"Give It On Up (If You Want To)" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Mtume

"Give It On Up (If You Want To)" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Mtume

Mtume is Basil Fearington, Edward Moore, Howard King, Hubert Eaves III, James Mtume, Philip Field, Raymond Jackson, Reggie Lucas and Tawatha

James Mtume and Reggie Lucas have also produced disco hits by Stephanie Mills ("You Can Get Over", "Put Your Body In It") - their ensemble under the name Mtume centered on the funk and soul infused within the time period of each production - their LP "In Search Of The Rainbow Seekers" from 1980 gave us the single "Give It On Up (If You Want To)" which was a hit on many dance floors offering their lovely blend of funk and sophisticated disco.

I have taken the track into the ReStructure mode and have extended and re-edited it's components - adding a few new drums and effects. The song's message is simple: release the pressure and feel the power of lie - that alone is enough for me to believe.
