Not my thing, but not as much “not my thing” as I expected
The album had this weird hazy psych feeling, sort of the same feeling you get listening to Flower Boy by Tyler the Creator. It is bright, yet there's something kind of uneasy going on in the background. 4/5 (could go higher in the future)
I know Thundercat is an exceptional bass player and musician but I didn’t care for this. Every song felt like he was half serious and half joking around.
Super smooth funk with some fabulous tunes, most obviously Them Changes, sustained by a lovely sense of mischievousness. Perhaps inevitably with 23 tracks, not everything hits, but it’s an album to make you smile.
Really nice discovery, I like this loads.
Fun, loose, funky mix of Stevie Wonder, Funkadelic and some Yacht rock
Not for me
My reaction to seeing this was my album of the day: YOOOOOOOOOOOO HAHAHHAHAHAHA Dude what a pleasant fuckin surprise that this list goes up to albums this recent!!! I absolutely loved this album in college when it came out. Thundercat is an absolute master of his craft. His bass playing is mind melting and his range is incredible. Like tell me how he can go from contributing to one of the greatest albums ever in TPAB to fuckin meowing and singing about he wishes he was cat. Thundercat I love you and wow I’m so excited that this list has relatively recent albums! Now that I know this though, if TPAB or Blonde aren’t on here ima be pissed.
Excellent album cover. No notes. This is a modern jazz fever dream if I've ever heard one. This is absolutely not for background listening. Don't put this on at a party or while filing your taxes. Nothing about this makes sense. Absolutely nothing. The tracks flow from one to the next, and within each one is a series of "tasty"(?) chords that change so rapidly it's nigh impossible to keep up. There's also a clear lo-fi influence, present on most tracks but especially on Jethro and Drunk but really it's present in every track. Interesting time signatures are thrown into the mix (Blackkk) to keep you on your toes and prevent any foot-tappery. I guess Captain Stupido is technically the first main track ("Beat your meat, go to sleep") but at 101 seconds long there's little room to breathe. Uh Uh is a great bebop-inspired instrumental, reminiscent of standards like Donna Lee and Contusion. The bass remains the most impressive instrument here, though the piano, drums, and vocals are all strong in their own right. A Fan's Mail (Tron Song Suite II) is a song about wanting to be a cat, and I get it, I really do. But I take my music very seriously, and lyrically, this ain't up to my standards. Walk On By stands out for its heavy use of 8-bit noises and for featuring Kendrick Lamar (yet outshining most of his solo music). The following song, Tokyo, definitely outshines it, since it's essentially the same but without an unnecessary rap interlude. The most convincing track is also Thundercat's biggest hit, Them Changes, which is very different from the rock/blues title of the same name but still pretty darn great. The worst track is an easy pick, too. It's Drink Dat. A pretty standard, forgettable track, but made infinitely worse by Wiz Khalifa's forced-hip rapping style. I liked every single other track, though, and there are 23 in total. So a solid showing. Even the interludes have something jazzy to add to the mix. 4/5 Key tracks: Uh Uh, Them Changes, Inferno
I can hear why it's great, it's just not for me.
lmao
Vi a este tipo por primera vez en el documental de «Yatch Rock». Y no sé si va en serio, si es un homenaje, si es una copia de esos grupos. La verdad es que suena muy bien. Tengo que volver a escucharlo en algún momento porque me ha gustado lo que oía, pero sin llegar a apreciarlo. Es una cosa a medio camino entre Jamiroquai y Stevie Wonder.
I was listening and it sort of just finished? Nothing crazy about it really
2017. Thundercat putting out an R&B Album with his bass. Many silly tracks and can drag at times but it does have good baselines.
Crazy lyrics very experimental but honestly good beats
Never heard of this artist, nor this musical style. Enjoyed it very much. Reminded me a bit of frank ocean which I also discovered off this list
Total fucking fuck kack. Or Comedy? 23 Songs????? Never. Time for some Death Metal! Entombed will reset my brain.
some highs and lows
Very nice
Funky
I sincerely hope that if I ever enter the music industry that I will make music with this much flair, humor, irreverence, snark, and style
Smooth, funky, jazzy. Too bedtalky for higher score.
Not my jam
Some of these songs are incredible and some of these songs I'm not high enough for
I already know this artist and album! It's okay at best. Thundercat is a great bassist who intentionally holds himself back with some weird ideas in this album. Some songs are minute long non-sequitors; with the album printed on multiple small discs. I like his later stuff more.
interesting
Interesting album. Some really crazy experimental things and some serious music with a lot of influences from a ton of genres. Whoever this dude is he knows his music. I might not have loved the album but I can't tale away I was impressed with the music and his artistic freedom which he uses to the max. Really cool and different
Some of the songs seem a little bit half-baked. There are some really good tracks though and I like the funk of it all. 6/10
I’ve no idea what to make of this. Feels like it straddles the line between genuine and prank. There’s ridiculous lyrics but also some pretty good beats and music. Filled to the brim with online speak and memes. I kinda liked it despite my bafflement. 3/5
I've liked this album since it came out. Hard to believe it's been 8 years. I had never been so interested in bass guitar before finding Thundercat. What a weirdo. I love it.
Sometimes I feel like this list is some kind of art project to make people listen to the most worthless music.
I’m not sure what the usage frequency data looks like for “vibe” but I’d probably put its peak at around 2022. That’s five years after this record landed, which feels about right: it seems to take about that long for the last – and also the most total, transformative? – of all the nuances of a paradigm shift to settle in. “Drunk” feels nothing short of that. The bass work is absolutely astonishing (“Uh Uh”, “Inferno” are properly face melting) and the production throughout is tiiiiiight (some of it quite reminiscent of early FlyLo too; the best FlyLo). I hear plenty in here that’ll get picked up and run with by less bizzaro neo soul and funk artists too (artists far less likely to meow like a cat through the chorus of their songs, perhaps for the better but that’s just my opinion). Some serious chops on display from all contributors, but an especial mention to Dennis Hamm’s work on the piano and keyboard – the interplay between the keys and that bass feels Mingus-esque at times. There may be no finer -esque to acquire in music than that. That all those “vibes” might be the hangover from Thundercat’s Drunk might seem like the silly thinking of a vibe-addled Millennial, but I can’t think of a better place to look for provenance – when you’re inside this record, you’re never anywhere else than absolutely everywhere. And that’s a vibe.
Started off ok, but just too much of it. Could have been a very high 3, but now I'm on the verge of only awarding a 2. It just goes on too long. Sorry, yes it will be a 2.
23 tracks with very little difference. Just heinous jazz-based bollocks.
It was nice to hear a black man sing nicely and not talk about treating women like meat. It was a shame it was a load of rubbish. I don't mind a bit of gibberish, but mixed with some tedious soul vibe, it was too bland with little variation over the album. The quirkiness was in a similar vein to Fiona Apple, maybe Americans just can't pull it off convincingly. As for making cat noises, he's hardly Robert Smith.... stick to Hardcore Thrash.
Groovy and fun
I didn't love it, but this felt like a much more intimate look at a songwriter's process than most albums. I'm also a cat dad, I loved A Fan's Mail (Tron Suite Song II). I feel like this deserves the 4 stars.
This is another rare instance of an album from an artist I’ve seen live! Super fun music. I’m teetering between 4 and 5 stars because the end of the album drags on a tiny bit, but this is great representation from the 2010s from a list that is otherwise lacking during that newer era.
I like this album for blending so many genres together to create a really unique sound. It's got elements of soul, funk, rock, hip hop, jazz and more. It's also quirky and nerdy and overall very chill. Some good features here too. Overall it was nice revisiting this album even if its not a favorite of mine. Favorite track: Them Changes 3.5/5
Groovy funky - kinds felt like he wrote random musings and is musically talented enough to make a song that doesn't sound shite.
Just meh... it's not bad, and I might play it again one day. we'll see.
4.5 stars. Bass-playing virtuoso creates a wonderful genre-melding journey: funk, jazz, R&B, soft-rock, soul but carries consistent theme and story the whole way. Great balance of not repeating the same track over and over but keeping consistent groove throughout. Head-bobbing. Featured artists fit in well, with the exception of Wiz Khalifa though even his contribution wasn't totally out of place. Ending tracks really beautiful, bring in some orchestral/string sounds and slow things down. Standout the ultra-catchy bassline "Them Changes". "Jethro" is also really good, synth-heavy take on R&B.
Really interesting, a fascinating and often great voice, good instrumentation. And yet...trying to squeeze 23 songs into 52 minutes means that they're all really just ideas of songs or sketches. Work them up! Take time on 12 of them! I mean, who'm I to tell Thundercat what to do here, but it does strike me as a bit unfinished.
What is this. A couple of tolerable songs, but a whole lot of dross to go along with it
Wonderfully weird, offbeat amusing and skewily humorous. Michael McDonald sounds right at home here (and fully deserves the intro shout), which speaks to both the timeliness and timeless aspects of this record. There's a similarly intriguing tension between the darkness of the lyrics and the lightness of the delivery – one likes a little ebulience mixed in with his despair (musically speaking). The density of creative ideas makes this a memorable listen overall, and not just a pleasurable one, though it's certainly that. Like a fun bender with a strange friend best taken in doses, though there's no doubt his heart is in the right place and sense of the groovy super well-honed.
It’s ok
If adderall was a person, and that person was trying to frantically clean the house because they just got a text from their crush saying that they were in the neighborhood and that they were going to pop by, then a lot of these songs would be a good soundtrack for that vibe. The rest of the songs are just straight funky.
A bit repetitive with the jazz fusion but it's great stuff
This album seems most like a work tape of song ideas. It's a collection of fun grooves. Most songs clock in at about two minutes, many even shorter. Thundercat is a great bassist. You can most easily hear his virtuosity on the song "Uh Uh." Excellent R&B / Soul numbers on this record. Also contains surprise guest vocals from both Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald. The album's strength is also its weakness: very short songs. For example, if you don't like a song, no problem. It will end quickly. However, that also means when Thundercat latches onto a juicy jam, he doesn't ride it long enough. The song may be over within a minute and a half. The result makes the album somewhat disjointed. Favorite song: "Them Changes"
The fact that the album was classified as hip-hop and the relatively recent release date of the album initially put me off quite a bit. I actually only wanted to listen to it briefly to confirm my negative suspicions. But then I listened to the album all the way through. It didn't live up to my low expectations and I really enjoyed it. I had no idea that such good soul and funk music was still being made today. 4/5
Thundercat is a monster bass player, but the quality of the songs on here leave a lot to be desired. As in: This was really boring. 2/5
Smooth but also kind of weird. Easy to lie down and chill with this album.
Has anyone with an ounce of talent made any music since 2000? If they have, I haven't heard it, and this did not change my mind. 1
listened to again certified hood classic
This album gives me uncanny vibes, it makes me feel weird. I like the originality of the music. The slow, jazz, soul feel is interesting.
This album feels like typical 2017 pop music. There is some funk here, but it feels very sterile and devoid of passion. It's not particularly good lyrically, nor does it create an atmosphere. The second half of the album is noticeably better than the first, which helps this album a lot as the first half was rather boring. "Them Changes" gave me a sense of deja vu, despite me not having heard of Thundercat prior to this challenge.
Intriguing...
Amazing album. Aural delight.
WAs nice, like Domi & JD Beck but less intense.
there were a couple of brief so so moments but mostly it was. not teribly accessible to me.
I appreciate the weirdness and non sequitur humor here, but it's not really what I'm looking for when listening to music.
This album was clearly written to annoy the everlasting fuck out of me.
It was hard to take this all in through one listening. I probably would have given it 2 stars but I feel like with more listening a some favorites would emerge given the musical terrain covered. I also rounded up for having a maximally idiosyncratic guest list that included both Kendrick Lamar and Kenny Loggins.
3/5 - This has some pretty funny lyrics, and I especially liked the tunes that felt like they could slot right into a video game soundtrack like Tokyo. This is really odd album to say the least, and it often feels like there's just ideas of songs that aren't fleshed out enough to really get into. Definitely not something I'll listen to front to back again, but I favorited a few tracks, and I appreciated the screwball soul here.
This is mad chill.
He’s my friend I also like anime 👍
Jazzy, mellow and weird (in a good way).
Playful vibes with intoxicating grooves. For dancing, walking or the bedroom (alone or with company). Like a tipsy dream. 4/5
nice vibe, doesn't really grab me though.
I went in having no idea as what to expect. I got just that. Mix of styles - jazz, soft rock, funk, that grew on me. I need more time with this one to “rate” it.
I'm a sucker for great bass playing. Personal enjoyment: 4/5 Relevance to this list: 4/5
Considerably better than what I was expecting, but this album gives off drunk vibes as it’s a little all over the place.
This is another album that sounds OK on the surface, but as it progresses the more disorganized and incomplete it feels. The songs are all so short they seem like passing thoughts instead of fully conceived ideas. This is music bordering on the avant-garde and it becomes more uncomfortable and difficult to enjoy as it unfolds. This is likely something I will never come back to. This is a more entertaining version of the same music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xuCn8ux2gbs&list=LL&index=24
Looney, nerdy bass nonsense of the smoothest kind. Gets way too knowingly kooky, though.
Utterly bizarre
it's reckless for all this talent to be in one place
I feel weird.
begint interessant, maar begint na tijdje tegen te steken... heel de tijd zelfde dingetje...

It’s always possible to tell when someone is having a good time putting an album together, and in Thundercat’s case the fun is infectious. The music is bouncy and funky, even if it does sound like the soundtrack to a Super Mario Galaxy game in places. The last case is a real possibility because it turns out that our Mr Thundercat is something of a nerd. He dedicates one track to his cat Tron and another about how much he likes being in Tokyo visiting Gundam cafes and spending all his money on anime. He also worries about posting every single thought on Twitter. He does touch on some more traditional lyrical topics but even when he’s getting inadvisably drunk it’s on Bombay Sapphire gin. Nerd-tastic!
Love it.
Very fun soundscape that I found myself really enjoying, 9/10, one of my favorite listens yet.
This was so good! Lyrics were funny at times and it was just a vibe.
Good funky stuff here, I come back quite a bit to some songs here but also there's some songs that just don't matter
Did not enjoy.
a lot of pop culture references, didn't really get it
I liked this a lot, especially the start of the record. It felt very much of the future, a wild mix of musical styles served with verve.
Knew a couple songs off here, and already loved "Them Changes" but this whole album was great! Funky, groovy, jazzy, funny, and weird. "Captain Stupido" and "A Fan's Mail (Tron Song Suite III)" were my other faves.
Hes very much an acquired tast but the album was definitely unique.
Very interesting. It’s kind of funny and bizarre but also very well done. I enjoyed it.
'I feel weird.' Definitely weird, Drunk is a splattering of 23 relatively short tracks, all of them virtuosic in one way or another, some speaking to some sort of relevance, others sheerly odd and abstract. A playful lyric: 'Thank God for technology 'cause where would we be / If we couldn't tweet our thoughts.' Objectively, while impressive, it's not as profound as it tends to make itself out to be, and it goes to show that Thundercat is an inventive bassist but not necessarily a resourceful songwriter. With that said, it has a sound that's undeniably nostalgic for me - a drift of alternative funk and R&B that artists like Vulfpeck and Frank Ocean also exemplified. We even covered 'Them Changes' in college. I'm thus liable to overrate it. Oh well.
I've liked some of these tracks for a long time, and have seen Thundercat live. I don't remember actually working all the way through this start to finish before. There's some great tracks but I don't think it's more than a collection of good tracks. I could have played it on shuffle and got the same thing from it.
Technically masterful, unashamedly quirky
I first heard this guy opening for RHCP, and I thought it was a joke. Now I understand that he is an immensely talented bass player, a giant nerd, and still somehow it feels likes a joke. I say that understanding why some people like this wild bass, oddly interlayed keys and such. It just doesnt have enough of a foundation to pull me. Some songs get very close.
Not bad. Some decent chill funk. Sweet cameo by Kendrick. But I need my funk with a deep bass and badass vibe. This only goes halfway.
Very interesting to listen to! I love the funk vibe. I bet it would grow on me if I listened to it a few more times. 3.5/5
Jazz and soft rock equals extreme boredom. 1 star or F.
I wasn't sure what to think of this album initially. I had to give it a second and even third listen and found myself really enjoying most of the tracks. Very funky bass lines, busy, moog-y and synth heavy, but simple and clean at the same time. Smooth soul-like vocals, most songs have very whimsical lyrics and are relatable and funny, but it also features some great collabs with Pharrell, Kendrick, Wiz Khalifia, that go a little harder. Kind of a mix of party songs and funny life songs. Uh Uh slaps and Friend Zone is great. Reminds me a bit of like Frank Zappa meets Michael Jackson.
Meh. Interesting but not interesting enough
This started very good and unusual but after that it sounded like the songs were on repeat. A bit of variation for fuck sake 😅. You're getting a 2, could've been much higher
Some quality tracks and grooves and maybe some lesser once but it's an album that deserves a few more listens to find what works for you.
Zany, catchy, and funny all at the same time. Most of all, this thing is a blast. Hard not to laugh out loud at some of the tracks here. Just an amazing jazz album.
hat mich nicht so gepackt. aber ok.
Etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig
I like Thundercat a lot and have listened to this album a few times before. He’s a great bass player and very cool. It’s a bit samey though.
Smooth, stylish, bass….
4+/5
Surprising Kendrick feature was awesome
There are some interesting things happening in Contemporary Jazz-Fusion lately. Thundercat is at the top of the genre and he's bringing some friends along. Badbadnotgood, Domi & JD Beck, Sungazer, and Robert Glasper are all in a similar orbit. It's certainly not for everyone, but the guest musicians and vocalists widen the appeal. This album has some great variety and the musicianship is top-notch. I tended to tune out when the music dipped its toe into the Frank Zappa pool, but overall it's a fun listen.
Solid project!
Quirky, interesting mix of different genres, just didn't feel this one too much, definitely one that needs a few listens.
Meh
I really wanted to be blown away by this. Thundercat's talent is indisputable. But I found the tracks lacking in range and diversity. I wanted big jams as well the quiet contemplative and funny stuff that the WHOLE album basically is. All 24 tracks. Oops... I listened to Drank accidentally. Drunk is much better.
How does this make any list
Thick, gooey bass grooves. A fantastic and fun listen. The foot never comes of the gas pedal. Sick collaborations and just silky funky, soulful, jazzy sounds from beginning to end.
Fuck. Yes. Thundercat fucking rules. I hope this turned some new people onto his music. I think he is a genius. Do yourself a favor and watch some video of him playing. If you’re not impressed by listening to the album, that should do it for you. Awesome choice.
No
3.5, felt unique
Yeah the album is good. The production is enjoyable i don't think i disliked any of the production choices really. Bass line is always killer in all the songs. Although some songs have similar notes with each other i think and makes the album overstay its welcome at its tail end. But i think at the time of listening they are different enough to still be enjoyable and not be stall. Scratches that itch of my ADHD brain going every which way with songs like "inferno". I think the lyrics need some work lol. Find the references to games endearing albeit forced sometimes. Some unflattering lyrics here and there. Have a knee jerk reaction to any songs alluding to the "friendzone" because of the type of guys that usual complain about it. And the lyrics for that song have confirm my suspicions lol. Also "Tokyo" with references of getting a girl pregnant by being psychotic and the suicide forest. I am open that the artist is playing a character and at least the lyrics do stand out lol. Luckily, the unsavory lyrics is paired with the best production in the album so not too mad lol. Overall, despite the lyrics not being that great it just a nice album to sit back to, enjoy the production choices and just wind down a little bit with anime/gaming references lol. 4 out of 5 stars
meow i thought i was going to love this
I enjoyed this album, which had r'n'b, and even funk and disco at times!
A little bit to similar
Pretty good sonically, pretty odd lyrically
Incredible album, quirked up and terminally online. But it's so groovy too!!
Really different from anything else I’ve heard. Unfortunately it’s never different from itself.
non proprio il mio genere, in più non è nemmeno hip hop imo
Good but too long. Loved the first tracks when they were super jazzy. It was a massive surprise, I don't find often that "80s jazz rock" approach in modern music. Then I got distracted and the album started to be a bit more boring. And the guy was the Suicidal Tendencies bass player, cool!
01.10.25 #7 Favourite Tracks: Captain Stupido. Rate: 7/10 As a bassist i really enjoyed listen to this album. but some songs sounds the same.
Really enjoyed this!
What a fun album, I've heard of Thundercat but never really gave him a listen. Lots of great guests and some really whimsical stuff. I think it might be a little too smooth jazz for my taste but it's definitely a great album. The Kenny Loggins/Michael McDonald collab really fits into this album well.
I’m all for experimenting but I probably won’t listen to this ever again
Likes his complicated chords a bit too much, and too smooth for my taste but nevertheless brilliant. I prefer Louis Cole tho 3.9
So bad
3.5
A smooth album full of musical talent and a nice walk through the styles with nods to Parliament, D'Angelo and many others. As with many other albums of the hip hop adjacent genres there are too many tracks and highlights. Over 23 tracks, but most of them are short: That's a recipe for not recognizing the music properly. Everything blends into each other. Therefore, I can only rank this with three stars even though some part in me wants to give it more.
3/5. This is basically if Frank Zappa invested in more jazz and R&B, more so than he already did. It's very clear Thundercat can play his bass and sing but I am not sure if I am fully here for the songwriting. Sometimes, it feels innovative and weird in a good way and then it falls flat with a generic R&B song. This would almost feel more whole if it was just a bunch random ideas and demos, experimental progressive jazz completely. I did enjoy the record but felt like it was not unsure with itself, like who does Thundercat want to be? Seems like he was still figuring that out too. Best Song: Them Changes, Uh Uh, Tokyo, Inferno
Funky find
My word this was underwhelming. Really not a fan of the cheesy 80s vibe. Kind of boring with a bit of bass player showboating to boot. It’s a no from me
Absolute dross - never again
Didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. Great musicianship but the songs were a little quirky in places for my taste.
Not sure why, but when I saw the album cover I was expecting rap. That said I listened to this while working and it was over before I knew it. It was simply on in the background but I did enjoy the album as a whole. I can’t name any one song from the track list, but it made for a very quick hour (51 minutes) of work. 3.4 stars just short of rounding up to 4 because I can’t even name one song, but admittedly that might be a me problem.
"Drunk" was a waste of my time.
Um, I will give this a three. There was some good stuff on here but also some pretty esoteric pieces that didn't always hit the mark for me. If I could I would give it a 2.5
That was really fun.
About halfway it really started growing on me
Lazy and one note. Pass.
Day 73 First listen- Great to play as background to get work done (2.5/5)
Very soulful. Smooth background music.
I appreciate weird. But it has to be paired with substance. And this has none. It's just boring.
Madcap fun
Ridiculously talented musicianship throughout. Whilst there's a tendency for this kind of thing to err towards muzak, there's something here which keeps it honest. The injection of lo-fi sounds, particularly reminiscent of Nujabes at times, is very welcome.. Funky as all hell.
Bad.
insanity from the 70's
This was pretty awesome. Sort of yacht-hop? Cool cover art too.
I've known about Thundercat for a while but I've never checked out any of his projects. Them Changes is a basic choice but it's still probably my favorite song off the album, I've known about that song way before I listened to the album though. The listening experience as a whole was nice; most of the songs had a nice groove to them.
Previously I'd only heard Thundercat on To Pimp A Butterfly. Not my thing, nothing felt like a banger that'd stay with you. The album felt too long even though it was more or less regular length 2/5
All kinds of fusion: hip hop, jazz, soul and he has some cool bass sounds
I wanted to like this more than I did. He is a wild instrumentalist and his music is fun, but there is something in me that doesn’t enjoy it too much.
I know Them Changes and that's about it - I loved Thundercat's playing on Mac Miller's Tiny Desk Concert so I'm excited to hear him in action on an album. Off to a ripping start with Captain Stupido. Lots of bass chords and funky textures. Uh Uh very jazzy. I don't know how he is playing like this. It's like Funkadelic on speed. This record is kind of jazz-funk meets yacht rock so far. Lots of wah on the bass and envelope filters for that synthy feel. A Fan's Mail - my friend said "it's verging into 'need to be high for this' territory". It may in fact be that kind of album. I feel like Thundercat has been all over other artist's stuff to the point I have trouble separating it a bit. The shorter songs are reminding me of extended Kendrick interludes or something. He really has a great voice for hooks and I think the fuzzy headed feeling of the album works with the Drunk title. Drums are superb and there are a bunch of neat keys parts too. I really like Show You The Way, the yacht rock comes full circle with the guest vocals. Now Kendrick is here and it sounds very natural. Anddd we're back to jazz! Friend Zone is a bop for sure. Just classic Thundercat weirdness with super slick music. "...cause I got enough friends" goes hard. Them Changes is a modern bass classic. 10/10 for sure. Drink Dat is cool too. The 2nd half in general is much better to me. Overall I gotta say there is just a little too much jazzy bullshit (to me) to get the 5 star. Solid 4-4.5 with how good of a musician he is but without the features there are really only a few songs I truly enjoyed.
I like it. I was teetering back and forth on a 3 to 4. I think I'm back at 3, I really love the music on some of them but then some others just switch it up and don't do it for me.
Kendrick Lamar (and Kenny Loggins!) save this from one-star territory. That may be the worst opening song I've heard in 1000 albums.
More like “Pussycat” than “Thundercat”
fire
Super funky and casual in a way that isn't really my jam. A song about getting into Japanese culture from DBZ is both a wonderful affirmation of how things can matter to people, and not something I really want to listen to.
Thundercat - Drunk perfect album for a chilly Sunday morning. love the meandering jazz along with random hilarious lines scattered throughout. It starts so strong, but does fall-off a bit as the record goes on. I Want to give it a 4, but it'll likely be a 3
Ok I've tried a couple times to get this album and I just don't. Usually I enjoy the weird expemental stuff but this missed me by a lot.
Not at all surprised this is polarizing but count me in the “love it” camp. Part Curtis Mayfield, part Andre 3000, part something entirely different. Not quite 5 stars but close and could grow there with time.
Astral jazz? "Calming - I quite like it" - Caroline
Really weird, really cool
78% Best: Uh Uh; Show You The Way; Friend Zone; Them Changes Must-Hear? Not quite
OMG - I knew Thundercat was good but I'm embarrassed that I haven't listened to this until now! Amazing
Thundercat’s the goat, Drunk; an incredible album.
I thought this may be good with a name like "Thundercat." How wrong I was!! I don't even know how to describe it. It's not even decent background noise as the music sucks and that castrato voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard. Couldn't wait for this piece of shit to end
It's the kind of album musicians love. But I don't.
[Insert Thundercats cartoon reference here] I like a lot of the ideas on this album, and Thundercat’s mix of funk/jazz/soul/hip hop is cool. There were a lot of tracks (23 in total!!) that had a kernel of a something good but somehow didn’t seem to gel and come together for me. Some more editing might have helped. 3⭐️
This album is probably a 3.5 for me. I really like Thundercat, and there are at least a couple absolutely amazing songs on this album, such as "Them Changes" and "Show You the Way," but my problem with this album is that it is too much "the same" throughout most of it. There are not enough dynamics, different styles of singing, or variety in songs to not make it feel too long and a bit boring at times. That being said, it's still better than a lot of other stuff out there, and I think it deserves a 4 on this scale.
probably my favorite album yet that we've had, i was a mild thundercat fan before this from features but it blew me away how much i liked this and how smooth i found it so it's going in my rotation immediately, hope you're prepared...
omg!!!! some songs i really really REALLY love like friend zone! like 10/10 a bop!! and then some songs i wanted them to end as soon as they started lmfaooooo but the songs i do like, i like so much this has to be a highly rated album. i really liked the groovy sound to it and sometimes the album reminded me of like old r&b or some of tyler's sound and i swear one song sounds like kamauu's mango i can't explain it!!! anyway this is my vibe 🙂↕️
Jewels in between pigs.
Samey.
I’ve got a few of his albums but this one seems a bit more “boring” than the others but I still like it!
This was quite interesting. I have heard a couple of these songs before. I liked it.
No conocía a este señor. Pero me ha acompañado su fusión de una forma muy agradable
I already have a song saved from this album
Very chill with some interesting 8-bit vibes in a few of those songs. This is definitely baby-making music, so the style isn't exactly what I look for.
As a hip-hop, metal and jazz fan, I was excited to see that today's album was made by a guy from Compton, who had played in jazz bands and with Suicidal Tendencies before starting a solo career. I was expecting a wild experimentation in stylistic crossover, and I was really looking forward to it. What I got instead was a pretentious and nonsensical soup of bad RnB, childish lyrics, forced high-pitched voice and Nintendo sounds - a Frankenstein Monster stuck in the Twilight Zone somewhere between "unintelligible rambling", "cringey hipster joke" and "boring elevator jazz". It does indeed feel like being drunk, I'll give him that. He’s also meowing at some point. Literally. Although I’m not sure which is the worst – the meowing, the unsufferable RnB voice or the absurd lyrics about anime characters. My cat certainly shows more depth when he’s meowing at me. At least he’s actually got something to say, and he's actually a real cat. Just to be clear, I'm usually completely on board with weird experiments... That's not what's bothering me here. It's his horribly grating voice and the "hipster ironic vibe". The only thing I didn’t actively hate was the electro / astral jazz vibe. Had it been a purely instrumental album, I might have tried to find something good to say about it... But the singing was so maddeningly irritating that I just can’t be bothered.
A jumbled album like a tasteless failed cocktail What's it doing in this selection?
Suicidal Tendencies may be known for crossover thrash, but they have also been a surprising launchpad for eclectic, jazz-influenced musicians like drummers like Eric Moore (TRAM) or Thomas Pridgen, for example. Thundercat spent nine years in the band, which I had absolutely no clue about. His solo work is a whole different world without thrash in sight, but I think that surviving on stage with those lunatics must have left some lasting marks. Out of his four albums, the one I landed on is apparently the least celebrated, at least according to some critics. Yet, It is wildly eclectic and definitely exciting to explore, though I’m not always sold on the electronic textures, and I often wished the bass felt more raw and upfront. Still, the vision is clear, and as an album it totally works with influence ranging from Pastorius to alternative rap. It left me curious enough to dig deeper into his discography and to dive into the whole West Coast Get Down collective as well.
“Them Changes” is what hooked me years ago, so good to go back and listen to this whole album. Was nice to hear collaborations I didn’t know happened. Never heard bass forward jazz before, I’ll take it.
It sounds drunk
Funky and interesting
Generic R&B melody and beats with strange lyrics.
"Goku fucking ruuuiiined meeeee" was the last thing I expected to hear on a soul album lmao. I genuinely almost spit my water out. I understand that soul is supposed to be comfort music. But for something to be considered comfort music, it needs to have entertainment value, and soul just doesn't work for me. Soul is usually way too laid back for my taste, so I just don’t have much fun listening to it. Calm music I like still usually builds up to something and has some exciting parts, which is not typical for soul. This album does have some good moments, though. This is not a generic soul album as it has a bunch of synths and modern pop culture references, and is generally more lighthearted (there’s even a Kendrick feature, for some reason). It’s… interesting, but as for how much fun I had listening to it, it’s just fine. The last 10 tracks or so are closer to more traditional soul, so I enjoyed them much less. I also think that some of the songs are way too short (the album is 51 minutes long, and there are 23 songs), not giving them ample time to breathe.
I appreciate how authentic this album felt, but I didn’t connect with it the way a lot of others likely did There was nothing particularly bad about it outside of the fact that it started to get repetitive towards the end Some of my favorites parts of the album included… -Friend Zone, which featured my favorite instrumental on the album -Them Changes, which justified being the big hit it became -The features, which are solid for the most part with Kenny Loggins and Kendrick Lamar being the standouts It’s hard to find a lot of negative here, but I also don’t think it’s very special in any way Favorites: None Honorable Mentions: Friend Zone, Them Changes
Cannot figure it out. Interesting rather than good
I'm familiar with Thundercat based on his work with other artists, but not his solo stuff directly. But holy hell, that bass playing is smooth. The lyrics are all over the map, some of it is so silly, some of it is tight. Overall, it's a tight album.
Groovy! That was a pretty nice experience. I liked the classic Sonic SFX and contemporary slang terms in the lyrics - but it's really just an another pleasant, vibe-full album. Def worth listening to again c:
Track 2. Captain Stupido. Pretty much sums it up.
4 - fantastic modern funk hip hop
Schlock
This one surprised me in a very good way. Tempted to offer 5 stars on this one, but I think that could only be justified with several re-listens. One of the stronger 4 star ratings I've given.
Delightful. There's something wry and sweet and naive about TC as a songwriter that keeps me hooked into the next line.
I was not expecting to love this album as much as I did. I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect, but I didn’t think it would be one of the most creative albums I’ve ever heard. The music is amazing and the lyrics pull off both humor and vulnerability extremely well, with all the features being great. My only complaint is that some songs can blend together a bit, but this was right on the border of being a 5. 4/5
Can I have the hour of my life that I spent listening to this back please?
Not what I expected from the album art. It's electronica, but definitely not danceable. This album invites you to sit down on a velvet couch and get comfortable with your existential dread. Just vibe with the songs. It's good and interesting, but I think I could have gone without listening to it. It makes you think. My Rating: 4/5
This album was not for me. It was *painful* to listen to, but it just made me feel kind of anxious and like I didn’t know what to do. I could bop to some, but with others, it felt like the percussion was too fast and urgent for me.
Love it or hate it, but I like bass and things that I can listen to in the background, so this works for me.
55/1001 Thundercat - Drunk Heard before? ✅ Revisit? ❓ I remember really enjoying this at the time of release, as it didn't take itself seriously at all, but there was a nice fusion of jazz, hip-hop and funk all rolled into one. Now a few years later, that novelty has kinda worn off. It's still an enjoyable listen, but too long at just over 50 minutes.
Fun listen. But far too long and it starts to all sound the same. And with 23 songs at 51 mins, the fat could have been trimmed. Them Changes truly is an absolute banger of a tune. Some other good tracks as well, can't remember which ones. Kendrick feature was good. 3.5
Very poor, didnt enjoy one second of this
dnf - did not capture my interest
bass
Very pleasant surprise
Good vibey album
I imagine critics LOVE this. I don't. It seems like it's trying too hard OR not trying at all . In either case, it's not my thing.
This one was pure fun. Twenty-three tracks packed into just 51 minutes, and it flies by at breakneck speed. Thundercat bounces across genres with ease, pulling in hip hop, rock, psychedelia, pop, jazz, and funk, sometimes all within the same song. It is chaotic in the best way possible, like flipping through radio stations where everything somehow clicks. The guest list alone is wild. Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald show up for a smooth throwback moment, Kendrick Lamar brings his usual fire, and Wiz Khalifa and Pharrell both leave their stamp. The collaborations never feel forced, they just add more layers to the rollercoaster. Of course, “Them Changes” is instantly recognizable, especially after it blew up on TikTok, but there is plenty more to love here. Every track feels alive and unpredictable...I went in expecting a quirky listen, and I walked away wanting to dig deeper into his catalog. This is an album that never takes itself too seriously but still delivers something brilliant.

7/10
Apart maar een lekkere jam
It makes me irritated
Interesting album. Some vibes like Childish Gambino's Redbone. I like it, but not entirely sold.
The way this man plays the bass is god teir. This was an amazing example of artistry alive in music today. This deserves more admiration by the public. Glad I got to hear it
I forgot how humerous it is throughout while kinda getting serious at the end Fav tracks: lava lamp, walk on by,show me the way,tokyo and of course them changes
Wiz Khalifa song is a fat dookie on an otherwise great record. Largely no-skip. Thundercat isn't afraid to throw in some humor. Thought the second track placement was a little odd. I can definitely see myself coming back to this album.
Absolutely awful music
I never heard of Thundercat before the HBO Yacht Rock documentary. I was expecting something more Yacht Rocky based on that, but this is pretty good. Bass playing is off the hook. Vocals are weirder than I was expecting. Loggins and MacDonald are gold.
This guy has a lot of talent. Uh Uh sounds like someone's been listening to Jaco. Which is not an easy feat to pull off. A little long but a solid listen overall.
Max said he really liked it.
Listened in the truck via YouTube music. Listened to a lot when it came out. Super catchy hooks
Nice
Interesting sounds.
"Drunk" is the third studio album by American musician, singer, record producer, songwriter and bassist Thundercat (aka Stephen Lee Bruner). Funk, jazz hip hop, pop, psychedelia, R&B and soul are the Wiki-listed genres. Yes, the album covers or can slide into a number styles and that's what it's noted for. The album features guest musicians and singers including Kenny Loggins, Michael McDonald, Kendrick Lamar, Wiz Khalifa, Mac Miller, Kamasi Washington and Louis Cole and was produced by Thundercat, Flying Lotus and Sounwave. Thundercat is lead vocalist, plays the bass and does the programming. A host of other musicians, vocalists and programmers also contribute. The album had very positive reviews and, commercially, it reached #37 in the UK and #50 on the US Billboard 200. "Rabbot Ho" opens the album. Thundercat's bass and high tenor voice. There's a piano. A short song referencing alcohol, drug use and partying. After several interesting songs comes the second single released "Bus in These Streets." Synth keys that sound like bells. Louis Cole on drums and synths in a song that sounds like a 60's pop song. A standard rock beat. The lyrics talk about disconnecting oneself from digital technology. Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins guest on "Show Your Way." Soft rock, heck, even yacht rock and why not? Layered vocals. This hits the spot. Overlayed, swirling synth keys and a ticking sound begin "Friend Zone." A hip hop and RB beat. Thundercat's funked-out bass and layered percussion. The first single "Them Changes" has an even more funked-out bass (even a wah-wah sound). The beat samples the Isley Brothers' Footsteps in the Dark." Kamasi Washinton on the sax. What else could you want? The album does cover a lot styles (jazz, funk, pop, yacht rock, soul and R&B) but the album has an overlying dreamy R&B and chill vibe. Thundercat has a soulful tenor voice and is an impressive bassist. The production is fairly detailed with the beats, bass and music in general providing an interesting listen. The songs are short which keeps things moving. For some reason, this album reminded me of Earth, Wind & Fire and it wasn't due to Sabrina Carpenter bringing them up on stage at Lollapalooza. Overall, it's a very good album and, if you're an R&B, pop or soul fan, you're sure to enjoy.
interesting album
very much reminded me of tyler the creator (though i know thundercat precedes tyler). really, really interesting intersection of r&b, jazz, funk, and more. everything was done really well, and you can tell thundercat is super talented. moreover, the album was a fun listen! easy 5.
Eh. Some okay stuff, some fine stuff. A lot of stuff I won’t come back to.
Kind of a long album, but it doesn’t get boring. Super chill. Kinda reminds me of the Love Below. Idk I almost want to give it a 4. That Inferno song sounds like a Beatles song but which one.
Very chill, will give this one a few replays and see if I enjoy it more.
Hard no for me.
Ugh. Electronica.
Kendrick and Wiz features are the only saving grace, would've been a 1 star.
Wow this really sucked although not as bad as some of the unlistenable ones on the list.
Pleasant but not my thing.
This was a pleasant enough r&b record from the 2010s, while I admit I enjoyed the record and my time listening to it, I found that very little stuck out to me. This includes the several tracks that feature prominent guest stars including but not limited to Kenny Loggins, Kendrick Lamar, and Wiz Khalifa. I honestly would mostly go through a song and go “that was nice” and then I didn’t remember why I liked or didn’t like a song a little while later.
Never heard of Thundercat. Allstar lineup of collaborators. This is a great funk/jazz/fusion/R&B album. Pitchfork: 8.5 Best Songs Uh Uh A Fan's Mail (Tron Song Suite II) Show You The Way (w/ Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald) Walk On By (w/ Kendrick Lamar) Tokyo Friend Zone Them Changes Drink Dat (w/ Wiz Khalifa) 3AM
Not the biggest jazz fan, but liked this as has a lot going on and clearly mega talented and varied. Played Park stage in 2023!
Not for me.
точно про обложке помню что должна была слушать это в 2017, но не по музыке) что-то странное, не втянуло
YES! Amazing album by a musical genius. I listen to Thundercat maybe too much. But as a bass player, it's incredible to hear what he can do.
I'd never listened to Thundercat before so was going in with an open mind and a blank canvas. Some crazy jazz fusion, incredibly impressive bass, bizarre key changes (in a good way). I was at times bopping and then at other times i was confused. There's certainly a comedy element to the album which I enjoyed. Jovial. Playful. But also some serious playing. 7/10 Favourite songs - Lava Lamp, Show You the Way, Tokyo, Them Changes
Nice vibe to chill to, and really funny lyrics. Fave Song: Them Changes
The name fits the album very well. Was very good honestly, listend to it a few times. Favourite Song: Walk On By
its very weird but i like it. like i honestly enjoyed the whole thing and feel its prob a 3 but for how much i enjoyed it i could see it being a 4.
I was surprised by this album. I liked shortened melodies and the reliance on jazz tropes.
Pleasant and forgettable. My hopes were higher because the cover reminded me of Maggot Brain. This is not that.
I love good music but I also hate some music. All that I hate about music is encapsulated in this album. 1/5 21/7/25
Not my music
Didnt realize he was always like this. Sound reminds me of bill wurtz. Definitely better if not sober. Them changes is a banger tho
Dude is an insanely talented player. This album is more impressive than enjoyable to me though. Maybe I just need more time with it
Fun album. Definitely a little long and it drags a little in the second half but this still grooves. It's a limited list but this is a personal favorite of the 2010s.
The true Ace of Bass. 4.5
3.3 2x catch up 7/18
This is pretty unique, maybe a little too experimental for me but I love that its something out of the box
Cowards hear the bass on Uh Uh and declare this music is too weird and off putting despite that being the tightest shit I’ve ever heard.
Left me with not much positive to say…
3.5
I expected to like this more than I did; I feel like the whole is less than the sum of the parts here. I liked the individual tracks, but they all got a bit much for me. I liked the various guest additions, and there's no doubt there's a lot of skill on display here, but it all got a little too samey.
A nice change from all the 1970s alternative rock that dominates this list – something more recent for once. Not exactly my usual style, but I’d listen again. Perfect dinner-party flex: “Oh, you don’t know Thundercat? Let me put it on…” Standout track: hard to pick just one since it all flows together so fluidly, but I’d say “Show You The Way”.
Wildly talented, and one of the more random characters in music history (he has a small niche place there for sure), Thundercat is . . . something. Not sure what. This sounds like he got really, really high and recorded an album on a Casio keyboard. That's not exactly praise. Mild reprieve from King Crimson (emphasis on mild) and we're back in solid 2-star land. This might actually be a one.
I read a thread once that asked what music Frank Zappa would listen to if he were still alive, and the top answer was Thundercat. I think that's spot on. This album is groovy and weird and funky. "Them Changes" has one of the best basslines ever written. Some songs are short and do not feel fully fleshed out, but I think that adds to how off-kilter much of the album feels. I dig it.
I legitimately cannot decide if I hate this or love it. Regardless, I have listened to it five times to get a better idea, and have not gotten any closer to a decision. These are the kinds of albums people start cults around, and I may (or may not) be here for it.
Solid modern day funk. The arrival of Kendrick provides the first real highlight. Adding a much needed layer of texture to the track, lacking on those before it. Generally there is too much synths for my liking and no where is that more apparent than ‘Friend zone’. Which is the sound of an oncoming migraine. Drink dat is another standout and it’s not coincidental that this is another track with a guest rapper, in Wiz Khalifa. Unfortunately for me at least when Thundercat is playing off someone stylistically different and therefore this generally falls a bit flat
When the first couple of tracks included the lyric “beat your meat” and meowing, I nearly wrote this off as a batshit, 1-star listen that I would let in one ear and out the other. Then Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald came to save the day. The following batch of tracks had great guest stars, tight grooves - and no more ridiculous lyrics. Despite the album picking up in the middle, I felt, as it got towards the end, it just became a bit dull. I was almost longing for more silly lyrics to at least make me react somehow. An excellent grasp of my rule of “keep songs under four minutes” though.
I am not sure how to feel about this at all. It was... samey? It was sort of like listening to a single 23-part, 51 minute song, that sounded like someone was just stream of consciousness rambling and then occasionally someone like Kendrick or Wiz Khalifa would try and interrupt to get him back on track. I had to listen to it in two parts because I realised half way through that I didn't really want to finish it but that I wasn't really sure why. I didn't hate it, just didn't have the patience for it. All of which I think gets me to: 2/5
Not entirely sure about this album. Some nice touches of soul and funk, which I usually like but it didn’t quite tick the box for some reason

Vorallem Hip-Hop aber au no chli anders züg. Mer aber wie z "Modärn" im senn dass alles entweder noch emne gnaue Algorithmus gmacht esch oder mer sech frogt was das gnau sett. Insgesammt geds wie ned so songs wo gross usegstoche send. Höchstens wel sie chli onöblech send, aber die hend mer de halt ned so gfalle. Mer darf mi aber au ned falsch verstoh, a sech esch s Albom ned so schlächt ond es ged au einigi Tracks wo voll guet send (Them Changes oder Walk on by) au de räscht esch no voll okay aber wie nüd gross spannends oder speziells.
This album could have been a masterpiece with better editing - got a bit too sonically repetitive as it wore on. That being said, it’s still a damn good album - his vocals are so smooth and the harmonies layered in perfect little petite fours of sound. A lot of Todd Rungren both in harmony and instrumentation. Loved this
A fun but slight album. I enjoyed his bass playing and the collaborations with Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins and the other song with Kendrick Lamar. Often, though, a boring, "soft funk" album that irritated me when there are so many other more deserving ones that should br on this list.
Listened to this in 2017 and didnt get the hype, and I still don't. There are definitely some good songs here, with funny lyrics and funky bass lines, that are generally a good time. I like the Kendrick feature. But so much of this is just filler to me, its fine, not essential or enough to make the whole album worthwhile really.
Experimental and progressive tunes that meet somewhere in the middle of jazz, funk, hip-hop, soul, R&B, and psychedelia…and does so quite well. The musical talent here is phenomenal, particularly the bass. Plus some tender vocal harmonies. For all of the virtuosity, it doesn’t take itself too seriously and isn’t afraid to be silly. While many songs are a fun listen, the songwriting skills don’t quite match the musical competence. But it does have a solid groove and a lot of creative ideas. Ultimately, it’s a fresh sound that scratches a unique itch but isn’t something I find myself reaching for regularly.
Influences include Funk, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Pop, Ppsychedelia, Punk-Rock, R&B, Soft- Rock, and Soul - so it's no surprise that this album is musically all over the place. Many tracks are under 2 minutes, with the longest track being 4 minutes - more a collection of insipid vignettes, than an album of songs. After a while, all the tracks just sounded the same to me. I just couldn't get into this album.
Enjoyed more than I thought, but had it on more as background. Would listen again
I've struggled with this album for a long time. Obviously all the musicians are top level but it's just hard to get into.
Very experimental, funk and jazz elements (basslines, vocal harmonies, jazzy pianos in Uh Uh). With synthy/electro elements. Some chord progressions remind me of Animals as Leaders, so quite unusual keys? Weird lyrics. Is quite draining to listen to the whole album Best track - Uh Uh, Lava Lamp, Them Changes, Where I'm Going 4 stars
This was certainly different. In a good way I think
this guys voice is insanely annoying but features make ip for it
Thundercat er bra, men kan bli litt intens.
3+
Quite enjoyed the album, especially the cat song
This was weird. Apparently a virtuoso on bass, he had a lot of collaborations. But it was very anime type strangeness. Couldn’t get into it at all. But not 2 star bad.
Da het sich mis herzlich gfreut, en alte Bekannte vode Neuziit ih mine öhrli zha. Und obwohl ich ihn als super lustige (und biz wahnsinnige) wahrnimme, sind paar vo sine lieder au bizli wild und astrengend gsi zum lose. Dashalb leider doch abgrundeti 3 usekotzti wollknäul

Honestly, the more I listened to this album the more I disliked it. "Them Changes" is still great, "Tokyo" is sort of funny", but the album is poorly balanced in general. It really only needs to be like 5 songs. The guest features do not save it.
Listened to this a few times before. But a great album, always fun and goes hard. Quriky Thundercat bass vibes.
dank ass bass - luis cole vibes . samples aplenty. did he coin all the phrases or he is referencing other things? "miss me with that nonsense"
