Six years to the date of his last LP, Thundercat will release his fifth studio album, Distracted, coming out via Brainfeeder!

The new album features contributions from A$AP Rocky, WILLOW, Tame Impala, Channel Tres, and a previously unreleased collaboration with the dearly departed Mac Miller. Distracted was primarily created in close collaboration with a new creative partner for Thundercat – the superproducer Greg Kurstin, known for his work with some of the biggest names in pop like Adele, Paul McCartney, Sia, Beyonc, Beck and more – with additional production turns on the record from Flying Lotus, Kenny Beats (Kenneth Blume), and The Lemon Twigs.

Falling somewhere between Drunks frenzied look at modern life and It Is What It Iss solemn heartbreak, Distracted is Thundercat finding a comfortable space for himself in the current era. Rather than condemn the current moment, the album sifts through it, addressing the ways distraction can be both a hindrance and a form of healing.
