Nothing strange if we take into account the meaning of To subtractwhich will be his fifth and final studio album in the mathematical signs saga.
A new conceptual work that showed the artist from his origins to the present day, showing his versatility in different genres such as pop, rock, rap and which seems to result in a much more acoustic work than we could l ‘imagine.
Ed Sheeran opened his future agenda wide on the Armchair Expert podcast on Spotify. The Englishman was interviewed in this podcast by Dax Shepard confirming what had been an open secret: there would be a 2022 pentalogy shutdown. recording and in 2023 we are still waiting for this new LP

Everything indicates that it will be in 2023 that his first saga will finally draw the curtain (he has already confirmed that there will be another trilogy) by releasing an album every 3 years. Indeed, he has already confirmed that he will be on tour until 2024 to present his new album within his The math tour.

These seem to be the most relevant data and for which there is no confirmed data at this time.

And that a few weeks ago images were revealed of a 2023 calendar-diary which was theoretically sent by the England team to some of their core fans.
You can see how the Brit would have included some of the lyrics of what would be his next songs, including one called Diary (hence the subject itself).
