Both artists experienced pivotal shifts in their careers, with Ellis founding the rap/metal band, I Am Trouble in 2016 and Roberts releasing his solo project "Vulnerable."
In 2024, their paths intersected as they joined forces to create Idol Kings, a rap metal sensation that pushes the boundaries of genre conventions. With Ellis's rap expertise and Roberts's versatile vocals, Idol Kings have quickly established themselves as visionary forces in the music scene, delivering electrifying performances and shaping the future of rap metal.
