Ed Sheeran pays homage to Jamal Edwards with new video: 'He lives on forever'
The 31 year old singer-songwriter said he “hit up” Jamal for music video ideas after deciding to collaborate with rapper Russ, “knowing that he would create something incredible”.
Sharing the video to his new track Are You Entertained on Instagram on Friday 22 July, Ed penned a lengthy, heartfelt tribute to Jamal. The new dad-of-two went on: “We were meant to shoot in February, but the day before Russ flew out, Jamal tragically died. Our whole world was upside down, and I had to cancel and just tell Russ it wasn’t happening, but he was so so understanding, to a level I'll never forget. Jamals mum @brendaedwardsglobal and sister @Tanisha.
Brenda shared a statement on her social media pages last month to share her sadness as she confirmed Jamal's cause of death.
