Ed Sheeran announced he will leave Warner Music after 15 years.

Sheeran made the point in his statement to affirm that this “isn’t a ‘disgruntled artist leaves record label’ type situation”.

“We’ve built something amazing together and enjoyed such life-changing stuff happening to us,” said Sheeran of his partnership with Warner Music. “My life is hugely different now to what it was when I was a teenager, and I’ve been feeling in my gut for a long time that a lot of things in my professional life need to change. I am, underneath it all, a singer-songwriter who plays pub gigs. And I’ve sorta morphed into this pop star who plays stadiums over 15 years; it’s a super amazing thing to have happened but also a lot to get your head around.”

“I decided to leave Asylum/Warner last month,” continued Sheeran in the statement. “I leave the company with SO much love and gratitude for everything we have achieved together. This isn’t a ‘disgruntled artist leaves record label’ type situation. This is a boy who started as a teenager on the company with different priorities, to the father-of-two man who exists now, who feels like he needs a shift and change in the way he does things professionally. I love Ed Howard forever, I love Asylum forever, and the door is always open for the future. Thank you everyone across Warner worldwide who has worked on my projects over the last 15 years, it’s been an incredible journey. Excited to see where the next 15 years takes me.”
