Song of the Year Nomination ED SHEERAN Grammy Awards FOLK HIP-HOP Singer Songwriter

You always hear artists say, "It was just an honor to be nominated," and half the time you are thinking, "Right. We know you wanted to win." Where Ed Sheeran is concerned though, we think the UK Singer Songwriter sensation has already won. Nominated for Song of the Year with his now famous "The A Team," which is still on the charts after 30 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 sitting in the number 23 spot, Ed Sheeran is a testament to the success an artist can experience with hard work and perseverance.

It wasn't long ago, the massively talented
folk hip hop singer songwriter was sleeping on couches. Said Ed, "I have slept on a different sofa every night for two and a half years…But the sofa thing can get lonely. I'm ready for my own place now; I'm ready for the next level." Welcome to the next level, Ed where non-conformity wins. Read More...

When One Direction's Niall Horan took a photo of himself and posted it with the customized Sharpie that was made just for his band, a new frenzy was born! "The Sharpie promotion came about as the result of the Sharpie brand team’s gift sent earlier this year to the band to welcome them to their Chicago July concert.  Niall posted a picture of himself with one of the markers to One Direction’s 7 million Facebook fans.  The resulting Facebook and Twitter explosion caught the brand’s attention, and the rest is history."
