The popular music festival Coachella recently announced this year's lineup , and in addition to artists like Ariana Grande, Childish Gambino and Kacey Musgraves, attendees will get to see Idris Elba in his DJ element. His addition to the musical line up has left some fans super confused. However, this is not Elba’s first gig for he has been a musician for quite some time now. According to Bustle, the actor has been DJing for a long time and often tweets about it. In 2012, Elba tweeted about DJing with David Guetta and will.i.am. Howver, Twitterati couldn’t believe the line-up actually included Elba.
