Background

Since then, I've always wanted to do another, so I started No.6 on my laptop when I was on tour last year. I'm a huge fan of all the artists I've collaborated with and it's been a lot of fun to make."[6]
Sheeran released the album's track list on 23 May 2019, but the names of all the featured artists on the unreleased tracks were redacted.[7][8] The track list includes 15 tracks, a departure from his previous three studio albums, which each consisted of 12 tracks.[9][10] The track list including all guest appearances was revealed on 18 June 2019.[11]

No.6 Collaborations Project received mixed reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews and ratings from selected mainstream critics, the album received an average of 57, based on 14 reviews, indicating ''mixed or average reviews".[25]
In a positive review, Alexis Petridis of The Guardian wrote: "Unsurprisingly, the end result sounds not unlike a Top 20 rundown or Spotify's Hot Hits UK playlist. That should give you an idea of whether you'll like it. [...] Sheeran succeeds in pulling off his patent trick of simultaneously stunning you with the pitiless commercial efficiency of his writing while retaining a certain ordinary-bloke humanity."[26] Similarly, Neil McCormick of The Daily Telegraph says, "Sheeran has delivered a solid commercial showcase of the power of contemporary pop music brands. It is a case of Superstars Assemble. A fan base shared is a fan base multiplied."[31]
Nick Levine of NME concluded that "It's less an album, more a collection of savvy and generally savvy collaborations which blurs traditional genre boundaries unselfconsciously and acknowledges that Latin-pop is the sound of the near-future. Most of the time, it's a credit to Sheeran's songwriting skills and well-honed persona."[28] Helen Brown of The Independent said of the album: "Though his fare is bland, it is sincere and hygienically prepared. No thrills, but all affable, affordable, family-friendly fills."[27] Writing for Pitchfork, Rawiya Kameir opined that "few releases have been as baldly transparent and destined for ubiquity as No.6, which has all the conspicuous mining of a Drake album, but very little of the finesse or cultural fluency".[29]
