He was 17 years old when he wrote this, so sad because nothing has changed in the mean time

Devs one of the most underated mc's in the uk imo

Like Lowkey says "the American Dream only exists if your sleeping." Statistically if your born into poverty your 99% likely to die in it also. The tiny percentage of people that make it out are held aloft as a supposed example of - the boot trap meme. This is also a demonstration of why Grime is amazing and also why it will never be mainstream, because you either get it or you don't. There's no middle ground. Great reaction :)

Mad to see. Never thought I'd see you react to a song from my home town. Not so much now days but at the time this was out, this is how it was 100%

Devlin is lyrically outstanding. His freestyle stuff is brilliant. Check him out on the Charlie sloth show.

Exceptional breakdown of the lyrics and the imagery 👏🏻 Look forward to watching more of your reactions!

That was phenomenal. Just love hearing real people tell it like it is. I will look up more of his stuff. Thanks EB

Just a note to say the legendary comedian Jethro has passed, he will remain a legend. RIP.

Fantastic to see the music reactions making a comeback, great reaction thanks 😊 Devlin is often underrated, but he's a brilliant talent. Saw him live in 2010, one of the best sets I've ever seen. Great lyricist and songwriter, as well as having ridiculous flow 👌

i forgot about this song , used to listen to it all the time

You should try and find Devlin and ed Sheeran before ed was famous. Devlin made him known and they used to make loads of tracks together

my all time favourite rapper he was only 16 when we wrote this !!!!

Like a lot of people are saying it's not changed only getting worse r.i.p to Arthur labinjo Hughes and star Hobson truly disgusting what the people who were supposed to be looking after you did to you

I loved this review, I watched it 3 times, cheers mate

I've been listening to this guy since day ! Nice one dev , kills it !

Brilliant breakdown of the lyrics good reaction

met devlin a few times grew up in the same place n hes a real one this is one of his best and deep tunes that isnt recognized as much as it should be.

This is probably one of the only song that gets me in my feels just so real and relatble

This is still relevant in 2221 that's the worst thing about this

Devlins mum said to him make a happy song…. He came with this tear jerking tune….. what a leg :,(

Another quality video, keep up the consistency

And its still happening

The UK is pretty fucked up and heroin is everywhere. This is pretty much how my life ended up, clean now for 12 years but got told i had COPD misses left me with my 2 kids and can't work so have to rely on friends and family and the government. It's really fucked up . That track spoke truth.

Og 🐐

It’s a reality check

The mum bar gets me every time 😢

Check out devlin run away

Even worse now

👌❤❤❤

Do more UK reactions 🇬🇧 🇺🇸

Great reaction i love watching your videos 👏 can you react to Rhyme Asylum - Poison Penmanship? Its uk HorrorCore Rap with unbelievable bars i think it would be right up your street.

You sleeping on Wretch 32
