Thundercat Announces New Album Distracted
"Thundercat is set to release his first album in six years. Distracted is out April 3 via Brainfeeder Records, and includes the single, "I Did This To Myself" with Lil Yachty, along with additional production from Kenny Beats, Flying Lotus, and the Lemon Twigs. The album also features "She Knows Too Much," a previously unheard collaboration with Thundercat's late friend Mac Miller, plus guest spots from A$AP Rocky, Tame Impala, Channel Tres, and Willow."
"Distracted continues the themes of grief explored in Thundercat's fourth album, It Is What It Is, which was partially written about the sudden loss of Miller. "I don't think the heartbreak ever stopped," the bassist and singer writes in a press release for Distracted. "If it ain't a girl, it's taxes. If it ain't taxes, it's World War III. If it ain't World War III, it's a new update to the phone.""
Thundercat returns with Distracted, his first full-length in six years, arriving April 3 via Brainfeeder Records. The album includes the single "I Did This To Myself" featuring Lil Yachty and additional production from Kenny Beats, Flying Lotus, and the Lemon Twigs. Distracted features a previously unheard collaboration with Mac Miller plus guest appearances from A$AP Rocky, Tame Impala, Channel Tres, and Willow. The project continues themes of grief explored on the prior album It Is What It Is and spans 15 tracks that move between introspective songs about loss and collaborative, genre-blending arrangements.
