Ed sheeran seems like not an asshole, especially in proportion to his influence and presumably wealth.

His singing doesn't factor into it IMO.

    Him deciding to move to the US at this very time says otherwise.

    The UK is essentially just a client state of the US and is doing everything that the US is doing, just in a more comically incompetent manner. In fact the UK is worse in many ways, throwing anyone in jail who voices discontent with the genocide of the Palestinians.

    I don't know much about where he stands as a contribution to overall society, however... I have; and I mean this seriously... heard his terrible music

    We'll let you judge the amount of help you feel you'd need ;-)

    Ed Sheeran apparently holds the record for

    • longest climb to #1 (19 weeks)
    • longest top-100 chart time (33 weeks)
    • only artist to have multiple songs exceed 10 weeks at #1 (whither TSwift?)

    I can't say whether his music is good, but I can say it appears others like his tunes a lot, for sexy time or not.
