Idris Elba reveals Megan Thee Stallion collaboration and it’s the duet we didn’t know we needed in 2021
Idris Elba has collaborated with Megan The Stallion.
The 48-year-old actor, DJ and rapper has let slip that he’s teamed up with the US rap sensation and record producer Davido on an upcoming ‘banger’.
Speaking to MistaJam on CapitalFM‘s The All-New Capital Weekender show, he spilled: ‘I’m doing more music, Jam you know what it’s like, I’m trying to stay with it when we’re not gigging now.
‘So I’ve got some really cool music coming, been working with Franky Wah on a tune I’m looking forward to droppin’. I’ve got a bit of a banger, I don’t want to say too much but me, Megan Thee Stallion and Davido that’s coming. Shout out to the fanatics.’
The Luther star – who is no stranger to big name collaborations – has previously teamed up with the likes of grime star Wiley, Sean Paul and MC Kah-Lo on tracks.
Meanwhile, Idris previously revealed he would love to perform with pop megastar Taylor Swift.
The Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw actor starred alongside the Love Story hitmaker in 2019’s Cats and later said he’d love to join the Grammy-winner on stage in the future.
The London-born star said: ‘I’ve known Taylor a few years. People see the album sales, the awards. What they don’t see is the hard work.
‘She is an incredibly hard-working person, she isn’t resting on her achievements. To perform live with her would be fun and hopefully we can make that happen.’
Meanwhile, Idris previously had the chance to sit down with The Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney for a BBC special, and he leaped at the opportunity to delve into an iconic career.
He said at the time: ‘When I was asked if I wanted to speak to Paul McCartney, after I realised it wasn’t a joke, I immediately said yes … who wouldn’t?! I am a massive fan of Paul’s!
‘His work has inspired and driven me as a musician, and once I get through the shock of sharing the stage with him, I’m excited to talk about his music and craft. What an honour! Looking forward to sitting with you Paul.’
