The Sun spoke with Craig David who says that his ‘Born To Do It’ debut sold more copies than offerings from his British rival Robbie Williams, mostly because he’s cracked America and Robbie hasn’t. “If you look at how many albums were sold, then ‘Born To Do It’ has sold more copies than any of Robbie’s albums,” Craig pointed out. “But when you look at Robbie as a person you’re like, ‘He’s The Man!’ And the reason he’s the man is because he came out of a massive boy group, Take That, he has a sensitive side, an arrogant side, a boy-next-door side, a footballer who everyone can relate to. He’s a cool guy with a persona but I’ve sold more records than him. I think his biggest is five million, something like that. His £80million deal is crazy.”
