In a new segment of the [_Late Late Show_ host’s](http://time.com/4768708/jlo-james-corden-leo-dicaprio/ "undefined") hit series, the [“Shape of You”](http://time.com/4653758/shape-of-you-ed-sheeran-video/ "undefined") crooner and Corden rode around while chatting it up and, of course, singing their British hearts out. During their ride together, Sheeran busted out some of his rapping chops to previous hit “Sing” — and a guitar, to slow things down and return to his acoustic roots. As ever, Corden managed to keep up the energy and go head-to-head with Sheeran in the singing category, all while driving around the streets of L.A. (The segment was filmed [back in February](http://www.nme.com/news/music/watch-ed-sheeran-and-james-corden-filming-carpool-karaoke-1978308 "undefined").)
