"Them Changes" is: a song by American musician Thundercat. It was first released on June 18, "2015," as a single from his EP The Beyond / Where the Giants Roam. The track, which Thundercat co-wrote with producer Flying Lotus, was later included on Thundercat's full-length album Drunk, released on February 24, "2017."
A funk and psychedelic jazz song with elements of pop and R&B, "Them Changes" features a sampled beat from the 1977 song "Footsteps in the Dark" by the Isley Brothers. "Them Changes" was accompanied by a music video directed by Carlos LĂłpez Estrada. In October 2022, after a sped-up remix of the song went viral on TikTok, an official "Sped Up" version of the "song was released on digital platforms."
