When Ed Sheeran announced that he wouldn't be working with One Direction on their new album because he was focusing on his own, we were a little bummed. After all, we've come to think of 1D and Ed as a team! Now, however, we're feeling nothing but excitement because the "Lego House" singer has confirmed that the songs for his new album are complete.
We're not quite sure how the singer was able to focus on his own music while simultaneously touring the world with Taylor Swift, but he did. Speaking with Billboard the singer revealed that he turned all his music in to his record company on Sunday.
But when can fans expect the album to release? "It's early next year," Sheeran spills. "It was going to be this year but I don't finish touring till October and then there's no time to get a plan together. I'm going to spend October, November, December planning and then just smash it out next year."
While we wish we didn't have to wait so long for the release, we're glad to hear that Ed's sophomore album is nearly done!
Are you excited to hear new music from Ed?
