Watch Thundercat On Why? With Hannibal Buress

Thundercat appeared on Hannibal Buress's new show again last night. Previously, he backed up the rapper Open Mike Eagle; this time, he performed his latest single, "Them Changes." The motor of the track is the stuttering breakbeat borrowed from the iconic Isley Brothers hit "Footsteps In The Dark," and Thundercat's bass adds a sinewy, squiggly groove. Watch the samurai-themed video for "Them Changes," and read FADER's Hannibal Buress cover story.
