Jackson State Marching Out "Get Ready" - JSU Sonic Boom of the South and Prancing J-Settes

[@H3110NU]

I have no idea how or why I got into JSU Sonic Boom of the south. Just a random Canadian who likes this hype music. Someday I’ll make a trip down to catch it. Great stuff.

[@steelersluv]

I think it’s so amazing how these drum majors always keep it fresh. They get better every year. Never a fall off. There’s a lot of pride in this band.

[@sarahlynnmarkham2760]

Amen and Amen. Proud of Jackson State. Doubly proud of Ft Myers Native Coach Sanders deciding to coach JSU not FSU or FAMU. 6th Gen Floridian not to go out of state , HYDR from Clearwater Fla

[@sarahlynnmarkham2760]

Want to clarify- I decided not to go to FSU and chose UM bc I needed to live somewhere besides Florida. My farthest relative on both sides lives in Jacksonville Fla. Jackson MS this is dignity and grace . Rooting for JSU . Go FAMU Go FSU Respect to Coach Sanders - fort Myers King.

people supporting this know what's happening in California? Hispanic politicians have been recorded saying they want to beat a Black baby...they are calling Black people monkeys they are planning on funneling funds fraudulently to their OWN HISPANIC DISTRICT!! they are saying they don't fck with politicians who are for the BLACKS!!! and here you dummies are loving how they will take over HBCU'S

[@YahuahElohim]

Where’s the pride? I hope the Hispanics take it over since they want to celebrate them so much!!!

[@NinerEmpire5x]

Oh for sure. Imagine if those people put that much effort into actually contributing to society! Would turn their entire race around, but that's to much work so they'll just take the easy way out as usual and turn to crime. Statistics don't lie. Now call me a racist instead of defending them because you know I'm right.

[@Lakiea79]

The young man who is the lead drum major I love how he is letting everybody shine and doesn't have the spotlight solely on himself...that's a great leadership quality...👌great job young man..looking forward to this season..

Is he from Skyline High School?

[@stephenstevosmith464]

Literally watched him grow up ... 🥲

[@prettyassassin57]

@@marcus_harris38 yes and I’m sure he is the first of many Latin DMs to come. Them kids trained well coming from that HS.

[@MrOu83]

Black people are so delusional and silly to always want to be inclusive-invite everyone to the cookout- and form so-called alliances with others who have no genuine interest in being in a true alliance with you. While diversity is such a great thing in your mind (I guess the same way integration was all-important back in the 60s), Black people still remain on the bottom, even Latinos & Hispanics make more on average than we do. Meanwhile, Black people hate other Black people, but feel proud to see a Latino drum major leading JSU. SMH.

[@KingD0]

I felt he was gonna be lead. He was going his thing last year.

[@latosharichardson4533]

Abraham is legendary! Especially the game where it rained and they captured a picture of him just in position not even flinching! Met him in person Amazing young man!

[@auntemmyd1604]

These Amazing groups of young Men and Women take my breath away and seem to get me emotional. Lol a bit choked up! Watching all of the Talent and Hard Work, as well as Thinking about the amazing Memories they are all making together and individually! I know Their Loved ones are Proud! I know I Am!!! Both my Mother and my Sister were Percussionist both in the Marching Band and Other bands. Grandma was a professional Jazz Drummer in a time that a female drummer period was Taboo! So, this is all very close to my heart! God Bless and all the Best!

Fam, let's ALL take a moment to acknowledge the young blood and lead DM for JSU - *Marvin Meda*. I literally watched him blossom right before my eyes while at SKYLINE HIGH SCHOOL here in Dallas. Time is FLYING ... Good luck to all of the Boom members for 2022 & best of luck this school year.

[@Bw1tched86]

This explains it all! Skyline's band director is a JSU alum

[@ellejaydotson5406]

Why?

[@kashking2276]

I’m from Dallas too Oak Cliff…the Hispanic community in Dallas has integrated into our schools and mimic our culture. That’s doesn’t mean they need to in front or in charge. Black ppl are way too passive it’s an example of a bigger problem.
