Craig David is back! Though he has continued to be a major R&B star in the U.K.—with 11 Top 10 singles hits— the smooth singer-songwriter has not been heard in the U.S. for a few years. Trust Me, which debuted Top 20 in late 2007 in the U.K., spurred by the Top 10 "Hot Stuff (Let's Dance)," returns David to center stage in America. Trust Craig David to stay there.

Album Description
Limited enhanced Japanese pressing of the British R&B artist's 2007 album comes with two exclusive audio bonus tracks, 'Hot Stuff (Let's Dance)' (Touch Mix) and 'Hot Stuff (Let's Dance)' (Chase & Status Remix). . Also features the enhanced video for the first single, 'Hot Stuff'. Recorded in Havana, Cuba with producer Martin Terefe (KT Tunstall, James Morrison) and writer/producer/mixer Fraser T. Smith (Craig David, Kano, Beyonce, Plan B, Jamelia), the track '6 of 1 Thing' emphasizes how Cuban musical culture influenced his new work, whilst the ballad 'Awkward' features some of his most evocative lyrics to date. Other highlights include the infectious hook and insistent rhythms of the title track, and 'She's On Fire' which combines sublime bass with Craig's fluid lyrical flow. With 13 million album sales worldwide and still only 26 years old, Craig David has earned a reputation as one of the UK's foremost talents, as well as one of the nation's most successful musical exports. WEA. 2007.

Customer Reviews

Weak.
What happened to the effortless flow and smooth beats of CD's first two albums? He seems to be forcing the energy in this album. It isn't working. And the single has a sample that's been used over and over again in the last ten years. How about some originality or at least an original sample. Weak.

Trust Me
How the hell are you going to ask me to trust you and then come out with this? Can you fill me in on where your career went? I use to do chicks to Born to Do it. I wouldn't admit to chicks that I own this CD. Craig, you owe me one.

Awesome release from Craig David
R&B singer Craig David has released his fourth CD "Trust Me." The album is available in the United States, which is a plus for fans of the international singer. The U.K. singer is best known in the U.S. for his hits "Fill Me In," and "7 Days" from his early release "Born To Do It." "Trust Me," is a funky collection of eleven songs. The first single from the album, "Hot Stuff," is an up-tempo dance track that borrows a sample from the David Bowie classic "Let's Dance." "Friday Night" is a great funky R&B flavored song.

The U.K. second single, "6 of 1 Thing," is a really awesome song. The vocals are really good and the music is far different than anything Craig David has ever released. It's guaranteed to spawn re-mixes and it's a great dance song. "Awkward" is a mellow laid back soulful track. It's one of the stand out songs on the album. "Just A Reminder" is a smooth R&B album track. "Officially Yours" is a beautiful song. It's one of Craig David's most memorable ballads. It's really a great song. It was the third single released from the album in the U.K.

"Kinda Girl for Me," is a mid-tempo song that borrows from a classic sample. It's a nice summer time type of song. "She's on Fire," is one of the hottest songs on the album. It's crazy funky. Craig David really did a great job on this song and his fans will be pleased. "Don't Play With Our Love," is a crazy dance track. Craig David's vocals are on point and the music is fantastic. Performed with a live band, "Don't Play With Our Love," is another stand out track on the album.

"Top of the Hill," is a slow song. It's not quite a ballad. It's kind of melancholy in nature, it's storytelling in nature reminiscent of the song "Johnny," from his third album "The Story Goes..." The album ends with the song "This Is The Girl," featuring U.K R&B artist Kano. This fast tempo song is a great way to end the album.

Craig David fans will really be pleased with "Trust Me." The album displays Craig David's growth as an artist as he delves more into his own unique style of R&B. "Trust Me," is not the kind of album that will put you to sleep. The up-tempo songs stand out and there are few ballads on the album. Craig David fans will enjoy "Trust Me."
