Mr. Hudson: Straight No Chaser | Hypebeast

Ben Hudson has quickly emerged as the one of the brightest newcomers within the American music scene. Having already experienced success with his band Mr. Hudson and The Library, the British musician’s fame rose to new heights this year with his introduction into Kanye West’s G.O.O.D. music label, a collaboration on the track Supernova, and an appearance on Jay-Z’s “Forever Young” from the recent #1 album, The Blueprint 3. Preparing for the launch of his debut solo album, Straight No Chaser, we caught up with Mr. Hudson in New York City. As humble and down to earth as anyone we’ve had the pleasure of meeting, Ben gave us a bit of insight into his new found celebrity status and taste for all things American.
