About Pete & Bas

Pete & Bas () are a British hip hop duo based in London, formed in 2017. The duo consists of two rap artists, Peter (Pete) Bowditch and Basil (Bas) Bellgrave, who are both in their 70s. They are notable for songs such as "The Old Estate", "Dents in a Peugeot", and their debut single, "Shut Ya Mouth”. They released their first single in 2017 with "Shut Ya Mouth". Pete discovered his enjoyment for hip hop after his granddaughter played rap music on his car radio. He shared this with Bas, and they decided it would be fun to release it on YouTube. "Shut Ya Mouth" was an immediate success and went viral, prompting them to begin creating new music. They have also performed successfully in gigs and concert tours across major European cities and have over a million followers on Instagram. The duo have collaborated with several notable artists. Their single "The Old Estate" features rapper M24, and includes a video filmed on an estate in Rotherhithe, and at Millwall football stadium. After releasing a song named after the singer T-Pain, he joined Pete & Bas on a remix version in 2024. Pete & Bas have also collaborated with Norman Pain and Patrick Karneigh, Jr. of the Northern Boys. Their first album Mugshot was released on 22 November 2024.
