Bandhead REACTS to Jeff Davis High Marching Out

[@queenslyric800]

See him as a drum major now at Alabama State. Let’s not forget the other drum majors getting it in. He always gives the credit.

[@lolitahorn-fletcher4090]

Thanks for letting me know!

[@maryw246]

All of those kids are so talented. Amazing band!

[@script2vids]

Vanilla Funk has a very focused look in his eyes as if he has an alter ego when he performs with the band. Outside the band, it has a very subdued or shy/humble character.

[@graceandpeace4414]

That band can put some college bands to shame!

[@amyk6403]

The best thing about him is his gaze....it's determined!

[@barbaramartin6121]

As an older black woman that young man is excellent as a head drummer . Now he's moved on to college now very good excellent . ❤❤❤❤❤❤ his team was a great team in high school they were all on point teamwork make a DreamWork

[@rncine]

I have seen many H.S.bands and these 4 DM are the best all around, they are incredible. I like that they wear simple school outfits as their uniforms and not flashy color uniforms that deflect from their performance.

[@mitsuomits9077]

Ah ok, so this was not just practicing before hand lol well now I know.

[@beaulah_califa9867]

THEY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE UNIFORMS BUT HAVE TO WEAR T-SHIRTS AND SWEATS B/C THEUR SCHOOL DISTRICT/SCHOOL can NOT afford uniforms.

[@rncine]

@@beaulah_califa9867 No No, it’s so hard to move with those polyester uniforms 😂 As talented as this entire band is, they will probably get their wish real soon.

[@punkiepinkies7948]

😂basic at best, you should come to Savannah GA bc all their public high schools bands wld make these kids look like amateur's for certain!

[@sherrieromine8624]

He is fabulous! I'd be proud to have him for my son! 😊

[@Dark_Shadow_Support]

You can tell a high school that puts work into their music program you dont put no mess on the field and the work shows

[@katyp5914]

This level of talent at a high school is mind-blowing!💥💥💥💥💥💥🥁🥁🥁🥁👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@yourpalfred]

Amazing dedication, athleticism and artistry from high schoolers! Dang, so impressive. I'm humbled!

[@terryharris367]

My son is a member of the Sonic Boom. He was in JD’s band too.

[@u.s.n.retired1995]

Your reactions are priceless. You give credit where credit is due. Great job.

[@dramagramatales3145]

I know high school band director who would.believe they were in heaven to have that band...those kids are fire

[@mmw55122]

Ok, I confess to be a white gramma but I think this is awesome! What I particularly love was his Lieutenant appeared to direct the drum section so when they "got down" that lieutenant was in charge. That is the way it should be. Ultimately the band members should rule the band! This was inspirational!!

[@PiNkSpRinkLe1]

I have been looking up videos with Justin. He is simply a great dancer. I saw one video where he had a little solo as a trumpet player his freshman year. In another one he is doing Magic Mike moves. When you couple that with precision, leadership, and marching, you have a great combo. So entertaining.

[@lindafoster2141]

He is head drum major at Alabama State now!!!!

[@janeblacket-darkroomdivaph5865]

I'm Australian and don't understand this at all... we don't dothat here... but I LOVE it! I can't get enough of Vanilla Funk and his team ❤❤❤

[@beaulah_califa9867]

I checked out other years at Jeff Davis - drum major & band. Every year they had super incredible drum majors. I mean Jackson State who? They better watch out!

[@SIRENTHEROCKER]

Justin is light skinded

[@joycecarlgren7275]

Stop......he isn't TALENT COMES IN ALL FORMS AND SHADES

[@samjones6557]

Dallas Skyline is legit. My kid attends a PWS in district and when we played them our fans were rushing our own band off field just to see that soul food seasoning Skyline was dropping.

[@dwdvids]

That band is kicking. They have a nice sound.

[@LindaR423]

I love to watch drum majors doing their thing. These guys who were once at Jefferson Davis take it to a whole new level as far as I'm concerned.

[@JeremyESmith-rj9gg]

This Young Guy is fantastic. You can tell he's having FUN and His classmates respect him! In one other video I saw Vanilla Funk in he played horn so you can tell he's a versatile Band memeber

[@isaiahbangura4421]

Justin goes to Alabama State and plays trumpet.

[@AUDACITY4Uphotographer]

He's now a drum major for this fall season.

[@isaiahbangura4421]

[@jeffreydrummerboiprince9866]

He should have went to JSU!!!

[@mitsuomits9077]

Lol I would have love to be a part of something like this... but there in front dancing... or a drummer lol This is so so so cool I discovered this existed maybe like 3 years ago because of a joke Gary Owen said about Clinton, since then I what this kind of videos from time to time.

[@dwdvids]

Reminds me of JSU J5. Thy would great at JSU.

[@judyfradger3339]

Yep skyline march like jsu too. I'm starting to realize the highschools mirror the colleges. Like soc to gramling. Gramling band used to practice at soc when the battle of the band and pv and gramling game comes

[@Polborausaina]

Great job these boys. Vanilla Funk os the leader.

[@AngelaJames-jr2lo]

L😂ve that young man

[@joannebest1713]

Holy Moly.....

[@Triggerhippie70]

Listen vanilla Funk is the shit, but I’m gonna say this, he gets a lot of props on social media as he should, but you gotta give it to the entire troupe!

[@kathleenrawley3350]

Do you ever have reactions to college bands or even Drum and Bugle Corps or Even marching band competitions, Drum and Bugle Corp competitions as well

[@beaulah_califa9867]

just look at the videos KB has posted. I don't even understand why you posted this question. I don't think he's covered Bugle Corps comp. He focuses on Black Coll & Univ.

[@raynardwilliams9522]

Honestly….. For me…. Justin was better in high school than what they do at ASU …. They barely even dance like this…. Justin should consider entering the transfer portal for bands and go to Jackson State. He can do it. He’s got what it takes.

[@quanmoore1383]

you should jackson state battle of the band 2015 plzz you want regret it💯💯💯

[@leeauslander8305]

I wonder why he didnt go to jackson state? Not showing off his talent where he is now 😞

[@richardmiddleton8511]

💯 Alabama State's drum majors have a rigid style of march...they don't do anything at all to showcase Justin's versatility. It's funny that the performance style that made him famous is nowhere to be found at Alabama State

[@sherriray6864]

I’m just assuming, but he probably went to ASU because of the TUITION factor!! ASU is an in-state school for him, so his tuition is far less than it would be at JSU, which is out of state way in Jackson, Mississippi. He’s doing his thing at ASU, though! We do what we have to do to reach our educational goals and fulfill our extracurricular dreams. ❤️🥰👍🏾 #ToTheSky #ThatBoyJohn
