Craig David Releases Video for New Single ‘I Know You’
Craig David has released a visual for his latest track “I Know You,” which features British indie band Bastille.
Directed by Alex Southam, the video finds David at a basement party where he takes shots, sings karaoke and just enjoys moments with his friends.
“But we’re all stumbling through the night / It doesn’t matter, we’re all together / And there’s paradise in our minds / Falling together, arms ’round each other / I know you, know me too,” David sings on the EDM-inspired tune.
“I Know You” is lifted from David’s seventh studio album, The Time Is Now, which is set to release on January 26. The project will feature guest appearances from Ella Mai, GoldLink, AJ Tracey and JP Cooper.

Emerging singer DeCarlo has dropped a visual for his new single “Mind Up.”
The Josh Sikkema-directed visual opens with DeCarlo swallowing a white pill before he finds himself in deep thought and torn between multiple women he’s interested in. “I gotta make a move / I gotta make my mind up,” he sings.
“Mind Up” is the first offering from DeCarlo’s forthcoming EP, which is expected to drop later this year.
DeCarlo has been pursuing music since 2014. He has collaborated with rapper Romer Miller, rapper Ace B and model/rapper Don Benjamin.
Jessie J brings her empowering single “Queen” to life in her latest video. Directed by Marc Klasfeld, the simplistic video celebrates diversity, self-love and the natural beauty of women.
“This video is to celebrate ALL WOMEN,” Jessie J tweeted. “Women of all race, shape and size. I love being a woman. I love uplifting women. I love the power and beauty all women have. In a time where the world creates trends within beauty and tells us the ever changing definition of ‘perfect.'”
She continued, “THANK YOU to all the QUEENS in this video that helped me create a timeless piece of art that young girls can watch growing up and all women can watch all over the world and feel loved.”
“Queen” is lifted from Jessie J’s forthcoming album, R.O.S.E., which will be released in four parts. “The songs on R.O.S.E. are simply me singing my diary in a melody,” Jessie said. “I am so grateful and happy that anyone who has been waiting for this record in full will finally have it.”
R.O.S.E. stands for Realisations, Obsessions, Sex and Empowerment. The first installment will release on May 22, with the other three installments dropping on May 23-25.

Jessie Reyez makes a powerful statement in her “Body Count” video, which was directed by Peter Huang.
Speaking on the clip, Reyez said, “The video is inspired by the Salem witch trials; a bookmark in history for one of the many times women were persecuted. Sometimes for allegations of magic but often for low key sexual promiscuity or sexual selectiveness.”
She continued, “In short, you’re going to get judged anyway, so as long as you’re not hurting anyone and loving yourself, might as well do whatever you want. Whether that’s being celibate or being sexually free is your choice. Your body count is nobody’s business but your own.”
Reyez is scheduled to perform at the Bonnaroo Music Festival on June 9. She will hit other festivals this summer including BergenFest, Common Ground Festival and Lollapalooza. Reyez is will also join Halsey’s tour as a special guest on July 11.
