Thundercat‘s “Tokyo” is a joyous ode to the city’s nerd culture that features the bassist singing about his love for the Gundam Café and Dragonball Z. The Drunk track’s just-released video naturally finds him enjoying the eponymous city’s wonders. The video, directed by Jun Hanamoto-Hearn, is his first since last year’s “Song for the Dead.” Watch Thundercat’s journeys below. He will also tour extensively throughout the fall; view those dates below, too.
