Hip Hop’s most revered master storyteller and record producer Slick Rick, plus award-winning musician, actor and filmmaker Idris Elba just dropped their new collab track, “Badman Generation”. Directed by Meji Alabi and recorded at Idris Elba’s 7WALLACE Studios in London, the track marks the first official collaboration between the two UK-born visionaries.
"Badman Generation’ is style, strength, and storytelling — rooted in the brotherhood between Idris and I infused with the grit and glory of South London - brought to life under the marque of Electric Avenue - home sweet home," said Slick Rick.
"My generation of creation was born out of originality,” said Idris Elba. “This is actually who we are and what we experienced in life, our influences were us”.
The track is a new bonus from Slick Rick’s visual album VICTORY, which you can watch on YouTube, along with “Badman Generation” below.
