Ed Sheeran and J Balvin unite on new songs ‘Sigue’ and ‘Forever My Love’

Ed Sheeran and J Balvin have made for a somewhat unlikely combination, sharing two new collaborative singles.The first, ‘Sigue’ is a fiery party-starter that features both artists singing over an instrumental courtesy of superstar reggaeton producer (and frequent Balvin collaborator) Tainy. ‘Forever My Love’, on the other hand, is a much slower, acoustic-led ballad.

Sheeran sings in Spanish on both tracks, specifically learning the language for his contribution.‘Sigue’ arrives alongside a video that shows the pair partying in a luxe hotel, while ‘Forever My Love’ comes accompanied by a black-and-white clip where Sheeran and Balvin perform the track together in the studio.

I recognised his voice when he was on the phone so I just went up and said hi,” Sheeran recently explained.“We chatted so long we ended up having lunch and then afternoon tea.
