Jazz, Hip Hop, Funk, Soul, Electronica - Thundercat could never be reduced to a single genre. Instead, the fusion specialist brings out the best in all styles. Just like on his new, meanwhile fourth album "It Is What It Is". Three years fans have been waiting for the successor of "Drunk". With the single "Black Qualls" the bassist, producer and Grammy winner already presented a foretaste of the record, a collabo track with guitarist Steve Lacy from The Internet and singer Steve Arrington. And also the rest of the guest list of "It Is What It Is" can be seen and heard: Childish Gambino, Ty Dolla $ign, Flying Lotus, BadBadNotGood, Lil' B and Kamasi Washington. Production support was provided by Louis Cole, Sounwave and Mono/Poly. The result of this collaboration is what Thundercat himself calls an album about love, loss, life and the ups and downs that come with it. "It Is What It Is" - Thundercats new album is what it is: a collection of songs with an enormous range, in terms of themes, guests and above all the music.
