Thundercat On 'It Is What It Is,' Losing Mac Miller And Learning To Do Nothing Enlarge this image toggle caption The1point8 / Carlos G./Courtesy of the artist The1point8 / Carlos G./Courtesy of the artist Stephen Bruner, better known as Thundercat, is one of the music industry's most eclectic and prolific collaborators. Losing Mac Miller, your friend, he isn't your only friend you have lost too soon, and I'm wondering to be a young man and to have lost people, that's hard and I do wonder what you think about that. "It is what it is," is like this is reality; this is what we live in; this is the existence; this is the existential dread, that feeling of "I don't know what's going to happen" and impending doom. When you get older you start to say things like "These kids think they're invincible" and stuff like that — and you kind of do.
