intro

Undemanding hip hop from new British group Mr Hudson and the Library, outclassed by its impressive B sides

Mr Hudson is apparently a white singjay. Whereas the press pack that accompanies this CD tries to entangle us into make believing that Mr Hudson's attitude to hip-hop is something positively new, the title track plus the following track, 'Brave the Cold' introduce only a few surprises but wait; what turns the concept upside down is the third track, 'Everything Happens to Me'. and the fourth track, a remix of 'Bread and Roses'. They are B-Side tracks of a very different nature. The true treat on this EP is DJ Wonder's mix of the lead track. DJ Wonder has stretched the beats - slow they already were, and he has churned out this subdued pumper of a hip-pop tune.
