Renowned for her acting, Kate Hudson now steps into the music scene with the launch of her first official music video for “Talk About Love.” Hudson explores the thrill and destiny associated with chance meetings in the video, which Kimberly Stuckwisch directed and shot in Los Angeles.
Following its recent single release, which received praise from prominent publications like NME and Rolling Stone—the latter referring to the track as a “pop gem”—the video made its debut on MTV Live, mtvU, and the Paramount Times Square billboards.
Director Stuckwisch comments, “The concept of ‘Talk About Love’ delves into the ‘what ifs’ that cross our minds during brief, serendipitous encounters. The theme focuses on discovering happiness and love right where you are, rather than pursuing them elsewhere. Kate and I were keen on ensuring the video stayed loyal to the song’s lyrics, effectively conveying its significant message to cherish and enjoy the current moment and serving as a relevant reminder in our hectic lives.”
Kate Hudson, taking an independent route in production, collaborated with producer Johan Carlsson and Fujikawa to forge a sound that’s innovative yet recognizably comforting. Her longstanding passion for music, predating her acting career and famously embodied through her role as Penny Lane in the Oscar-winning film Almost Famous, guided her decision to release music only when the timing and tunes aligned perfectly.
A strong combination of dance rhythms and songwriting abilities support “Talk About Love,” which presents itself as a vibrant track that reveals a developing artist exploring themes of desire.
Anticipated to release an album within the year, Kate Hudson emerges as a multifaceted talent—a songwriter, singer, and icon—displaying a profound grasp of love’s complexities, the journey to find it, and the importance of connection.
“Talk About Love” marks just the beginning of her musical journey.
