Ed Sheeran ft Lil Baby '2step' by Henry Scholfield

Rob Ulitski - 25th Apr 2022

Henry Scholfield directs a hypnotic, VFX-heavy extravaganza for Ed Sheeran featuring Lil Baby. 

The video for 2step shows Sheeran walking down an empty street in Kyiv, as the surrounding characters and environment start to vanish into thin air. This eventually builds to a sensational dance set-piece, and a mind-bending trip through warped cityscapes and slick choreography - which Sheeran enthusiastically dives into himself too, together with co-star Lil Baby. 

The project opens with a title card with a message from Ed Sheeran explaining that the video was shot in Kyiv before the Russian invasion of Ukraine two months ago, and that profits from the video streaming are going directly to DEC's Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal.
