Thundercat's Drunk sprawls across 23 tracks in 46 minutes, a structure that mirrors its subject matter: emotional chaos compressed into bite-sized episodes. Flying Lotus shapes the sonic architecture while guests like Kenny Loggins and Michael McDonald lend yacht-rock legitimacy to Bruner's absurdist heartbreak chronicles.

His virtuosic bass anchors songs about loneliness and excess with the same intensity whether they last 90 seconds or four minutes. The result plays like a concept album about modern disconnection, delivered with falsetto vulnerability and comic timing that never diminishes the genuine melancholy underneath.
