I Still Sing On Bits And Pieces.

I Wanted To Be On American Tv So Much. I Didn't Park Dj'ing; I Just Sort Of Ended Up Becoming More Of A Studio Guy. I Had A Bit More Money And I Could Buy Every Little Piece Of Equipment And Drum Machine That Had Just Come Out - I've Got Quite A Collection Now - And I Continued To Collect Music.

You Know, Film Is The Ultimate Goal In An Actor's Career. I Mean, I Still Love Tv. I Have My Feet Firmly Stamped In It. But My Opportunities Have Been Bigger And Better.

There's The Argument That You Can Relate To Someone Who's Completely Unrelatable. In The Way That A Director Shows You His Imagination On A Film, Then I Get To Show You My Imagination In A Big Dumb Character.

[sometimes] I Sit In Front Of My [gaming] Console With My Headphones On And I Play. I Love That. It's A Nice Form Of Escapism.

I'm Rebelling Against Being Handed A Career, Like, 'you're The Next This; You're The Next That.' I'm Not The Next Anything, I'm The First Me. I Can't Be Myself, I Can't Just Be Idris Elba. But That's Just The Nature Of The Business.
