I thought I was by myself in my reaction. I've never been so proud to see Black Excellence displayed to the world like JSU Band did. So proud of them!!!!! Couldn't help the proud tears.
As someone who isn't an HBCU Alum but have watched many Rosebowls Parades, JSU Sonic Boom, literally reset the spice bar for all other HBCU Colleges in this parade going forward. They came, understood the assignment, ate and left zero crumbs. They even had the Professional Entertainers celebrating them. That's how you show up!!!!❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥
I literally went to the rose Parade just to see the JSU Sonic Boom of the South Marching Band. It was a bucket list moment for me. They blew every other band out of the water that morning. It was Powerful and inspiring.
What's amazing is hearing The Sonic Boom and The Human Jukebox playing at the same time in the stadium at Jackson State. I'm so glad JSU Marched in the Rose Bowl Parade. Southern University got marched in 2020. JSU is more than deserving of this honor. I love being part of the HBCU Family.
Jackson State does not play😂 I live in Mississippi near the university.. sonic boom 💥 they are loved .. phenomenal band. I love to hear them compete and them trumpets sound off 🙀😊omg
From the UK where this isn't even a thing...WOW! Absolutely brilliant and jaw dropping sound and dancing from the front runners. Love the Luther Vandross medley! GO JACKSON STATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Drum majors did the dang thang. I'm sure they have never seen such brilliance. J-Settes looked phenomenal as usual. I love those uniforms, classic beauty. Great songlist as well and the band sounded great
😂😂No you were not alone. I wept with pride seeing those young men and women do their thing in such spectacular way!! I marched in band decades ago. I attended an HBCU-NCCU in Durham NC. BTW those plumes set their performance off!!❤
On my 3rd watch of this dynamic performance. I've attended and watched many Rose Parades, this by far knocks every one out the park. Great job young people!
We were at the 210 underpass and the energy was magic! Very inspiring for the all the high schools bands there that day. I feel honored to have been able to see this band. Thank you!
As a Florida A&M alum, I have to say this is one of the best showcases of an HBCU band I have ever seen in my life. The song list went CRAZY! But HERO!?!? It just doesn’t get any better than that! J5 and J-Settes cut up at high energy the entire route! The unison of the band and the plumes on the hats was next level! And the sound…TOP TIER. Also, shout out to the banner girls as well! They lead the way with BEAUTY. I love all bands and styles, but I will say, nobody check off all the boxes like SBOTS! Congratulations on a brilliant performance young ladies and gentlemen!
This was absolutely incredible. Holding Out For A Hero had me in tears. Great job....y'all didn't just seize the moment, you took the moment to the stratosphere!
So proud of seeing the Boom representing my city Jackson, Mississippi, the whole state of Mississippi and the entire HBCU band culture!!! Let’s gooo Boom!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Man I am so proud of JSU! I’m part of the WSSU family but my God, I give honor and credit where it is due!! You represented the culture well and I love you all for that❤❤❤ Continue to be on one accord and continue to allow the blessings of the Lord to fall upon you in Jesus name🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Outstanding - to be able to march and play and dance with that level of energy for that amount of time and distance is incredible - the drumline and brass were phenomenal!
What an absolutely phenomenal performance! Proving that GREATNESS comes from Mississippi!! Thanks to all of the band members for a superb performance! You made Mississippi PROUD!!! 💙
Very proud of you all. This LA-based Rattler was out there cheering loudly like my degree was from JSU. You all were marvelous at every event! Magnificent job everyone -- Dr. Little, Ms. Crowley, (sorry don't know all the names) J5, the Jsettes (love me some Shelbie leading), the entire band, staff and the media team !!!! 10 STARS- HIGHLY RECOMMEND. 😉
Phenomenal performance!!! I love our HBCU bands and I was just so proud of these members! I was beaming the entire time and celebrated each and every one of them like they were my nieces and nephews! Congratulations to Jackson State!
Didn’t attend JSU but my inner band geek and Drum Corps heart was completely filled as I cheered at my tv watching SBOTS set the standard while representing! Super proud of yall for a job very well done!!! 10/10 🔟💐🔟💐🔟
@jiljwc Glad to see someone who represents both Show Bands and Drum Corps. Sometimes people try to pit them against each other. Totally different styles, both are great, why can't people love and enjoy both? My son is prepping for his 4th year in drum corps in 2025. This will be his third year with the Mandarins (Tuba). His first year in 2022 was in Open Class with Gold.
JSU, showed up and showed out AND showed everyone else how it should be done. Y’all as always did the dang thing and continue to make us proud. Thank you for ALL your hard work, giving us your best, and never allowing yourselves to rest on the last performance, but bringing it every time!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I'm more of a dancer but that drumcorp when the music stops is just perfection! I love seeing us show out on the west coast! HBCU are not over here, so its a brand new experience for a lot of people. Those J-Settes and those high left kicks! 🔥
@@deborahbelk1990 I agree, when i graduated back in 2004 I had no idea about HBCUs, if I did I would’ve loved to go but I ended up going to college here in So Cali. I would’ve loved to be around more people who looked like me.❤
💙 Hi...I've been watching Thee Boom for quite sometime now...I am 🇲🇽 🇺🇸 born n raised in So Cal!!!...You are Thee Badest Band on Thee Planet!!...🙏 Thank You for filling my ❤ with Pride!!!....tears of joy right here!!!....Rose Parade 2025!!!🎉🎉🎉❤🍾✌️
I’ve been in LA for 10 years…….but went to NC A&T and loved the band life. I’m always proud to see an HBCU on the west coast performing bringing some flavor. It takes me back. The high steps, the energy.
I’m a Florida Girl and have been following JSU for years and to see them on TV in Rose Bowl Parade made me proud! They did the dang gone thing! I too am in tears watching them hear on their channel. Job well done!
To the young people in this band, wonderfully done!! The musicianship, stamina and poise you put forth was a joy to watch. Your being in this parade has brought joy to a lot of people. More than you will ever know. Beautifully done children. Beautiful. Directors of music……well done.
Can someone please tell me why n the heck I’m crying for??!!! Maybe because as an Alum of JSU I know what they went through to get to this very moment…or the arrangement of the music is so perfect that it tugs at your spirit and makes you feel all the things…or maybe it’s because this moment has been long overdue. Get Ready Sonic Boom, you’re just getting started 🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️
I’m ‘01 JSU Alum and crying as well!!! Soooo proud of their performance and the videographer who captured this!! Representing HBCU’s well….to be in their presence is next level. Loved hearing them practice on the yard (campus). Well done 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
As a true blue Jacksonian, this absolutely makes my heart smile. To see other people get excited and cheer for y'all gave me chills. And shout out to the students who toughed it out after the first DAY of band camp when you decided to join the Boom. Lol😂 Hard work,discipline & dedication pays off. Kudos to all the students. #LuvDaBoom
Indeed. Those young men and women dedicated themselves to the band AND their educations. Their hard work PAID OFF and was on full display at the Rose parade! EVERYONE who watched them live were cheering with excitement...and PRIDE from those of us who are HBCU ALUMS!! Great performance 💥 BOOM!!❤ Wonder how many young college bound Californians who saw the BOOM and Googled Jackson State?
Luv Da Boom! I unfortunately haven't seen the Boom live...yet! I'm so proud of these kids! Going to the Rose Bowl to play is big-time exposure, and this band deserves it! Go Boom!
My god. Perfection. This is hands down the best marching band performance I've ever seen and heard in my life. Goose bumps! Just--perfect. And the video/audio. Perfectly edited. Damn...! 🎼🎵🎶🎷🎺🥁
Yes!!! This performance has turned a new leaf for the Rose Bowl if I’d known that an HBCU marching band was participating I would have watched maybe even attend this was needed thank you Jackson State March Band and to the Rose Bowl administration keeping this going ❤
Standing Ovations to JSU Sonic Boom!!! Way to Rep HBCU Family! The Drum Majors are EXCELLENT Bar None!! And I am a True NSU 💚💛FAM!!!! Pasadena You heard and saw The EXPLOSION 💥
I was in my HS band and we got our style from JSU, Pine Bluff, TSU, etc. I didnt go to an HBCU and when I watch JSU, I regret not going. They are definitely on my bucket list of bands to see!!
Los Angeles native Angelino here.. JSU thank you for sharing such a powerful and well executed performance with us. I watch videos of your performances, but to see it live on New Years Day was epic!
I was so depressed today. Watching this probably saved my life. You all are amazing!!! Thank you for every bit of work you all put into this. Inspirational isn't even the word... this is beyond❤
Hindsight...how many of these spectators would not have homes in the next week, due the fires in Southern Calif.? Tomorrow is never promised to us. Be thankful and rejoice in today. Thank You Sonic Boom for the joy you brought on that day 💥!!!
Watched the Rose Parade in person for the first time, and JSU Sonic Boom and the Kyoto Tachibana were my two fav bands. I've been on UA-cam watching both bands. Love the marching style of the SB and the swagger of the drum majors.
Man this the baddddest!!!!! Band I ever seen had me up in here groovin to them beats and shawty in the front with the baton was handling her business ❤
@@gracelove4978 yes she's the tiny one working her tail off missing no beats small legs but might she bring them to the chest like see me😮😊 I've watched several times just to watch her perform
Should be renamed Tournament of Roses for Sonic Boom! JSU stole the show!! Watched them at Band Fest and couldn’t hold back tears from being so moved. To consider all the hard work and passion of every single person. They’re on a whole other league of marching bands. No one can match!
California Native...born and raised, (grandparents from Louisiana) love seeing HBCU''s perform in Cali to show out...Black Excellence...We here and are top tier....Thank you JSU for a High Class and professional performance!
What an exceptional ,excellent ,well done job ALL season yall went out with a BOOM 👏🏾👏🏾 From the drum majors to the jsettes to the band. I really enjoyed watching & cheering.

Thanks to Dr.Little & his TEAM I loved EVERYTHING since the Merge. Congratulations Seniors and Ima miss J5 smooth self’s🥲
