In the absence of 9 days for the official premiere of his first music video, he showed us this emotional storm which led to To subtract, his latest recording project. A very catchy midtempo which is an ode to pop and which is marked by this yellow which will be the star of the final cover of this pentalogy of disc.
An album that goes back to the roots of the artist, and that was born out of personal pain and hope, as we told you a few days ago, a few minutes after the British official announced it on their networks. A work that presents one of the biggest stars in the world at his most vulnerable and honest moment after going through one of the most turbulent times of his life.
There will be 14 songs that will be part of this new studio album (18 in the deluxe edition), the seventh of his career, and which will take over from his previous four digital works: (Plus, 2011), x (Multiply, 2014), ÷ (Divide, 2017) y = (Equal, 2021).
“I’ve been working on Subtract for a decade, trying to sculpt the perfect acoustic album, writing and recording hundreds of songs with a clear vision of what I thought it should be. Then, in early 2022, a series of events changed my life, my mental health and even the way I look at music and art. Writing songs is my therapy. It helps me make sense of my feelings. I wrote without thinking about what the songs should be, I just wrote what I felt like it popped into my head, and just a week ago, I replaced decades of work with my deepest, darkest thoughts. In less than a month, my pregnant wife was diagnosed with a tumor with no treatment possible until she gave birth, my best friend Jamal, a brother to me, died suddenly, and I found myself defending the integrity of my songwriting career in court. I was in a spiral of fear, of depression and anxiety. I felt like I was he saw drowning, head below the surface, out of breath but unable to find air. As an artist, I didn’t feel like I could get my work out into the world without really feeling what it represents where I am and how I need to express myself at this point in my life. . This album is completely that. It’s opening the trap to my soul for the first time. I’m not trying to make an album that people might like. I try to post something that is honest and truthful about where I am in my adult life. This is my final journal entry for February and my way of making sense of it all. This is Subtract” explained Ed Sheeran about the conception of his new album.
