Back in the day, I listened to this battle religiously. I can't even do it anymore 😅. I have a headache now after finishing this video. I love how the arrangements have evolved since then 💪And the tubas...MOST IMPROVED SECTION EVER!

[@aJohnsonNO]

[@EarthAngel504]

@KBThaBandhead Txsu arrangement of SKIN is OLDER THAN SOUTHERN's! Txsu have been playing that particular arrangement since the 80's, Southern didn't start playing their arrangement till 2002 at the bayou classic. History lesson

[@mceasermcmc]

Awww Bro Stop STOP! Please STOP!! IN 88 THE JUKES WAS THE FIRST BAND TO PLAY SKIN arrangement by DR Roy Johnson. How I know I WAS IN THAT BAND!

[@MrPesante2008]

You capping on SU not playing Skin until 2002 LOL. SU been playing Skin since the 80's!

[@KBThaBandhead]

SMH.. The 🧢 is real I see. LOL

[@travismaurice6308]

Actually Texas Southern started playing Skin when Richard F. Lee and Darryl Singleton came over from Howard university in 93/94 after Ben Butler had to step down because of the Tokyo incident. If you go and listen to Howard’s original version (Written by Dr. Adolf Wright) then compare it to Texas Southerns (Written by Mr. Singleton), they definitely have a lot of similarities and a few differences. The chopped and screwed part was added to it to give it a more Houstonian cultural feel which was originated by the late Houston mix-tape artist “DJ Screw”. I personally love the arrangement. By the time 2011 came around , Texas Southern wasn’t playing skin because southern had it in their book. It literally became a part of tradition particularly for homecoming. Notice you’ll never see Texas Southern playing skin before October. TSU and SU saw eachother in November that year (2011)

[@MrPesante2008]

@@travismaurice6308 actually Dr. Adolf Wright wrote Skin for HU. I was a freshman in 95 at HU, and HU was playing that before that year. The first time I head SU play it was in 87.

[@jcam4083]

Songs was just different around that time !! That we don’t speed smack a nigga in the face -

[@mrbriancyres2063]

That band director was mr Lawrence Jackson

[@demetrithornton3245]

Its crazy what TXSU did with that size

[@griffielliott279]

That skin was for power. I love the arrangement. It was called a chopped & screw it's a Houston dang. The first song was called "Oh My"

[@brianclark4143]

Yes Mr. J was Where Nathan , Brian and Kedric Get It From... Mr. Jackson Brought Dat Energy and They Kept It Going.. Mr. Lawrence Jackson Was The Director of Bands That Year He Replaces Doc

[@matrixmisfit1987]

You can see Mr J yelling, "Ish Warshiiiime!"🤣

[@ccharlie05]

All I gotta say is.......The Jukes hit different when Haymer was at the podium......👀👀👀👀👀

[@reginaldblouin2769]

Real different

[@JaylinA.J.94]

😫😫mane that nigga need to come BACK!

[@desmondallen9722]

Yea cause Haymer from pre Katrina. That's when Southern was really Southern.

[@ccharlie05]

@@JaylinA.J.94 you ain't never lied!!!

[@jj3a1]

Don’t start this dumb shit. SU is still SU, no matter who is directing. Haymer’s arrangements are elementary compared to Todd’s and Taylor’s.

[@BionicMusic]

Best battle in history idc

[@dolodaero]

That was back when TXSU saxophones 🎷 didn't wear neck straps and Simmons was on btone @ SU

[@jcam4083]

Murk City Classic was dub from Houston. Another Houston nickname.

[@ap_music4947]

Classic!!🔥🔥

[@Csonic23]

I felt the heart and the heat from both bands. Mmmmm

[@TacticalG5.7]

Finally

[@fountainmedia4683]

SU for the WIN! 🔥🔥

[@jaylyn6672]

it’s a new era, generation. the Jukebox damn sure don’t sound like this nomore😔

[@jj3a1]

Blame Haymer. He changed the sound by switching out the tubas and switching the baritones for Euphos. 90s and early 2000s Jukebox was the realest

[@Csonic23]

Hey. Thanks so much for your videos. This truly hits that… spot. I bet you know what I mean.

[@j.l.t.5740]

That was none other than Lawrence “Mr. J” Jackson that directed And Then What

[@macnificentjohnson7311]

They lungs gone come out the horns 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@langdon32fat]

[@terrydunn8133]

[@jheht2000]

TXSU could’ve murked SU with that Big Moe but it was falling apart.. TXSU & PV knows better….you can’t let another school not from H-town play our artist better than us 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@coachhinessgms2573]

I remember EA SPORTS uses TSU NECK in a college basketball game

[@mrbriancyres2063]

Say my brother yes sir that was a battle but you already know who won the battle

[@Rayjayda1]

That Skin arrangement was 💩 respectfully 😂

[@tbey74]

you crazy

[@fountainmedia4683]

Yea TSU version of Skin sound like CHIT!

[@funtimeswithraynanci4596]

I would to here Southern play “I Need Doctor Today”!!! Ooooooweeee

[@MrPesante2008]

Yes the Tubas has come up. Mainly because they were on them cheap fiber glasses. So glad Haymer switched to the metal tubas. Also KB, people forget Haymer was writing most of SU fire arrangements after Cornell Knight retired from SU. Simmons and Taylor definitely were inspired heavily by Haymer with their arrangements.

[@travisjohnson2872]

Lord have mercy...smdh...bro this wasnt a battle to be graded its a all time classic battle...its called murk city because at the time SU 2011-2012 was the best band editions they had since 99 they was destroying anything moving in their path them 2 years txsu in this 2011 zero was the only band to go toe to toe with them boys eapecially for being that small....go to the original video it has over 200k views and read the comments PLEASE people were pleased with the fact that ol small txsu was holding they own against SU...this will forever be an all time classic 0 qtr battle...and i repeat nobody and i mean nobody came even close to su these years only txsu stood up on dem boys

[@macnificentjohnson7311]

This wasn't even no competition for SU and its still not. TXSU just only been ok to me. They wasn't ever up there like that.
