Composition

Nina West said of the EP, which is named after the American actor: "With John Goodman, it's a comedy album of five songs around themes of people around my size. Lol! Then it also has this idea of pop culture and celebrity. The first song[ sic ] is about Sarah Huckabee Sanders so I am using my drag scene to be political, but also having fun with it in the process." [2] The comedy EP focuses on politics and popular culture. The music video for "Hucks", a song about Sarah Huckabee Sanders, features Aurora Sexton, Jackie Beat, and Sherry Vine. [3]
