    Thundercat looks about 10 years younger since he stopped drinking. Such a talent.

    I've heard this man play hundreds, if not thousands of times. I've never heard him play the same way twice. It's a testament to the authenticity in his musicianship. Coming from a brand new place every time.

    Golden age of the apocalypse is one the greatest albums of all time to me. It’s literally a historic classic album for the ages

      I feel the exact same way. From the album cover to the intro playing the Thundercats theme song. That album is perfect

    These two guys are some of my favorite artists of all time. I remember listening to their music on repeat everyday in high school and then on. I’ve seen thundercat 7 times live and Robert Glasper twice. This interview really is a gift and long time coming🤧
