Thundercat gets distracted—Mac Miller and Tame Impala tag along for the ride

Thundercat returns after a six-year recording hiatus with his forthcoming album, Distracted—offering a carefully curated guest list that includes the late Mac Miller, A$AP Rocky, WILLOW, Tame Impala, and Channel Tres.

Far from a solitary project, the album hints at a mosaic of sonic deviations, where Thundercat’s signature eccentricity rubs up against collaborators with divergent sonic agendas. The presence of Miller alone adds a posthumous ache to the mix.
