists about Pete and Bas who were also reportedly from South London so would have actually ran with the Richardson Gang who were rivals to the Krays if any of their story was true, same issue exists though, they do not feature on any acknowledged list of gang members, no photos exist and they are not mentioned in historic documents, documentaries or books written by known gangsters of the period. It's all fabricated, the story, act, everything.
