Ed Sheeran, Chance The Rapper, And PnB Rock Are Defenders Of Love On 'Cross Me'

Ed Sheeran's new assortment of joint songs, No. 6 Collaborations, will be out on July 12. One of the most rather anticipated tunes that will appear on the LP is his group effort with Chance The Rapper and PnB Rock, "Cross Me," that was teased earlier this week. It's out right now and it's a mad defense track for a lover, a warning that they aren't to be toyed with. Yet beneath the tough talk and gritted teeth, it's an adorable track about being whipped. Ah, young love.


"Cross Me" is gummy with a jelly center. Ed Sheeran and corporation sing with eyes made of horned hearts across a candied bassline about coming to the defense of their partners if they have to. PnB Rock kicks things off speedily with a breathless threat that the song is built around: "Just know in the event you cross her then you cross me." Sheeran and Chance The Rapper then come busting by way of the door with swords and nunchucks drawn, willing to vocalize about why it's the incorrect idea to even think of trying them. Sheeran handles half of the refrain with PnB Rock while Chance raps about his partner being a force to be reckoned with: "Pew, kung pow, hit your ass with a cross kick," he raps. She's been taking CrossFit.


"Cross Me" follows the release of the Justin Bieber-assisted "I Don't Care" that came out earlier this month. The anthem about social anxiety and love procured a crazy video treatment with adorably cringe green screen that makes it a chuckle-worthy watch. It's the only video that you'll find where a waffle cone has Justin Bieber's head plus a horse's legs.
