Pete & Bas - T-Pain | Reaction

[@callmedoc6294]

Line by line breakdown because I don't have nothing better to do, just gonna leave this in some of these reaction videos comment sections so y'all can get the full context. Please correct me if I'm incorrect on any of these bars. [I spin fellas, my swing quicker than Federer] - lots of things, spinning the block, spinning ya head, and knocking you out with a swing quicker than Federer the tennis player [I serve packets, they bounce back on the regular] - serving up dope to his customers having them come back on the reg, just like serving a ball in tennis having it bounce back [And I'ma tell a hussie, "Sing for me, T-Pain"] - making the ladies sing for him like T-Pain, but also "tell a hussie" is a homophone to Tallahassee, where T-Pain is from [Your mumma's hooked on the packs I been selling her] - hooked is another tennis reference, while also literally meaning hooked on drugs (your mama is, in this case, the hussie) [I click hammers and bang 'em and let my nuts hang] - click hammers, and bang em, but also pull back hammers and shoot guns, letting his nuts hang in reference to tools like nuts, nails, and bolts [I fill his head with the lead like a mukbang] - filling heads with food, filling heads with lead, mukBANG as in the sound of a gun going off [The magazine make me lean when I walk] - the mag of a firearm is so big it makes him lean when he walks [And the drumstick'll make an head bang like a punk band] - drumstick as in a drummers tool, but also as in the food referencing back to mukbang, AND also a euphemism for a gun being used to shoot someone, making them headbang like a punk band (referencing the drumstick again) [Hop in a cab and banging me crossword, uh I'm heading to west and I'm banging a posh bird, uh A couple of cans and a puff on me death stick, uh A click of me fingers, he's cutting me kofte] - getting into a cab, heading to the west end of (presumably) London which is the richer area, smoking, drinking, and getting kofte (a Turkish kebab dish) at the snap of his fingers, basically he's living like royalty [Ringing the bow bells, bringing the waps out I'm flinging the dry food, bringing the cats out They're belling me non-stop, sending the lads out I hop in me drop top, I'm running a man down] - the bow bells are in reference to the bells of a church in the east side of London, he rings them calling out all of his women, and flings out dry food (in reference to drugs) to bring his cats out, or rather, the men, and those same men are belling him (idiom for calling on the phone) so he sends out some of his men to do work while he takes out his enemies [Mr. Big Bucks, I be looking the business Dressed to kill, mumma got me up on her hit list Pole positioned, had her fella running the distance I be banging her, banging her, banging her, giving her triplets] - he's got big money, dressed up nice, and somebody's momma (not mine) has him up on her hit list, referencing back to the taking out of enemies, but in this case it's meaning she's gonna hit him up, and he's at pole position so he's winning his race while her man is still lagging behind, giving him time to give her triplets (banging her X3 which is in itself a collection of 3 triplets) [The bigger the back, the bigger the butt crack The bigger the chance the bird's up in me contacts Her figure's a big deal, a pen on a contract Sign me up, baby, give a tip of my top hat] - the bigger the back (ass) the bigger the crack (ass), and the bigger the chance he's gonna be calling her up, her figure is a big deal (important), but also a big deal as in an actual deal that he puts his pen (dong) on to sign it up (backshots presumably), and while he's giving her a tip of his top hat, SHE's giving him some top on his tip [And I've been whipping the white, puffing a Benson Pushing the pack, the full stack like I'm benching Give 'em the fish scale, they slide like a penguin Flipping the chicken, my bill's wide, fuck a pension] - whipping the white (drug bars), puffing a Benson (a brand of cigarettes), pushing packs as in dope in a full stack, likening it to benching in the gym, which is a further reference to the phrase "pushing weight" which is another colloquialism for selling dope, giving out fish scale (a pure form of cocaine) and they run off, while he flips the chicken (drug slang for a kilo of cocaine, so flipping a kilo), and making so much money on that that he just doesn't NEED a pension [Slow-mo vision, I been puffing a peace pipe Selling three five's to the fiends by the seaside Ima tear lines in the seams of my Levi's With a stack thicker than Nicki Minaj behind] - he's high as hell puffing on something strong, specifically while selling three fives (3.5gs of marijuana) to the fiends at the seaside area with fiends (self explanatory), while literally tearing lines (reference to cocaine again, but in this case its actually fabric) in the seams of his pants due to the thickness of the stack of money he's carrying, likening it to Nicki Minaj's rear end (callback to the fact his cash wad is probably in his rear pocket) [Birds whistle when I walk like this Best listen when I talk like this I'm outside on the curb with me tats out If he's hard, he can try chalk line this] - he gets the ladies, he gets respect, he's out on his block with his tats out (probably in relation to being shirtless, having his gang tats out, and also maybe a reference to a firearm since I've heard guns referred to as tats), and if a dude is gangster enough he can TRY to take him out [Chain swinging when I walk like this Heads bopping when I talk like this I'm outside on the curb with the straps out Have a laugh, you ain't gonna chalk line shit] - he's got big money big chains, gets us bopping our heads when he raps, and he's also out on the block with his guns, but its a joke if you actually think you're gonna take him out Probably missed some stuff, but that's the gist of it. Enjoy.

[@Clasteau]

That about covers it. Yeah. Love the tell a hussy / Tallahassee word play, might be my favorite bit.

[@aVataR_ehyeh]

Godsend, thanks. Makes me appreciate what they do even more, because there's always a bunch of stuff that I miss.

[@Fkn_yeyseman]

I was hoping someone else noticed the triplets bit actually being in groups of triplets in rhythm, so fucking good

[@decorumlopez9147]

Thank you, Loremaster!

[@BookSmartLib]

Thank you so much! As an older white woman from Texas, I have NO idea what they are talking about most of the time but I still love it!

[@Greg_B-15]

I’m a 53 year old cockney and whilst I like a few US reactors, it’s great to find these young men representing the UK, full of energy, new subscriber here 👊🏻🇬🇧 Edit: ya gotta check out Bish Bash Bosh and work your way back

Totally agree

They are 100% LEGIT! They are on tour and perform live all the time

[@whybutwhy4137]

I was about to say the same thing. I’m just shocked that some people are just now finding out about them.

[@KeineLust78]

I'm a white punk rocker from Cleveland Ohio, rap isnt even my main thing, but holy shit, i'm a fan of these old Men.

[@raydachefmorales7624]

Hold up what kinda punk rock GG Allin black flag or I hate saying this blink 182 "punk rock"

[@thewesty101]

Post punker here in flyover country and I'm obsessed. So happy these dudes get their props from ours 🤜

[@chrismason3614]

😅 insecure punks that's judge others by what kind of punk they are 😅 fuck what a douche 🖕 punks not dead 🖕​@@raydachefmorales7624

[@Wigwammack]

I'm a old school metal head but these guys are my latest obsession. It's something about the sheer skill on display on every single one of their tracks. Everything from the lyrics to their cadence to the beat is just a masterclass in song writing. They are legends as far as i'm concerned.

[@KeineLust78]

@@Wigwammack Yeah, it's not a novelty, they really sound good.. weird tho, my 23 year old son hates them and he's a rap kid...

[@lolly_golightly]

These guys make me so damn happy. They’re amazing. Love your reaction, too. 💜

[@1991-present]

So good to find black British reactions. Appreciate the content.

[@MsCogan555]

These geezers are fire. My eldest showed me these cats about 3 yrs ago. They are so funny too

[@koukiguy4163]

I'm an old school hip hop head from the states and absolutely love Pete & Bas. Two triple OGs just banging out hits.

[@grandmabaddie]

It is unbelievable how these guys only started a few years ago. They ain't no mumble rappers 😂 ❤

[@scs3973]

I'm a renegade... and I'm not sure Ren could gave there guys you know! 😂😂😂

[@grandmabaddie]

​@@scs3973, 😂 im also a renegade

[@toeclampingfreak3218]

And Imma "tell a hussie" (Tallahassee) sing for me T-Pain...Is from Tallahassee...😏😉

[@thewesty101]

Shiiiii... That's a deep bar

[@belsren]

I discovered these guys just the other day. I showed a couple of videos of them to my 12-year-old son who loves rap music. He was hesitant at first but as soon as he heard them spitting, he knew they were the real thing lol.

[@PURPZ05]

Pete and Bas are brilliant bless them. T-pains verse was amazing especially hearing him without the auto tune

[@DabbaDoya]

Im always in anticipation for more of Pete and Bas!! They spittin way above the younginz out today!! ❤❤🔥

[@HoboSimian]

I love the smiles slowly cracking, getting bigger, and then bursting once they reach the crossword-uh / posh bird- uh 🤣 Such a great reaction!

[@MeggaMann_theBlueLion]

Even if these guys didn’t write it it you still have to deliver it. And they did that. These boys got it. And I’m hearing this all the way in Texas

[@silasdementia]

I am with yall. At the end of the day. I don't care if they write their own stuff or not. Like if they write their own they deserve the props for it. If they don't. They are still skilled in their performance and should get their dues for that.

[@thedreadinitpodcast]

Absolute FACTS!!

[@Lifeislove2]

I have been a fan since I first saw them! They are the shit!!!! Idgaf who writes for them. You can’t write flow. That’s them!!! Big love from the states! When they coming?????

[@alanbish2727]

How mad is it that pete and bas can get someone like T-PAIN to come onto this 🔥

[@ClaudeYoung]

Pete & Bas are the realest! 🎯💯 Universal. We love em out here in the states. They are legit AF!!

[@TheAaronmallen]

I’m from South Central Cali… for decades I laughed when I hear the British dialect over hard tracks… over the years a few UK Burners have turned my ear… next to God REN, these GENTLEMEN!!! are my Fauthers!!! NOT ONE WACKED TRACK FROM THEM!!! Over a Year Later!!!!

[@James-ly3wf]

Check out their “grandsons” - nine and dex . LOTS of talent in the UK. We love hiphop, so thanks America. 🇬🇧🤜🤛🇺🇸

[@canadianbakin1304]

i did not have 70s aged men in suites being my favourite rappers of the year on my 2024 bingo card, and yet here we are

[@s.rmusician5216]

I’m from Canada and have been onto Pete and bas for some time now. The dudes got bars and t-pain is definitely my favourite song by them so far. Straight cold bars. And being from Canada I’m still learning a lot of the lingo and way English folks talk so as I learn more I realize even more how cold these bars get!! Banging her banging her banging her giving her triplets!!?? Come on bro.

[@genuismensa]

I have been following this guys for a couple of years now. I saw them on instagram and I though it was a spoof at first but the bars were just fire and their delivery was on point. I looked around and sure enough they are the real deal. IDK which is which, but the taller one sounds like Pop Smoke. I am so glad you guys had a good reaction to them. They seem like a legit couple of dudes and I am glad they are getting the attention they deserve!

[@gavinwilson2071]

10k by the end of the year? 😂😂😂 Congrats fellas, well deserved.

[@HappyLion1885]

Funny show boys, well done, all the best for your futures.. pete and bas smash it

[@Drewharri68.]

Old skool British Gangsta rap 😅these guys are legit and 70 years old.

[@TheOKkittyfarm]

The bars blow my mind but their cadence that is talent. Unbelievable.

[@faithmcdonald3428]

Everytime I hear them they blow my mind. I can’t help to think that 1, they are retired gangsters and 2, they have been in the music industry for a very long time but in the back of the scene. And now they must of got up one day some years ago and said, we gatta show these young guys how to rap… that’s what I think.

[@James-ly3wf]

Respect! To the OAG’s. This is the real hip-op! I mean Hip-Hop. Sick beats, good flow. Most rappers out there is faking it, so what does it matter? Good luck to them all

[@PedroNeves-hm5xm]

Plz React to Pete & Bas - Bish Bash Bosh that's their hardest tune imo...

[@witt2007]

That Peter Pan Line goes so hard!

[@slimpikins1323]

What ^ said (bish bash bosh)

[@pedrorivera8255]

"Giving her triplets." Their flow, technique, rhymes...better than most of the youngsters!!!

[@haerverk]

"Bangin her, bangin her, bangin her" are rhythmical triplets (3 syllables over 2 beats) 🤯

[@paulknight883]

Pete and Bas, my guilty pleasure ❤

[@dianaruman8723]

No guilt.

[@jamiekeough1]

So as I watch this video an hour after it came out, and I look and see you guys have broke 10,000 followers! Congratulations!

[@RichardMickle-n6i]

These two Grandpas don't miss period woooooooo

[@claytonharrison2920]

These guys have the keys to the kingdom. There cannot be a street in this entire gaff that they would not be welcomed.

[@thedreadinitpodcast]

Absolute FACTS!!

[@mocuno]

I can't stop playing these guys. They're amazing in every way. Lyrics are tight, clever, and hard core! I've always thought British people would be better at rap than even New Yorkers as there is better vocabulary and it's deeper in rhyme...as I understand it. I hope I can get over for a show!

[@kaynesheldon4905]

Pete and Bas are fucken gnarly!!! Pete’s been going threw some sort of cancer treatments so seeing this new stuff dropping is absolutely amazing!! Well he was. I don’t know if he is anymore but I know he was at some point.

[@positivepolitics1]

They're playing live shows!! It's them!

[@j.t.3798]

Touring around UK now, small venues

[@positivepolitics1]

@@j.t.3798 yeah! I live in Bristol, UK, and I'm seeing them in Bath in Nov!

[@sabfit4life277]

If you guys haven't come across Harry Mack yet he's one who's talent will also blow your mind! 🔥 Freestyle off the ACTUAL top rapper

[@ianrose56]

They could react to Ren & Vik reacting to Harry bigging up Ren.!!!

[@ianrose56]

They could react to Ren & Vik, reacting to Harry tribute rapping about Ren.!!! With Rikashea pening the art portrait of Ren.!!!

[@trollerbladdering]

So. Something I haven't seen many people catch is Pete says "Tell a hussy sing for me T-Pain" which is a play on words to T-Pains home city, Tallahassee.

[@tnightwolf]

I believe their grandsons help them in the process, but these old fkn geezers are legit in their singing!... AND I JUST FKN LOVE IT!🤘❤🤟

[@DabbaRanx]

Hahaha! Yesss! Pete and Bas are stupid good. This new track is one of their best too

[@claireb9127]

Another great reaction. I’m really enjoying your Ren reactions, more Ren and Pete & Bas please. Pete the short one . Pete & Bas have a banging catalogue

[@thedreadinitpodcast]

We've just discovered that Pete & Bas have a crew called the Snooker Team... We're definitely getting into that

[@itsakittyting]

I ♥ this song and Your reaction! Golf is another great one of theirs

[@celuiquipeut6527]

Its actually them. They used to be ''active'' back in the days. And they write their own shit, they just pass it thru the lens of their grandson.

[@mobileradiofitter]

The beat hits, then the bars hit, then the delivery, these guys are on fire

[@Bunny-bi8dj]

Massive congrats on the 10k subs!!! Well deserved 💙

[@robert_5974]

T-Pain can really spit. He surprised me years ago going hard with speed on Tech N9ne's "B.I.T.C.H". I kind of wish he laid down a version of the chorus with the auto tune

[@ikedewinter1213]

Yeah that's a sick song

[@TomGodson95]

yeah he said he leaned more towards R&B but he can spit and sing really good too without that autotune he used most of the time 😂

[@gdeezy]

Wayne said years ago that T-Pain is one of the dopest rappers he's ever been around. That means he's for sure legit

[@jorice5528]

Of course you don't like UK rap. You don't want the Brits to culturally misappropriate your sound, of course not. I'm surprised your sensibilities allowed yourself to like these old boys.

@@Fleshox19-uz3qt I tried to give it a chance, but most UK rappers are wack. These two gentlemen have metaphors and great delivery, and the voices are banging. I do not care about cultural appropriation I just like good music, these guys have great beats and lyrics on point, and they have the voices to match. full package, in my opinion.

What people are talking about is that I belive it's Pete's grandkids do the producing, beats and I think some writing. But Pete and Bas are the main writers and legit perform the songs.
