Beats by Ed? Not quite, but Ed Sheeran has landed a starring role in the latest Beats By Dre commercial. Though his paycheck was probably far south of the $3 billion Apple just paid for Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine’s company, at least the one-minute ad will boost Ed’s bottom line thanks to the soundtrack courtesy of his X tune, “Don’t.”
Watch The Trailer For Ed’s “Nine Days And Nights” MTV Documentary.
The spot for the Solo 2 line opens with Ed storming into his hotel room, obviously pissed about something, channeling that rage into a song thanks to the Beats music service and his bright red headphones. The Sentence he creates says it all: In a hotel room, pissed off, writing a song, [with] a 90s hip-hop beat.
A drink, a flashback of a girl taking her shirt off and a laptop later, he’s got a finished tune.
