James Blunt was crowned the King of Twitter earlier today after the way in which he chose to announce his new album.

The 42-year-old singer is known for his sarcastic tweets, so his most recent tweet unsurprisingly attracted a lot of attention from both fans and non-fans alike.

His post read simply: 'If you thought 2016 was bad - I'm releasing an album in 2017'.

His tweet attracted a landslide of 87,000 likes in just 14 hours.

No other information has been released about James' album, so we'll just have to wait for the next sarcastic tweet.

Although the 'You're Beautiful' singer doesn't tend to tweet often, when he does they are one HUNDRED PERCENT worth reading if you love a bit of dry humour in your life. Here are some of the best tweets from James over the last year:
