Mr Hudson's World


Every now and then an artist springs up out of nowhere and just dazzles & rockets to the top faster than Beyonce can change her weave. You can call Kanye West many things, but he is undeniably a musical wizard and credit goes to him for introducing a relative newcomer to a wider audience who goes by the name of Mr Hudson. This cat may not have the greatest voice in the world, but he has what many artists need more of, namely, raw honesty and a passion beyond the superficial. Mr Hudson reminds me of Chris Martin (Coldplay) & Rob Thomas (Matchbox 20, but he has a street/hustler mentality about him as well which sets him apart. I put together my "best of" playlist of Mr Hudson's work. For me, the standout track is "There Will Be Tears" which highlights a man's vulnerability & sense of loss which so many of us (men) try to camouflage, foolishly. We all gotta cry sometimes.
