Thundercat has announced his fifth studio album, his first in six years.
The follow-up to 2020's 'It Is What It Is' is titled 'Distracted' and will arrive on April 3 via Brainfeeder. It finds the two-time Grammy-winning musician teaming up with pop super-producer and new creative partner Greg Kurstin, known for his work with Adele, Paul McCartney, Sia, Beyoncé, Beck and more.
It also boasts co-production credits from Flying Lotus, Kenny Beats, and The Lemon Twigs, along with contributions from A$AP Rocky, WILLOW, Tame Impala, Channel Tres, and Lil Yachty, and a previously unreleased collaboration with the late Mac Miller.
