    I think Craig David considered himself to be an international R&B star and started singing about himself to the extent that it irritated people so they decided to make the parody the most non international regional British character with the most ferocious Yorkshire accent imaginable(although I believe he comes from Southampton) to bring him down to earth.The British like people who are self deprecating and dislike people who are full of themselves,hence the bo selecta parody.

      Yet no one forgot Craig David. They constantly played his first songs on the radio and TV every year since. I think Craig D himself kind of stopped his own career and the change in the music genre. Especially since garage music was phasing out slowly. Now was good time to come back because we are older and reminiscing garage.

    Anyone who thinks this affected his career is stupid. All musical celebs get mocked all the time yet they go on to keep making more music. It's just Craig David has such a fragile ego that he couldn't take a joke and let it affect his music.

      Honestly all the salty, unfunny and boring Craig david fans can fucking do one. If one ‘childish’ twat in a rubber mask can completely dismantle an otherwise ‘popping’ and ‘promising’ career in one fell sweep, then fuck knows what he’d actually do in the face of real and genuine criticisms. Jesus, he barely even looks, sounds or acts anything close to like what Craig David was, warts and all. The entire premise of the sketches of all the characters is that it’s a caricature of what he vividly imagines their personalities to be like in the most surreal possibilities. Craig needs to find a different career path, if being famous and having the piss taken out of you is too much, fuck knows there’s plenty of other people that can sing from Monday all the way to Sunday.

    Given the relentlessness with which 'Bo Selecta' pursued Craig David, as well as the 2001 'Brit Awards snub', apparently Craig David really upset some people within the British entertainment industry establishment. There is a real sense of mean-spirited disdain lurking behind this, evident at 4:44. It might be quite revealing to explore the origins of 'Bo Selecta'.

      Interesting. Watching this 20 years on I see this completely differently now. It was relentless, the show and its makers milked 3 seasons. It would never be palatable TV now. Likewise the saturation of point-and-laugh at people auditions from early pop star competitions. That overt meanness. Also great name. Bretton Woods. Bretton Woods 3.0 is unfolding right now in 2022

      He upset everyone everywhere with his beta male whining he put forth as "singing". It was incredibly annoying. You have to realise, in those days there was no UA-cam. Streaming music on the internet wasn't a thing. It was all about the radio and TV. And this Craig David tw@t was everywhere. In every shop when you went in just to buy toilet paper. On the radio when you turned it on in the morning. On the box when you were winding down in the evening. So everyone was really, really happy with this comedy skit. It touched a chord with common people.

      The simple fact of the matter is that Craig David became a millionaire overnight, then his second album flopped and people made fun of him for being “overexposed”. Theres not some grand conspiracy to bring a guy who was selling millions and everywhere on the radio down a peg. Which is kind of scary to see a bunch of black brits engage in this weird conspiracy bollocks only anti-vax americans who see “Goldberg” everywhere tend to do
      Leigh Francis was an underground character actor and comedian who became friends with Davina McCall and wanted to do a sketch show taking advantages of the rise of tabloids in order to satirize the phenomena. Craig David guested on the show itself for god sake
