I agree, Ed Sheeran has a better flow. His rhymes are on point and hes got a catchy kind of old school on the bit flow. Devlin seems to kind of go of tangent after every couple of lines and has to redeem himself and get back on the beat. Devlin is still good but not as good as Ed Sheeran lets face it
