We played them both in their entireties but the movie folks edited them to end the way that they did. The part where we sloppily brought our sticks in at the end of the cadences in the final battle scene was done that way by design for the movie.

      Thats actually really interesting, learn something new everyday. The only Cheese term ive ever heard of is "too cheese something" meaning "finding an unintended (usually easier, sometimes hidden) alternative solution to something" often used for games. for example player SimpleFlips often asks "did i just cheese this level by finding a hidden Dev Path?" Our language is weird isnt it?

    • @jacobcantor2597

    if my memory serves me correctly when shooting these scenes Morris Brown had to perform lesser cadences as they where showing on camera to be far superior to the fictitious A&T squad which was composed of some legit percussionist especially the one that played Nick Canons hands. If you want to do some content with one of the actual players on the snare riffs and cadence arranger to create some cool follow up content and to get your questions on why they choose certain arrangements I will make that happen. I saw your impossible audition video and went down the rabbit hole reminiscing on those days we heard those cadences every week for football games. let me know I am game for it.

Me and my friend Jimmy were great snare drummers. Everyone wanted us to play for them. After graduation it pretty much stopped. You my friend are going to blow up on CZcams. All the snare players on CZcams are half as talented as you. I need to learn all over again. Thank you for your videos and inspiration. PEACE ✌

    Interesting you say MB should have won at 9:18 because I saw an interview years ago where the director said MB was CLEARLY the better drumline so they had to do everything they could to downplay their talent to make it seem like A&T won. Also, I believe this was MB's actual drumline and ATL A&T was actually a high school- Southwest Dekalb High School. They have the same yellow & blue colors.

    You are right, Morris Brown used beats from songs in their cadences. The other drum line used the bass line intro to Rick James' "give it to me baby". It's an hbcu tradition. It's heartbreaking that it was actually Morris brown's last major band performance. The school had some administrative issues but regained accreditation in 2002. Sadly missed in the hbcu family. Good luck on the comeback. Nick cannon's crew had to win for the movie's sake. Great work Apex.
