We already knew that Idris Elba was a man of many talents, and now the thespian/DJ/rapper/spokesman/fine specimen has added another skill to his resume -- singing. But this should come as no surprise, because if you copped his 2010 EP, High Class Problems Vol 1, then you heard him flexing his vocal chords on that project, and he's sung on some of his previously released hip-hop songs as well. But more people are taking notice now that the video for the 9th Wonder-produced track "Private Garden" has surfaced. Driis takes the viewer to Puerto Rico, and the island paradise is made even more attractive with him there. It's not all about Mr. Elba looking good, however, there's some female eye candy joining him with the two engaged in a very sexy scene involving body paint. His singing voice may be an acquired taste, but this video will have you pressing play a few times. For his acting, of course. Heh.
