      Body shaming hurts far more people than the intended target, who it often doesn’t even hurt cause he won’t even see it. Do better.

        I think the joke is that he is bad at playing guitar. Because he only know how to use the first three frets

        The joke has nothing to do with Ed’s body. The image is a joke referring to the fact that all of Ed’s songs use cowboy chords played on the first three frets. Therefore, he doesn’t need additional frets. Get it yet?

        So it is in fact you that needs to

        Do better.

          behold a chud on dbzerozero. d’yknow i saw someone reply to you, and predicted (because predictable’s all you ever are) that you’d come back with more self obsessed abuse because there’s genuinely nothing else under there. groveling self congratulation and sickly praise of scum maybe but that’s just variations on a theme. i don’t await your response i’ve already read it.

            genuinely, what else could it be? short neck joke? does he even have a short neck? nirvana guitar joke would be 2 frets bigger in the 90s (and 2 strings missing probably)

              I think people are reading this as a small penis joke. That’s what I assumed before I saw the fret explanation.

    Ed’s demonstrated that money matters more to him than people’s lives. He doesn’t want to pick a side but he has, the side of money, or so he thinks… But being despised in the music industry relegates you to the grifter circuit.

        Yeah the thing is that other artists who do give a shit will stop working with him, because the music scene itself is social and a lot of them don’t want to be disliked by other artists. You end up with it splitting into the grift circuit and the real cultural circuit.

            The Heist is a killer album, that song aside, I haven’t listen to too much of his more recent stuff, the Hind’s Hall and Hind’s Hall 2 get played quite often. I’m waiting for him to team up with Lowkey for a song given Palestine is pretty important to him too.

    Did Ed Sheeran actually have any say in this? The thing I read said “the stakeholders” made this decision.

    That being said, I’m not a fan of Sheeran’s silence.

      Sheeran is one of the wealthiest and most popular musicians in the world. He has the leverage to say “I’m not performing without him, eat dicks,” and he might have his shows cancelled but he’d be fine.

      And more than likely that wouldn’t happen anyway. Those venues wouldn’t want to refund hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of tickets. He’s a big enough name and financially secure enough that the venues need him more than he needs them.
