Distracted works so well because it resembles a pop blowout at first, only to pull the shag rug out from under our feet.

Distracted works so well because it resembles a pop blowout at first, only to pull the shag rug out from under our feet.
Kurstin makes things smoother, shinier, and less weird than Fly Lo might — not necessarily a bad thing. Similarly, the caliber of Thundercat’s guest list feels upscaled.
He's still finding joy inside the pain, supplying the high notes with that ethereal contratenor and the low end with those sinuous basslines.
For his latest, Distracted, he strikes the middle point, embracing the P-funk pocket and synth-led psych-jazz in equal measure that feels unbalanced nonetheless.
This Thing We Call Love aims for groovy but ends up sounding like Kaytranada’s leftovers, while Great Americans is too kooky for its own good, but on the whole we have a vibrant, energetic album with generous helpings of soul, funk and technical skill.
Distracted feels like something rarer: a deeply human, painstakingly crafted album. Stephen Bruner has taken our collective exhaustion, our grief, and our hyper-connectivity, and transmuted them into a masterpiece of progressive R&B.
Thundercat surfaces with another wholeheartedly relatable and sonically mesmerizing LP. The artist’s fifth studio LP, Distracted, is an organically stunning and stubbornly present new chapter to Thundercat’s autobiographical discography, one that is both a poetic snapshot of the artist’s perspective and another refreshing take on Thundercat’s singular sound.
