Pete & Bas - Action Man | Reaction!

[@AAAndrew]

The jazziest rap I've ever heard. These boys just keep getting better. The flows on this are a master class all by themselves, and then you hit the bars and it keeps going. Their album will be ❤‍🔥

[@dalisllama]

Nah, you need to go check out some Robert Glasper (specifically the black radio albums)

[@ernestorenfurm4937]

DPD is a courierservice in Europe

[@skyguyflyinghigh]

2 other references are "jam jar" is cockney rhyming slang for car so he's jumping out the car, also they've been semi beefing with a rapper named potter payper... so if the potter don't pay the paper...

[@acetospace6]

I like anyone that reacts to Pete & Bas genuinely and this is one my favorite new slow flows they have put out, can't wait for their album! You gained a subscriber today cause of your genuine knowledgeable review, no worries on how much you pause, praise those UK diamond geezers!

[@whatitdodave]

Appreciate that!

[@sndmnc]

this track is so dope

[@Emilie-one]

I love these guys! I love both of their flows… Bas has amazing voice… Deep and smooth

[@federalreservewolflegend3523]

I am DIEING laughing as people's EYES pop out their heads when they watch almost ANY Pete and Bas video. I have not bought an album since albums were ALL you could buy. The GOLDEN age of rap. I am buying this! These OG's kicked the front doors of the house of rap, took everything they wanted, and squeezed it over their cocktail. Rap is now BETTER. NOBODY in the last 30 years simmered like these men. Fire 🔥

[@DishBestServed]

Action Man is the EU version of GI Joes for Americans.

[@msliddy9744]

It's been said that Bas was a piano teacher.

[@jaygee2759]

He was ,,, pete was a postman.

[@philsmith2606]

Pete been delivering for years, just changed the package.

[@Murderbits]

Their *last* jobs were working for the postal office and teaching music. Those were not their prior .careers, though.

[@TheOnyxSpy]

​@@philsmith2606I dunno, I think postman would be the perfect job for the illicit kinds of packages. Nobody will even look at the postman twice for delivering packages to someone 🤷🏻

[@SheepsMcgill]

He was, he plays many instruments, theres footage of him on their insta playing the accordion in Spain lol

[@dreavesthemalkavianphsycia8933]

Just to be clear. The "Christian way" bar is making him pray vs. prey. So rather than beg for his life, he's making him say a last prayer for his soul when he sends him off. I.e. he WAS prey now he MUST pray. Keep up the awesome reactions, be safe, and stay RAD.

[@MJ-tg7wv]

Love your reactions - and you are so right - this is a chance for Pete and Bas fans to show thanks and appreciation for the work they have put in over the years - it would be great for them to get a number 1. Ren earlier this year, then Pete and Bas - that would be a Christmas present! Thanks again for a neat reaction and love to all from the UK😻

[@EliDufoo]

Bas keeps POP SMOKE ' RIP 🙏 On my mind. THESE 2 ARR LEGENDs

[@garylblood]

Figures...Action.....Action figures

[@workshopninjathe1st]

It’s a Harry Potter bar, but it’s also a dis against a British rapper called Potter Payper… always with the double meaning 😂

[@Brut3cnvntion]

Action figures of Pete and Bas would be fire

[@lindsayholt5824]

Ooooo.... pete & bas Funko Pops!

[@jfrank4802]

I was hoping you reviewed this man! Loved this track bro and your commentary, A1

[@davepaul6496]

figure, action refers to an Action Man, its the UK's GI Joe action figure.

[@JimmyCrohnsWanker]

These cats are classy, it refers to women's figures most of the time ;)

[@onlyu2high]

Their best song no doubt

[@uncontrollable343]

“If a potter dont pay the paper” Is a reference “potter paper” a popular uk rapper.

[@MJ-tg7wv]

One thing has been bugging me, that I've managed to track down. The back to Nina, bar - I felt it had to connect to that great singer songwriter Nina Simone who I am sure is up the boys alley - and yes Back To Nina is an album that came out this year! The vibe certainly made me think of her when she was called out.

[@vimfuego9738]

Great catch.

[@ebonspike]

Jackson Five, Action Jackson, net five of the Jackson's ($20)=$100... so many levels

[@philsmith2606]

Neck 5 of the Jackson’s = drink 5 Jack Daniels

[@peterm.souzajr.2112]

'they unlocking flows' you hit that right on the head! thats the best way to put it, its like they just discover new flows and invent flows out of thin air. are they the Christopher Columbus of rap?

[@mayhughdavis1003]

I was thinking more like action figure toys on that bar

[@thenuttypuffer]

potter payper is a east london rapper they have beef with..

[@ChokyoDK]

Too saucy man 🔥

[@henryheuerman1859]

[@oneandonlymario659]

They've been posting about someone called Potter Paper and I don't know if it's a real beef, but they worked it into this song.

[@cyberash3000]

You missed the bar the potter bar. It's a reference to potter payper the rapper who they have beef with

[@manuelestevez3982]

How in the hell can anybody have beef with these two 😂

[@danielhealey985]

They most definitely do not have beef with potter payper 😂😂

[@dylanashton9596]

They are too smooth wit it

[@mgzcom]

Sophisticated Gangster Sauce. Bas was a jazz pianist/composer; arranger. Don't sleep on his musical talent. Also Pete was in a Ska band. They both know about musical structure, jazz scanting (i.e. lead to rap) and phrasing.

[@onlyu2high]

Yes, Basil Preuveneers is a good jazz musician

[@jamesmeredith5551]

Toaster jams I jump out of the jar - in Cockney slang a jam jar is a car. So he's saying if the gun jams he's still gonna get out of the car and get ya.

[@TheBudz91]

That intro beat sounds like “Still Not a Player” by Big Pun

[@y0sarian]

Came here to say it

[@UKSkaface]

This track is about the only thing I've heard that's smoother than Dave's voice!

[@simonmccaig-scott9690]

Action man - Figures (money and toys) -- I'm down for some action

[@stobe187]

overwhelming sauce

[@jacobsurely5859]

Action Jackson was the reference. 1:20

[@conarward1390]

You only missed one double it was the figure and action, action figures like action man 😊 And you was correct with the block cctv and dvd reference being a hidden tripple it was blockbusters dvd 📀

[@boyjuju]

if the god dam toaster jams, I'll jump out the jar and slap the geezer!! jam jar, out the jar, Car!! MAGIC...bam.

[@pL-uto]

"talking bout figures, I'm down for some action" = action figures maybe

[@francobones]

An if hes talks about figures, man i’m down for some action - Action Man was the UK version of GI Joe 🔥🔥🔥

[@crimson1919]

Sounds like Aliyah Try Again at the beginning.

[@chantelvenessa]

DPD is like UPS in the uk

[@hunters.gardner]

Potter Payer is a 🔥 british rapper

[@Shreepsy]

Figured, down for some action = action figures

[@whatitdodave]

That single line has multiple meanings, so it seems.

[@charlesg5085]

They dropped a hot loaf

[@DC_Stonez831]

Jar =Jaguar Toster Jams Jar If the gun jams jump out the car

[@Danificationization]

Song you think it sounds like at beginning is probably body on me ashanti nelly and akon

[@MrSenorfuego1]

Yo for the piano part in the beginning, could you be thinking of Joe ft Big Pun Still Not a Player?

[@whatitdodave]

YES. There it is. Thank you, it was driving me crazy haha.

[@MaximDL1410]

☝️👏❤️🐐🐐💪😎🔥

[@mikechason466]

[@abdelazizbenomar9893]

Best réaction bro and please react to uncle bal fresh hot buns it's Friend of Pete and bas thanks

[@a.plastichucker9804]

I enjoy your reactions a lot but are you in the other room whispering so you don’t wake your kids or something?

[@OrtusMallum2075]

Most people do not know that almost all slang in the black community came from east England long before the rap game......

[@whatitdodave]

Maybe slang that existed back in the 70’s and 80’s. Not so much today.

[@DC_Stonez831]

Action Figures ( toys)

[@ZEU5-22]

pete and bas on Joe Rogan?

[@UKSkaface]

The 'Look son' bar is a bit of a derogatory way of addressing someone; he's not actually saying it to his own son, but in conversation if you want to assert superiority over someone calling them son, boy, lad or anything else that implies they lack experience or knowledge is a quick way to do it. It can also be used as a way to address someone younger than you, and let's be honest, a lot of folks are younger than these two!

[@-RalphSpencer-]

[@TheCountBlackula1978]

You did a thousand pauses for a 2 min song.

[@whatitdodave]

Sure did.
