“I do believe that hip-hop can be the new jazz, and I’m helping create that”, Bruner said in an interview to Bass Player, in 2008.
He is part of the new generation of jazz literate, hip-hop loving instrumentalists who can play beyond traditional limits - a mutant jazz cat - and that’s how 'Thundercat' (a monicker he chose), suits him well (even if it’s purely the result of an unhealthy cartoon addiction dating back to childhood).
Walkin’
Thundercat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's no place I'd rather be
You make my days bright as the sun
Each moment with you I adore
'Cause there is no one like you girl
I'm just a fool for you, baby
I can't keep my cool
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To put myself closer to you
Every time that I look in your eyes
I see a reflection of me
Don't ever leave me alone
Without you where would I be?
Lalalalalala

Her presence makes his life brighter and he cherishes every moment with her. He admits that he's a fool for her and can't seem to keep his cool around her. The use of "Lalalalalala" could signify that he's lost for words to describe how he feels for her or that words aren't sufficient to express his emotions.
In the second paragraph, the singer talks about his devotion to his partner. He's willing to do anything to be closer to her and when he looks into her eyes, he sees himself reflected in them.

Overall, this song celebrates the beauty of love and the bond between two people who are meant to be together. It's a lighthearted and joyous composition that evokes emotions of happiness in listeners.
