I’m so glad you used another media team on this one. I’m a SU fan!!! However Fam Fans have been talking about how they think Garrett was doctoring the footage to make SU sound louder. What’s the excuse now??? Great Footage Marching Sport!!!

I'm not sure if he edits it to sound louder but both bands each week sound louder on different videos.

My personal preference is FAMU’s sound. I like being able to hear every instrument as opposed to just a few. FAMU doesn’t have to change its style, neither does Southern! They are completely different styles. If you are waiting for FAMU to sound like Southern… you gonna be waiting forever.

FAMU is one of the CLEANEST bands on Earth!! They have a symphonic sound with power behind it. These two bands have met in the past, last time being in 2019 - and their battles are ALWAYS worth it. One thing though, if you don't like marches FAMU is not for you.

Like we have to tell everybody that does not know FAMU’s tradition...the first song was not even part of the 5th quarter. It’s one of our fight songs after a win and when they let the Head Coach come up and conduct. Also, FAMU does not and has never had dancers. That’s the Flag Corp you see in front of the band.

@@jolandaallen5866 Yes, they are hard to play because it's one person playing 4, (quads); 5, (quints), or 6, (sexteps), voices. It adds extra voices to the drumline, so you can have a counter rhythm to the snares/ have them play melodic passages, have them play conga or bongo rhythmic patterns, tune them up for a soprano voice over the snares, or tune them lower for better blending with the toms or the bass drums. 👍🏾

No, SU can’t. They struggle on marches; while ballads show their weakness and expose their weak percussion section and lack of musicianship.

[@wellsincewerehere773]

Sometimes and this is just my opinion or analogy! Sometimes you have to adapt but remain who u are at the core like the movie drum line he had to not forget who he was but realize what they could be. They play well but not soulfully so. Musicianship comes from emotions not knowing all the scales, notes, or reading music. It’s the emotion that’s poured into it. That’s the main reason when the pwi marched on field with sheet music I was like ugh. We learn music then bring it to life. Not saying famu uses music but hopefully u get the point of why change is necessary not compromising

[@rooseveltb9892]

@@wellsincewerehere773 great analogy and I truly understand what you are saying but that doesn’t answer my question regarding other SWAC bands going to another conference. Tennessee State, NCA&T and Hampton are not in an HBCU conference but they remain true to who they are. The main thing that is being said is that FAMU needs to change because if they don’t, they are going to get cranked on every weekend. I’m probably in the minority but I enjoy both playing styles.

[@michaelwinters9552]

This was a lackluster battle.

[@ryanknight7221]

I’m half way through. I’m at spend my life by SU. First of all. YOU A REAL BAND HEAD, SHOT OUT TO YOU. You all the way in point. But rewatch if you have time. Those SU directors knew who they was going up against. Lil old school history. You right. Nobody really checks for FamU stand battles. Why. Because they shit be bland. BUT. Back in the day from SU to anybody in the swac. They didn’t want to see fam. WHY. Because they would right the WHOLE DAMN SONG OUT. Key changes, all that. FAreal Lil Bro. It was a lil embarrassing (musically) cause you know in the SWAC we play wit a lot of soul and chop songs up. FAM new who they was going up against to. WHY. Cause SU done damn near mastered the quality and character for the SWAC as far as arrangements for power and quality of music. Aight. Back to the battle.

[@beaulah_califa9867]

for the life of me, I can't discover the point you were trying to make. Are you saying at one point in the past (like under Dr. Greggs, SU was cared of FAMU???? Keep hallucinating.

[@ryanknight7221]

Yes. That’s exactly what I’m saying. You can’t be from my error. First I’m just gone start with the numbers. Southern ain’t never been in the numbers with fam an I can’t spell halusinate but the tapes don’t lie. Be foreal Fam was once called the marching cd 💿 I ain’t even a die hard FamU fan but I know them boys couldn’t be fucked wit musically. Not taking any credit from Greg’s but them damn trumpets ain’t never been enough for Fam in the 90s late 80s. Greg’s built that program to standerd in like 93 94 and they fell off in the late 90s. Go do some research I been listening to battles since MF was recording them on they walk mens and passing them out through the band community. The best battles is on VHS 📼 not KZbin.

Check out Southern halftime show bro !!

[@geezygohard1487]

Big Facts!! Yo KB check out that halftime show bro

[@cinemuh]

It's disappointing that the focus has been shifted away from field shows to stands competition. By shifted I mean the main focus. Both these band has been know to have good field entertainment. Famu changed their style to that of Big 10 style years ago. The Jukebox has remained a drilling machine and is still the only marching band on the planet to pull off the halftime score for the fans. This upcoming week, I will look for originality. If Jackson State recycles ♻️ one of the Jukebox's drills, that's an automatic loss imo. 1. Originality 2. Degree of difficulty of the drill 3. Execution 4. Enjoyment of the dance routine by the crowd.

[@grandpa09s]

That first song FAMU played was their fight song cause they won the game.

[@patricktriplett6927]

This a battle. Play that before the 5th. Dont play during the 5th an expect to get a W. Stop it or stop saying famu can compete with swac bands in zero or 5th qtr its obvious famu can't compete whether the fans want to hear it or not.

Having balance and intonation is square?!?! 😂 I have never been to any festival or music competition that says that that’s square. No that’s the reason FAMU has a Sudler award and the rest of the SWAC doesn’t.

[@MrPesante2008]

@@jayperk5021 uhhh, being square is based on style of play. Yes they are very square playing hip hop and r&b songs the way they play it. This is marching band, not concert or symphonic band. Know the difference. Then u bring a white man award that's been bias for years where only PWC only get? Famu won it in 1985. So u mean to tell me Famu was on good enough one time? Or no other legendary HBCU bands never won it? Yeah ok. That award don't mean nothing to us. Nice try, but try harder 😉 😜 😅

SU didn't have a tempo problem on da Marvin Gaye song go listen to the actual song both those parts are stacked on the song and then when the vocals start it clears up

Nawl. Tempo fukd up.. look at the people in the stands tryna guide the tempo.. Cmon dawg. Southern aint perfect they have lots of fuk ups. They just good at editing..

Good eye...I didn't see that...just purely listening it sounded like the guitar stack on da actual song to me

[@sordidC]

They aren't stacked on that track for Marvin. Those vocals are layered and have the old non digital reverb pan. Way more complex than a "stack" with chords.

@ m white man you ain't lying in the late 70s early 80s I thought famu was the shit and they still doing and playing the same shit boring

[@MansaBC]

Musicians of what? SU sucks at playing ballads. They suck and playing marches. There percussion section plays beginning band stuff. They are always out of tune. But as long as they are playing the current Hip Hop songs as loud as they can that means good? Y’all can that. Considering Hip Hop is made from beats that are looped. Which explains southern easy arrangements full of half notes. No musicians takes SU serious. Which is why they have yet to gain any marching band awards from the marching band establishment.

[@Optimistictdb]

Bruhhhhh you like that sloppy sound. Lol

[@beaulah_califa9867]

Why does FAMU have 7 quints? They sound like clicks or like someone is knocking at the door. NOW, I'm not trying to throw shade but I thought the FAMU dancers where wearing turbans. LMAO Whenever I think of those dancers, they put a smile on my face.
