In this review I will be reviewing an album which was released March 3rd 2017 (on my birthday) which is Ed's third studio album "Divide".

Ed Sheeran is a British pop artist who has been making great music over the last few years. He has released three studio albums such as "+", "X",  and his new one Divide. Ed's back after a 3 year break he is back with an interesting album which is another album that has done well in the market sales. The first two tracks on this album was released in January "Shape Of You". and "Castle On The Hill". This is where the repetitive track for "Shape Of You" began. When I heard these two tracks in January I just felt really pleased to see that he is back. I really love the track "Castle On The Hill". Its like I am driving on a road trip whilst listening to it. "Shape Of You is an alright track but I just dont like when its repetitive. My thoughts on this album was that I found the album really good despite "X". will always be my favourite album from Ed's. I found this album really different to the others. "X" was just more of a pop romantic songs. Whereas Divide has a mixture of songs with different meanings. Ed is one of those artists that is actually trying to save the Pop industry. Without Ed the Pop industry will be shitter and shitter. I have been a fan of Ed's music since the release of his debut album which had elements of folk and pop. Which in my opinion it should have been nominated for the mercury prize instead. I felt so shocked that "Divide" was nominated for a mercury as nobody expected for it to be nominated.

Moving on to my favourite tracks on the album which were "Castle On The Hill", "Perfect", "Galway Girl", and "What Do I Know". Starting off with the track "Castle On The Hill". As I was saying it feels like I am going on a road trip whilst listening to it. This track is really good. Definitely one of the strongest tracks on this album. Another one of my favourite tracks was a track called "Perfect". This track is simply outstanding. It sounds peaceful and quite emotional as well another strong track on this album. Moving on to "Galway Girl". This track just amazed me. This contains mixtures of Pop ,Irish folk, and Hip hop. The production of the track is amazing since it has elements of "Irish folk". I love the way how ed is rapping to an Irish folk production it is just woow. Lastly my last favourite track which is my favourite out of all of the tracks on this album which I personally think it is underrated "What Do I Know". I freaking love this track so much. I was so disappointed that Ed did not perform this in "Glastonbury". I really dont know why it is a fun track to sing to. I really love this track. There is no least favourite track on this album

Overall This is a good album I would defintley listen to it again. I will also review "X" around the end of october. Overall it is a 8/10
