Way better than Valley's arrangement.

You already know it’s bad when KB can’t say nun and just start laughing outta nowhere😂😂

[@KBThaBandhead]

Big facts 😭😭

[@awesomefan1678]

I also expected a better battle from Valley. I saw them in the BOTB at the beginning of the year and I was looking forward to this battle. However, Dr. Little has his foot on the gas and he is not letting up for anyone. Dr. Little is not taking it easy on anyone. If you are going against the BOOM you had better be on top of your game because Dr. Little is coming with sound, musicality, arrangements, technique & style as well as execution that you can only get from the BOOM. I love to see Dr. Little & Travis get hyped because that rubs off on the band and the crowd. They are unmatched!!!!!💙🤍💙🤍

Last year it was Alabama State, this year it's MVSU. 😭

[@ladeiiluck]

@@KBThaBandhead Alabama State is definitely JSU’s Alabama Campus 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@bradleyhairston]

Bonds playing the other schools traditional songs is “finesse” I guess 🤣🤣 I think they played 2-3 of JSU’s at this game…instead of learning new songs to battle with 🙃

[@annnrenee25]

Mississippi Valley was feeling themselves by playing when JSU was marching in, but the 5th quarter Valley had to eat crow.😞

[@BrandonCF23]

They tried😂😂😂😂

Why is the Director for Valley just standing there.....Direct! Tempo...something???? BOOM!

@cchisolm92cc well I'm entitled to my opinions just like you.. I played trombone in a marching band..my grandfather played trumpet for SU and my uncle played trombone for JSU and Alcorn... And yes MS Valley needs more practice and they will figure it out

What happened to the land band director of valley . I think he came from alcorn. He was there like one year.

[@kimberlylindsey3774]

@39:38 he said just the whole song the whole battle deductions.....😂😂😂😂lmao😊

[@marlonflowers2612]

Man shout out to Jackson State for shaking up the whole SWAC hierarchy!!! Love them (STILL SU ALL DAY!!) Funny thing is I saw a trumpet player for Valley last Friday before the game and was like man hope y'all do well. But just thinking about the answer he gave when I asked are they ready......it was like a forced yeah like we know who we got coming tomorrow. Gonna be honest, I think they're still in the honeymoon stage of being this size. Hopefully they put in the work and not get comfy cuz this ain't it!!! WTBS, Looking forward to this BoomBox BOTB!! Hopefully SU has been eating!! 💛💙

[@justinmj1086]

It appears valley were playing fast songs for the satin dolls! It makes sense, they wanted to give them something to buck to against the settes

[@KBThaBandhead]

I'm sure just the like settes, the satin dolls have 8 counts for any song the band plays. If not, they are limiting themselves. IJS

[@DariusHilarious]

“Mmm. Yeah…” -KB 😂😂😂

[@dmoore2224]

MVS 2nd song was nice - But it's a battle of quality vs name/ quantity... I like the slide notes from the trombones!

[@damargittens4934]

37:59 tuba line is groovy!

[@carltheyoda2155]

Valley has come a long way...but JSU fed them though a wood chipper because Valley didn't have a game plan or stamina as the battle continued.

[@charlesrobinson2718]

Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face 😂

[@grandpa09s]

I think part of valley's problem is their arrangements.

[@marcuslyons7233]

That and trumpets 🎺

[@vinces3347]

We’re gonna have to get a sponsor for KB to go to the boombox classic next year for a live reaction

[@danaterrellsmith]

MVSU will be okay just give them time. 3/4s of the band are freshmen. They will continue to grow and get better. They just hired an assistant to assist Dr. Bonds.

This battle was a valley dead body!

Good job for Sonic Boom ❤❤❤

[@SonicBoomC98]

Did you see the clip of the terrible start to a song for Valley when the Boom about to do a trombone fanfare? Valley sounds like a high school that can't decide if they want to copy JSU or SU. The song sounds like nothing, then they will all the sudden start punching. I don't remember Valley ever having upper brass. How do you skate on Africano?

I think valley got some horn holders in there band

[@RodneyPlayer-qr5pw]

Easy win for jsu. I love those tuba's they be hawking. The best tuba's in the Swac.

[@vinces3347]

The bottom line is…Everyone should be proud Valley has gotten better…we all praised them for anything they did when they had 30 people but it’s sad to see people disrespecting them now

[@tonikeith-elder]

Word-up to the Boom (sometimes you got to take it back to Old School)!! Double-clap to Mississippi Valley for showing up (always encourage our young folks)!! Also, as for Recruitment tape, Yep!! But somebody got to tell these Fresh that they "may" not come out the gate playing with the Boom in their first year; with all the talent from the upper classmen, no. But Freshmen, especially if you are on scholarship, then don't worry about it; just keep practicing, and hanging out, you have 3 more years to get your turn. But throw the young Freshmen cymbal dude out there, you know who I'm talking about, the Mexican/White dude. Also, can someone tell DR LITTLE and the JSU Band to play "MAGIC MIND" again before the season is over. You guys need to go back and listen to that song, I think it was the 2nd game for JSU, I thought I was going to lose my mind; every section sounds great!! I went to the Week 0 game, in Atlanta, and I was sitting two seats next to the Tubas, I didn't know we would be sitting that close until I got there. But I had a blast. Continue jamming JSU.

[@RodneyPlayer-qr5pw]

KB I guess you're gonna have to pay Valleys director a visit to let them know whassup. They were trying but it came to naught unfortunately. Better luck next time.

[@demondrerandolph2021]

Valladega is inexperienced in 5th quarter battles, but that was the smallest part of the problem in this performance. The intonation, unbalanced highs and lows, wrong voicing remindsme of Talladega and txsu in certain years past, overblowing to the point the rhythm notations are bleeding over the melody, no musicality, and for a band is like no soles on a shoe, no focus, no discipline, no leadership. Because of the way they kept playing bad music after the battle was lost. Last but not least arrangements was middle school/high with reharmonization, voice leading, chord progressions, whole notes that bleed over the melody, no stamina, attacks and releases on melodic lines throwing the balance off, (song selection and song choice was questionable trash for a musical battle) 😢 Msvs gets a 2/10 from me. Would have been less than 2, but they at least came in uniform. 😅

Valley started this battle at crappy SEC BAND ATTEMPTING SHOW BAND TUNES level and ended at HIGH SCHOOL BAND WITH 3 TUBAS AND 5 TRUMPETS status 🤦🏾‍♂️
