I think Craig deserves a bit more recognition as an r&b artist, I mean he practically carries UK r&b on his shoulders, and I mean he's a hit with the ladies and I can understand why, no homo hahaha.

Honestly I mean tracks like "7 Days" and "Spanish" are great r&b songs.

Anyone agree with me?

Totally agree D-Mac. Born to Do It is a 2-step classic. Slicker Than your Average is a great follow-up that's more hiphop/mainstream but still quality. And The Story Goes is a great pop/rnb record thats probably his most personal work to date. Dude is creative, has amazing flow with the music, and his voice is as good as anybody in the game today, yet you never hear his name when people talk about the supersatrs(usher, chris brown, trey songz, mario, etc.) even his b-side songs are great(nobody has to know, smoothed out, can you feel me). i'm listening to "Last Night" as we speak...

You brought up a good subject. I love me some Craig David he is sooooo fine to me. Anyways, I have his first album and that is such an amazing album. I plan on getting "Slicker Than Your Average" I don't have that one yet. I saw a new album of his in Circuit City so I said I'll go get that one. I hate that he underrated also. Even though I'm a fan of Usher I think he has Usher beat by a few points the man does have his own style and is just different. I don't know what is up with these people over here in the US they just don't know good music.

And if you're hinting at it, I'll get to work on adding him to the site :).

I am big on Mr. David. However, his newest stuff isn't really doing it for me for the most part.

Hey you know I get around ahhah no I was in the hospital for a while...

No I think Craig is always producing something new and fresh... off the new album I personally don't mind the song "officially yours"

But yeah dude the guy is a genius!

Hospital eh? You okay man?

I like some of his singles ex. "7 days" & "Fill Me In" but I like Lemar better. I think Lemar has got a better voice but not material.

Yeah I'm okay now thanks bro!

yeah Lemar is also pretty good, but I mean in terms of how well they've been able to take the R&B world, obviously Craig has got the upper hand...
