8 reasons to be delighted with Craig David's return to music

He stopped making love this Thursday to release new music.

CRAIG DAVID. SEVEN daaays.

Yes, it is indeed, the return of the mack. R’n'B lothario Craig David today released a new song, and it’s literally music to our ears. The British singer has been off our radar since his last original album in 2007.

But now, he’s back, with a single about MDMA. Erm, yeah.
