Edward Christopher Sheeran, MBE (born 17 February 1991) is an English singer-songwriter. In early 2011, Sheeran independently released the extended play, No. 5 Collaborations Project. After signing with Asylum Records, his debut album, + (pronounced "plus"), was released in September 2011. It topped the UK and Australian charts, reached number five in the US, and has since been certified eight-times platinum in the UK.
The album contains the single "The A Team", which earned him the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically. In 2012, Sheeran won the Brit Awards for Best British Male Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act. "The A Team" was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2013 Grammy Awards, where he performed the song with Elton John.
A HACKER who stole unreleased music from Ed Sheeran and Kanye West has been jailed. Adrian Kwiatkowski, 22, illegally accessed the cloud-based accounts of top music artists and their producers to create electronic copies of unfinished songs.
When the defendant's Apple Mac laptop was searched, 565 audio files were found from a series of well-known artists including Sheeran, West and rapper Lil Uzi Vert.
Police said Kwiatkowski, of Ipswich, Suffolk, made £131,000 after he confirmed he sold them under the alias Spirdark. Joanne Jakymec of the CPS said Kwiatkowski had "complete disregard for the musicians' creativity" and "selfishly stole their music to make money for himself by selling it on the dark web".
An investigation was launched in 2019 by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office following complaints from a number of management companies of several musicians.
