One of the greatest British singers and songwriters of all time Craig David returns this summer with a brand-new album “Commitment”.

“Commitment” marks Craig David’s ninth studio album, and it’s a clear win. Across 13 tracks, he channels pure joy and playful energy, pairing confident, feel-good moments with the kind of subtle vulnerability and finesse that’s defined his career – this is Craig David at his very best!

Kicking off with the bold UKG statement Wake Up, ‘Commitment’ is a celebration of British music in all its colours. From the deep house grooves of Leave The Light On, to the sun-soaked tropical pop of SOS, and the Afrowave warmth of its stunning title track. Craig David sprinkles in his trademark R&B riffs, ad-libs, and runs throughout, reminding fans exactly why his sound has endured. While there are nods to his legacy, this is an album rooted firmly in the now, blending the best of his past with a fresh, forward-thinking vision.

Much like his game-changing debut, “Commitment” is built purely from a love of music, creative freedom, and the thrill of exploration. There’s no attempt to chase trends or manufacture hits instead, Craig David taps into the same unfiltered curiosity and wide-eyed spirit that first sparked his songwriting journey.

“Commitment” is the sound of an artist with nothing to prove, yet everything to play for. “Commitment is everything to me now that Born To Do It was to me as a teen,” Craig shares. “I hope people listening feel that same magic all over again. Making music still turns me into that giggly, excited little kid — just with 25 years of experience behind me.”
