After 8 years of people complaining about JSU trumpets I don’t think they care. They continue to produce nice clear sound/ their woodwind section is one of the best so why cover that up/ produce some of the best battles and it’s always JSU/SU SU/JSU clearly it’s not broke to them. At this point it is what it is.
If they trumpets start overpowering their woodwinds it will definitely takeaway that classical sharp clean sound woodwinds have It blends so well together. And I ain't saying no names but another band is definitely incorporating woodwinds more in their arrangements... and they should just go back to the old formula cuz it ain't it.
I feel like the trumpets get drowned out a bit by the rest of the band but if you hear them in person they do have a nice sound. Being so powerful on the low end hurts trumpets and woodwinds but I still love their sound as a whole
@@azarusjenkins8961 swear ta God lmao. They love to say "jackson you can't out southern southern" wait.. I thought they ain't have no trumpets 🤔 these people are backwards af lol
For the longest, Dega was like a bad trend that wouldn't go away. This the FIRST time I've EVER heard them hold their own with a top tier band. What stands out to me is their POWER. I love their trumpets. THAT BEING SAID...they still JSU lil cousin right now. JSU's combo of power, Tubas and arrangements put them out of Dega's reach.
Talladega didn’t plan to respond to anything JSU played… the reason they played a marching tune in the 2nd round was to take over and JSU ended up responding to Dega the rest of the battle
I try to tell people over and over. JSU is more polished band than Dega when it comes to their sound. Arrangements, phrasing, control, and execution is something Dega has to work on.
Great reaction my G. This was a close battle and Dega sounds so much better but like you I give JSU the edge because of their polished sound and arrangements. People get on JSU for their lack of screaming trumpets but it is done so that the woodwinds can shine and make them sound as clean as they do. Woodwinds add color and clarity to music. This is the reason they have such a big woodwind section every year.
Agree. However he feels jsu trumpets are weak. I can clearly hear the trumpets playing blended notes. Jsu trumpets is done with screaming until someone comes along and give jsu trumpets a reason to scream. There are plenty of songs from this year where jsu trumpets rips including one song from this event during the fieldshow where jsu played swv weak. For a while I thought jsu trumpet section got weak until I saw more upclose videos of jsu trumpets pulling back from screaming.
@@kendricksmith1459 bro have you even heard SU trumpets my nigga? Dude you said JSU trumpets done screaming until they hear real screamers when Dega trumpets was shittin the whole battle 😂 come on mane JSU trumpets thin asf until the last note & most of the time it’s a squeak not a scream .
@@RicoPendergrass lmao. I rep jsu/su. I know jsu weakness and I knows weakness. Not sure how u brought su into the conversation but I guess su needs its fan to inlcude it in every conversation. U have to be new to jsu/su. Jsu trumpets use to be known for screaming even shame su trumpets a couple times in the past prior to 2013. After 2013 jsu started to move away from screaming trumpets to allow the wood winds to be heard. This is why now u see a lot of comments on jsu woodwinds being loud and heard across the 50. Theres no way on earth that woodwinds are louder than trumpets. Its not even possible. Jsu doesn't allow its trumpets to be aggressive. Su trumpets never stops screaming as SU arranges 90% of its music around the trumpets. Jsu trumpets aren't competing with su or dega bcuz the bd arranges music to allow woodwinds which gives jsu a more distinct musical sound. This further differentiate jsu from su. Dega on the other hand shares jsu and su sound minus the musical piece. Alcorn does the same it just doesn't have the same numbers as dega. By the way alcorn and dega gave su the business before. Alcorn has given jsu the business before as well.
JSU with W, nothing Dega played moved me loud doesn’t win battles…first song JSU played Versus Dega First song arrangements, energy & song selection is everything
Bro you can’t sit there & say Dega hasn’t improved tho & that Rose in Harlem arrangement they played was fire , But overall a good battle but it wasn’t just a clear body for JSU very debatable
The Boom won with the first song! I also like how original Dega drum majors are🤦, we've never seen anything like that before. Shout-out to the Human Juke- Boom of Alabama!
@@Damariun224 lol damn. I was looking at a Dega alum’s reaction to the battle and the only thing they was worried about was how loud the bands were. I left. Didn’t even click on part 2.
I would’ve done the same. Dega sounds great. Much better than previous years! But they absolutely have to work on their arrangements, phrasing, control, and execution. They’re getting there. Bands like JSU and SU have figured out their sound and Dega has to do the same. If you close you eyes and listen throughout the battle you hear a clear difference in the bands in those areas I mentioned.
That was a battle we will be talking about for awhile i watched it three times I'm not a dega fan at all but they brought that heat that was a close battle hbcu you no!!!!!!!!
I don’t even know if KB Recognized Swoop Which Is One JSU Signature Songs @ 39:01! Dega arrangement was ok they executed it well but it would have been nice if JSU would have played it back!
This is the best battle of the season so far. Dega finally cleaned the sound up. It's still not there but night and day compared to years ago. JSU took this though. They are just more polished and the arrangements compliment the instrumentation better. Dega had stronger upper brass but not as clean. Dega put up a good fight though.
As hard as this is for me to admit as JSU fan…. It Was a tie through beginning and middle but I have to give dega the edge at the end… they seemed to have the momentum… they must have a new arranger because they’re writing to degas strengths… I think JSU underestimated dega… but if there’s gonna be a crank fest JSU will be ready.
@@BandHeadBoom gave them the win because they’re arrangements are generally trash… was very impressed with them in this battle in comparison to what Ive seen in the past…. Didn’t have to forward through degas songs… are they as clean and polished as the boom…. NO… just gave them edge because I was entertained by their song choice.
A J I listened to the video again…. And I think I was so excited for dega sounding better I was momentarily delusional …. The boom sounds amazing…. I wish I could take my comment back…lol
It just seems everyone has their own opinion and we as people can either do two things : agree or disagree 🤷🏽♂️. Brotha here had his own valid opinion. We have our own. At the end of the day this battle was the highlight of the season! Though some of us in the band head community don’t agree that some songs were allJSU. some ,like myself, can say that jsu had some songs, but sadly talladega has really stepped up a notch. this is the day that talladega got it’s name more deep into the band head minds. That’s a solid W for me tbh💪🏾
One of the reasons J5 stopped dancing while the band was in the stands in the early 2000s was because that's the time for the JSettes to shine. Dega DMs should give the same consideration to their girls.
Those Girls over at Dega got on my MF nerves! I used to vehemently HATE J5 for dancing too damn much! I wouldn't care how clean or good they are, shit just didn't sit right, especially when it felt like they did more dancing than directing! I think I had to be the one they took them notes from cause I would comment bout that shit ALL the damn TIME! Now here go Sis and the Sissettes kick pushing every 27 seconds! SITCHALL PASSIONETTE ASSES DOWN AND GIVE YO BOOTYHOLE A REST! Like WHAT are y'all doin?? I was too done with they ass! If y'all wanna start a male dance team, just say that!
Definitely can see the growth in dega arrangements are much better good sound. JSU gonna do what they do very consistent with they sound. It comes down to song selection and preference. Ima give this jsu
Both bands work very hard. It's nice to see that Dega is much-improved, they sound good. I agree with you that Dega pulled from another band's playbook, and sometimes doing too much. (And loud is not always the best quality).
Stop playing with DA BOOM! Dega was better than they’ve been in the past and they tried to get their lick back from the last crankfest when DA BOOM slapped the taste out they mouth with “MAKE NO SENSE”. Unfortunately Dega still got work to do to catch DA BOOM.
30:57 So your saying that one tuba who messed up in the beginning, minus missing upper brass, the energy died out until the end was a win? Dega woodwinds just needed to be tuned but the band was pretty balanced on most ends
Dega has a distinct sound and I'm diggin' it. Kiddos to their trumpets too, last video I thought they sound like trash but this one was much much much improved.. I think they also suffer from the massive low brass section just like Jackson. If you hold over or are the least bit out of sync the low brass will drown you out and make it sound muddy but this was excellent by both bands considering their instrumentation.. Bad part is you have to keep that instrumentation because that's where the unique sound comes from.. dega's mellos straight fire 🔥
Dega got some screamers on Trumpets something that JSU just haven't had fire a while. Let's not sleep on Dega Tubas, them boys be blowing. Something about DM's doing counts is tough for me to look over. Let the girls look cute and sexy
This battle was a intense battle, much prop for giving both bands love! However I have to question some of the things your said about JSU wining. True I see why you say arrangements but if all honesty what is a distinct way of saying what is a “collegiate” arrangement. A lot of songs now a days aren’t as musical as some were back then. Let alone the fact not every band wants to play the same song another school is playing. Other wise it wouldn’t be a battle of the bands but battle of best arrangements. Now In this battle honestly the battle seem more than in degas honor. Even jsu, su, tnsu fans are agreeing to dega winning. Jackson and dega both have minor issues to fix but truly this was degas highlight.
Over the years especially most recent years, most would say Dawg Team was #1 in the game, including me. They have been that Ace in the hole for JSU. Well, Them Mofo's Got Company this year.
I'm trying to figure out how they have the time for a stand battle this long in the middle of a BOTB. Also, how did they guy who used to promote a BOTB used to get it packed out like a JSU football game
What I don’t understand is why do people think that “Power and being loud” is the key to winning anything? That don’t mean shit if the arrangement trash, there is no control, and the balance is off like a mf! Dega has grown tremendously and sound hella different than the previous years and that’s wassup BUT y’all hella delusional if y’all think Dega won.. I was there in person! Dega was loud and so was JSU when they needed to be BUT Dega arrangements was ass 🤷🏽♂️🤣🤣 In person you see and hear everything! The video does no justice to what I actually witnessed..
Honestly to me i scored it 7-6 I don't give ties. Dega to me won the songs he gave as ties. Other than that JSU was smacking! Arrangements and sound is crisp but yeah I gave this one to Dega but that's an opinion lol I ain't marched in a band in about 10 years now so
It doesn’t matter how long u been playing, Talladega did that I was there . I love Jackson state that’s my team. But imma have to give this To Talladega. Just salute them and stop being soooo bias!!!
Because I don’t agree with you doesn’t mean I’m bias. It means I have an opinion smh. I actually gave Dega their props if you actually listened to what I was saying. They just need to step up their arrangement game.
You should start deducting for sloppy cut offs/hang overs in your videos. Power means nothing if players can’t control it. I’m speaking in general about all bands. One band, one sound.
@@Bbaybird21 yea but it’s facts they Claim there the best which there not when they literally have no upperbrass. And most of there songs sound similar.
Not a Dega fan but let's be honest when southern plays a song from another song like torture at TXSU nobody says they're copying them. Let's be fair here I just think they pulled a page from SU being petty in the moment.
@@KJ-gz9zr then you might as well go on and say that’s the entire swac really because they all do it. The only thing that’s different is how they arrange. And they not copying how the way JSU or Su arrange because that’s completely different.
@@jamyrondorsey7078 explain? Last I recall they were not only low volume on high brass, trumpets squeaking wrong notes, their Fraternity and Sorority were off step strolling, only relying on low brass and it felt empty. was their arrangement loud ? partially. Was there a clean sound? Sure because of the woodwinds. But at the end they all as a whole weren’t collectively confident in the song. Talladega may had a rough intro tuba wise but all parts were heard, and it was groovy, not chopped up.Simply put, dega may not have the time adversity that jsu has but they were confident and consistent.
I purposely waited to see this battle after the season was over, with that being said Dega has always been trash to me but 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 for improving but y’all still got a ways to go with them arrangements are kind of high school. JSU for the win 🏆
Man please DO NOT ever encourage J5 to dance nearly as much or as good as the Dega Powerpuff Guys!!! J5 has other things to do than to be making up 8-counts and scrubbin the ground! A routine, or two, I'll even give 3 songs at most, and sitchall asses TF down! Dancing a whole 30 to 40 minutes? Bihhh just be the Dega Diamonds at this point! A DM battle should be observed like a battle of the sections which doesn't last an entire Quarter or longer! You're not women. Sitchall 5, 6, 7, 8 asses down somewhere! If you wanna have a male dance team, just say that and sit them in the stands with they legs crossed, a bayang, and some Twirler boots, shat!
@@donaldjohnson925 was jsu full mello section at this event? I didnt count many. Funny thing is jsu had this battle in the bag. U got part of the band on the field dancing while the rest of the band giving dega da business. Lmao.
@@donaldjohnson925 got it. I heard him say that in a previous interview. I thought jsu had like 20 to 25 mellows. So u mean to tell me that jsu had missing mellow section and part of the band on field dancing while the rest of the band in the stands handling business. Omg.
2 people got JSU up and two people got tc up I need Steven holiday to come threw at this point I’m not mad at his opinion it’s just crazy but if tc was this close and some people got tc up who would want to see su smash them they nowhere near ready for su because they on another level let’s just skip it and go straight to crankfest it’s not gonna be su and jsu fans it will be dega fans as well since we gain so many

You haven't heard nothing yet. Dega came with victory in their mind and body.
I'm trying to figure out how they have the time for a stand battle this long in the middle of a BOTB. Also, how did they guy who used to promote a BOTB used to get it packed out like a JSU football game
Why do y’all hate on DEGA so much ???😂
Both bands blew themselves out after the first song smh good battle though. S/o to bonds over there at dega! He came a looonnnggg way #salute
DEF AGREE JSU GOT THEM BOYS!
What I don’t understand is why do people think that “Power and being loud” is the key to winning anything? That don’t mean shit if the arrangement trash, there is no control, and the balance is off like a mf! Dega has grown tremendously and sound hella different than the previous years and that’s wassup BUT y’all hella delusional if y’all think Dega won.. I was there in person! Dega was loud and so was JSU when they needed to be BUT Dega arrangements was ass 🤷🏽♂️🤣🤣 In person you see and hear everything! The video does no justice to what I actually witnessed..
Honestly to me i scored it 7-6 I don't give ties. Dega to me won the songs he gave as ties. Other than that JSU was smacking! Arrangements and sound is crisp but yeah I gave this one to Dega but that's an opinion lol I ain't marched in a band in about 10 years now so
That oh no battle he gave a tie when Dega Really won that round.
I think Dega was clashing with the echo of the stadium on that Drake tune
Nah that arrangement was 🚮🚮🚮
I HATE WHEN DRUM MAJORS GET IN FRONT THE BAND AND DANCE LIKE A DANCE TEAM 🤨😒
Exactly make it stop. I remember cheerleader squads had that bad habit. So glad that went away
They got on my MF nerves!
That battle was Savage. Talladega showed up...ok
that head busta Key arrangement sounds very familiar ?????
Only one band can play that lmao n y’all know it’s SU
So no one talking about KB putting the score up after Jackson yelled🗣 “you lost” 🤣😂😂
Man both bands outstanding outstanding
So you didn't hear that one person at 5:22 or 5:36 at Dega...deeeeduction..but omg helluva battle
Man, Dega is a little powder keg! They sound really clean. They just need a little more horsepower.
my boyfriend in the band at talladega so i be seeing the practice all the time. they been practicing 😂 that’s all they do😂
you gotta watch the Tuba Battle nd react to that also
Dega shittin on jsu tbr lmao I just watched it 😭🤣
MelloKingsInc wit the BIG FIGL energy 💪🏾
It doesn’t matter how long u been playing, Talladega did that I was there . I love Jackson state that’s my team. But imma have to give this To Talladega. Just salute them and stop being soooo bias!!!
Because I don’t agree with you doesn’t mean I’m bias. It means I have an opinion smh. I actually gave Dega their props if you actually listened to what I was saying. They just need to step up their arrangement game.
@@KBThaBandhead Jackson State probably still one of the only colleges that uses Baritones instead of euphonium
@@dannymoffett9690 I actually like baritone over euphonium. They sang better if u know what I mean
Dega on they ass tho.. Dega need better arrangements but JSU not much better, that's why it's a close battle
Jsu underestimated Dega if jsu would’ve came with that energy they had against pv it wouldn’t have been this close
What was the first song JSU played?
Family ties
You should start deducting for sloppy cut offs/hang overs in your videos. Power means nothing if players can’t control it. I’m speaking in general about all bands. One band, one sound.
Dega trumpets 🔥🔥🔥
Talladega trombones sounded aweful on too sexy 😭
How does dega have a band if they don’t have football?
Both of them are blowing
At 37:15 it was the other way around for me i had no idea that Jackson played the same song but I knew what talladega played instantly
One thing that’s undeniable u can hear Trashadegas Trumpets but u can’t hear JStanks 🤣
Yeah, and that same attitude is what’s holding their band back. They sound much better than previous years but it’s not about being just loud.
Who cares about the trumpets tbh ..its a reason they trumpets not that strong and how long its been that people been saying that ..they know ….
@@Bbaybird21 yea but it’s facts they Claim there the best which there not when they literally have no upperbrass. And most of there songs sound similar.
There tubas carry that band buts it’s not gonna save them forever
@@Sagacious_X Just stop bro Boom always gonna be #1💀
I still think Dega need to stop being copy cats
Big Facts
If your band can’t handle being petty say that
Not a Dega fan but let's be honest when southern plays a song from another song like torture at TXSU nobody says they're copying them. Let's be fair here I just think they pulled a page from SU being petty in the moment.
@@Unknownepic6991 when I speak on Dega being copy cats I’m talking about their entire style. I’m not talking about this battle
@@KJ-gz9zr then you might as well go on and say that’s the entire swac really because they all do it. The only thing that’s different is how they arrange. And they not copying how the way JSU or Su arrange because that’s completely different.
Round 2 was Dega played a real song
They fumbled on a classic! 👎🏾👎🏾 not it
Ayeeee #KBGANGGG 🥶🍦❄️
THE SHOW BELONGS TO JSU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sadly they didn’t execute it like it was theirs imo
@@King-ud9dl it was executed better than Dega’s 💀 and it sounded pretty damn good to me
@@jamyrondorsey7078 explain?
Last I recall they were not only low volume on high brass, trumpets squeaking wrong notes, their Fraternity and Sorority were off step strolling, only relying on low brass and it felt empty. was their arrangement loud ? partially. Was there a clean sound? Sure because of the woodwinds. But at the end they all as a whole weren’t collectively confident in the song. Talladega may had a rough intro tuba wise but all parts were heard, and it was groovy, not chopped up.Simply put, dega may not have the time adversity that jsu has but they were confident and consistent.
The Oh No round definitely went to TC
I purposely waited to see this battle after the season was over, with that being said Dega has always been trash to me but 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 for improving but y’all still got a ways to go with them arrangements are kind of high school. JSU for the win 🏆
That first song jsu played omg !!!
Why do y’all want them to be a carbon copy. I think it great they sound like themselves
Second song Td played was weak. Jukebox play it better
Man please DO NOT ever encourage J5 to dance nearly as much or as good as the Dega Powerpuff Guys!!! J5 has other things to do than to be making up 8-counts and scrubbin the ground! A routine, or two, I'll even give 3 songs at most, and sitchall asses TF down! Dancing a whole 30 to 40 minutes? Bihhh just be the Dega Diamonds at this point!
A DM battle should be observed like a battle of the sections which doesn't last an entire Quarter or longer! You're not women. Sitchall 5, 6, 7, 8 asses down somewhere! If you wanna have a male dance team, just say that and sit them in the stands with they legs crossed, a bayang, and some Twirler boots, shat!
As a Dega alumni I agree with this message 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
Are those jsu band members on the field dancing during the show?
Yep
@@donaldjohnson925 was jsu full mello section at this event? I didnt count many. Funny thing is jsu had this battle in the bag. U got part of the band on the field dancing while the rest of the band giving dega da business. Lmao.
@@kendricksmith1459 🤣🤣🤣 facts. But no the whole Mello section was not there. I heard Dr. Little say that they a few covid cases in the band.
@@donaldjohnson925 got it. I heard him say that in a previous interview. I thought jsu had like 20 to 25 mellows. So u mean to tell me that jsu had missing mellow section and part of the band on field dancing while the rest of the band in the stands handling business. Omg.
@Darius Morris okay, no affiliation with the band?
Do Alabama State University Liberian girl we smashed that
4:44 his face hahahahahahaha
Dega is not backing off at all
Dega came to fight hell yeah
Agreed with your reaction!
What song was that Dega play at 14:00 ??????? Anybody ?!
Rose in Harlem
Fire arrangement dega
2 people got JSU up and two people got tc up I need Steven holiday to come threw at this point I’m not mad at his opinion it’s just crazy but if tc was this close and some people got tc up who would want to see su smash them they nowhere near ready for su because they on another level let’s just skip it and go straight to crankfest it’s not gonna be su and jsu fans it will be dega fans as well since we gain so many
Oooooooh dega come on yes
