GOOD Music’s Mr. Hudson has made a name for himself since he touched down on our shores, hitting the studio with Kanye West, Young Jeezy and Jay-Z. But that’s not why we picked the British rocker to be the subject of a fashion story in our October/November issue.
We tapped the London bloke because other than Don Draper (and Dwight Schrute, of course), no one rocks the suited up look as well as he does. It may seem a bit daunting, but you can easily pull of his refined, slimmed down suit style. Just read on below to learn how get Mr. Hudson’s look—you’ll have to master his despondently pensive facial expression on your own…

After appearing on both Kanye’s 808s & Heartbreak and Jay-Z’s The Blueprint 3, British singer/songwriter/producer Mr. Hudson is starting to make a real impression on American audiences.

Remember when we hipped you to the 10 best sunglasses for the summer? Yeah, well, it seems a couple of celeb’s peeped it as well, as we’ve been seeing a number of actors and musicians sporting the Ray-Ban Clubmaster’s.
And for good reason. The Clubmaster is classic, iconic model, and a great departure from the ever popular Ray-Ban aviators and classier than the multi-color, plastic frames that are more suitable when paired with boardshorts and can of Miller Highlife. That’s probably why Kanye’s newest signee Mr. Hudson (pictured above, middle), Twilight star Robert Pattinson (left), and Owen Wilson from the Black Kids (right) have taken a liking to the signature shades. The three celebs have recently been spotted sporting the Clubmaster’s, but who rocked it better? Cast your vote and find out where to cop these Ray Ban bangers below…

Just a year ago, no one knew who Mr. Hudson was. Then Kanye West took an interest in the London artist and gave him his big break with a feature and production credit on 808s & Heartbreak.
After lending a helping hand to other projects like Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3, Hudson is gearing up for the release of his solo debut, Straight No Chaser, out later this year on G.O.O.D. Music/Def Jam. When he stopped by the Complex office, we talked about everything from Auto-Tune backlash to how ‘Ye named his LV shoes.
