Idris Elba appears on GRM dailys legendary freestyle platform Daily Duppy. The multi-talented actor, DJ and rapper performed a freestyle for GRM to announce himself as the host of this years GRM rated awards.
Grm daily released a trailer last Wednesday showing the shadow of a man walking through the GRM offices to the freestyle set, with fans in the comments guessing who it could be. Names such as Dave, Bugzy Malone and Stormzy flooded the comments with only a few people correctly guessing the famed actor.
Idris Elba has been involved in music for well over 15 years, as a rapper and DJ, having co-produced and performed on the intro for Jay-Zs American gangster album in 2007. He has released projects and DJed at festivals such as Coachella, boardmasters and Elrow town. His daily duppy isn’t his first involvement with UK rap having dropped a remix to Skepta’s hit “Shutdown” in 2015 and appeared alongside Sean Paul, Steff London and Wiley on the smash hit “Boasy”.
The freestyle saw Idris flexing his muscles and accolades. Rapping about having Margot Robbie on speed dial, being in the Arsenal changing room after matches and his friendship with Anthony Joshua. Elba also shared that being James Bond isn’t part of his plan but that he will be making a Luther movie.
The freestyle was ultimately to announce that Idris Elba would be hosting this year GRM rated awards on the 18th of September alongside British model Jourdan Dunn.
