Songfacts®:

  • Ed Sheeran linked up with the Atlanta rapper Young Thug and London singer/rapper J Hus for this slice of hip-hop lite where the trio sing and rap about their feelings for a girl. While Sheeran declares that he has "waited most of my life for somethin' real," Thug spits that she "knocked me right off of my feet."
  • J Hus references Michael Jackson's hit "Billie Jean" in his verse.

    This is one in a million
    So I never ever treat you like Billie Jean
    Ain't nothin' like anything I ever really seen


    The lyrics of "Billie Jean" describe a girl who claims that Jackson is the father of her newborn son, but he denies her assertions. While the King of Pop proclaims "Billie Jean is not my lover," J Hus affirms he will not dismiss her like Jacko did.
  • Ed Sheeran, Young Thug and J Hus wrote the song with Fred Gibson. The English producer worked on 12 out of the 15 tracks on No. 6 Collaborations Project. His resumé also includes credits on UK hit singles by Rita Ora ("Let You Love Me"), Clean Bandit ("Solo") and Jax Jones (Breathe").
