Bad Mutha Goose and the Brothers Grimm - Be Somebody is a motivational woke EP/single filled with messages that a motivational speaker would say. The EP is filled with uplifting themes with positivity inside of them with a funky instrument ensemble. Bad Mutha Goose will kind of remind you Sam Salter in some way. Production was done by Joe "The Butcher" Nicolo and Tim Kerr. Tim Kerr and Yoggie Mosgrove were the brains and bread behind Bad Mutha Goose. Be Somebody was their legendary EP that was released on vinyl in 1987.


Be Somebody was the song that everybody played at house parties in Austin back in the 80s. Be Somebody is the lead single and title song of this funky vernacular EP/single. Be Somebody is an educational taste of motivational philosophy. Most of the messages in this song are quotes that a motivational speaker would say. Be Somebody is about being someone and just being yourself. You don't ever hear this type of funk in music anymore in this day and time.

To set your mind right. Just be original. Just let you be you. Be Somebody! Get out there and do something! It's better than doing nothing at all really. There is a minority of us of that have mental power to not be spineless zombies. It’s just us and laziness that holding us and each other back. We’ve come a long way but we still have a long way to go.

We all know that everyone in life has ups and downs. The only way to keep your head above water is to set your mind right. So try a little harder. When times are tough, you gotta get tougher. Set your mind right if you have envision a dream you want to achieve. You gotta keep pushing along in life. Just let yourself be original and don't be fake with the rest of the people in modern society.

One Man One Vote is the song that encourages people to go out and vote before all our rights are taken away. The song serves as an antithesis to political oppression.

Jump The Funk is the classic 80s funk jam that made the Bad Mutha Goose band famous in the music scene and in music of Austin otherwise. Jump The Funk had house parties in Austin rockin' out back in the day. If you were educated and informed about the social scene and party scene here in Austin, Texas, then you’d know about this song. This is one of those party on the boat dock at the top of the boat jams. This jam will make you want to get up and dance!

I rate this EP 5/5*****!!
