Craig David is one of the UK music scene’s most successful male solo exports. During his ten-year career he has sold over 13 million albums, enjoyed 13 Top Ten hits and achieved multi-platinum status in more than 20 countries, even appearing on the cover of NME. He also continues to sell out venues worldwide and at home, including a solid four nights at Wembley Arena. A winner of two MTV Europe Awards, three Ivor Novello Awards and four MOBO Awards, he has also been nominated for twelve BRIT Awards and two Grammys. His debut album, ‘Born To Do It’, recently came second in a poll by MTV to find the Greatest Album Ever, beaten only by Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’. Craig has also recorded with Kano, Sting and Tinchy Stryder, and features on Jay Sean’s new album. Craig was recently awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Music from Southampton Solent University for his contribution to the industry. His arrival on the scene came through ‘Re-Rewind’, a track that saw the dawn of a new age in British music, and that is now synonymous with the arrival of The UK Garage movement, back in 1999. Now based between London and the creative melting pot of Miami, Craig is still one of the most talented and enduring R&B acts on the planet, with four studio albums to his name so far and a fifth on the way.
Craig David – U Gon Hate Me
Craig David – U Gon Hate Me Lyrics:
You should know that I got more growing to do
You should know it’s all on me, it’s not about you
What you need is just a lil’ more than I can give
Not tryna be selfish but I can’t help what it is
Girl, you gonna hate me
Thought I was ready to settle down
You gonna hate me
Now I think I need a time out
You gonna hate me
The fact that I left
You gonna hate
I really wasn’t trying to make you hate me
You gonna hate me, yeah
You should know
Every time I said I love you, girl, I really meant it
And you should know
I got a little problem with the word commitment
I’mma do me
But I know I need to change, I’mma better myself
‘Cause I would hate to see you with someone else
Girl, you gonna hate me
Thought I was ready to settle down
You gonna hate me
Now I think I need a time out
You gonna hate me
The fact that I left
You gonna hate
I really wasn’t trying to make you hate me
You gonna hate me, yeah
They say if it’s meant to be then girl, you’ll be right back next to me
Girl, I hate to set you free
It’s really killing part of me, me, yeah
They say if it’s meant to be then girl, you’ll be right back next to me
Girl, I hate to set you free
It’s really killing part of me, yeah
Girl, you gonna hate me
Thought I was ready to settle down
You gonna hate me
Now I think I need a time out
You gonna hate me
The fact that I left
You gonna hate
I really wasn’t trying to make you hate me
You gonna hate me, yeah.
