Not to mention, Taylor Swift just listed “How I Want Ya” as one of her favorite “new songs that will make your life more awesome.”
“It was crazy. It’s crazy she continues to go out of her way to support not not only musicians, but music as a whole,” Hudson told JJJ about being included on her list. “Also, just hearing she genuinely digs the song was very validating.”
JustJaredJr.com: You are busy working on your EP. How’s that going? When can we expect it?
Hudson Thames: It’s going really well. We actually just finished mastering it so it should be out on November 6.
JJJ: What’s your songwriting process like? Take us through a typical session!
HT: The two constant things are my songs always have to come from a real life experience, and usually start with me jamming on the piano. As far as writing with other people though, it’s always different. For example, I just got back from an ASCAP writing retreat in France where we wrote all of the songs in a 12th century castle in the middle of nowhere- settings always change.

Hudson Thames & Hailee Steinfeld – “How I Want Ya” Lyric Video
Alyson Stoner looks over at a super adorable couple in this exclusive clip from her upcoming film, The A-List.
The flick centers on Eric Schultz (Hudson Thames), who is the coolest student at Lake Odell High School. He has the looks, the girl, and the popularity. Even the school newspaper has turned into a gossip blog about his personal life.
His guidance counselor, Sylvia Martin (Elizabeth Bond), is just as in awe of him as everyone else is. Being a nerd back in her day, Sylvia has always wished she could have done the things that come so easily to Eric.
When she discovers he is missing one class to graduate, she makes a deal with him. If Eric completes a list of 5 things she always wanted to do in High School (like date the quarterback and be a cheerleader) she will fudge his transcript and allow him to graduate!
The A-List is out on iTunes and VOD on May 12th — check out the clip below!
