CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Devon (Nick Cannon) shows his stuff to Sean (Leonard Roberts), but Sean's got experience and humility on his side.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Drumline brings the world of "show-style" marching bands (popular at traditionally black, Southern colleges) to the big screen for the first time. The story, by Shawn Schepps, was inspired by the high school drumline experiences of executive producer/executive music producer Dallas Austin. Devon (Nick Cannon of Nickelodeon's The Nick Cannon Show) is a Harlem drummer who earns a full scholarship to the fictional Atlanta A&T University. There, his talent gets the attention of the school's embattled musical director, Dr. Lee (Orlando Jones), who puts his students' education and appreciation for musical tradition ahead of the marching band's popularity. Devon's brashly egotistical attitude doesn't endear him to Lee, whose slogan for the band is "One band, one sound," or to the drumline's disciplined captain, Sean (Leonard Roberts, late of TV's Buffy the Vampire Slayer). Devon has more success with the dance captain of the marching band, Laila (Zoe Saldana, who played a ballet dancer in Center Stage), a Southern belle who's won over by Devon's confidence. Sean feels threatened by Devon's talent, and his attitude, so when he learns that Devon can't read music, he uses the information to his advantage. With the band facing their archrival at a huge marching band competition, Dr. Lee has to decide whether to allow the brilliant drummer to perform, despite his attitude. Devon has to prove that he can show his skills while still being part of the team. Drumline was directed by Charles Stone III (Paid in Full), and features cameo appearances by musical artists Blu Cantrell and Petey Pablo.

One of my absolute favorite movies! Classic early 2000 movies and also the acting was great. Nick cannon can really act when he has the right role

[@christianjames9667]

This movie is responsible for sparking a huge increase in band scholarships and people getting into the band in high-school One of the more underrated movies in that regard. You don't get movies made like this anymore that can have that impact. A lot of young African Americans took up the band in high-school and got full-ride scholarships because of this movie. I remember bring it on had a similar impact on cheerleading throughout the country where competition cheer went through the roof.

[@ayyson3000]

If you watch the entire movie again, notice how the pitch of of Sean and Devon's drum are slightly different and how that small detail stays consistent throughout the movie. That's classic film making at it's finest.

[@superadam64]

No. That’s called laziness. The drums should be tuned the same. 😂

[@ALHat22]

Leadership: recognizes potential, acknowledges the team, and encourages teamwork. Teams accomplish more than individuals ever could, they push each other to succeed, they encourage the best in others as well as from themselves, and they learn lessons when the point might be missed alone. VV

[@MrSugardove]

Sean stopped competing and became a leader

[@Yomamahouse180]

the snare tuning is so different between the two drums

[@yellowflamegaulent3902]

I'm leaning them.

[@yasminejohnson3372]

crazy man it’s supposed to be. Would be boring if they sound the same.

[@dwadeisajerk]

I thought it was two things to let you know when nick cannon was playing vs others and also to show the age difference between the two where as nicks drums sound lighter so more youth and his section leader is a little lower so older

[@uncleruckus3930]

I didn't know you could tune a drum

[@duck5336]

Shaggy yup. The tighter the snare, the crispier it sounds. Most high schools have looser snares than colleges which is why college snares are much more pleasant to hear.

[@fortunatoallenivan9759]

ONE BAND, ONE SOUND!

[@gottagosyndrome4185]

Not related to this movie, but my parents are Marching Band directors, and every time the band starts marching across the field for their halftime show, they yell “One band, one sound!” This clip reminded me of that :D

[@official_lk5136]

WORLDSTARHIPHOP • 1M views • That was definitely one of the messages in the film. Another message I got out of the film and this scene in particular is how we as black people try to bring each other down and how we should learn to lift each other up. That was the major dynamic between Devon and Sean. Sean was too busy trying to bring Devon down but in the end they learn to come together for the greater good.

[@TXRager]

The only part in the movie that was worth watching was when the rival band played sugar hill gang’s “Apache”

[@dawb86]

The drumming really isn't so bad, the writing is just really bad. The dialogue isn't even true to the characters. Sean would've NEVER called Devin the best even if he knew it to be true. The scene should've taught the same lesson but the wordplay pretty much ruins it.

[@carrastealth]

Yeah Sean could have said "You could be the best Devin." Instead of "you're the best Devin." Same message would have gone across. "So go on and be the man. Without the line." "You could be the best Devin, but out on that field nobody hears YOU."

[@dawb86]

carrastealth exactly. he should have almost been sarcastic towards his attitude but now speaking from a loving place, laid into him for a minute like a big brother teaching him about letting his ego block his blessings. "oh no, don't stop playing now. Let's hear your great solo like every other artist in those subways up in Harlem!" Would have hit a lot closer to home.

[@dustinchen]

dawb86 what

[@R.E.E.D.]

Devin isn't the only character that grew. This was also a small moment of growth for Sean, because he too had an ego. Him saying that Devin was the best, was him setting his own ego aside, no longer being a willing participant in the rivalry so that he could get through to his subordinate. Devin is egotistical. To say, "You could be the best," would just be met with, "No, I am the best,". No other words would have gotten through.

[@GuidedbyCrows]

Lee had to grow too. And put in some up to date music. This movie was passing out lessons for everybody.

[@emmettredding1]

That's what I loved about the film...EVERYONE had their faults and through teamwork they all overcame them and became one. From Devon's arrogance, Sean's power trip to Dr. Lee's sticking to traditional yet unpopular music...they all made a turn!! Hell, even Devon's absent father made a better late than never attempt to reconcile his mistakes with his son!!

When Devon says "You ain't heard me since I stepped on campus."

Sean saying "You the best Devon " He finally recognized that Devon is very talented but needs guidance and ends up offering to help him!!! OG move by Sean!!! 💯💯

Sean knew he could play way before this scene. He acknowledged how good he was when Devon did his tryout and he never looked down at the music sheet. He just didn't like the fact that he was cocky and had a attitude problem

And real ones can spot prospective ones too. When i was in Marching Band in High School, i always messed around on my friends snare drum(dont worry. I was an immature kid and learned MUCH later that this is a no no without the drummers blessing first) on game days between field rehearsals and gametime(everyone would go eat or do whatever or each other, but i would stay and chill at the stadium) and once he came back early and found me drumming away and according to him, better than himself (he was the Drumline Captain). I apologized and went to give him his drum back and he said i should have tried out for the Line. I told him i wanted to, but never did because of what another drummer said they were going to do. After asking what, i told him Daniel said everyone in the Drumline was quitting their jobs, and paying for a cell-phone, truck and vehicle insurance, i couldnt do that. He then told me that they were NOT doing that and that i should try out again the next year. I never did
