"We are cellphones at this point, basically. That's what life feels like. It's a weird one we're living through right now, to say the least. You have to try to stay inspired, to keep moving forward. But like, you're processing absolute hell and war in the background, and you're still supposed to look cute."
"After [Miller's] death, there were a lot of questions, a lot of stones left unturned. But this song came to be from the simplicity of making music between friends. It's a language, a snapshot. It was a beautiful moment between us."
Thundercat's fifth album, 'Distracted,' showcases his musical talent and features collaborations with artists like ASAP Rocky and Tame Impala. The album addresses themes of grief and introspection, particularly in tracks like 'What Is Left to Say' and 'I Wish I Didn't Waste Your Time.' A notable moment is the tribute to his late friend Mac Miller in 'She Knows Too Much.' Thundercat emphasizes the importance of staying inspired despite the overwhelming negativity in the world, using music as a means of connection and expression.
