flop
They are saying he's scamming his way to the top #1 in the UK... 20k signed CDs sold in the first week, but only 2k downloads 😭
#26 isn't too bad
Ed Sheeran used to be a #1 or #2 type of guy.
You don't know Ed if you think the debut is what matters to him. He's always got slow burners that stick around forever.

yup but look at his latest album, it did 118K first week so this isn't too surprising
site got the craziest hate boner for ed lmao
It is entirely rational. He is a straight white man who does exactly what genuinely great (often female) popstars are accused of and derided for doing: producing shallow, lowest-common-denominator, hit-chasing chumbucket pop.
And yet not only is he not subject to the same derision, he’s held up as some f***ing indie auteur.
Regardless of whether it’s him, his label, the radio, or the public, his music and what it represents in the industry sucks balls.

promise you no one looks at ed as an indie auteur. no one.
he gets hated on pretty regularly for making surface level pop music.
he's damn near a relic from the 2010s who still can make music that charts while not necessarily being relevant.

who holds him up as an indie auteur
i don’t even think they did much promo for this song
i heard it on the radio once or twice but that’s it
ed sheeran might be the least offensive person alive imagine feeling that strongly about him

Wrote a fanfic and called it canon
He played in front over 200k in Melbourne from just two dates just a few weeks ago, he’ll be fine.
KTT needs to learn and understand that pop artists don’t care about debut numbers. Everything is about the long game in pop
