Anything Pete and Bas I will listen to. Also, the lyrics aren't difficult to break down at all, but NXCRE & The Villains is pretty good. Reminds me a lot of Coheed and Cambria from the 00's, but I like the singer's voice a bit more. "Usurper," "Endless," "Indigo," and others.

[@melaniemccoy8761]

@KnoxHill ok. This time I'll give you the correct artist lol. F.M.F.M.H. by ivan b. When you hear the story telling you might see why, in my mind, this is always a song by NF until I go to look it up.

[@cyberash3000]

well i never knew yopu played for AFC fylde one of my local teams (im a blackpool supporter myself)

[@MJ-tg7wv]

@@gastonbateman6949 what about catching up on some of the Pete and Bas you missed? They dropped some dope stuff: Stepped into the building, Quick 1-2 and Bish Bash Bosh.

[@jaymearruda6491]

The T-Pain response to this is fire too. Give a listen

[@bjorn-falkoandreas9472]

T-Pain catching strays. What's he gonna do? Sit this one out?

[@marisaJ1]

I love that T pain did a comeback to this too. I appreciate the back and forth,

[@Vigorous_Potato]

When I saw the song name my first thought was “most people these days would get mad and try to take legal action that their names being used without permission” My second thought was “actually it’s T pain, he seems pretty chill, I doubt he’d have anything negative to say” Then I heard about how he threw his own lines in and wanted to be apart of the remix all I could think of is how awesome that is

[@PolyphonicSpr33]

The only thing better than discovering Pete and Bas is watching other people discover Pete and Bas. Oh, and it's "Bas" like Bazz, his name is Basil.

[@99HAREWOOD]

so true😂

"No one wants to hear grandpa rapping." That line didn't age well. As a nurse, I sometimes dread getting older because I see the bad of what age can do to you. But seeing people who are older than me (41) gives me hope and so much joy for them. Because I know there is a difference between being alive and living.

[@skyguyflyinghigh]

for real, i've worked as a carer in a carehome before and it made me realize the difference between living and being alive is giving up, some people just give up, same way placebo's work to keep you going it's all about your mindset, older people who think everything is too late for them die, but old people who don't want to give everything. gotta be a stubborn mfer to keep going and not let age define you. i lowkey hate that people judge em for that when everyone has to get old eventually, even rappers, eminem is like 50 but no-one would judge him as hard, old people have stories and pasts, that's genuinely the best part of my job hearing all their stories and wild pasts.

[@Hootla]

Who are you quoting

[@melaniemccoy8761]

@Hootla eminen in nails in the coffin the benzino diss. You know cause eminem is a grandpa now, and I loved his album, and these two did great. So apparently, people do want to hear grandpa's rap. Lol

[@MJ-tg7wv]

The ref to tallahassee where TPain came from - and Bas dropped a ref to their roots - "Ringing the bow bells" - anyone born within the sound of the church bells of St Mary le Bow is a true Cockney! T Pain dropped a verse in reply to their open verse challenge. Also Krizz Kalico loved them on Mr Boyd's reaction. Don't forget their Grandsons do the beats for them - what a joy to work together! They are also touring the UK and Europe yet again. Good luck with your album

[@vatch07075]

This is why I watch your reactions... you've given me a whole new perspective on hip pop, I listen to it in a different way now. Thanks for this, Knox

[@shanedixon9172]

Yes love Pete and bas and knox you the best at breaking stuff down

[@johnfredericks4376]

Check out their grand kids.... Nine (91 Shots) and Dex (Handsome Dexter) who also do their beats. You can tell immediately which one is related to Bas.

[@slimconfucius]

Hate to break it to you, but Nine and Dex are not their grandkids, they ARE Pete and Bas. Just look it up, Pete and Bas are an a front for their act.

[@abrb1223]

​@@slimconfucius nah, these guys do this live. They write their own shit with assistance with modern slang. Dex and Nine don't even sound similar.

[@slimconfucius]

@@abrb1223 in case you didn't notice, Nine and Dex are at every live show to provide vocals. Obviously the voice isn't the same, they have to mask it. Listen to one of Pete and Bas' older songs before they masked Bas' voice some more, listen to Burning and compare to Pecan Pie.

[@2rare2die100]

⁠@@abrb1223 Pete and Bas don’t have a single writing credit on any of their songs, the only writers credited are Dex and Nine.

[@abrb1223]

@@2rare2die100 that means absolutely nothing, there are tens of thousands of pieces of music out there with writers or contributors that weren't properly credited. Even if they don't write their own stuff, they perform way better then 9 and Dex do, as well as the majority of other rappers on the scene right now. That's enough for me.

[@rebekah1180]

I always love Bas’ dancing

[@Lurch685]

Happy grampa

[@karenkruger3690]

My son (13) came across them and introduced me.... I was like WHAT??? We've been reviewing & riding with the oldies ever since 🤷🏻‍♀️... Dear Lord let me grow old like them!

[@dvdkolk]

it's amazing that your son recognized that these guys are GOOD

[@nathanielmarshall6020]

First person I've seen catch that "bangin' 'er" wasn't just triple (which most people noticed) but formulated as triplets. Respect.

[@lesterbottomley7641]

If anyone is gonna pick up on any minutia it'll be Knox

[@DualEquinox]

I love the depth of the triplet line, not many people seem to realise that the triple entendre Knox touched on (triple repetition, rapped in triplet, the literal meaning of the line) gives another meaning to the bar itself (triplet = triple entendre).

[@inyamers8532]

I just found these guys last week. They are fantastic.

[@anthonyhowrard526]

do you like Samson?

Same here and i'm addicted..

[@edwardhandy3427]

Man, I don't know if KZbin just isnt showing them but I was literally thinking yesterday I wish you'd done more Pete and Bas. You NEED to do more, no one catches their doubles like you (other than maybe Scuderia Skoot). 'Longthorne Shotgun' has to be your next and their 'Sindhu Sesh'!

[@frogpaste]

I just found out about these guys yesterday. Then I saw Knox's first breakdown of theirs and wondered why he never did any more. Then he dropped this one today! 😁

[@prestonbarham2066]

I agree

[@annfarmer9704]

Knox, their grandkids rap too! I think they go by nine & dex? it is such a a trip ~ you can tell they are their grandkids! their voices, attitudes, flows...total reality warp! they just dropped a song called pecan pie you are gonna love it! you're looking great Knox! seems a headliner was just what you needed! great to see you in a happy place! all the best to you & yours! congrats on the headliner! keep workin' it! next up ~ West Coast tour! gotta give N. Cali some shows! ❣️❣️❣️🌻🌻🌻❣️❣️❣️

[@fecklessman]

they also write all their rhymes lol.

[@Khuros]

@@fecklessman No they don't. Pete and Bas are far better than nine & dex. Nine makes the beats but the pete and bas write their own bars. Bas is a professional musician. Pete was in a Ska band.

@@Khuros sure buddy.

I love pete and bas'style, come in ,kill it with bars and beats and walk away leaving us wanting for more😂😂

[@PinkFrappe]

I’ve said this a few times before on different videos and the few livestreams I’ve managed to catch, but you’ve really opened my brain up to hip hop. My girlfriend got me into the genre with Eminem and a whole load of nerdcore, but ever since I found your channel I can’t go a day without listening to *some* kind of hip hop. You’ve got this headbanging moshing metalhead bouncing to beats and catching bars 🤘

[@CoDVETERAN11]

i literally was looking on your channel for all of your pete and bas reactions yesterday lets fucking go

Great reaction. The tatts reference was tattoo’s, we shorten the word sometimes. And it’s pronounced baz (short for basil) these geezers are smashing it in the uk. 👊🏼

3:25 "oh no it's bullets because they're Gs". Dead

[@azraelfaust487]

do more of their music, they are DENSE with bars, highly recommend "gentlemen" "bish bash bosh" "quick 1-2" "longthorne shotgun"

[@edwardmatos9100]

Hahaha bruh you are awesome. I put this request in like 2 days ago and here it is. Thanks

[@who-nobody-never]

Im still surprised no one caught on to "running a man down" being delivering heroin. Or "chalk line this" meaning its obvious meaning, but also if your hard, try this 'chalk line', line of dope. And the rest. It goes pretty hard.

[@Lurch685]

I’ve never heard that first reference.

[@who-nobody-never]

@@Lurch685 Even the bigger the back, bigger the crack. Meaning using baking soda to pad out the crack as opposed to pure ammonia rock. Bigger the chance the bird of dope is in his contacts. Its classic cockney double meaning slang.

[@Embolder]

Always coming woth the educated breakdowns of the lyrics. Not many get it so on point. Hats off sir

[@JulieTremblay-bn7mf]

i watch alot of reaction, and your the first who give a full explanation of what they are saying thank you

Bas rhymes with jazz. 🎶 Their grandkids/producers are 91 Shots and Handsome Dexter, who also release stuff together as Nine & Dex. There's a huge rabbithole, dude. My suggestions for them are Bish, Bash, Bosh, Stepped Into The Building, Longthorne Shotgun, and Sindhu Sesh.

[@KevDP14]
