am i the only one who plays this most days
Nah me too. Sort of like a reminder that I'm not that special
Nope
At least 1 a week
Same bruv❤
No
You're not the one. peace
cas is by far the most underrated artist in the uk
More like the world. CAS > Anyone anybody can think of...
+Norman Heist Yeah, Not for fuckin long dough
I keep telling you how is he underrated?? If you know cas you KNOW he's the king, end offfffff
Actually, probably FULLSTOP!
no cadet is
Cas is a hidden gem in the UK. Elusive as it gets. Easily one of the best lyricists in the UK.
Slept on well too much his and giggs link up are 🔥
World*
Totally agree
Thankyou Cas, one of the tracks that made me realise one of the problems I was dealing with. I’m nearly 2 weeks clean and just over the hump now I reckon, been hell but you hit the nail on the head with everything, even down to jail. That would have been my escape and I was planning a postie to get into jail, either that or blow my nut off. Doing this for my daughter, never going down that slope again. Anyway, this track is still changing lives even 6 years on. Fuck the gear, temporary relief for a permanent problem. Respect, and mad how spot on this is to my life. I know two weeks isn’t long but after banging £200+ a day for 3 years and going cold turkey I’m doing ok. Withdrawal is no joke, just don’t start guys. Evil shit
keep the strength my brother
Did you read the song description? This song is based off a real story, i think he takes the interview verbatim and turned it into lyrics. Check it out. It might help you too!
Don’t need to plan if your planning to go jail. Just saying 😂
Still clean?
Update us brother, praying for you.
This hits hard
+TBJZL tru
Proves how fucked the world we live
dumb fifa youtuber move from here
Didn't know you listened to Cas 😳 yeah, deep tune!
+TBJZL good seeing Toby here. Has good change in music
People describing this as a banger need to expand their vocabulary. I'm not taking anything away from it, just banger is not the right word for a tune like this.
+Jake Evans yeah you're right mate
+Jake Evans powerful insight
+ComplexMedia all I'm saying is people should be more like Cas. He clearly has a versatile vocab.
+Jake Evans pure art mate
+Jake Evans oh shut up
This is the new 'drugs don't work'
Cas' story telling ability is second to none.
this would be dangerous to watch on a sunday mornin
Fuck
Joshua Conlon fuck
trust it is
Ahh fuckin hell
If I watched this on a come down I'd never do any drug again lol
this shits crazy impressive, good job dude
simon ples
My don max
I can relate to so much in this track. drugs have cost me some of the best things in my life. I still struggling with it now.
It's never to late brother, stay strong
+Ben O'Neill nice one mate
still around?
Chris you ok bro?
How you doing Chris?
He said "my friend blew out his brains" then it cut to a close up of the spurs logo on man's hat............🤣
Finally the story from the other end! big!
This is 100 percent the rawest tune cas has ever made if you know what hes talking about this is actually crazy
If every politician listened and learned from stories like this Britain would be fixed overnight!
Deserves an award, absolutely incredible video and lyrics.
I got so excited getting a notification through for this new track. Cas never dissapoint's.
I couldn't open my phone fast enough!!!
Thank fuck for Cas
haha u kno that mate
+Andy Cole That apostrophe disappoints me.
+tomzablee Yeah I apologise for that poor bit of grammar. 😅
WOW that was deep man, i had goosebumps, CAS is just on another level
Bruv I’m here in 2020 and beyond
CAS is his own, I fucking love this guy, I wish he would being new things out like I bare like his music, I'm a dark little cunt so yh shoe fits ahaha
Word up
@@Didthyknoweth 2022 still jammin CAS all the time 🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘💯💯
Same son x
@@Didthyknoweth 😊
The Simon Trilogy: Castro 'Drugs', Casisdead 'Drugs Don't Work', and Casisdead 'Simon'
Pops up at the end of the grid as well.
fuck mate u just blew my mind
@@ak-9295 fuck i just gave the other guy my respect for spotting that but wtf man ur right
Simon the client and right hand man
Cas has got the vocab that most artists are missing these days. Clearly educated that's what i'm talking about good stuff.
A forgotten demographic of society
Literally no one sounds like cass.
Such a unique artist. I come back to this song year after year
2021 still listening
The realest and most original artist I've seen in years. Always looking forward to his new releases - never disappoints!
Most innovative artist we've got.. Really is pushing boundaries with this shit
It's amazes me that this is so unknown, I mean yeah he's not signed and is rather eccentric, but...this really is just brilliant and I thought more people would realise that fact.
Nice to see I'm not alone at least.
Hes too deep for the masses
His stories of addiction is held back for a reason and the controller's know thiz for if the people of the world don't know or recognise the power of the tell a vision and it's mission of brainwashing people to self destruction then they would seek out the other side of the agenda and not fall for the promotion of drugs ex and if shown anuff times the shit it causes then subconscious mind would be brainwashed for the good and right reasons and finally stop taking it on the chin when realising that you have been brainwashed and boyed off Blessings 🍀♥️🙏
wow....CAS you never disappoint. you are too underrated. mad props
Top level production + Phenomenal lyrics.
Feel like it's a ritual to listen that Track every week even though life is getting better with all the shit we've all been through
Little update : shits happens and it's going down. Loneliness is going to knock out me but happily I have Simon to remember me that everything is fucked anyway
How you getting on. Hit me back.
@@YouWantSumMT2 How you doing buddy?
@Shaun Chalal @CustardCream33 Hello, hope you're both good. So the situation here, is that CAS put out Boys Will Be Boys a bit after i broke up with my wife, it helped me a bit, and since i'm not with her anymore, i'm getting better, going to the gym everyday, have a stable Job working at Lidl even tho it isn't what i was doing before Covid. This shit fucked me up so bad, the depression still here, the loneliness less but sometimes i get very depressed even though i'm living way more than before.
Now i'll focus on myself instead to get better and do the things i always wanted in hope it make me happy.
unbelievable cas u never disappoint
Masterpiece, love the instrumental!
fien Simon dialed me in he's tryna buy a ting
He's mad I used to look down on him
+Lewis Croston piping up and firing
Talking to myself, not recognizing who's replying
+ricky silinskas
I'm becoming so much like the clients that I've been supplying
hard bars
+SaggySackModz fuck the sentamental shiit I'm mental an I get mortal like!
Absolute genius, his lyrics paint a picture.
so so dark but so on point. Amazing lyrics, ice cold beat. CAS
Heavy as fuck. CAS is big, love from Florida
& I'm drunk so I'll apologize for my fellow asshole Americans dissing grime talm bout they dont get the accent and shit hahahahah Simon, where's my dough
trust, he needs a grime tune with Danny Brown
CAS and Danny have already stated their respect for each other on Twitter, that shit would be sick
+Yung Astral This isn't even grime
+tomzablee Castro's been grime, but i was talking about in general
Yung Astral
I know
This is the same simon he was demanding dough from 11 years ago for that consignment looooolJokes aside this is brilliant, visually and lyrically haunting. Nobody quite depicts debauchery and misery with wit and dark humour like CAS!
+Stefan2SERB nice comment bruh
Spot on
His alter ego, henchman, cat, fiend, Si - hats off - he done gone full circle!
Fucker is the best rapper in the UK . I bump his music in LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA
__________k86 NYC here. This guys a fuckin legend.
Who here in 2019?
Real g from day dot
Bruv I’m here in 2020 and beyond
Always got to come back and listen to the rawness now and again
this song always pulls me out of a binge before i lose me teeth.... until next time.
One of the coldest things I’ve ever heard paints a perfect image in the brain of the story
Banger!!💯
first time i heard it didnt rate it, grows on ya
See it first day it was released and boy was it scary. Love the visuals its the area im from
Still one of the best
My man, lyrical madness. Big up bro!
This is why got notifications on for this channel
CAS's musical ability is absolutely incredible, so powerful! 2016 could be his..
Everyhing line is superb
conceptual masterpiece bruv. been a fan from day n think that u set tha harsh vivid "actual" reality of drug abuse from , both , sides of tha spectrum better than any other m.c in tha u.k past or present . respect for tha effort ya give to tha world to do that, real talk. if ya know ya know
Always coming back to this track. Castro is the hardest
The son and daughter lyrics made me cry. Real reality. Modern music played on the airways dont show the real
the most deepest and versatile rapper in the uk hands down
"steady headed to my eventual obsolescence"
king cas
Top 5 lyricist ...
top 1 artist though. everything about this video is amazing - simon's delusions of being on panorama, asking how their xmas was (shut up!), the pure desperation fitting perfectly with the production
as much as i love cas' gassed tunes i keep coming back to this track and it's just perfect
I cry nearly everytime i hear this one of my favourite tracks from CAS so fukkin dope!!!!Yeah yeah all the way from AUSTRALIA!!!! Mad love
*THIS IS DEEP.*
class vids everytime this is the future.
This man is so deep. Can listen to his music all day.
Can not believe this only has 250k views.
Great tune, video on point as always, but I've never seen anyone throw change in a bin.
Cinematic 🔥
some realness right there.This y I love you CAS 💯
Unreal 👌
Cas is unreal he raps about nothing but drugs (his love hate relationship with them) but it never gets boring. And the first time I heard this song the twist literally gave me goosebumps he's an underrated genius he need to release another full album like the number 23 that was the first thing I heard from him and there's not one skippable track on it
the twist? you mean that hes talking to a dealer
@@leepaul07 yeah man i didn't see that coming, cause he was pouring his heart out i wouldnt have thought a dealer would listen to all that, but the way the dealers like 'fuck off' cause cas is short just shows he only sees him as money
@@bigshane2011 it’s the other way round. That’s why it’s the filter. “Simon” the junkie is giving him a sob story to try get some drugs because he’s short again. After every bar or 2 you can hear cas reply to simon.
simons still knockin about lol got so gassed seeing this in my feed big track!
fucked up and on point as usual.
This should of got way more recognition than it got.
true artist you are mate
One of his best
Cas fucking killed it.. What the fuck. Nah.. Nah. Fuck off man. What? This is too fucking much. This is fucking art. I swear. Shit...
SpeedFreak What? lol
SpeedFreak Oh, lmao. Mate I was so confused when I read that lool.
+SpeedFreak l00000000000l
"oi Simon" "What" "wheres my Dough"
have i been thick as fuck and not noticed the entire song is fiend simon trying to sob-story blag some brown and white off a dealer? i mean i know the actual point is that in the end hes actually speaking to a dealer, but ive only just listened to all the adlibs in the background that are actually the dealer at the end replying to simons begging through the entire tune. nuff respect cos if thats correct this got 10 levels deeper than it was anyway
I was thinking the same after listening to it this time round. CAS is up there, if not the best. Shit should be studied in schools, lol.
FORDZ this dude blew my mind hahaha lyrical high
yeah bruv I caught that too, seriously deep construction and on other songs the wordplay is absolutely mad.
Fuck up you spas
Confirmed even more so by the transition when he's saying "I'll take one white and 2 b, those ones there look the best" and it warps from the interviewer to the dealer in a dream like transition.
Banger
Eye opener...
CAS I NEED MORE
Cas never fails to deliver.
This guy is hugely underrated
drugs don't work part 2
Respect from Romania
Nothing but realness from Cas. Again!! #TheHardestToTouchDown
Powerful
POWERFUL
cas... you made me cry
So heavy. CAS is so underrated. He needs to do an Australia tour and come to Perth Western Australia. Man some of those lyrics in this song hit you hard its like his other song " you might be scared". Realest rapper out wish we could see the man unmasked

SIMON LYRICS
[Verse - CAS portraying Simon]
I threw my life away
Night and day I pipe away
Left my family feeling some type of way
The powder's grey, my eyes are grey, the skies are grey
I like the H, I like the yay
But I'd like to say I'm different now, I'm not the same
I've changed
I'm no longer that man who would dig through the bins just to find some change
People still walk past me in the street and say I look strange
My skin's dry, my hair's matted, my clothes are covered in stains
All this Methadone that I'm taking, it can't get rid of these pains
It was too much for my friend *blank* he blew out his brains
Wife took my kids away
But I thought I saw my son just last Saturday
I waved but he stared at me then looked away
Could of been him, he always kept his feelings locked away
Track marks down to my fist, I stink of piss
I've got the shits and my pants have got skids
It ain't true I swear I never touched them kids
I was just trying to show them something, I tripped and my right hand slipped
Robbed a Post Office, my only goal was to fail
Swear I did it just so I could go back to jail
Three square meals a day, it's my favourite hotel
It's hard to use in there so I couldn't wait to get out my cell
Back to grifting, shop lifting and sifting through the trash
There wasn't many things that I wouldn't do for cash
My lowest point was when I had to give this one dealer a bash
He wasn't even a smack, he only had this tiniest bit of ash
Slept in the doorway of the local
Just so the local youts wouldn't catch me and stomp me out
I'll cut myself so I can stay in hospital for a night
It's cold outside, or at least until these shakes subside
Robbed a pregnant woman's smartphone, I had to do it
How do you watch TV? I can't figure out how to do it
Sold it at 2:30 for 40 and by 3 I blew it
It wasn't even enough, arrgh ya see I fucking knew it
I need to cure my sickness but no money for a prescription
Deep in my addiction and cursed with this affliction
Chances of going back to work fade with each conviction
Everyone just writes you off, with such conviction
The council won't house me no more, they've stopped the bedsits
Kicked me out last time, I ain't slept in a bed since
You would think I would have learnt from one of these fucking lessons
Instead I'm steady headed to my eventual obsolescence
The light of the lord shines bright and with such fluorescence
Except on me, my life's been quite unpleasant
Excuse me for being depressing, how are you? How was your Xmas? Get any presents?
I found some chicken breasts round the back of M&S
It was freezing, I was in a dirty vest
I cooked them in the corner, fucking burnt my chest
Think about my daughter and it fucking burns my chest
If I don't drink a bit of water first, it hurts my head
Anyway, I digress
To answer your question, yes
I'll take one white and two B
Those ones there look the best
(Nah you can't have those ones, take this one here, that one)
I'm a bit short, I'll link you back with the rest
(Yeah now, give us it or fuck off)
Still a tune in 2023
Nice man
This is deep! Big up cas! 👌🏻
I relate to this song far too much.
We need more tunes like this and ddw please Castro
As real as it gets, true words
Cold cold tune xxx
I completely relate Cas
Here I am still addicted
THE BEST.
@ Norman Heist hit the nail on the head with that comment geeze couldn't agree more!
Real Talk, Cas is more than levels
This is colder than anything ive ever heard
cant say i didnt shed a tear
This is some next level story telling shit , CAS is so underrated in the UK it's a fucking shame
beat is so crazy + that CAS flow here.. I have weird feeling wit this track, only me?
after 2 years, still sikkkk____ * 1:49
real shit !!! big up from CZECH
