He has already taken over on the other side of the pond, but over here in The States he has the perfect amount of clout. You feel like you have discovered a hidden perfect gem when you first hear his music, but at the same time pretty much every person in the us with good musical taste has been discovering the same gem.

Ed Sheeran's music is filled with thoughtful lyrics and melodies, and he is, above all, a true artist. He will be in our ears and inside our iPods for many years to come. I think Ed's record + is to 2012 what Adele's 21 was to last year. Make sure to pick it up when it hits stores on June 12th.

Ed was cool enough to give me a little superman lego after our interview, and I made a special craft for him so check out our awesome video!
