Last year, Idris Elba made his feature-length directorial debut with Yardie, a Jamaican-set drama that he's now adding another dimension to with an accompanying mixtape. The 10-track offering features contributions from some of Elba's current favourites, including Chip, Toddla T, Cadenza and the legendary Newham Generals.

Ahead of the set's June 21 release, Newham Generals' contribution, "King Fox", has now been unveiled on DSPs and it couldn't be a more perfect representation of the pair. Cloaked in the same sort of eerie darkness that made "Spookfest" such a stone-cold classic, "King Fox" is a high energy banger that sees the two Generals, D Double E and Footsie, go toe-to-toe with bars about bullying the DJ into playing your tune
and fighting tooth and nail for every last bit of success.
