My GAitch, Ed Sheeran

Aitch, Ed Sheeran – My G

One of the most talked-about young rappers in contemporary UK music, Aitch was born in 1999 and hails from Manchester.

He’s an artist with the skills to handle everything from serious topics to lighthearted storytelling with ease, but his 2022 release “My G,” featuring none other than Ed Sheeran, is deeply personal.

“G” refers to Aitch’s younger sister, and the song beautifully portrays his warm, protective feelings as a brother, embracing the public’s lack of understanding that can arise because she has Down syndrome with great love.

Along with the story that his sister is a big Ed Sheeran fan and a heartwarming music video that’s sure to lift your spirits, it’s a wonderful track that even those who don’t usually listen to hip-hop should definitely check out.
