Mr. Hudson and Vic Mensa are no strangers to each other. The two have worked on together in the past, most recently on Vic's The Manuscript EP on "Almost There." Today, Vic returns the favor and lends his vocals to Mr Hudson for on "Coldplay."

Vic Mensa and Mr. Hudson connect for a song perfect for a cold and rainy day. Mr Hudson kicks off with his vocals over the stripped down production that's led without any percussion at first. The title is very fitting, it has a Coldplay inspired sound from earlier in their career, despite the fact both artists admit to their dislike for the group at separate points in the song. Vic Mensa later comes in with his own verse. He starts off on a more mellow tip but his tone gets more aggressive as he continues. It's a solid collab between both artists and hopefully, this is an indication of more music from Mr Hudson in the near future.

Quotable Lyrics
I left you in tears at the airport
Cryin' inside but I ain't make a sound
It's ironic not even TSA can save us now
She breakin' down, we breakin up, my lady luck
