Ed Sheeran is an American rapper famously known for his hit song The A-Team. He and Russ seem to share a lot lately in their careers as they have been spotted several times featuring each other in their music videos.

Ed measures 5 feet 8 inches in height and this makes him two inches taller than Russ. Although they are both below the average height for American males, judging by the CDC report mentioned earlier, Ed is only an inch shorter.

Owing to the fact that the difference in their height is not much, the duo sometimes appear to be of the same height as seen in the video of Russ’s song titled Are You Entertained, which features Ed Sheeran.
