My hello.bb file is:

SRC_URI = "${ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu}/hello/hello-${2.7}.tar.gz"

inherit autotools gettext

I downloaded hello-2.7.tar.gz -> extracted -> ran md5sum against COPYING -> got md5 -> added that md5 to my hello.bb file.

Any ideas where I am doing wrong?

I think you need to add the md5 sum of source tarball as well, something like
SRC_URI[md5sum] = "b93435488942486c8d0ca22e8f768034"
