[@funtimeswithraynanci4596]

I Believe What We Are Witnessing Here Is Just The Start of Some Special At TxSU Especially Under The New Leadership! They Sound 🎶 Great!! Way To Go Ocean 🌊!!!

[@yogiinner2199]

Baby The Ocean with Soul At Parade Season comes to "Shores ", Yes Of Course ".#2022 Where Are Tides Congregation Essence Bringing Us Next". That "Aroma" song titled by, "Pretty Black". # Trap Camp On Sound Cloud.

They were amazing! I love their high kicks and uni. I’ve never really watched this band, so they are one to watch this upcoming season for me.

[@anthonymackey6622]

Dani got the Motion dancing so clean..i love her

[@gytcymbalz]

Damn Jukebox and Boom!!! Protect yah neck. The Ocean is the most improved band this marching season. Can’t wait till next season!

[@paulrandall6780]

They have Jukes and Boomers on their staff....🤷🏾

TxSU twirlers are SOLID. I hope the band keeps the twirlers.

OH I was so entertained by both TxSU Ocean/Motion and Alcorn and the GGs this weekend on here!! I am so glad to see more of Motion's parade material, they did their thing!

I’m so happy and more excited for the future. Thank you Simmons and the new leadership in place for the change. Alumni is very proud! Shoutout to Ms. Stamper my girl be out here working and doing an amazing job at it.

[@fountainmedia4683]

Man Texas Southern University sounds freaking INCREDIBLE! GO #OceanOfSoul

[@kasperoneal7699]

I love the fact that Dani didn't change the Motions style like so many coaches who dance for other HBCUs. Dani just polished and added to the Motion's signature look. Beautiful Ladies.

[@jsavageify]

That say say say hits hard!!! They keep a fire twirler in front!!! Motion rocking!!!!

[@somila5045]

Motion looks so good. This may be a bit controversial, but I think Chyna should be up front next season. The girls have been on an upward movement since Cheyenne and Kaelynn came after and gave everything, so they need to keep that momentum going🤷🏾 and her energy has been IT at these parades.

[@kidrich6902]

TSU Ocean Of Soul Band, Y'all in H-Town baby I don't have to go that far too see👀 you baby lol😘💯

[@travisjohnson057]

Goddammit i got it...i knew it was something prof simmons and company brought to the ocean that made them just seem different besides arrangements and sound...the identity and feel of the band feels classy distinguished and more mature performing...everything is more organized controlled with that cleanliness from the fitted band director uniforms to the movement of the motion and twirlers to the behavior of the band...great job my OCEAN OF SOUL🌊🌊🌊🌊💨💨💨💨💪💪💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤❤💯💯💯💯

[@mjgabriel9743]

I agree, same ocean, new wave. It seems The Ocean has maintained its identity but its all about attention to detail. EVERYTHING from uniforms, sound and movements is precise including the Motion! A clear difference from past versions of the Ocean. Good job staff and students!

"Thoth parades on the Sunday prior to Fat Tuesday each year through Uptown New Orleans with the most unique route in Mardi Gras. Still holding to our roots ..." Beautiful Parade route until they entered under the bridge, then it looks like a totally different city. Just a gorgeous city. The girls were beautiful, the band was kicking, and the crowds sooo Louisiana [know how to have a good time]. Enjoyed.

The Drum major on the left needs some cardio and a Red Bull… my man’s looks like he was he was having trouble keeping up. lol Curious to see how the Ocean will turn out in the Fall under another year of direction. ✌🏾

[@UhhhAreyouok]

Mannnnn, I thought it was just me! I was scrolling through the comments to see if anyone else felt what I was feeling. He needs a lot of work! He came off unconditioned and lazy and didn't match the energy of the other drum major!

[@aussiepressconferences.4755]

Coming from Australia it’s great to see such passionate involvement and commitment from the community. But despite the obvious community support I feel the spirit of the people is poorly served on a broken street, the performers and the community deserve better from the local government.

12:30: Isn't this the Brass version of a Cheap Trick classic? It has this 80s sound, sort of! But please help me, can't figure out which is the title of this song! By the way: Cheap Trick are still alive & kicking & are getting ready for a new tour! Hurrah, update: heard the original version of this song on the radio yesterday. It's Journey's "Don't stop believin'. Also an 80s classic that lives on, performed by a Afro - American College brass band.
