    Sheeran has delivered a solid commercial showcase of the power of contemporary pop music brands. It is a case of Superstars Assemble. A fan base shared is a fan base multiplied.

    Unsurprisingly, the end result sounds not unlike a Top 20 rundown or Spotify’s Hot Hits UK playlist. That should give you an idea of whether you’ll like it. ... Sheeran succeeds in pulling off his patent trick of simultaneously stunning you with the pitiless commercial efficiency of his writing while retaining a certain ordinary-bloke humanity.

    Overall, No 6 Collaborations Project is an eclectic mix of songs, some familiar, some forgotten after the first listen and some deeply impactful.

    In its herculean embrace of teamwork, it suffers uniformly from the same flaw that infects nearly every other recent one-off that embraces the F-word in its credits: There’s no real trading off, and never for a moment do you imagine any of these people were in the same room. With such an impressive friends list, you hope for at least the illusion of chemistry somewhere along the way, but it’s the ultimate Dropbox duets album.

    A few songs that good ain't enough to make up the residue. This album can't even be considered an 'upgrade' from Ed Sheeran's Divide. Rather,A few songs that good ain't enough to make up the residue. This album can't even be considered an 'upgrade' from Ed Sheeran's Divide. Rather, it's another low albeit his overproduction and adventurous effort. Many songs of it don't blend the collaborations properly, and Ed himself is being the guilty for many parts. Antisocial (a track from the album) is the worst one.… Full Review »

    This album is so bad that is just goes to show how untalented ed sheeran really is even with the help of his so called mates. There's not oneThis album is so bad that is just goes to show how untalented ed sheeran really is even with the help of his so called mates. There's not one good song on this album. All sound the same. All a pile of poop. This guys needs to do the world a favour and stop making music. He's already destroyed the music industry as it is. Terrible. No doubt his fellow gingers will love it though.… Full Review »
