In a recent podcast interview with English-songwriter George Ezra, Ed Sheeran announced that he's ditching his chart-topping pop sound for his next album.
To explain his decision Ed said, "The reason it’s not a pop album is people expect you to come and the next album they’re going to be like 'it has to be bigger than 'Shape of You' and it has to sell more than this,' but if I control it and go 'here’s a lo-fi record that I really f***ing love,' my fans are gonna be like 'Yay!', and the pop world are gonna be like 'oh well, maybe the next one.'"
Not to worry Sheerios, you will still be able to listen to pop Ed Sheeran at KIIS-FM with our iHeartRadio app or catch him on his Divide tour when it comes back to the states at the Rosebowl on August 18th.
