!!!5 STAR SINGER!!!.......2004-06-22

hey guyes,
I LOVE Graig David,he rocks,he is the coolest I LOVE him...I expecially LOVE his cd Born To Do It I LOVE IT...yes,yes i know you might be thinking that the word I LOVE IT is my favorite word but it is not...anyways sence I LIKE Graig David I give him my 5 STAR(SINGER).... :)

The Man.......2002-08-27

Craig Daivid is a very powerful voice and he has such divercity, mixing hip hop, rap, and r+b all togeather to get a buch of hit songs and plus my wife gets all hot and bothered when i sing her his songs, lokking forward to the next cd he produces!

I WOULD GIVE IT 10 STARS IF I COULD!.......2001-10-11

Let me tell you, I have listened to this over and over and over, this cd is it! Craig can put you to sleep, make lyrical love to you and get you partying all at the same time!

My favorite? It's hard to say, I love the whole album, but I have to say that "Can't be Messing Around", "7 Days" and definitely "Walking Away". Craig is not what you would call a "Traditional" R&B singer, but he has that feel good kind of voice that you would love to listen to when you are feeling good and want something mellow. I travel with his CD in my car at all times.

The fact that Craig is fine as hell doesn't hurt either!! :)

Don't buy this if you think you are getting 2-step.......2001-07-23

I was suckered into thinking that this may be 2-step hitting the states and going mainstream, because of the heavy rotation of Craig David's Fill me in. Given he does have a great voice, don't buy this if you are looking for 2-step; you will be surely disappointed.

***OUTSTANDING DEBUT CD BY CRAIG DAVID***.......2001-06-15

The first time I heard Southampton singer Craig David was when he was topping the UK charts with the Artful Dodger (in collaboration with producer Mark Hill) in the hit RE-REWIND. Back then, most people were predicting big things for him and it now seems that they were right on the money. With the release of his maiden album which stormed the charts last year, he has proved himself to be a phenomenal success.

I can't really put my finger on just what is so unique about Craig David. However, having seen him perform live at the Brit Awards 2000 in Feb 2001 (which he was summarily snubbed, up for 6 awards and went away empty-handed), it was plain to see that he has loads of charisma, oozes SEX APPEAL from every pore, AND possesses all that incredible drive and musical artistry on stage-AWESOME! His blend of music is a bit of everything ranging from UK 2 step garage to R&B to soul to hip-hop to pop. Usually not a keen listener of the former, I was grabbed from the first by his catchy tunes, great vibes and his groovy moves.

With UK hit singles FILL ME IN and 7 DAYS under his belt, Craig David is now ready to be the NEXT BIG BRITISH INVASION since the Spice Girls to cross the Atlantic to America. Watch out! BORN TO DO IT is an excellent debut CD that possesses a good mixture of slow ballads and fast numbers to suit your palette. His songs about the trials/heartbreak of meeting/leaving girls (he's only 20!) are sure to touch a chord with his many potential listeners.

One outstanding track of the album is WALKING AWAY, which Craig croons so soulfully in his silky voice and sure to attract an enormous crowd of screaming female fans over there. This song has been enjoying an enormous amount of airplay here since its release (I even have the single with all its remixes) and is a huge favorite on the dedication program on the radio. Other noteworthy mentions: TIME TO PARTY, a fast track that will get you right into the party mood, RENDEZVOUS (Craig's personal favorite), YOU KNOW WHAT, LAST NIGHT, CAN'T BE MESSING AROUND and REWIND. In fact, the beat is so tight on this disc, you won't soon run out of songs to rave about. His musical idol/influence being R Kelly, Craig's songs are reminiscent of Kelly at times.

Do yourself a big favor, run don't walk to the stores now to get this CD before they run out of stocks! `Cause when the secret's out, there won't be many left on the shelves. Tired of all those everyday run-of-the-mill balladeers/rappers? Fret no more. Get two copies of the album, and your mate will love you for introducing him/her to such a fresh new voice in the R&B/rap/hip-hop genre. If you only get one CD this year, make it this, as it is truly a worthy buy. Listen to BORN TO DO IT and you will be singing along to the melodies in no time at all. Craig David is an amazing talent for someone so young; I can only imagine how big he's going to become when he eventually breaks into the US markets. By then, America would know what Asia and Europe had known all along-that Craig David is BORN TO DO IT, and proud of it. RECOMMENDED.

Born To Do It...No Doubt.......2004-03-18

When I first heard "Fill Me In", I ws hooked. I had to get Born To Do It. So, as soon as I got it, I instantly went through the tracks, and was not disappointed. I found this cd to be well worth the money I had paid for it. Craig David has crafted together a work of art with his first release, and continues his exellence with Slicker Than Your Average. Plus, his remixes are a wonderful compliment to his smash singles(Seven Days, Rendezvous, Key To My Heart, the countless Walking Away remixes). I thoroughly enjoyed and continue to enjoy his music. Here's hoping that Mr. David keeps doing what he's born to do and keep his listeners happy.

Craig David is the "Booty Man" !.......2002-03-12

I love this CD. I first heard Craig last summer when I listened to "Fill Me In". The video to this song was a bit too "young" for me so I kind of put Craig David aside for the moment. Over the Thanksgiving/Christmas holiday the radio stations were playing the remix of 7 days and then I was hooked. When I bought "Born To Do It" I thought too many songs were about having sex but then again - I said to myself - what else are young men his age thinking about. So I gave it another chance and I must say that Craig David is ALL THAT!

Being a House Music lover, I HAD to push repeat constantly on my CD player from the first moment I heard "Can't Be Messing 'Round". I must admit that it has been a while since a singer/performer has hit me hard like this - not since Prince (and Kenny Lattimore) have I been so excited and especially about any one CD. This CD is a MUST have.

I wish Craig David nothing but MUCH success over here in the states and continued success in his home country. If his future work is as tight as "Born To Do It", he will last for quite sometime! This CD is a MUST buy for folks who like to party, bounce, and groove. Even the slower tempo cuts (Once In A Lifetime, Follow Me, Walking Away) make your head bob.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this CD!

Craig you are INDEED the "Booty Man" !

Great CD, but not that different than the US version.......2001-11-28

This cd rocks. BUT the songs that are on this one, that are also on the US version sound exactly the same. The remixes are good and the US version does not have all of these remixes. This CD is also missing two songs that are on the US print.

Born To Do It? Most Definately!.......2001-10-20

I downloaded all of the songs from winmx about 5 months ago.
I wasnt sure if I would like it or not, but to my surprise I came to love it. I'm not much into R&B, but Craig David's album has definately given me a diferent outlook on it. The first track "Fill Me In" is one of the more popular, but only because the radio doesn't play the others. If You like R&B or not, I recomend that you by this album. He also mixed in the great sound of U.K. 2-step garage. BUY IT!!!!

Booty Mans Here.......2001-08-22

Well the booty man has been sent here to make you shake yo' booty And with this cd he definitely will. With vibin' music and catchy tunes you can't help but wiggle your booty. It's a cd worth checking out.
