About Beautiful People (feat. Khalid)

"Beautiful People" is a song by English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran featuring American singer Khalid. Atlantic Records released it on 28 June 2019, as the third single from his fourth studio album No.6 Collaborations Project (2019). It reached number one on the UK Singles Chart in July 2019, becoming the second single from the album to reach the summit of the chart.

According to Rolling Stone's Althea Legaspi, "Beautiful People" is about "remaining true to yourself and not trying to become one of those so-called 'beautiful people' obsessed with material things and stature", and has a composition of "pretty vocal harmonies, [...] a winsome melody and handclap-enhanced rhythms".[4] Idolator's Mike Nied wrote that the song sees the singers "address fears of losing sight of themselves in an image-obsessed crowd".
