'Jamal was a tastemaker':

Edwards gave Sheeran his first break on in 2010, getting him to perform the future single You Need Me, I Don't Need You on his YouTube channel."A lot of people assume that [because] I write songs and I perform, I probably would" have become famous anyway, Sheeran said.

"So we're just going to try and do our best to continue exactly what he's done," she added. "Nobody can do what Jamal did, but I'm going to give it a good try." As his fortune grew, he expanded into other entrepreneurial ventures, often with a focus on improving the lives of disadvantaged young people; and shared his experiences in the best-selling book Self Belief: How to Be a Success on Your Own Terms.

The event featured a star-studded auction which had a host of "money-can't-buy experiences" including a meal-for-two with Luther star Idris Elba, and a David Beckham-signed Inter Miami t-shirt.Crews, who is best known for the sitcom Brooklyn Nine-Nine, said he had first met Edwards on a promotional trip to London in 2014.

"We had all these visions and all these plans... And man, when I found out that he passed, I couldn't believe it."
