The Telegraph

Kyann-Sian Williams of NME called 22 a "nostalgia-loving silky R&B revival record". She wrote that "heavily relying on the feel-good nature of classic '00s R&B, Craig David could have dangerously made a gimmicky throwback album. Yet, in a time when many UK R&B fans are crying out for great music and recognition, Craig David not only feeds that appetite but uses his platform to laud up some stars to watch too." Kate French-Morris, writing for The Telegraph, remarked that the album "isn't addled by trends, unlike its 2018 predecessor, which caught David toying with autotune and EDM drops A fresh generation of ears have given him a fairer hearing and comeback success. 22 is no Born to Do It, but it at least reminds us of that album's deserved prestige."

Chart performance

22 debuted at number seven on the UK Albums Chart. This marked David's sixth album to enter the top ten album. Elsewhere in the UK, the album also debuted and peaked at number one on the Independent Albums Chart, while also reaching number 2 on the UK Album Downloads, and number 4 on both the Physical Albums, and the Albums Sales Chart. 22 also debuted at number 25 on the Scottish Albums Chart.
