Ed Sheeran releases clip filmed in Ukraine days before Russian invasion

British pop star Ed Sheeran has revealed that he filmed his latest music video in Kiev, Ukraine’s capital, just days before Russia invaded the country.

The singer-songwriter released the video for his track 2step, featuring rapper Lil Baby, on Friday morning on his official YouTube channel.

Before the song starts, a message written by the singer appears on the screen in black and white.

In it, the 31-year-old Grammy winner explains that he filmed the clip in Kiev before “the devastating acts of violence began.”

“It was the first time I visited the country and I felt very well received”, he said.

“Ukraine is a proud and resilient country and I am grateful that I had the chance to film my video there.

“I stand with Ukraine, and I will donate my copyright from the video streams on YouTube to the Humanitarian Appeal for Ukraine created by the Emergency Disaster Committee [grupo de instituições de caridade britânicas]”, added the singer.

The 2step track is on Sheeran’s latest album “=” (pronounced “equals”), which he released in 2021.
