Cash Anthony Hudson Is a Talented Artist & Musician - Facts about Slash's Son
Guns 'N Roses lead guitarist's second son, Cash Anthony Hudson, has proven that creativity runs in the family. The teenager is already making a name for himself as a multi-faceted artist without much of his father's input.
The young Hudson has already established a clothing brand and produces music, especially electronic hip-hop instrumentals. His graphic design is top-notch and seems to have gained him many fans. Although his ventures are still small, Cash seems adamant to be a success story.
Cash has a loving family. Despite his parents' divorce, he has remained close to both and spends time with them. He also regularly meets up with his brother, who is also a musician, and a drummer for a rock band. The brothers have different tastes in music, and their father tries not to intervene in the affairs.

Cash Anthony Hudson's Family Broke up When He Was a Child
Cash is the second-born son of Slash and Ferrar. He was born on June 23, 2004, and is about two years younger than his brother, London. Cash's birth occurred three years after his parent's wedding in October 2001.
He lived with his parents and brother in Los Angeles, and in luxury at the top of an expensive hill in Hollywood. The family had an even more famous neighbor, as British singer and songwriter Robbie Williams lived next door. Both Williams and Slash spent some of their childhood in Stoke, England.
Despite living a luxurious and seemingly comfortable life from the outside, Cash's parents have reportedly had problem-filled periods in their marriage. On one occasion in 2010, Slash even filed for divorce from Pella Ferrar before withdrawing his plea.
However, four years later, the couple went through a similar rough patch again, but no reconciliation came. Slash once again filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. The petition for legal separation came shortly after Ferrar had asked her husband to fix his problems.
The divorce settlement featured some mouth-watering financial demands and provisions. Slash proposed to pay $39,000 in monthly child support and for the kids to earn 1.8% of his income until 2036. However, he would forgo primary custody of the kids but share joint legal custody.
Furthermore, Ferrar was to get spousal support of $100,000 per month and a lump sum of $6,627,352 as a form of equalization payment for their assets. Ferrar would get to keep specific properties, including a house in Los Angeles and three top-of-the-range vehicles. In return, Slash would keep his companies and interest in Gun 'N Roses.
Cash Anthony Has Several Talents
Cash will turn 19 this year, but he is already making a mark in several areas, demonstrating his talents. So far, he has established a clothing brand, created music, and is also a digital artist.
His clothing line, Dead Society, sells a range of hoodies and t-shirts. The digital artist has excellent skills, and his impressive art is displayed on a specifically opened Instagram account. Custom pieces are sold for $100, while custom logos cost $50.
While appearing on the Jimmy Kimmel show, Slash talked about Cash, saying he is a fantastic artist and was also getting into NFT. Cash even got his father to open a crypto wallet so he could sell him an NFT. Cash, using the name CashMadeIt produces hip-hop instrumentals that can be sampled on SoundCloud.
Whereas Cash's musical interest lies in hip-hop and techno, his older brother, London, is more into rock music and plays the drums for his band, which means he has followed more closely in their father's footsteps. Still, his father says he tries not to get involved in London's music affairs.
Cash Anthony Has Loving Parents
Cash and London have been blessed with parents who adore them. During an interview with The Guardian, Slash was asked what or who is the greatest love of his life, and his answer was, "My kids."
Despite the rock star's busy lifestyle during his career, he still found time to spend with his kids, including picking them up from school. Slash, whose bandmates include Axl Rose, the inspiration to Fergie and Josh Duhamel's son's name, Axl Jack Duhamel, discussed that scenario, saying:
"I've got to be a bit careful what I wear to school. Last time I wore a Chrome Hearts baseball cap with [expletive] written on it, something I didn't realize until I'd left the school gates. Doh. So it's a plain black T-shirt and a plain baseball cap now."
Now grown up and doing his own things, Cash still gets to hang out with his father. In 2021, the pair spent some fun times together at the Disneyland adventure park in California. They were together on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and were accompanied by other unidentified people.
Nevertheless, Cash seems to spend much more time with his mother, who constantly shares pictures with her sons on her Instagram. September 2022 was a busy time for the mother-son combination as they visited many places together, including a plane ride to the Bahamas for a day trip.
On September 13, Ferrar shared a picture of herself with Cash with a sweet quote from Agatha Christie that read, "A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity. It dares everything and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path."
On September 19, the trio went to watch a football match. Other snaps from their adventures showed them enjoying some drinks during a night out in late September. The post was captioned, "Happy National Sons Day to the best and only two sons I was gifted by God with! I love every single part of you. I love you both with all my heart."
