Pete Philly & Perquisite Discography



Pete Philly & Perquisite are a hip hop duo, originating from the Netherlands. Pieter Monzon "Pete Philly" (born 1980 in Aruba) is an MC and Pieter Perquin "Perquisite" (born 1982 in Amsterdam) plays cello, produces and writes all the music.
Their music is best described as hip hop, combined with jazz, broken beat and soul. They usually perform with help from DJ PCM (Misha van der Winkel), Remco Keijzer on saxophone and flute and Kasper Kalf on double-bass. On some occasions Pete's girlfriend Senna Gourdou comes out on stage and sings "Mellow" with them.

Pete Philly and Perquisite both had musical careers before they met in the autumn of 2002. They decided to collaborate and in 2003 their first EP The Mindstate EP came out. The EP received critical acclaim, which stimulated Pete Philly & Perquisite to record a full album in the likes of the EP. Each track of the album would represent a state of mind, hence the title Mindstate. The actual writing, recording and producing of the much anticipated album took 18 months in total, and included collaborations, with fellow Dutch rapper Cee-Major (The Proov), Dutch singer Senna Gourdou and American rapper Talib Kweli. The debut album was considered by critics as one of the best albums ever by Dutch artists, but albumsales weren't impressive. Critics often claimed that the album didn't sell as well as projected because the album might be too good for the Netherlands (in Dutch "onnederlands goed"). The duo did create a very solid fanbase with performances across Europe and also in the USA and South Africa. Success rose because of their performances and hitsongs in the likes of Mellow and Grateful. Their success led them to winning an Essent Award and a Zilveren Harp. They also have been nominated for a Dutch MOBO-award and for the prestigious Edison-award.

On August 20, 2006 they performed at the A Campingflight to Lowlands Paradise-festival for the second time, this time performing with the New Generation Big Band.
