A: Some uploaders pitch-shift the song by 2% to avoid YouTube’s Content ID auto-detection. You can fix this in a DAW by adjusting the tempo back to 91 BPM.

Craig David’s music is owned primarily by Warner Music Group and his own label (signed to Universal in some territories). The original multi-track stems and the official instrumental are proprietary intellectual property. Legally, nobody can host the genuine instrumental for free download without paying royalties to the publisher (Warner Chappell Music).

A: No. If you upload a freestyle over the "7 Days" instrumental to Spotify or Apple Music, it will be taken down immediately, and your distributor (DistroKid, TuneCore) may ban you. You need a "license" or "master use rights" from Sony/Warner. Conclusion: The Quest for the Instrumental Searching for "craig+david+7+days+instrumental+free" is a nostalgic trip back to the golden era of UK Garage. While finding a pristine, official, zero-cost version is difficult due to copyright protections, it is not impossible for personal use .
