The best British male solo artist of 2021, Edward Christopher Sheeran, has finally met with melodic black metal vocalist Dani Filth and is working on new material.
According to Knotfest interview, Dani Filth's collaboration with the English singer-songwriter is in the works, and he's done some of it.
Dani said. "We still have yet to finish our song with Ed Sheeran. He's done some of it, but then he had a baby, and then he got obviously sidetracked with that and doing whatever Ed does, which is play massive shows around the globe.
"He added. "He's not at our beck and call. But he is gonna finish it, he assures me. Actually, I spoke to him quite recently."
In a new Instagram post, Sheeran and Dani are having dinner and are probably done refining their material, presumably for Cradle of Filth, since the pop star's fan base won't welcome an extreme metal collab.
Dani posted. "A little over a week ago, I was having lunch with the unlikely lads, having just done something fun."
Since the two have been emailing back and forth, their masterpiece is something that metal elitists might hate - it would be a hit or miss because pop and metal music have different audiences.
