British pop star Natasha Bedingfield is desperate for R+B singer Craig David to return to his musical roots - because she misses the U.K. garage music scene.
The 27-year-old singing sensation is a huge fan of the Born To Do It star, but wishes he would make music which echoes his British R+B beginnings.
And she wants to rope in her pop star sibling Daniel Bedingfield to work on David's new album - because he had a U.K. smash hit with garage-themed track Gotta Get Thru This in 2001.
She says, "I love Craig, but I really like his music when he was doing the U.K. garage thing back in the day.
"I was feeling sad thinking that the should had gone for good, but I've been hearing it back on the radio with the Bassline scene and I think he should use it again."
She adds, "I'd definitely get Dan on board, he's pretty good at that dance thing."...
