Idris Elba shares new single and speaks out to ban ‘zombie knives’ and machetes

Idris Elba has shared a new single, demanding the UK government to take more concrete action to ban ‘zombie knives’ and machetes.The new track, titled ‘Knives Down’, sees the actor put pressure on politicians in the UK to crack down on the number of knife-related crimes across the country, in a bid to reduce the number of young people losing their lives.Speaking with the BBC, he also accused politicians of not giving the issue “the focus it deserves”.Zombie knives are defined as weapons having “a cutting edge, a serrated edge and images or words suggesting they are used for violence”. They were added to a list of prohibited offensive weapons in 2016, but criticism still followed, as the sale of the knives still exists online.Featuring DB Maz and produced by Fraser T Smith and FaNaTiX, ‘Knives Down’ features hard-hitting lyrics which urge Parliament to take urgent action, more so than ever before.“My guy, you don’t look fly with the samurai and its blood dirty/ Eyes cry in the neighbourhood when the blood spills when they die early,” read the opening lyrics.
