Pete & Bas - "Bish Bash Bosh"

Pete & Bas quickly became my favorite new rap group when I stumbled upon them a few years ago. I'd gotten so bored with rap, at least current American mainstream rap, that I was suffering from burnout. Pete & Bas were not only interesting because of what many considered a "gimmick", 2 older English guys rapping, but because the music is so damn good.

The production is wild. Let's just start there. Whoever produces their music has been making straight up bangers. From Grime to proper hip-hop, the beats his so hard. "Bish Bash Bosh" produced by 91shots is no different. The haunting melody over hard, fast-paced drums is nasty.

The bars and word-play are off the chain. Combine that when the characters and their voices and you have a recipe for a hit. Bas (taller bloke) has a smoother, deeper voice where Pete is gravely and more aggressive. Pinky and the Brain dynamic without the idiocy of Pinky.
