Man I remember being at this game... My heart will forever have that Marching Wolverine Pride but Howard sure got the best of us. I was on the field during this song and the whole time my face was like DAMN, this ish sounds nice!!! Great arrangement Howard, the best that I've heard, even better than ours!!
The best big band arrangement and performance of Cameo's "Skin I'm In" ever. The Band Director and the entire band have a creation to remember for their entire lives
Good Job Howard...they've always played the hell out of this song..and has been one of my favorites from them...Howard, Hampton and SCSU are some of the most slept on bands in the MEAC...
they have like 70 ppl, they sound like 200. That is the best of example of POWER. also i think i hear African elements within the song. therefore making the song a good song
That day a 70 member strong Howard University Band blew away the 200 member Morris Brown University Band with this rendition of "Skin I'm In" by Cameo. The level of syncopation and coordination will forever be a classic masterpiece
This is the real skin in! Howard posted a new video with I guess the current band and it’s NOWHERE near where it used to be when my sister was playing!
OUT OF ALL THESE MUTHA f*%$@S ON HEAR TALKIN OUT THE SIDE OF THEY NECK KNOW THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD A BETTER VERSION THAN THIS ONE AND NO ONE ELSE HAS EVER PLAYED THE WHOLE SONG NOW I LOVE FAMU MORRIS BROWN TEXAS A&M AND GRAMLING BUT CANT NOBODY MESS WIT HU SKIN.
I love Skin I'm in when it's played this fast cause they make the melody sound more powerful. I'm not an SU fan or other college band but at one time, I saw SU played it like HU did and I liked theirs because they played it using a lot of staccato and it made it sound real powerful.
this was my sophomore year...if you look at the clip of us playing 2001 i'm the clarinet with hair all over the place lol...anyway...i remember this game like it was yesterday! i love my band (well, at least from 01-04....now....eh.) Ebony Ice Clarinet Section, SL FA03 Eta Delta Chapter, Tau Beta Sigma Alpha Eta Chapter, Gamma Sigma Sigma
Yeah man ya'll got us real good... I remember when ya'll stole the halftime show esp when ya'll played that Dilemma by Nelly & Kelly Rowland that was tight!!! My dude Jared was one of them mellos/f-horns holding it down.
I’m reading these comments “they only had 70 people” “they only had 9 trumpets”…. Is the footage THAT grainy y’all can’t see everyone in the band?? lol, as someone actually in this clip, I assure you showtime was larger than 70 people and we had far more than 9 trumpets in Fall 2002.
Truthfully it really doesn't about the arrangement. if ur comparing bands ppl. SU out plays Howard by far. Howard is out numbered but the reality of the situation is that SU is better flat out
Whoa i didnt too much like it at the beginning but at 4:17 with the screaming and precision with the notes, change my whole outlook on the song. Oh and its a pretty good arrangement to
It's was ok arrangement i liked it for the facted that i have never heard it played like that but MBC has a better arrangement of skin and FAMU and TnSU even tho they don't have any video of it on here but Good Job Howard

I was there that night, MB did not have an answer to this, HU shut down the 5th with this. Man, this version of Showtime was the truth!
Good Job Howard...they've always played the hell out of this song..and has been one of my favorites from them...Howard, Hampton and SCSU are some of the most slept on bands in the MEAC...
Love the chants im inlove With Howard!!
they have like 70 ppl, they sound like 200. That is the best of example of POWER. also i think i hear African elements within the song. therefore making the song a good song
My sophomore year, babay!!! I'll never forget this game. LOL
I wish HU's trumpets were always this strong. They are straight up beastin'
LOL, far from bored player. The crowd was loving it and Morris Brown was not expecting it from this size band. It was a great battle.
That's my section! Tubas gettin it!
howard play the hell out of everythin. i love this band
My all time best from Howard no band has done it better 💰💰💰
YO MAN, that thing is RiGHT, they straight went HAM on it man!!!
Yes, but this arrangement was done by Adolph E. Wright.
By far, best arrangement.
This is tiiiiiiight!!!! Go HU! Off the chain!

I can't front, I really like this version!
they did play skin like cameo was the band director
Great job by every section,from woodwinds on down, or up in this case. Well done by Director, Arranger and Student musicians
This is the real skin in! Howard posted a new video with I guess the current band and it’s NOWHERE near where it used to be when my sister was playing!
Best I've heard from Howard so far.
Gottt dayum!!!! Howard's trumpets were goin' off that night!!!!
i been hearing skin for a long time since like the 80s and they played the shit out of this one , nice job
I miss HU!! Bison til the day I Die!!
Probably the best game I played. Even I expected for us (Howard) to get blown out that night. We surprised me that game.
This Is My Favorite Version.!
Are you serious? "Skin I'm In" by the legendary Funk Band Cameo, recorded in 1988
Just got accepted! and once I get the money to pay for it, expect to hear this power again
Damn. I ain't know they had it like that either! GOT DAMN!
That cymbal work was magnificent, and I don't even play percussion. The drums were outstanding, but the tubas really kept the rhythm
Best arrangement I've heard
Very true...i wish more people would volunteer to march.
southern version is a killer to and the ending is sick
I am going to go to this college when I finish High School. This college rocks!!!

I love Skin I'm in when it's played this fast cause they make the melody sound more powerful. I'm not an SU fan or other college band but at one time, I saw SU played it like HU did and I liked theirs because they played it using a lot of staccato and it made it sound real powerful.
@Gentleman1911 I WASNT THERE BUT LIKE MORRIS BROWN I WASNT EXPECTING THIS SOUND QUALITY EITHER GOOD JOB HOWARD
No 'probably' about it. This is the undisputed best arrangement of Skin I'm In. Even Cameo should be taking notes lol

@grandmasterjax21 its more of a Go Go feel (which is popular in DC) that you here in the song.
Most fun game I ever marched.
Yessssss!
Skin I'm In
BRASS... COUNCIL!!!
3-BC-Fa07
211 E.L.M. St.
This is the best thing...the only thing I like that Howard plays...the best version of Skin I ever heard.
I just applied, but i feel you... 2010 turnin it out!
What school will you be attending in the fall? Just wondering?
In the immortal words of the FAMU announcer to Alabama State, "Touching. A little high school. But touching!"...lol
whoa!!!
UBA PHI TUBA!
UHHH yes they do sir
agreed
I always give credit when credit is due, and you're right there's nothing wrong to admit to something, even when it comes to band...
What year is this?
Beastly
DAMN!!! didnt know howard had it like dat...
Truthfully it really doesn't about the arrangement. if ur comparing bands ppl. SU out plays Howard by far. Howard is out numbered but the reality of the situation is that SU is better flat out
Tenor drums...where'd they go?
Those fucking trumpets
SU. Nobody does it better!!!
PICS DAMN!!!!
LOL!! I saw the smoke and it was thick!
I was off by 1 bone... lol
4:20....
damn right...
yeah i meant 2006.
sounds like an high school if you ask me.
Whoa i didnt too much like it at the beginning but at 4:17 with the screaming and precision with the notes, change my whole outlook on the song. Oh and its a pretty good arrangement to
Beastin killin southern in this one I listen to both of them and Howard
SO FUNNY
This sounds way better than Morris Brown's version.
I play trumpet
this band is not the same. an improvement in 07, but still not the same as before...
you didn't like A&T's?
loved this :D whats the words in the beginning ?
man they stayed crunk on on this song for like 10 min.Truefuly and trust me SU is one of the best bands but howard own skin.
It's was ok arrangement i liked it for the facted that i have never heard it played like that but MBC has a better arrangement of skin and FAMU and TnSU even tho they don't have any video of it on here but Good Job Howard
was kelvin washington at howard when this was recorded?
I hear some txsu influence in this arrangement 😀
other way around😭
they only had 9 trumpets this year.
Wow!
A&T's arrangement little more closer to the song but not s clean
what are you talking about?
@jerrett747 Show me what high school that sounds like....
Good arrangement but I was ready for it to end at the three-minute mark. As my old band director would say, "enough is enough and too much won't do".
