Summary

Today’s Top Tune: Thundercat ‘I Did This To Myself’ (Feat. Lil Yachty)

Six years to the date of his last LP, Thundercat returns with his fifth studio album Distracted, arriving April 3. The record features an eclectic lineup of collaborators including A$AP Rocky, WILLOW, Tame Impala, Channel Tres, and a previously unreleased track with the late Mac Miller. Today we share the song “I Did This To Myself” featuring Lil Yachty, with additional production from longtime collaborator Flying Lotus. Blending introspection with cosmic funk, Distracted explores the tension between modern overstimulation and the search for clarity in a hyperconnected world.
