Ed Sheeran and The Game to collaborate for a new song

Ed Sheeran fans are in for another big surprise, because this time, the British singer/songwriter is back in collaboration with the rapper and actor, The Game after 2015. Game announced the much-surprising news at an intimate listening session at Chalice Studios in Hollywood on Thursday night.

The song will appear on the fourth album of the rapper called Born to Rap and is slated for a release on eOne later this winter. Other features include Meek Mill, 21 Savage, Anderson.Paak, Eric Bellinger — and one major collab that the Game insisted must remain confidential for the time being.

The Game said the two were collaborating in the studio while the Sheeran wrote a hook that revolves around that line.

“Welcome to the city of sin, living in the city of Angels, ’Sheeran sings on the track.  While the pairing of the two artistes seem one in a rare instance, the possibility of the duo making a new song together go way back in 2014 where they announced that they had recorded an entire album together, although just one song, Freakshow emerged in 2015.
