The first time I heard of Mr Hudson was on Kanye West’s utterly fantastic “Paranoid” (this single needs to blow the f**k up, by the way). Since then I’ve discovered the real Mr. Hudson and his band, The Library. Mr. Hudson is signed onto Kanye’s G.O.O.D. music label as well as the UK’s Mercury Records, where he has had more success there. Mr Hudson & The Library made their debut with A Tale of Two Cities, which “uses acoustic guitar interspersed with classically informed piano, soulful, Motown-inspired backing vocals and bass guitar, steelpan, electric drums & unusual rhythm patterns to create an expansive sound.” The album saw mostly positive reviews and its singles received national airplay on Jo Whiley and Zane Lowe’s Radio 1 shows.
Earlier today, Mr Hudson confirmed his sophomore album, Straight No Chaser would be released on August 3rd. Later, the album’s single “Supernova” had its world exclusive play on Zane Lowes’ Radio 1 show. On this first single, Kanye West returns the favor and gets on the autotune and sings his verse before disappearing, not to be heard from again. Like you would believe that. Luckily, Kanye West comes back two-thirds of the way into the song and steals the show; something that he does oh so well.
Listen to the radio rip below oh and make sure you pump the volume up on this one, the audio quality leaves a lot to be desired, natch.

Great track, I hope his upcoming album will be as good as his debut but I very much doubt it. This track got me really excited though, too bad we have to wait another three months.
Eh. “Paranoid” is better. This song is actually slightly disappointing.
Thanks for the mp3. But like Carrie said, “Paranoid” is better.. but I’m going to check out Mr Hudson’s band!
The Library is something to check out.. DO IT!
I dont get how to download mp3s from pmatune :/ I know, I’m hopeless
Oh.. I didn’t see that it wasn’t available for download.
@Stefan, I use a plugin for Firefox but.. don’t think Luis wants me to name it if he doesn’t want you to download the mp3, sry
try going to http://elbo.ws and search for the tune on other blogs
