In a video shared on social media, the players were asked about their favourite American celebrity and Kudus did not hesitate as he named rapper Lil Baby.
Meanwhile, Moroccan defender went for actor Denzel Washington while England-born Ghanaian youngster Gideon Kodua picked rapper and man of the moment, Kendrick Lamar.
West Ham United will play two friendly matches in the United States before returning to England, including a game against Crystal Palace.
Kudus enjoyed an outstanding first season with the Hammers in his debut Premier League campaign.
Kudus eyes good second year
The versatile midfielder is looking forward to a good season under new manager Julen Lopetegui, who he claims gives him the freedom to express himself on the pitch.
He told the club's official website:
“His [Lopetegui's] style is how I want to play, how I want to attack as a winger and there is a lot of freedom, which allows me to do that. That is the most important thing for me - that I’m allowed to play how I want to. He has different tactics and a different style, but we are all working together to push the Club to the level where we want it to be."
