Oooh, I’m liking this new direction from Craig David. His new single, 6 Of 1 Thing is a continuation of that pure pop style he launched a couple of months ago with Hot Stuff (Let’s Dance).

The Urban Review blog made an interesting comment about Craig, saying that he’s “been a star for quite a while but never really gained that ‘musical respect’ that some British artists have.”

I guess that’s what’s so refreshing about Craig at the moment – he’s having fun with the music, doesn’t seem to have any cravings for industry recognition. Gone is the super-slick kid from years ago and in his place is a beefier Craig David with less pretentious tunes and a smile on his face.

As I say, don’t expect miracles from this tune – it’s very much in the same mould as the last single. But it’s a catchy, chartworthy effort at the same time. Kudos, Craig, keep it up!
