SUGGESTION: Quit worrying about your hair and lock in on the bars. Good thing your boy was here because he was catching ALL of the bars. Otherwise, great reaction. ***("Jollof" is a rice dish, popular in Africa and some spots in the West Indies. Bas was a backyard bare knuckles fighter back in his youth and reports say that he was quite good, if not one of the best.)
09:25s in Cockney (London slang) "Doing Bird" means doing time in prison. So, when Pete said he: "flipped the bird" its like a middle finger & throwing prison time he could have done behind him.
Fall asleep to the sound of the hoover is a followup to the "I dream like Martin Luther" bar, J Edgar Hoover was one of his biggest detractors at the time. A hoover is also the UK word for a vaccum cleaner, so the double meaning (or the more obvious meaning for us brits) is that he's a heavy sleeper which leads in to the Freddy Kruger bar.
There's a conspiracy-hypothesis that FBI was trying to influence MLK by putting on low-volume voices while he was sleeping in hotel-rooms he was staying.
“One of his biggest detractors” is one way to put it, I guess. “Ordered his assassination” would be a more direct way. I’ve always hoped Pete meant it that way, but feared it’s just a coincidence with Hoover, meaning vacuum, being such a common word in the U.K. It’s still such a subversive thing to say, requiring quite the underground understanding of history to even think of, that’s it’s kinda hard to believe. Or maybe, looking in from outside, the notion that the FBI/CIA murdered MLK is much more prevalent in the U.K. than here inside the U.S., where most would find the idea shocking and/or dismiss it as a looney conspiracy theory.
Came here to say that. LOL. “Breakin’ ‘em down like the steps on the back of the box of the Crocker, bet he (Betty) take that”. One of the most tragically missed verses in this song.
boxing back your food means eating fast. box a man back like you devoured him. jaloff is a rice dish from nigeria, served in boxes from take aways. boxes goes back to the box-rectangle verse. boxing a man may also be putting him in a coffin. also may be a reference "like you are eating jaloff" because you eat it fast as its just rice, so you hit him back fast. layers on every bar
Dodged the case so I Flipped the bird is referencing to uk slang where bird means jail so he flipped the middle finger and skipped the jail time is what he’s getting at
2 references I picked up on that could also have an alternative interpretation, 1 flippin the bird could also reference avoiding jail time as in the phrase doing bird is common for, as in bird in a cage, being behind bars, 2 referencing to taking his jewels could mean jewellery but also his crown jewels common London slang for genitals. Those are just my thoughts I could be wrong.
Not quite. There were many more but he did a great job. Some were really complex and would be easily overlooked due to relating to history and UK slang
Don’t know if anyone mentioned this, but the last line about “chavving his jewels” is a double bar that refers to cutting off someone’s … ah … manly bits OR stealing someone’s literal jewelry. (The more you know.)
that bar about "had a dream like Martin Luther, fall asleep to the sound of the Hoover" goes over a lot of heads. J. Edgar Hoover head of the FBI hated MLK but MLK kept doing his thing
You guys catching more of the bars and references than most. There's even more there too but lots of UK and old man specific stuff that you really have to be UK based to catch
Awesome vid. Homie with the hoodie was clocked in, he caught those bars immediately. Not many people catch on like that and understand the references! Keep it going boys.
How did he catch almost all of the intricate bars, but silence for "Shelled On; Big Bang Theory" & "get split like Chevron"? Other honorable mention bars, "Kippling end up missing". That was a famous missing case in the UK. & I think they missed the "😢Bet, He Crocker" bar too 🤔
Yeah those bars are fire, I just caught that the "cone gets split like chevron" line has a double with head and cone (traffic cone you see near chevrons on the road). Also I didn't get the double with Mr Kipling cakes, and Rudyard Kipling's missing son until you mentioned that, cheers man these bars have layers for days...
When you "box something off" you eat it really fast like you were starving. "Box a man off like jollof" also means he obviously beat him up and Jollof rice ( from Ghana ) is great.
Won't lie i new to Pete and Bas but i love them. Took time to do research and the fact they write all this stuff and only get help from their grandkids for the modern slang is truly awesome. They are proof music is for all ages races all of humanity period. They have made my playlist
...Jollof, or jollof rice, is a rice dish from West Africa. The dish is typically made with long-grain rice, tomatoes, onions, spices, vegetables and meat in a single pot.
yo, guy in the cap understands bars mannn, damn, I heard sindhu sesh like atleast 45 times and I didn't connect the "Connects me back home like a wifi router, cats jump in like puma" I knew cats jump in like puma was women trying to hit on him but "jump in" actually meant sharing an uber, damn man, does the dude in the cap have a channel because holy shit he catches bars and explains them almost perfectly, you missed the "get shelled on, big bang theory" as in bang from a shotgun with the shell, plus Sheldon from big bang theory the show
Pete may well call all vacuum cleaners hoovers, but in this instance it was specifically a sneaky way of referencing the persistent idea that J. Edgar Hoover might have ordered the assassination of MLK
Actually it’s a triple entendre. Hoover could also mean J Edgar Hoover, the director of the FBI in the 60s. The bar before that was “I dream like Martin Luther” and Hoover wanted MLK dead. “Fall asleep to the sound of the Hoover” is a wild bar if you interpret it that way. It might be a stretch for 2 UK guys but they’re old enough to know the reference and the bars are right next to each other. I don’t think it’s a coincidence.
Bird is a reference to doing jail time not cocaine/drugs.. saying that the guy in the hat has caught more bars in this reaction than any video I've seen.. well done!

Pretty cool how he links the MLK bar to "black and white we can be brothers" at the end of the scheme before Bas takes over.

You're mate catches everything, he's the best I've seen. Give him your channel and play with your hair somewhere else.
#Facts 🎯🎯🎯
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Give him that work and he will get better.
🤣🤣🤣 fall asleep to the sound of a hoover, a hoovers not a gun, it’s a vacuum cleaner

Best club in the world don’t know what yous are thinking
@@charliehadfield510 would be nothing without money, doubt you were a fan before the club got bought
@@YvngAjay I’m not having it 🤣
Dude on the left wasnt even listening 😂 those bars flew right past him
I think he was trying 😂 His friend is just the smarter one lol
Jollof aka Jollof rice- every West African party will have this dish.
This isn’t a reaction this is a dude explaining bars to his friend lmao
Class reaction lads. I can’t believe how slept on the Betty Crocker bar is from Bas in his first verse.
There too young they don't bake no cakes lol
And the mlk/hoover line
@@judshuttie70 that's why most people miss that battenburg line.
@@easelove yes I thought maybe Kipling part might help them find that one but it's a great bar
Came here to say that. LOL.

I Luved How Ya'll React And Breakdown Every Verse Of The Song. Because I Missed Out Some Of What They Were Saying. Great Reaction Ya'll👍🏿💯👍🏿
Dodged the case so I Flipped the bird is referencing to uk slang where bird means jail so he flipped the middle finger and skipped the jail time is what he’s getting at
Thanks! you really broke down the bars compared to all other reactions I've watched
That’s what we here for 🔥
2 references I picked up on that could also have an alternative interpretation, 1 flippin the bird could also reference avoiding jail time as in the phrase doing bird is common for, as in bird in a cage, being behind bars, 2 referencing to taking his jewels could mean jewellery but also his crown jewels common London slang for genitals. Those are just my thoughts I could be wrong.
They also mention HMP which is a reference to prison.
Bird is a also a reference for a woman.
These are OG’s they’ve been gangster since tv was black and white
True it was Her Majesty's Prison at the time. It's His Majesty's Prison now. Still kinda wild.
Best reactor , caught every bar , watch more Pete and Bad
Not quite. There were many more but he did a great job. Some were really complex and would be easily overlooked due to relating to history and UK slang
Not gonna lie I love your reaction because you are describing the bars properly unlike most people
MAN LIKE MILLS!!! WELCOME BACK KING!! BEST UK BREAKDOWNS ON THIS CHANNEL 👑👑👑
@2:43 also possible he's talking about J. Edgar Hoover the director of the FBI when MLK was alive.
You laugh at the 10 rounds bar but apparently bas went down for running an underground bare knuckle boxing ring or some shit like that
the hoover line is a reference to j edgar hoover
Yep, j edgar hoover allegedly had a hand in Martin Luther Kings death, not many people catch that one.
HOMEBOY WITH THE HAT IS VERY ON POINT WITH CATCHING THE BARS, OH YEAH BOLLUCKS MEANS BALLS, HE SAYS HIS CHAIN HANGS LIKE BOLLUCKS = BALLS
Don’t know if anyone mentioned this, but the last line about “chavving his jewels” is a double bar that refers to cutting off someone’s … ah … manly bits OR stealing someone’s literal jewelry. (The more you know.)
Bro a hoover is a vacuum cleaner. We call vacuum cleaners hoovers in Uk my g
Dude on the right… well done bro. Supreme understanding. 👌
that bar about "had a dream like Martin Luther, fall asleep to the sound of the Hoover" goes over a lot of heads. J. Edgar Hoover head of the FBI hated MLK but MLK kept doing his thing
Editor's Chelsea fan! 💙
😂😂😂
Jollof rice is West African as I recall. It's part of many delicious African dishes. Highly recommend you try it!
its nice seeing young cats still caring about lyics! big ups from canada
6:06s is probably the first Sindhu Sesh react I have seen catch the double reference of "moving weight in and out of the gym"
You guys catching more of the bars and references than most. There's even more there too but lots of UK and old man specific stuff that you really have to be UK based to catch
Bravo boys, best breakdown I’ve seen which is impressive from Americans as the slang is different 🙏👊🇬🇧
Awesome vid. Homie with the hoodie was clocked in, he caught those bars immediately. Not many people catch on like that and understand the references! Keep it going boys.
"Hoover" is British slang for a vacuum cleaner 🙂
How did he catch almost all of the intricate bars, but silence for "Shelled On; Big Bang Theory" & "get split like Chevron"? Other honorable mention bars, "Kippling end up missing". That was a famous missing case in the UK. & I think they missed the "😢Bet, He Crocker" bar too 🤔

Dude with the cap on is catching ALL the bars more then any other reaction I have seen and I watched a lot 😅
When you "box something off" you eat it really fast like you were starving. "Box a man off like jollof" also means he obviously beat him up and Jollof rice ( from Ghana ) is great.
Jewels talking bout their nuts as well as jewelry. Ten rounds was referring to bullets in a clip and boxing
Oh shit flipped the bird.. bird or doing bird is slang for prison time too.. so good!
5 star food refers to top quality drugs too, as well as 10 10 gear that he's shifting.
Won't lie i new to Pete and Bas but i love them. Took time to do research and the fact they write all this stuff and only get help from their grandkids for the modern slang is truly awesome. They are proof music is for all ages races all of humanity period. They have made my playlist
Great reaction! Need to listen to Pete and Bas Plugged in.
...Jollof, or jollof rice, is a rice dish from West Africa. The dish is typically made with long-grain rice, tomatoes, onions, spices, vegetables and meat in a single pot.
Wow my man is catching bars I dint even see and I'm all about UK drill gd job boys
Every time i see this kid his knowledge amazes me
Nice reaction guyz. Pete and Bas, bars upon bars, no filler. If you want suggestions: Lightwork Freestyle, Golf, Old Estate, Bermondsey 👍🏽👋🏽👋🏽
wow, i found some class reaction channel right here, catching all of those bars... subscribed..
yo, guy in the cap understands bars mannn, damn, I heard sindhu sesh like atleast 45 times and I didn't connect the "Connects me back home like a wifi router, cats jump in like puma" I knew cats jump in like puma was women trying to hit on him but "jump in" actually meant sharing an uber, damn man, does the dude in the cap have a channel because holy shit he catches bars and explains them almost perfectly, you missed the "get shelled on, big bang theory" as in bang from a shotgun with the shell, plus Sheldon from big bang theory the show
Cats jump in like puma can also mean (cats as in people) jumping in to fight
I been watching hella reaction and this the best one
your homie dont like understand shit but that what makes it lit lmao
Hoover bar was partially missed since it was a triple entandre.
“The Hoover, that’s a gun too!” Nah bro, that’s a vacuum.
Yo they r fire y can't they blow up here
Flip the bird in old uk slang means that he dodged jail time and also he flipped the bird at the feds the word play these mf do is crazy
Hoover is a vacuum cleaner, guys 😂 not a gun
I think by Hoover her meant the robot vacuum meaning he has a lot of money.
Bredda with the cap on. Yes fam.
Hoover is a vacuum. Not a gun. Sometimes Hoover is a damn or a person's sir name. But not a gun
Dude in cap seen it 1000 times and researched every bar
hoover = vacuum cleaner brand
numptified as it gets
Mash is also slang for a gun that's on the police database for being involved in a shooting.
Everything Bas say a triple
White Homie catching all the bars. bad ass. Definitely subbing
Yall remind me of some folks I used to hoop with
Haha, a hoover means a vacuum cleaner for the US folk
Actually they are talking about the Hoover vacuum cleaner.
You were sick at breaking down the bars. ..but gutted you missed the Sheldon/ Shelled On Big Bang Theory bar 😔
Jollof is a West African rice dish. I am assuming he is referring to boxing a man like Jollof is boxed for takeout. Somebody help me on that part.
my dude to the right clueless af :D
Lugar is a German pistol.
It’s like how we call all adhesive bandages bandaids in the States. All vacuums in the U.K are (generally) called Hoovers.
Pete may well call all vacuum cleaners hoovers, but in this instance it was specifically a sneaky way of referencing the persistent idea that J. Edgar Hoover might have ordered the assassination of MLK
@@Tekapeel It is more than likely a “double,” or double entendre. A word, that in context, has more than one meaning.
Actually it’s a triple entendre. Hoover could also mean J Edgar Hoover, the director of the FBI in the 60s. The bar before that was “I dream like Martin Luther” and Hoover wanted MLK dead. “Fall asleep to the sound of the Hoover” is a wild bar if you interpret it that way.
It might be a stretch for 2 UK guys but they’re old enough to know the reference and the bars are right next to each other. I don’t think it’s a coincidence.
@@Dxydrm it’d still be a double that’s part of a MLK scheme.
Could be wrong though.
i know, I am stating why he specifically had to choose 'hoover' in this instance instead of 'vacuum'. Because 'vacuum' wouldn't work for the double.
A bird is a life sentence too.
Nice to see my guys got good taste in footie teams
Good reaction Guys.
Love the reaction!! Also react to more of edot baby!!
Bird is a reference to doing jail time not cocaine/drugs.. saying that the guy in the hat has caught more bars in this reaction than any video I've seen.. well done!
It was a double entendre. That kid in the hat is on point.
3 minutes into the video, we are not even past the first verse and the brother is tangle in his hoodie.
They slap 😂 also nice vid I’ll def check you guys out
Sub-machine gun, tell a man "run that"
Chavving his jewels then I’m off to his mum's house
How did u miss the big bang theory bar
Bas was an underground boxer, his father owned an illegal boxing ring. 10 rounds is nothing new to him.
hoover is a reference to president hoover and the death of MLK
....hoover is also a worldwide brand of a vacuum cleaner
Battenburg is a cake and Kipling is a cake brand here.
Yall missed the Big Bang theory bar🔥🔥🔥

If you've only had tuna from a can, then yes, it is disgusting. You should try some fresher stuff some time. Excellent
