Little information is known about CAS. CAS is from Tottenham, North London, which has stapled itself as a huge part of the emerging grime culture. Tottenham is also home to many fellow artists and pioneers such as Skepta, Wretch 32 and Chip. CAS has previously said in an interview that he worked at a children’s nursery however this was likely to toy on the fact that his lifestyle is not child friendly.

He emerged in early 2005 under the aliases Castro and Castro Saint and he released a few grime tracks and freestyles before fading back into the background. However he emerged again in 2012 under the name CASISDEAD, likely reflecting on his disappearance.

In December 2014 his debut album ‘The Number 23’ was released on iTunes. The album helped boost his following with some of the more notable songs featured being ‘Leon Best’, ‘Play’ and ‘All Hallows’, produced by Detroit rapper Danny Brown’s very own SKYWLKR. His career has been massively helped by features such as Jme and Professor Green helping to push his name out there. However his biggest push into the limelight came from Giggs, who featured CAS multiple times on his 2016 ‘Landlord’ album.
