WTF? Idris Elba - R&B Singer??

Listen, I'll be the first to defend Idris Elba. His portrayal as Stringer Bell on The Wire was phenomenal and a major reason why that series is probably the greatest ever. He's even been introduced to white, non-HBO America through his recent arc as Charles Miner on The Office (and I guess, anyone who's seen Obsessed, which I'm guessing is "hardly anyone"). Apparently, Mr. Elba is also a musician and will be releasing an album as Driis. Besides not knowing how to pronounce that or understanding its significant, his foray into R&B starts with "Best That I Can." Hopefully he can do better...
