Thundercat is probably the only person in the world to have played in both Suicidal Tendencies and Yo Gabba Gabba!, and it’s that kind of duality that makes his fifth album Distracted such a wild ride. Constant stylistic shifts between high and low energy take us through musings on overstimulation and how lame the hi tech future turned out to be, from frenetic drums and molten bass licks to picturesque piano and lax lounge. The 80s styled high production pining of ‘ThunderWave’ brings a classic yearning duet feel with WILLOW, while the long awaited collab with Mac Miller finally drops on the funk inflected ‘She Knows Too Much’.
