Background and composition

[edit | edit source]

About working with YEBBA, Ed Sheeran stated "I loved making [the] record. YEBBA is phenomenal, she's onto massive things".[2][3] "Best Part of Me" was announced as part of the tracklist for No.6 Collaborations Project (2019). Sheeran revealed the song's release date on 4 July 2019.[4] It was released alongside "BLOW" the next day.[5]

"Best Part of Me" is a romantic pop ballad.[6] According to Idolator's Mike Nied, the song is a romantic ballad which "builds up to a very loved-up chorus".[7] Spin's Rob Arcand wrote that it "slows things down", comparing it to Sheeran's solo acoustic rendition of the Justin Bieber collaboration "I Don't Care" (2019).[8]
