Hooray! It’s new Ed Sheeran music day!

The Castle on the Hill singer is gearing up to release his new EP, and is dropping fans little musical crumbs along the way.

The EP, entitled No. 6 Collaborations Project, naturally follows his No. 5 Collaborations Project in which he featured Beyoncé and Andrea Bocelli.

“It was when I [worked with] Beyoncé and Andrea Bocelli, and I had them both on the “Perfect’” single, that I started a thing on my laptop, No.6 Collaborations,” he told Charlemagne Tha God in an interview. “And just throughout the year while I was on tour, any time I met anyone that I’d been a fan of, it was the first time I’d been able to be like, ‘Let’s get in the studio.” For me, this is a compilation album of artists that I am a fan of.”

Those artists include Justin Bieber, Chance the Rapper, Camila Cabello, and Cardi B, amongst others.

Sheeran has now released two more new tracks from the EP: “Blow”, featuring Bruno Mars and Chris Stapleton, and “Best Part of Me” with YEBBA.

“I loved making both records,” Sheeran said in a statement. “YEBBA is phenomenal, she’s onto massive things. Bruno, Chris and I had a lot of fun recording. Play them loud, tell your mates, enjoy.”
