Idris Elba Wants to ‘Lean Away’ From Acting to Focus on Music: It Was an ‘Internal Struggle’
23.02.2022 - 20:21 / usmagazine.com
Shifting priorities. While Idris Elba is known for his successful film career, he’s equally passionate about his musical ambitions, even performing anticipated DJ sets at the likes of Coachella and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s royal wedding. Now, he’s planning to “lean away from acting work” to prioritize his musical pursuits.
“Some may think, ‘Well, it will be the death of your acting if your music’s s—t.’ I’ve dealt with the internal struggle of that over the years,” the Luther alum 49, told Vanity Fair in an interview published earlier this month. “So now I’m at peace and I’ve chosen: This is what I’m doing, and I’m going to do it. Some will love it and some will hate it.”
The England native further opened up about his musical journey through the years.
“The thing about making music is it’s a very consuming process,” he told the outlet. “It’s very difficult to shoot a movie and then go off into the studio or make a song. It’s like trying to build a soufflé while making a brick wall.”
Elba, who previously played a DJ in 2019’s Turn Up Charlie Netflix series, provided an energetic setlist for the May 2018 royal nuptials of the Suits alum, 40, and the Duke of Sussex, 37.
“A lot of tunes went off,” the Harder They Fall actor said, playing coy during a July 2019 appearance on BBC Radio 1Xtra. “Meghan sent me a playlist with some bare tunes on it. … There was some West Coast on it. That’s all I’m saying. I’m not gonna put their business out like that, that’s not fair. Ask Meghan and Harry.”
Elba — who performs under the moniker “Driis” — followed up his royal gig with an anticipated set at California’s Coachella music festival nearly one year later.

But sadly, despite baby Lili being born last June 4, the 95 year old monarch still hasn't had the opportunity to meet her yet given the couple now permanently reside in Montecito, California. It is believed that Princess Eugenie, 31, is the only royal to have made the trip across the pond to America.
