Mr. Hudson本名Ben Hudson, 毕业自牛津大学、主修英国文学。Mr Hudson是催生英伦新锐流行乐团Mr Hudson & The Library的灵魂人物﹔2007年出了好评如潮的专辑 《Tales of Two Cities》之后，被美国Hip Hop天王Kanye West发掘并签约，现在已然成为Kanye West重点培养的门徒。“他是一位可以一鸣惊人的艺人”Kanye去年接受欧洲MTV电视台采访时说，“我相信他有超越我的潜力，他有可能成为他这个年 代最重要的音乐家之一。”是的，很快他就帮助Kanye West在《808s & Heartbreak》
专辑创作了两首歌，不仅献声，而且教Kanye怎么唱歌。去年年底他的个人第二张专辑《Straight No Chaser》上市，第一波单曲《Supernova》唱遍了大街小巷，也迅速攻占欧美各大音乐榜单的宝座。而今年年初在Jay –Z的《Blue Print 3》中也出现了Mr. Hudson的身影，一首《Young Forever》 MV的热播，让更多的人记住了这位金发的英国大帅哥。
此外，Mr Hudson也是时尚中人，因为其讲究的穿着品味，这两年开始成为欧美各种音乐时尚杂志的常客，包括GQ，Vogue，Complex等等。在去年的时候他还帮Kanye West X Louis Vuitton的春夏系列设计了一双叫做“Mr Hudson”的低帮鞋。另外他还跟贝克汉姆，Snoop Dogg，Noel Gallagher， N-Dubz等一众明星们一起出现在Adidas Original新一辑广告《星球大战》之中。

Merging an unusual combination of genres, Mr. Hudson (aka Ben Hudson on vocals and guitar) applied his love for Chet Baker and Cole Porter to his skills in hip-hop production. To play his songs live, he formed the Library, comprised of Maps Huxley (bass), Wilkie Wilkinson (drums), Joy Joseph (steel drums, vocals), and Torville Jones (piano). The first result, an EP entitled Bread & Roses, came out via Deal Real in October 2006. The group toured with Amy Winehouse in early 2007 in support of its debut album, A Tale of Two Cities, released through Deal Real/Mercury. A slate of festival appearances followed during the summer, but Hudson's biggest act of promotion came courtesy of rapper Kanye West, who signed him to his G.O.O.D. Music label and featured Hudson's production and vocals on 2008's number one album, 808s & Heartbreak. Mr. Hudson's second album, Straight No Chaser, appeared in August 2009, ably assisted by a single (&Supernova&) featuring West.
