Imagine the results of the combined influences of a youth spent listening to Hip Hop and R&B while being witness to the emergence of the UK's vibrant new garage scene. At only 19 years of age multi talented Craig is the cream of a new breed of artist emerging.

Hailing from Southampton, Craig spent most of his younger days with his notebook and pen in hand, scribbling his lyrics while laying down melodies on his Dictaphone.
