Craig David in general

'Craig David' - an ordinary name for a truly ordinary singer. Only in the current climate of bland chart music could this man become this popular. He is the musical equivalent of instant mashed potato. Nevertheless, I would prefer to be fed instant mashed potato all day, every day, for the rest of my life, than listen to David. At least instant mash hasn't got an ego and doesn't refer to itself in the third person. Never judge a book by its cover, says the proverb. Well, I think one glance at the cover of Southampton's finest's debut album is enough to disregard that particular philosophy. Could anyone look more up his own muso backside? ...  Read the complete review

Time to stop drooling now at the little cutie on the screen and get back to my screensaver of Craig David (yeah really, i ...  Read the complete review

Nobody can take away from Craig David the fact that he has doen really well in the past year, for anyone to come from a small time pirate radio station singer to world known R n B Star is astonishing. Maybe he is a little full of himself, but wouldn't you be the same after being such a famous figure in music? He has written some really good songs and can definately sign them well. He has also starred in some of the Artful Dodger's music and is set to keep going. All in all, this guy has a good future and as long as the music stays good and original - then he'll still get a good following. ...  Read the complete review

Craig David’s songs are totally overplayed by both music television and radio. When you first hear them, you like them, but as they are played so much, you get totally bored of them. This has been the case with his first two singles, Fill Me In, and Seven Days. This happened even before the songs had been released, meaning that Craig David is the one losing out as he does not make as much money through sales of his CD’s. He is also a very good live singer. Please stop overplaying so much, and spoiling his music. ...  Read the complete review

I have read a few reviews on Dooyoo criticising Craig David and to be honest I can see where they are coming from. His songs are good and there’s no doubt that he’s a talented musician. But, whenever I watch the video’s like ‘7 days’ and ‘Walking Away’ I always get the impression he loves himself a bit too much. If you listen closely before every video and every song he was always says ‘Craig David’ about seven to eight times, I mean do we really not know who we are listening to, I’m sure we already know. So, I can see that arrogant and obnoxious side in him. However, all biases aside, ...  Read the complete review
