First and foremost great video taping by u Mr. Killa Kev as usual. I really appreciate your vids, so clear and crisp with great audio. AAMU is back with a bit of a vegeance it seems. The flag corp and dancers are ready to work as well. Looking and sounding good u guys!
A&M sounds fantastic... the quality of their sound is awesome. I hear some improvement from TC but they need to clean it up some more. Some parts are hella muddy..
Killa Kev great job as usual with the video taping. AAMU u guys are sounding good and strong this season with divas and flag corp looking good as well. Dega proud to see u guys are making progress and will continue to wish u much success this season. (Side note) enjoyed your song selection TC
Branden Bryant It’s crazy to me because that March proved they can sound good. It’s like they don’t care about balance, blend, innovation, articulation when it comes to regular selections. They be so harsh. The tuba line just be splatting and honking lol
When central finally arrived...good sound for small band. TC y’all was good and great sound but AAMU wins 0 and 5th quarter!! Both were good battles!! Outnumbered but not outplayed.
If people say that Dega won this battle, they must not know the difference between blasting, pitch, and intonation, because they sound horrible and not clean. I can hear all parts of the song and know the name of the songs from A&M.
Based on quality of sound: PVAMU is definitely in this conversation! I haven't heard them in person, but the video of them vs Grambling👍🏾 The Storm is sounding great👌🏾
/\/\ MARCHINGSPORT they’ve been announcing it but I live on the coast and it wasnt that much publicity for it this year. I completely forgot about it until Friday evening.
Didn’t see anything online. Just saw the flyer for the Mobile Battle of the Bands last week and put it on the schedule. A lot of times it seems there’s only 2-4 weeks notice for an event, if that these days. The National BOTB and Battle for Birmingham gave months in advance notice. Good to have options.
This was just the Gulf Coast Challenge Football Game. The BOTB is Next Weekend. I won’t even be able to make that because of my job. But I know what you mean about the time frame. The promoters be dropping the ball.
I'll give Dega props for cleaning up the sound. There is still some cleaning up to do. The attacks and releases were iffy. Balance and blend can be improved but sound much better than the last few seasons. Overall I give it to A&M. I'm not completely sold on the arrangements but I can't find fault with their musicianship.
@@wesleydaniels40 "famu got blew out by SU" = this symphonic orchestra got blew out by a N.O. Big brass band. Each exemplify a different genre and style of music. Thats what SU do. Y'all need to wtfu and appreciate da shit bands is doing. I don't come one here par once against the other unless otherwise ( swac.vs swac or meac vs meac). About the 100 being trash. Unless you understand the 100 (which you would have to be IN it for that) your opinions are null to me. The band is still rebuilding, but 2019 seems to be our "resurgent" edition. They well on the way back to the 100 sound. I am VERY critical of the 100 and the sound. While in the past comments like yours found ground on these comment sections. But were they stand now, thats some bullshit. You obviously don't know the 100 sound. If you did, youd know exactly where the post 2011 program stands. FAMU don't blow and SU wooodwinds sound like gaaabage. Can't play SHIT if it dont got SU on the sheet music. But see, we (hbcu bands and community) doing too much progression to waste my time over comparing, reaching, etc. I don't even listen to AAMU, i hit em with good vibes. Battles etc all good yea, but yall niggas need to get out of being immediately divisive.
@@wesleydaniels40 The intensity is not the same. But that is built (imo) with your retained veteran and senior band members, who understand the concept used to produce the "wall of sound". 2019 potential comes from them folks who been marching/learning the last 4..5 years
TC sound good but not AAMU good. A lot of hanging over notes, flat at some points. As I always say, a baby can cry loud, but that's still is not a good sound. AAMU have stepped up from the last 3 years. Sound clean and can hear all the parts. The battle of the bands in Birmingham, Miles sounded great. But, until they work on control, we can't give them the band of Alabama. And, State need to tell Dr. Oliver it's time to retire. And, this is coming from someone who listen to band music all day.
I said the same thing bro I crab down there in 04 the band have been up and down for years one year they sound ok next sound like shit. The only thing holding on is the dances girls
Erick Phillips that’s that meac in them still and TC is most def progressively making a sound of their own I think since they came out they hand to gain attention and still is although they started out with a lot of transfers from almost every conference they are now at the point where recruits aren’t a problem and can work on building a better identity! They both did they thing in this one !
Reginald Blouin well they have a new band director imo I don’t feel like he is being the heat like Haymer I’m a huge SU fan but they have been slacking and that’s honest truth but of course the Dolls are also fun to watch they always keep it clean and classy
@@gofish4392 ...if you are saying Miles demolished AAMU then no👀 not the same battle😅 That's like saying Stillman demolished Miles😂 Miles was great, but not better than A&M Stillman was good, but not better than Miles.
Fan of Music, I can’t take your judgement serious cat. You think Aamu exposed State with a poorly arranged rap tune😂😂😂 MCC 5th quarter gone definitely have you coming with the excuses😉 Then y’all will revert back to the we louder position🤷🏽♂️ Couldn’t use that card with Dega nor have I seen anyone from Aamu mention volume. Watch how that differs in MCC comments because ASU will sound better and have better arrangements. We shall see who gets exposed in a full battle😎
What's some of the differences between being there in person and this video? I am asking because perspective is important. I highly recommend listening to the videos with a pair of good headphones!
I can appreciate dega adding some more technical music to the book. Needs just a lil more fine tuning but it wasnt bad at all. Imma give the zero to A&M though they brought the whole 9 yards plus the 10th.
Initially, Central State was not slated to come, so they asked Dega to come down and stand in....... Central State decided to come but arrangements had already been made for Dega.
TC sounded muddy and trash, woodwins all ova da woadd but AAMU sounded clean and collected and the whole band over all was better than TC. TC stands for Total criple btw if yall didnt know by the way they sounded. Loll
@@gofish4392 your funny man...lol.. I marched so I know thanks. It's called control and balance while playing. I actually like TC and have personally witnessed them in person. I will say certain sections have a tendency to overblow and stick out which in turn causes some distortion. However, they do crank and put out watts. Just my opinion bro. Lol
Aamu is clean they baritones are ass and they mellos never go above the staff meanwhile Talladega blowing haymakers from that corner and they sound good
That response march from AAMU was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Branden Bryant Dies Irae
Damn TC that Trombone King shows growth!🔥
Lmao it's a warm-up they've always played good marches
no it dont
Dre Nyte Well it does to me... They played it better than I’ve heard in the past. All other selections are whatever they wanted to sound like
@@justathought5561 lmao he just a hater look up Talladega purple carnival
AAMU response to that Trombone King was amazing!❤️😩
Just A Thought on God great selection
Talladega great March!!! 🔥🔥🔥 And AAMU'S response 😳👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🔥🔥🔥

I like how Alabama is true to themselves......

Honestly if Dega cleaned up sound... they would be the truth... size is right on point... growth in the right direction! Just clean up that sound...

No I was there TC outnumbered. They are huge saw them twice at battle of Birmingham also. Each section is larger
TC definitely smoked AAMU first and 5th

A&M sounds good and kudos to Dega for cleaning up that sound.
Aamu definitely Alabama's best.

Alabama A&M is the NSU of the SWAC meaning they sound amazing and colorful. Talladega sounds progressive
As a Legion alum... I concur bro.....AAMU is full and clean...

Classic NSU or Current NSU?
Almighty DaVinci most definitely classic 09 to be exact
Rio Wesley I’m waiting on NSU to reign supreme again. I grew up in Memphis and outside of TSU and JSU, NSU and SU were my favorites coming up
Let go bulldogs🔥 🔥 🔥
Glad to see Dega actually competing again. Thanks Miguel !!!!
4:56 shonuff
8:43 this arrangement tho!!
Taladegas tubas sound like they need some milk. They can’t hold phrases and sound thin and those out of tune woodwinds... AAMU by a country mile.
Lmao Talladega 40pc tubas......thin🥴wtf you ain’t hear them stand alone c’s in that 2nd song them boys have MUSIC to play not simple shit
Yes Sir I like this battle. Rather entertaining to listen to at work. Some shockers in there too
I was at that game it was fun
Southern stay on yall mind.
Dega HOW THE F#ck you start with a march you don't know!!! 5th was over at that point.
🧏🏿♂️what are u listening to it was solid and it’s a zero quarter put the crack PIPE DOWNNNN
AAMU W
MMW ONE TIME !!!!!! MMW MURDER MURDER KILL KILL
Yooooo that dies irae yeeesh
Talladega that march was beautiful🔥🔥🔥
Dega tubas struggled on that march
And it wasn't even complicated 😅🤦🏽♂️
Why talledega sound like how SU suppose to sound this year.?
TC is smacking this year
Finally some body give us credit 😂
David Johnson I was saying that myself and SU sounds like Talladega old sound
southern have one bad week now all of sudden they “don’t sound good” just stop... them niggas sound fine hatin ass nigga
Reginald Blouin well they have a new band director imo I don’t feel like he is being the heat like Haymer I’m a huge SU fan but they have been slacking and that’s honest truth but of course the Dolls are also fun to watch they always keep it clean and classy
What was AAMU 2nd song?
AAMU is exposing a lot of bands at an alarming rate!!!
Like who🤔
@@Rod3820 ...Alabama State at the Battle for Birmingham is the easiest one to point out😎

What was the name of the song TC played at 10:50
MrLux Story to tell
IDK what to say about Talladega tubas...They sound good AT TIMES I guess.
The video don’t sound like it did in person trust me
What's some of the differences between being there in person and this video? I am asking because perspective is important. I highly recommend listening to the videos with a pair of good headphones!
The video sound better or worse than it did in person?
isaiah it’s hard to explain
That brown skin a&m cheerleader was thick asf tho
Trying to figure out who the dude behind the camera, great work!
AAMU!!
I love that first Joint by AAMU💪💪 LOOK at lil dude in the front @1:04😂😂😂💀
AAMU won sound and dance 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥🔥
I can appreciate dega adding some more technical music to the book. Needs just a lil more fine tuning but it wasnt bad at all. Imma give the zero to A&M though they brought the whole 9 yards plus the 10th.
What's the third song AAMU played?
Nutcracka, I believe it’s an original composition by Mario Warren.
@@JasonT1875 Appreciate it.
That last song by TC was nice.. just gotta clean it up an d lock down that funky percussion part towards the end of the tune
I always replay kevs Intro lol 😭🔥
LightBright Biancaa right I kid you not I just replayed it 3 times
Big bruh came out the tunnel with the shit 11:15
Tc second song???
Nice sound AAMU 🤩🤩
Listening to Dega feels good only thing missing is the foolsackly's chicken fingers #upthere upthere!!!
Dega tubas definitely have volume but seriously need to play all the music as written they struggle on simple stuff
Curtis Hinkle they are playing it as written. How do you know how their music is written like that?
15:42 🔥🔥🔥
BestToDoIt7 Too Many Games🔥🔥🔥
Wats the song at 11:00
Fredo bang story to tell
wait..how TC at the game😂😂 whose idea was this?!..i like it but this is ghetto they should’ve did this last year it would’ve been more exciting
We asked the same question 😂😂
Initially, Central State was not slated to come, so they asked Dega to come down and stand in....... Central State decided to come but arrangements had already been made for Dega.
TC sousaphones find a way to fuck up every song 🤦🏾♂️
If Talladega would "trim the fat" off this band, they would be unstoppable.
Ummmm..that trombone king was a fool
Aquann Smith no kudos here... i agree... you gotta do more than just play it
what song TC played after aamu played that march?
Kenderion Hurt love me less by MAX
Go Fish preciate dat
I like it
What’s the last song asu plays?
There's no ASU in this video.
@@KillaKevProd i ment bama
@@KillaKevProd the song at 13:34

I thought they were going against Central State University???
They were. CSU didn't get there until almost 2nd Quarter.
Killa Kev Productions oh ok
@@KillaKevProd did they have sectional battles??????
I wish. Talladega literally played nothing during the game.
@@KillaKevProd damm thats unfortunate😔
What March was that Dega played? “Brasses to the Fore”?
M 99 “Trombone King” I think. I remember playing it in highschool.
Trombone king
Trombone King
Did Central end up coming?
J King Media yes they was late
Talladega starting with a march like it’s their game. 😂
Nicholas Garraway nice try dude
I like Talladega's energy! A few chord progressions and chorales at piano and mezzo forte that focus on pitch, balance, and blend, and they will be🔥🔥🔥
What’s the name of the second song A&M played ?
Carrington Calvin Dies Irae
Confused 🤷♂️ is this a Botbs cause Talledega don’t have a football 🏈 team ..??
No they were there in place of Central States band. At one point CSU wasn't coming.
@@KillaKevProd O ok i get it

Cant wait for dega to run into SU this year
Got to give it to Dega
Curtis Hinkle they will at that same stadium next month!
Su gonna slap them
No difficulty lml
Why is su always end up being a topic under Talladega videos ? This has nothing to do with su
Talladega won
