Craig David is back with the new single “Commitment,” featuring Nigerian vocal queen Tiwa Savage. The track, which blends Craig’s irresistible smooth R&B sound with Tiwa’s soulful Afro-fusion delivery, arrives alongside a vibrant music video directed by MFB.
In the clip, set against warm, natural backdrops, the collaborators exchange stories of commitment, even in times of struggle. Stylish yet welcoming, both artists shine subtly, making the video as engaging as the song.
Produced by Mike Brainchild, the track has a mellow yet rhythmic vibe: a soothing blend of classic R&B and subtle Afrobeats percussion that creates a harmonious, emotionally charged rhythm. David’s vocals are heartfelt and savory as he sings about loyalty, vulnerability, and staying present in his relationship. Tiwa connects with a dreamy verse laced with her signature sensuality and lyrical attitude. Tiwa has been making major moves globally, and this soulful and seamless pairing brings together two generations and two continents, pushing the boundaries of R&B and Afro-influenced music.
“Commitment” follows David’s fan-favorite “SOS,” building anticipation for his upcoming studio album. With over two decades in the game, David’s fusion of nostalgia with next-wave sounds continues to make him a mainstay in R&B.
David recently wrapped his sold-out UK “Commitment Tour,” a 25th anniversary celebration of his game-changing debut album, Born To Do It. The tour hit major arenas across the UK, reaffirming his place as one of the UK’s most influential R&B voices.
Expect more melodious tracks from David’s forthcoming LP.
