This is not a negative comment, but to all the people who say he doesn't deserve his spot, just look at how hard he is marching(stepping) compared to the rest of the boys. He got his spot bc he worked the hardest. There is no way in that a black school would just give the white boy that spot. My boy had to work for it.
Many of us don't see the color of racism. Those that assume we do are the true racists. It's not a color problem. It's a human perception problem that needs to change. Stop seeing ghosts where they don't exist. God made us all. Just leave it at that. God bless 🙏❤️🙏
And the reason why he’s one of the DMs for the Alabama State University Marching Hornets 🐝 for the past 3 years. Can’t walk into that position without qualifications.
Listen, I've replayed to watch each of them, just to make sure it's not because of the camera focused on him. He goes harder on his moves compared to the others. He worked for his spot for sure

I am not surprised one bit how Justin was being cheered for and encouraged! Us folk are the most welcoming and inviting of all races!! We love to welcome folk to the party. I just wish it the same for us to be welcomed by all!
Honestly the black community is so welcoming and encouraging. I feel very fortunate that I grew up surrounded by all kinds of people different than myself. If only these beautiful aspects of black culture were more visible instead of reinforcing bullshit sterotypes.
See and those two people are listening to that reinforce bullshxt that they see on the internet, probably have not met black people and if they have, they met the minority. Black people are not the most racist race on the planet so gtfo, we love to welcome new people and teach them our culture simply because we like having new people interested in us outside of stereotype.
@bad Good then thats very unfortunate but most of us are fxcking not like the people your life, so don't say that like you know all black people, you dick.
@gray73 "I LiVe iN OnE...." one, single not fxcking plural asshole. So until you venture out to other black communities you dont know shxt about the rest of us, again very unfortunate but most of us are not fxcking like that, stop trying to catagorize us based off the MINORITY OF PEOPLE YOU HAVE UNFORTUNATELY MET. Plz and thank you 😁
Yes!! Major props to their music director. Clearly he or she either attended an HBCU or is a super fan...LoL!! I love it! And props to these young men and women for their dedication. You don't become this good over night
I used to be in marching band in high school, my band and the drill squad won awards on the regular. too bad when that year i graduated and the band director retired it isn't the same any more. We used to put on crazy shows like this
This kid is taking this thing serious!!He has a tremendous responsibility leading an all black band,he has no room for error and trust me he's holding it Down💪I feel honored 👍Go Vanilla Funk!😜 Awesome band! Awesome Drum majors!!👏👏👏
Miss me with the we have to overcome and be above reproach when it comes to whites, Asians, and anyone else claiming minority status. Paul Mooney said it best “everybody want to be black but no one wants to be black!
First, for a high school band, they sound fantastic, on par with some college bands. Honor should go to the band director for that. Secondly, you can see the level of discipline inherent in the way everyone moves and relate to each other. Third, all the drum majors are great and there is a cohesiveness among them. They move as one instead of any one person attempting to outdo the other. That comes from a mental mindset that they work together and not as separates. Finally, a leader DM must set the example. Justin Heidiman has earned that spot and should occupy it even if he’s polka-dotted. Now that WOULD draw comments!! Besides, the attention he unintentionally brought the band can only be good for them. They aren’t just another high school band anymore. They have gone viral. All in all, I say sit back and enjoy the show while it lasts!!

ALL of the drum majors are excellent. Folks are just surprised to see a white guy as lead drum major (at a black school) and he's comfortable around us. I do love the entire JDHS band!
@@timtaylor4372 There are tons what the hell are you talking about!

We were all just students stuck in High School! So stop spreading false information! This is what keeps the cycle going!

These guys are fantastic! Marching is no joke! The Dancers, Flag girls and Drum Majors work hard as hell! As much as the Band itself! Their Parade Marching is aweome!
In 1986, dad took me to the MLK day parade. Being white and 13, I was kind of scared to go. Dad was a mechanic in the hood and was creole. He could easily pass for being black. The music and the bands were fantastic! It was a great time until the last float came. The guy threw a big box right at me. I thought it was a bunch of candy. I went to catch it and before I could, Dad grabbed me and moved me to the side. The box landed and exploded. It had a huge glass bottle in it that shattered. Everyone there was looking at me making sure I was OK and ran down the float and grabbed the dude off of it. I was shocked that those people looked after me like that. It changed my outlook on black people and forever changed my life. We left the parade in dads 69 Camaro blasting "the show" a Doug E Fresh song. It will forever be one of the fondest memories of my dad. He was later robbed and murdered in Mobile in 2013. R.I.P Daddy. I'll love you forever.
Baby Boy did not come to play! He's a good lead drum major and the chemistry between the four drum majors is captivating and exciting. Great audience!!
Who's the "EXTREMELY TALENTED" white kid??? Great rythmn, dance moves on point, confidence, strong presence, Excellent job young man. You're one of us!🌟
Love this band. Love how the black community is so accepting of Justin. I saw an interview with him on TV, and he seems so humble with all of the media about him, including the band in its entirety. I like the nickname he has been given "vanilla funk" ... lol
Love Jeff Davis Marching Band ..........love it ...much love from ...London England .....beautiful young laddies ....handsome young men .....Great band Thanks for lifting my spirits 💕
My hats off to the entire band. BEST high school marching band I ever seen. These kids are in Hella Shape.. marching in a parade & keeping that stamina up is amazing.
The discipline and ability of this whole team is amazing. The dance team has stepped up theirs routine and look great . The DM team is awesome to watch and they never seem to get tired.
I recently went down a CZcams hole of HBC marching bands and how fascinating the entire culture and structure in it. That being said, this band could compete against moat of them. I especially like the integration of the dancers with the drum majors.
As a veteran of marching in parades, during rainy season, in the south, I have to say that the endurance of EVERY SINGLE MEMBER OF THIS BAND IS AMAZING! There's absolutely NO WAY I would have been able to keep my trumpet chops sounding this 100% for this long (Had this trick where, after halfway in, we'd sometimes alternate every other member for every other song for long parades lol). Crowd response is also 100% the motivation. GREAT JOB, JDHS! 🤜🏽🤛🏽 👏👏❤️❤️
Damn! These kids have taken this to a whole other level! That kid Justin gets the crowd and band really worked up. I bet he doesn’t just get out of bed in the mornings, he jumps six feet in the air, lands and dances! And the band sounds sweeeet! Kudos to their leaders. Lots of pride!
Justin Heideman has so much talent. Wonder what the future holds for him. Can't wait to see what he does next. Onward to College. Band is a catapult for so many Student !!!!!
I was surprised to see Jefferson Davis at the parade. I've seen them on CZcams. They were excellent. I love the drum majors but the band sound great. They sound like a college band.
I still find myself watching Vanilla Funk old high school band video's 4 years later and I still watch I have a lot of this highschool band video's download and to the camera men they need a raise job well done ✅💯👏🏾👏🏾
Not sure why there would be any thumbs down. I thought that these kids did an excellent job. Maybe those people don't realize how much work goes into a marching season which starts well before school starts. Not too mention working those parades is also hard work. Excellent job kids. Would have loved to have seen your performance in a stadium, I bet it would be an awesome performance.
I just love this kid and his passion for dancing!! I can see his love for all races of Color. Great job to his parents on Raising a beautiful son❤️❤️❤️
These young men and women just make your heart smile!!!!! They are all so talented!!!! I watch them when I feel sad from being closed in the house so much!!!!! You make your school, your parents, your community so proud, without seeing color!!!! The way should all be! We are all Gods children.......we need to love one another, stand strong together and be proud of these beautiful students who have worked their hearts out!!!! Love from Indiana!!!!
There goes those amazing young people again! They're all so talented! Hard to believe this is a high school. Go'on young people with y'all bad selves.😍
Love watching these young men and ladies. #PositiveVibes! Kudos to the Director(s), Administrators, Teachers, and especially the Parents / Guardians along with the Montgomery community for supporting them! GOD bless them ALL! Now, on to NEW ORLEANS! Show up and SHOW out Baybees!!! ❤️
I truly enjoy watching these young men & women! It's hard to believe they're high school students. I just hate I wasn't in my hometown (Mobile, AL) to witness it in person! Great Job! Keep Up the Good Work!
I just want to see Justin's family tree....thats all 😂 This band is Amazing just to be a highschool band, the choreography, drummers, dancers, noones lacking in this band. I wish these talented kids nothing but blessings & much success, they deserve it 😘😍❤
I love how everyone loves and supports this amazing & talented group of young people! I love them too and don’t even know them, so I can only imagine the intense love their community has for them!❤️❤️❤️
You are right Fig, Love is all we need to heal the entire world not just here in the state, exercise like this brings people together from different race, culture and ways of life... We all have something to teach and educate each other. Ones life is for everyone's life and everyone's life for someone's life. Let Love lead.
The School Pride is Beautiful to watch. Even the turn out of the community is Awesome...Rain or Shine, they're out there enjoying and supporting them. I love it! Loads of Love from NYC🤟
Nice to see more of the others. The girls are great and the band. How on earth all of them including the drum majors keep up the pace without mistakes. Amazing . I would love to see them in person. From Australia. Never get tired of watching of their videos.
I would love to see them here in Holland. To perform when the DCI starts again. Not this year, next year.. and with Justin, the DM.. my oh my.. THAT is something else..😍👍 That energie from the whole band... wauw, Just wow!
I enjoy the JD band very much. Great director. He brings the spirit. The students take over. Fun to watch and listen. And whatever ‘it’ is, JH has ‘it’. Wishing all Seniors much success.
Kudos to the faculty and band director who make this a top notch program. The sound, the moves, the energy all looks like a college program. Justin is doing a great job leading, and the other drum majors are also phenomenal. These kids are putting on a better show than so many professionals. Good for them!
@@MrGrifter123 Just three graduated. They're all going to HBCU. The poor kid that's left behind has big shoes to fill next year. The four of them killed it this year!
First off those who are talking about that young man " Justin" because he is white is just shameful. You can tell that young man especially as a white male a drum major works his butt off to get to where he is. He deserves the credit he is due and so does the amazing BAND members behind him. They all look like they put in a lot of time to perfect their skills. He is not stealing anything. I appreciate him first and foremost for embracing our culture of Rhythm and being the best he can to make our culture proud. I am soo proud of this BAND in whole and I wish nothing but scholarships and blessings to all participants in this School BAND for their college days and pray they continue this same tradition at the high school for years to come. THIS IS SOO AWESOME Keep it up guys!!!
This is the best band I have seen, the timing with the music is excellent and so much more dancing. I hope to see more of these guys and ladies. A lovely video of kids doing what they do best. Congratulations to them.
And just like that...I spent an entire half-an-hour watching this clip from start to finish...with my attention focused on the young White guy at the front. He was absolutely mesmerizing. Is he the "JUSTIN" that every was cheering throughout this video??? 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏
I see a young man that didn't fallow the normal set in the air. He knew he had the talent, drive, and love for it. I was raised to accept everyone for the person not color. I love marching bands and where I live they are not big like other places. So I watch here. This band and others I see young men and women learning skills that will fallow them into their adult lifes. I am proud of every one who does it.
BEST marching band I have seen! From an oldie in Australia.....congratulations....the bandleader is really something!
Hey fellow Aussie. 😀
I’ve just stumbled upon this band this week. From what I’ve seen, those at the school call him Vanilla Funk. He’s excellent.
I'm also a recent fan. My favorite video I've seen so far is their 2019 Turkey Day march...it was excellent!
Hi there from Adelaide
Found this talented group of kids last year during pandemic. Amazing .. can't stop watching them
I think all need a scholarship...much peace
He’s got the swagger!

That duet with the dance girls was clutch. I've never seen it done before. The squad was clean
This HS band is EATING some of these college bands..This is impressive the whole band.
These young people are phenomenal athletes. How many of us could walk 2+ miles for a parade in cold , rain, heat and humidity and keep up those moves?
These guys are fantastic!
Marching is no joke!
The Dancers, Flag girls and Drum Majors work hard as hell!
As much as the Band itself!
Their Parade Marching is aweome!
I agree they are all working hard and doing an awesome job. Not just the white guy.

The entire band was Awesome
I can't believe they're high schoolers. I saw the band back there doing dance moves too. They're all phenomenal!

Nice to see more of the others. The girls are great and the band. How on earth all of them including the drum majors keep up the pace without mistakes. Amazing . I would love to see them in person. From Australia. Never get tired of watching of their videos.
❤️ to see them.i never get tired. All of them..

I would love to see them here in Holland. To perform when the DCI starts again. Not this year, next year.. and with Justin, the DM.. my oh my.. THAT is something else..😍👍
That energie from the whole band... wauw, Just wow!
Wow just woooow and Mr. JUSTIN is killing it !!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Shout out to the entire squad for embracing this young man ❤HIGH SCHOOL?????
I don't know which I enjoyed more, the band or the crowd enjoying the band! As usual, a great performance by all!
I enjoy the JD band very much. Great director. He brings the spirit. The students take over. Fun to watch and listen. And whatever ‘it’ is, JH has ‘it’. Wishing all Seniors much success.
I thought Howard D. Woodson Sr. High was the best band from 1972 to the 1980s. But y'all got us beat. Jefferson Davis. Y'all killing it.
Kudos to the faculty and band director who make this a top notch program. The sound, the moves, the energy all looks like a college program. Justin is doing a great job leading, and the other drum majors are also phenomenal. These kids are putting on a better show than so many professionals. Good for them!
I really enjoyed the band especially Justin. I love his performance in Mobile Monday
I’ll tell you in 1979, 80, and 81 I did drill team, cheerleader... all ... ALL these kids have spirit and pride! I just love em!
One of the baddest hardworking high school marching band. 🅿️

Never get tired of watching these guys perform! They're all good! Yes, I have it saved!!!
Amazing! Band director did a phenomenal job and it shows. The band sounds beautiful!!!
Lot of energy is needed to sustain this long march. Hats off.
I hope they stay together. Scholarships for all these kinds rockin this show. Once again why we need continued education for all who want it.
Alot of them are seniors. It's there last year.
And why we need to keep music programs!
@@MrGrifter123 Just three graduated. They're all going to HBCU. The poor kid that's left behind has big shoes to fill next year. The four of them killed it this year!
Culturally this is so brilliant. Sheesh. Makes me want to move there! I'm missing out!
Cant imagine how long they have to Practice and be a perfectionist. I love this band😘
These kids are the definition of bad ass. They’re just OWNING it.
First off those who are talking about that young man " Justin" because he is white is just shameful. You can tell that young man especially as a white male a drum major works his butt off to get to where he is. He deserves the credit he is due and so does the amazing BAND members behind him. They all look like they put in a lot of time to perfect their skills. He is not stealing anything. I appreciate him first and foremost for embracing our culture of Rhythm and being the best he can to make our culture proud. I am soo proud of this BAND in whole and I wish nothing but scholarships and blessings to all participants in this School BAND for their college days and pray they continue this same tradition at the high school for years to come. THIS IS SOO AWESOME Keep it up guys!!!
These guys are AMAZING!!! Justin truly rocks it with the rest and it shows that they all truly enjoy performing!!! ❤️
This is the best band I have seen, the timing with the music is excellent and so much more dancing. I hope to see more of these guys and ladies. A lovely video of kids doing what they do best. Congratulations to them.
And just like that...I spent an entire half-an-hour watching this clip from start to finish...with my attention focused on the young White guy at the front. He was absolutely mesmerizing. Is he the "JUSTIN" that every was cheering throughout this video??? 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏
All the drum majors are good!!!
Hard work pays off!! I wasn't ready! Bless yall for for embracing this man's talent🙏🔥
These young people learning how to put in the work, regardless of race, they are developing the skills for success and leadership.🤦🏾♀️🙇🏾♀️👏🏽
An awesome band. I bow down to you all. I would even have humbly cleaned the streets for your approach. Thank goodness no one was injured.
2:27 "I can do this all day"
The man just froze himself in that pose, and he was holding it for the longest too.
I see a young man that didn't fallow the normal set in the air. He knew he had the talent, drive, and love for it. I was raised to accept everyone for the person not color. I love marching bands and where I live they are not big like other places. So I watch here. This band and others I see young men and women learning skills that will fallow them into their adult lifes. I am proud of every one who does it.
That's how world should be and how Jesus told us to be. All brothers and daughters and sons of him. Love you all.
This marching band is insane. Very talented group
The guy in the front looks like he would be an actor. Nice moves, guys.🤗❤️🌷
