Disappearing from Great Britain and then the charts altogether, twice Grammy award winner and sweet music maker Craig David was amongst the most influential and successful British singer songwriters of the nineties. Famous for his meticulously manicured goatee and midweek love making, Craig was as recognised for his smooth vocals as he was his low riding, crotch grabbers and beanie. Today, the 31 year old bachelor is living it up in Miami. Throwing impromptu house parties to rally up pre-club energy amongst his mates, Craig has accidentally landed his own show on Kiss FM, entitled TS5, after his penthouse. Broadcasting the kind of classic house that Craig came up creating, his fresh approach to playing whatever was big then, now works so well. i-D got five on it with the buff ting ahead of the launch of his new album and found out what anthems still get him pumped.
