In his new album, “-,” Ed Sheeran is capturing the crests of fear, melancholy, and anxiety. The album, which is pronounced “Subtract,” is the last in a series of ten albums with numeral album titles. It comes on May 5.
Sheeran says he spent the last ten years working on hundreds of songs for “the perfect acoustic album” in a statement on the upcoming album, the fifth in his career.
But, a string of extremely challenging circumstances in the beginning of 2022 forced him to alter his course. “For the first time, I’m not aiming to make an album that people will like, “He claims. “I’m simply publishing something that accurately reflects where I am in my adult life.

He also had to deal with the passing of his best friend, Jamal, and a lawsuit alleging that his 2017 hit, “Shape of You,” violated someone else’s copyright.
