The ‘2Step’ video by Ed Sheeran and Lil Baby is dedicated to Ukraine. Sheeran says, “Ukraine is a proud and resilient country, and I’m thrilled to have had the opportunity to film my video there.”
A new remix of Ed Sheeran’s “2step” includes a Lil Baby appearance as well as financial assistance for Ukraine. The music video for the tune, which was shot in the war-torn country before Russia’s invasion, was published on Thursday by the British musician.
In the video, the singer can be seen performing in the streets of Kyiv while wearing a gray hoodie and black coat. The single’s earnings and proceeds will go to DEC’s Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
Sheeran said in a statement, “I filmed the video for ‘2step’ in the city of Kyiv, Ukraine, before the horrific acts of violence began to take place.” “It was my first visit to the country, and everyone from the production staff to the many people I met during my days off made me feel very welcome.”
“Ukraine is a proud and resilient country, and I’m thrilled to have had the opportunity to film my video there,” Sheeran continues. “I support Ukraine.”
For a long time, Sheeran had teased his collaboration with Lil Baby. Sheeran stated on Instagram, “Been a big admirer of @lilbaby for a while now, very delighted to have him on the remix of this song and video.” “It’s an honor, and I hope everyone has a good time on April 22nd. There will be a few more surprises after that.”
Sheeran previously collaborated with J Balvin on two singles — “Sigue” and “Forever My Love” — and with Camila Cabello on “Bam Bam.” Late last year, Sheeran released his album =, which included songs like “The Joker and the Queen,” “Collide,” and “Shivers.”
After teaming with Nicki Minaj on “Bussin” and “Do We Have a Problem?” Lil Baby recently released the singles “Right On” and “In a Minute.”
