Ed Sheeran may not care about things like records, but the “Castle on the Hill” singer has just broken another.

Sheeran released his newest album on July 12th — a set of collaborations with artists whom he admires. The album’s release has now helped Sheeran break yet another record by racking up 69 million streams a month on Spotify.

The 15 track album features Cardi B, Khalid, Justin Bieber, Camila Cabello, and Bruno Mars, among others.

“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. 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.”

Tune in; you’ll be happier if you do.
