The EP compiles tracks of collaborations with grime artists such as Devlin, Wiley, P Money, Ghetts and JME.

Henry Yanney of Soul Culture gave the EP a positive review and it peaked at number 46 on the UK Albums Chart.

[1] These five EPs (You Need Me, Loose Change, Songs I Wrote with Amy, and Live at the Bedford, respectively) would later be collected and released in a full album, simply titled “5.” The EP is composed of "haunting" and "sensitive production" which "meshes the protagonist’s acoustic compositions with sombre, intense beats".

[2] The first track, "Lately," features rapper Devlin and, lyrically, discusses insomnia and stress deriving from their work as musicians.

[2] The dark mood is furthered with track "Little Lady", a re-recording of Sheeran's single "The A Team", which features three rap verses from Mikill Pane.

[2] Henry Yanney of Soul Culture gave the EP four out of five marks, calling Sheeran an "excellent storyteller" and finding "The folk-meets-indie-meets-poetry format seemingly encourages/forces the guests on board to produce more reflective, thoughtful lyricism than per usual".
