The 'Can't Say No' singer and 'A Team' star have been exchanging messages on Twitter this week.
Ed Sheeran has told Conor Maynard he is "smashing it" at the minute with his debut solo material.
The 'Lego House' star urged the 19 year-old singer-songwriter to "keep it up", after Conor admitted he was getting tired from his hectic work schedule.
"Soo tired! I feel like I'm on Autopilot… if my autopilot was broken," Conor tweeted on Tuesday night (8th May).
"@ConorMaynard keep it up man, you're smashing it, rest up sometimes but keep working hard and making people happy," Ed later replied to the 'Can't Say No' singer.
"@edsheeran ahhh thank you man! Means a lot, goes without saying for you! Keep doing your thing, the music's incredible, YOU GOT THIS! hahaa," Conor then posted back to the 'A Team' star.
Since emerging earlier this year with his debut single 'Can't Say No' Conor has been working with several big names, including The Neptunes' Pharrell Williams, who described the Brighton-born singer as someone who will "change the future of pop music".
Last month Conor released a music video for his downloadable track 'Drowning' after announcing that his debut album 'Contrast' will officially launch on 30th July.
