Titled It Is What It Is, the forthcoming project will feature Childish Gambino, Ty Dolla $ign, Steve Lacy and others. It is produced by Thundercat and Flying Lotus. The album, which drops April 3, serves as the follow-up to 2017's Drunk.

"This album is about love, loss, life and the ups and downs that come with that," Thundercat said in a press release. "It’s a bit tongue-in-cheek, but at different points in life you come across places that you don’t necessarily understand… some things just aren’t meant to be understood."

The virtuosic bass player has also shared a track from It Is What It Is called "Black Qualls." The upbeat funk song features Gambino, Lacy and Slave's Steve Arrington.

The track list for It Is What It Is can be viewed below. In December, Thundercat announced a 2020 North American tour.
