Ed Sheeran has shared a heartfelt tribute to the late music entrepreneur and SBTV founder Jamal Edwards, following his death aged 31.
Edwards died on 20 February following a “sudden illness”. His death prompted a wave of tributes, from artists including AJ Tracey, Rita Ora and Idris Elba.
Sheeran was one of several major artists whose careers Edwards helped launch through SBTV, his online music platform. Writing on Instagram on Thursday (23 February), Sheeran shared an old picture of the two of them together, alongside the caption: “I haven’t posted anything coz I can’t find the words, I can’t reply coz I don’t know what to say. “Jamal is my brother.
His light shone so bright. He only used it to illuminate others and never asked for anything in return. A stars light shines for millions of years after they go, and his will continue to light up every dark moment, we are all witnessing his power. ”Rihanna Savage x Fenty showDavid Bowie's most iconic looks‘No hard feelings’: Joe Rogan on Neil Young, Joni Mitchell boycotting SpotifyJoe Rogan signs deal with SpotifySpotify to remove Neil Young's musicMadonna kicks off world tourEric Clapton likens receiving Covid vaccine to ‘mass formation hypnosis’Taylor Swift appears for surprise performance at Stonewall Inn bar in New York CityFashion legend Thierry Mugler diesDemi Lovato interviewThe Call - Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show official trailerKelly Clarkson ‘stuns’ fans by performing a cover of The Weeknd’s Take My BreathBritney Spears former stylist speaks outside courtCovid restrictions may be ‘substantially’ reduced next week, Javid saysAriana Grande cries as she performs in Mac Miller's hometownLord of the Rings cast reunite on ZoomThe “Lego House” singer-songwriter went.
