No.6 Collaborations Project is a collaborative studio album by Ed Sheeran, released in July 2019 on Asylum/Atlantic Records. It is a concept album in the tradition of Sheeran's early career mixtape activity, featuring a different featured artist on every track including Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars, Eminem, Khalid, Cardi B, Travis Scott, and others. Sheeran co-wrote all material with his collaborators; the album's commercial strategy was built around the simultaneous release of multiple high-profile collaborations designed to generate multiple simultaneous chart entries, continuing the strategy of ÷. 'I Don't Care' (featuring Justin Bieber) and 'Beautiful People' (featuring Khalid) reached the top five on the Billboard Hot 100; the album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with 159,000 first-week units. No.6 Collaborations Project is regarded primarily as a commercial exercise rather than an artistic statement, as the collaboration format was designed to maximize commercial reach, but it demonstrated Sheeran's ability to adapt his vocal and writing style to radically different production environments.
