Yeah TxSU laid an egg and i was concerned when the schedule came out and it had JSU and SU back to back weeks. But lets not act we didnt know after BoomBox that no one touching JSU this year. 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@BaimaTV]

JSU’s first song was “Back To The Future”

[@coreybeard3459]

❤they rocked that.

[@kingbigshot3281]

KB, love your vids man. I wait for your reactions every week. But sometimes you don’t realize the musicality of what your hearing. Most of the time your spot on! But there’s times, with not only with JSU, that you don’t realize what the song is or what the band is doing music wise and you think it’s a mistake. Like different time signatures within songs. Many time you say it’s tempo issues when in reality, they killed it. I hope your understand what I’m saying? Or someone will.

[@msmarie9253]

I definitely agree

[@portcitypizzle]

Agreed

[@travisjohnson2872]

I def agree and its not jus him its a lot of reaction guys...music is so wordly large so its very subjective to get alot of concepts especially if u never heard that type of style

[@jerrygowen1604]

I think you are correct. What I hear, may be different from what someone else will hear. I think that is what makes music great. I think people forget that there are more styles than just crank songs or drill songs. @@travisjohnson2872

[@deontetyler7469]

I Agree I Kaint Believe He Didn’t Know That I Can Love You By Mary J Blige N Lil Kim Texas Southern Played And It Sounded Exactly Like The Song! I gave that song a 8 out of 10 because they lost energy as if they were tired.

[@thenamejosh_2176]

JSU just another W. Kinda getting tired of them mopping the floor on errbody and not have an actual battle. But I’ll definitely take it 😂😂We #1!!!

[@askwhy0511]

The funny part about this is they played the Jackson 5 song the same exact way in a previous video and you had nothing but praise…

[@therealmccoy2004]

Bruh. I swear it sounded like txsu had different sheet music for every player.. jackson just pure heat. I think JSU arranged that jackson 5 piece like that from the beginning. It was too together to be a mess up..

[@deonhayes7043]

You are correct that’s the way the song was arranged. It wasn’t a mess up

[@tyresequince6895]

Yeah I've heard how the song was played

[@BruteChews]

Some was off but it’s hard to tell. You’ll hear it if you listen to them play it in the spring.

[@doctormark8418]

"Do y'all even gotta play back?" Funniest shit i done heard all season 😂😂😂

I was like ohhhhh shit Man Of Steel/Snyder Cut Justice League them. I wasn’t expecting that. But then Jackson State Plays Back to the Future and it was over after that because it was just sooo powerful and clean not to mention that round 3. Ain’t no coming back from that 😂

[@matrixmisfit1987]

Man Id be wrong not to give props to Jackson State -- salute to the Directors and the program for holding it down for all the fans of music, they are clear as day, the attacks are punchy and clean. The arrangements, Top Tier and dare I say more creative than their arch rivals in Southern! 🩵💛 Ima need that boom box round 2 asap😏

[@ADIDASleo06]

We need to see the director's face expressions. Cause in my days of singing in my church choir and we messed up, if the congregation had seen my director's facials they would feel bad for us

[@hailstate601webster7]

Gotta blame the fans who gassed TXSU (Motion included) up last year to thinking they could really hang with Da Boom. They weren’t ready and it showed.

That how the woodwinds part is in the song

[@derektaylor1874]

I like your honest opinion.

[@ljtheartist]

Round 3 you can see the TXSU trumpet player that made the mistake right in the middle ....this was a clinic for Jackson and a recruitment tape

[@awesomefan1678]

I was highly disappointed with TSU in this battle. I thought this was the band that would bring their A game against the SBOTS but it was just the opposite. That TSU 3rd song was so bad until anything JSU played was right. In my opinion, it was JSU-5 TSU-0. This was another knockout for the Sonic Boom. Dr. Little is on a mission💙🤍💙🤍

[@organizednoise9614]

I feel the same!

[@Funk_Reactions]

I think we all do.

[@RodneyPlayer-qr5pw]

I told them niggaz jsu is #1 in the swac this year. Su is #2. I'm a big su fan but I feel that jsu has gotten so very good this year and has been so consistent it's been amazing for them. They're sound is incredible. Tsu started off good this season and held they're on till now.

[@USVeteran01]

I noticed every time he say jsu need to clean up something it be there first time playing it and most they just learned the week prior to. Lol

[@KBThaBandhead]

Just like every other band… 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@jbofficial_3696]

That’s how the beginning of that song goes in the third round for Jackson it’s the jackson 5 I wanna be where you are song

[@ViewYOUTv]

TXSU first sound was the BLACK PANTHER THEME

[@AlonzoWolfe]

Turn volume up on JSU too

[@Big_Bake]

Came to this page just to see your reaction around that 18 min mark 😭

[@JesseVealIII]

I am very surprised you gave Txsu a round. I think this battle was waaay closer than folks are trying to make it out to be. Outside the 3rd round mess up i think Txsu just lacked energy and didn't call great songs. But JSU didn't clean sweep them like a lot of biased folks are trying to claim. This was by far Txsu worst performance of the gear, but JSU has been on point and calling superior songs against everybody all season.

[@carltheyoda2155]

TSU's first song was from the Man of Steel (Superman) soundtrack.

[@jsavageify]

I though JSU did a great job with “I wanna be where you are “ by the Jackson 5 .🤷🏾‍♂️

[@USVeteran01]

Omg that third round was a hot mess lol

[@Chimalayas2000]

I’m proud TXSU got that last round against JSU with that Nirvana song. Really wished TXSU could’ve played Revenge against them like against SU. Also, I’m shocked that they both got a tie in deductions during the 3rd round 😅. No matter cuz TXSU won a round and I’m glad 🤭 🌊

We really gotta work on these attacks and releases just overall. Half the power comes from in tune attacks. The whole song fluff by txsu was more sad to me, because I KNOW they have a good program. There's no excuses.

1st TSU song was awesome. Motion killed it too. Just because - you - didn't know the song or its orchestrations doesn't mean it wasn't ready for presentation.

[@marlonflowers2612]

The feeling must be super cringy playing a song and not knowing it at all and still having to get through it!! 🤦🏾‍♂️😩🗑️🗑️ Man!!! I think it's even worse as a drummer knowing we executing and the rest of band letting us down!!! Seems like both bands in the deduction round (3rd round) had used all if their brain power on the 1st 2 rounds!! JSU bounced back though. 11.12.23 is going to be interesting. Southern hasn't shown me anything that makes me believe the outcome between the 2 is gonna be any different. 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️ And I'm team SU.
