Most wouldn’t expect Ed Sheeran to get as much as love from the rap community as he does but the man is a fan of bars. We’ve seen him collaborate alongside artists like Eminem and The Game in the past but could we potentially see Big Ed and Papoose team up on a record before the Brooklyn rapper hangs up the mic?

Ed Sheeran appears to be a huge fan of Papoose’s wordplay, as seen in a new video the Brooklyn rapper posted on his Instagram. Pap and Sheeran linked up at the Knicks game last night when the UK singer seemed near starstruck to meet the “Thought I Was Gonna Stop” MC.
“First discovered Papoose’s music and I got a bit starstruck when I just met him. It’s an absolute pleasure,” said Sheeran. “I appreciate your wordplay. It’s fantastic and phenomenal. It’s an absolute pleasure to meet you.”
While Papoose basked in the praise, Ed Sheeran asserted that “everyone knows you got fantastic wordplay.”
“Honored to find out @teddysphotos is a fan/supporter of my music. He’s extremely talented. But was still humble enough to approach me. And show his appreciation, for what I do. Much respect,” Papoose captioned the post.
