Trust Me (Craig David album)

Trust Me is the fourth studio album by the English singer Craig David. It was released on 12 November 2007 in the United Kingdom before being issued in several other countries. Seeking to capture the immediacy of his live performances, David recorded much of the album in Havana, Cuba, adopting a raw, performance-driven approach encouraged by producer Martin Terefe. Emphasizing authenticity over technical perfection, the recording process resulted in a more organic sound characterized by soulful horn arrangements and subtle Latin influences inspired by Cuban music. In addition to Terefe, David collaborated extensively with producer Fraser T. Smith throughout the album's production.

The album received mixed reviews from critics, with several reviewers praising the album's musical diversity, mature sound, and Terefe's production, while others criticized its inconsistent style, derivative elements, and clichéd lyrics. Commercially, the album performed modestly compared to David's earlier releases, peaking at number 18 on the UK Albums Chart and achieving limited international success, although it was certified Gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). Three singles were released in promotion of the album, including lead single "Hot Stuff (Let's Dance)," which samples David Bowie's "Let's Dance" and became a top ten hit in Finland, Denmark, Sweden and the United Kingdom.
