The Craig David comeback is officially here, and he keeps bringing the fire. The UK garage don (check out our recent quickfire Q&A with him) famously freestyled over ‘Where Are Ü Now’, also dropping into Kurupt FM’s stint on 1Xtra’s #SixtyMinutesLive where grime’s agony uncle Big Narstie was chilling.
