Director at Craigmont could work at any university he chooses ANY
Search up memphis mass band, he does amazing there as well
This was better than the college battles…. Both bands was bringing it, but the W goes to Craigmont!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Craigmont with W- Both of these bands were very good to be High School- Hard to believe that to me they Outplayed MSVU & ASU - Epic Performance
Eric French been in the game since I was in school. He is amazing and his program is a reflection of that. Deonte Kennedy has been showing that he can compete with the GOATs, and the program he has is showing the passion he and they have. I am blessed to know them both personally and those kids are blessed to be under such amazing leadership. Great job from directors and both programs!
Craigmont High School ....Standing On Business ...as usual..... personally I would love to witness this battle in a different setting!!!!
A more intimate setting for sure. Showdown style!
As a guy from the Carolinas nd former BGMM member I gotta say the band culture in Louisiana and Mississippi is incredible. All of these kids have bright futures 💪🏾
two beasts 🔥🔥 this was a great battle. props to both of them. french has a nice pen and that flowers arrangement sounds good 💪🏽
Carver water arrangement is absolutely amazing. Craigmont nowhere compared. Them boys right!!💪🏾🧡💚🧡💚
Craigmont got da dub but carter water arrangement was fye
Craigmont's arrangement a beast.
Carver did good but they didn't stand a chance against that tsunami. Excellent job Cheifs #C_HOUSE!
Craigmont came to Nola took home the win 🥳🥳
Craigmont showed up and showed out! Took home the WIN!
You know it's serious when the DM pick up their horn, lol. Good job both bands.
Don’t care what nobody say about craigmont I’m going to always give this group their flowers. Both groups sound good I don’t have an overall winner tho
i like how carver responded to clouds... both 🔥
That’s crazy there response was the same song they just played against St. Aug 👀👀👀 I didn’t know relating songs was accepted.
I thought that as well.
@@ScreamDemon2010Craigmont got blew out by karr and carver and almost every Nola HS band since yall started marching down here buddy.. when are yall gonna learn 🤣
@@cuttaboyjayN.O. Bands could learn a lot from Craigmont. Their arrangements are nice. They are just planting their feet and over blowing. Dynamics, intonation, and just hitting the right notes are still important.
@@edwinbatiste7550 French from carver got good arrangements too but i agree with you. Just these craigmont people getting too cocky
This battle was better then the SU vs MVSU 😮
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!!!!! I was just telling someone that yesterday
Congratulations, Craigmont!
Best high school battle of da year both is great!
Man Carver is a powerhouse💪🏽🔥🔥🔥
I feel like craigmont got the edge they have a battle playlist that versatile and compared to what I see out of New Orleans in this case I finally heard a decent response to clouds but where are the ballads New Orleans all I hear is marching tempo songs and rap it starts to sound the same …but the bands sound amazing this year fasho drive and the pressure y’all putting on the band world New Orleans kids are some dawgs and I can’t wait for the summer 💯‼️
The battles are not really long so we always tried steer away from ballads during parade season. Most songs are usually powerful or uptempo. That’s just the history since been.
Battle of the year
Carver the best in the city , but Craigmont put their stamp in the Mecca even waited over 2 hrs early for somebody to pull up smh
Carver nice, but ABE got it this year bro.
1-Aug
2-Carver
BOTH bands did an AMAZING job 4 sure!!! Best battle this Mardi Gras season........my favorites were CARVER'S "Flowers" and OF COURSE, CRAIGMONT'S "Water." Geesh!!!!!!!!
Craigmount I've been coming to Two new orleans for the past several years With outstanding Arrangements on there Aplus game "Sorry" boy not this year We caught on . This Mardi gras season Actually showcases musicianship and younger talent This is the year of middle school and high school Musician is born here........ From the time that you take You take your first breath of air......
Now this is a great battle 🔥🔥🔥
Everybody saying craigmont from way outta town 😅
Exactly they bias asl talkin bout carver bias 😂
Facts 😂😂 we all kno Carver took this
Pride a mfer 😂😂😂😂
Gosh. HS bands are not this good in North Carolina. Better than some of our local college bands.
Both bands are equally 🔥
This wasn't an outright smash by either band...
Craigmont always come to kill it! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Deonte is funny and entertaining to watch in heated battles 😂😂😂😂😂 But he’s a dam good band director! Gotta give dude his props 💯👌🏾🙏🏾
But I got Carver winning this one. Craigmont had some fire arrangements, Carver’s execution and blend is just better 🤷🏾♂️🔥
I’m so mad I missed this battle sheesh
Carver got the slight edge because craigmont arrangements was good but sloppy still good battle , carver on the other hand French getting them right the got the W especially with flowers but they also have good tongue and arrangements so carver got the W🧡💚
Craigmont took the Win fasho
CARVER!!!!! HANDS DOWN!!😍😍
Carver!!!!!!
Craigmont did a great job. I am so proud of yall
Carver has gained my respect...damn! Please stop bringing up Karr, Landry, and St Aug in this conversation. They're good bands but Abe and Carver are on a whole different level! Craigmont is musically outstanding as well which is why i can't call a winner in this one. Keep it up Carver coming from an Abe alumni, yall boys a monster too 🔥
Craigmont High School is the best.
CRAIGMONT TSUNAMI🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊👌👌❗️
Carver ... wow 🧡💚
They boys played clouds 💯💯💯💨
Carver with the W. But Great Job from both groups.
They were just overall cleaner. And more powerful. Craigmont wasn’t as clean as they were against Abe. Too many “bad” hangovers, trumpets missing and b-tones have bad attack and releases at times missing consistently.
Craigmont Tubas and bones sound amazing though. Mellos are good too. Trumpets are a good group but had a bad performance.
Carver Tubas are obviously their weak link. And everything else sounds amazing. I heard no missing with their screamers like Craigmont, no bad hangovers. B-Tone section sounds like one big b-tone. Mellos are solid. Bones sound good.
You’ve always been biased
If it’s a NOLA band against an out of town band, you always nitpick what the out of town band but don’t do the same for NOLA band. Carver’s Water arrangement was of no comparison to Craigmonts Water arrangement. Your opinion actually sucks every time you give it so please stop.
@@Nahakukineare the other 6+ also biased? 🤣
When two bands are battling that are fairly close to each other in quality the only way to determine a winner IS to nitpick the mistakes. At this level the only way to determine a winner is to see who has the most mistakes.
The other 6 are biased too. Y’all NOLA folk don’t like taking L’s from out of town bands. Y’all summer band took an L and yall couldn’t accept it. It’s no different here, especially since one of the directors that gave you the L this summer is also the director that’s handing L’s during Mardi Gras season. Y’all make excuses all day long. Also Carver ran after 5 rounds. They weren’t jumping in the parade. They were out of steam and book. They battled St. Aug for 2 rounds and turned towards us, realizing they was out their depth as far as going at least 10 rounds with a beast like Craigmont. They’re so fortunate to have die hard fans like you to give them excuses for not being able to push forward against a real winning band. They knew they were losing, that’s why they ran. Y’all just mad that the hype of Craigmont was real and yall just didn’t have an answer for anything they threw at yall. Example: Carver’s Water arrangement was poo
Craigmonts Water arrangement was far more superior due to actually having woodwinds to balance out the arrangement into a great hit.
Carver has no woodwinds because the director doesn’t know how to utilize them in any arrangement. That’s why his Water arrangement failed horribly against ours. It’s sounds good to you NOLA folk just having straight power and that’s it but Craigmont got power and balance and you just didn’t have answers for it. So take this L and try again next year. Hell, since you so smart, why don’t you go help them be better. That way when they take an L next year, you’ll have no excuses.
@@NahakukineStay mad, craigmont don’t belong down here when they gonna learn they not on no NOLA band level
@@cuttaboyjay ain’t nobody mad lil boy.
Stick with what yall know and that’s making excuses.
Yall cant tell me Carver First Song didnt give you the Chills Sheesh🔥
Which Carver is this
Craigmont is a beast its not even a question who won this battle. Good job to carver but they weren't ready
Seems like Craigmont had more finesse and Carver was more on power. Craigmont's versatility is obvious and I think they played more complex arrangements too. It was nice to hear some different songs for a change down here. I'm betting that they probably have a deep book. I expect most everyone will be biased with their picks based on pride and because that's just how it happens in these social media spaces. But if we're being honest Craigmont sounded good and brought something different to the table instead of the same old retread songs we hear over and over down here and that was refreshing. Carver was good doing their thing too but again it seems like they are limited in selections if we are being honest. Like they ran out of new material. I know that Carver folks will say that if they play Mary Had A Little Lamb clean as a whistle they should get credit for that so I won't even argue the depth in book point again. They were in that safe zone again as they tend to do and it is what it is. But overall nice battle. As always it will come down to preference. Props to both bands.
they weren’t limited craigmont play 2 7 minutes songs why wait around
Craigmont on ah different level
This is so crazy
What’s the name of the first song Craigmont played
“Clouds” - Chaka Khan
Craigmont with the W arrangements were sick… carver had amazing power both bands executed well. I love criagmont tubas and carver had great high brass. But criagmont arrangement where sweet af and them kids are gonna be prepared to go to any school and be the best there with the prep they’re getting with these arrangements
Carver was a beast but I got to give the W to Craigmont. Arrangements on another level
Great battle. And to me carver #1 in NOLA right now. Don’t worry about st. Aug. They not the top dawg. I would tie them with Edna karr for 2nd in NOLA. The aug has not returned to its pre Katrina self although they are close. Carver not only has returned to its former glory but are better then its pre Katrina self. Good stuff both bands
Cap ..this Carver is nowhere near pre katrina carver
Bro, I marched before Katrina. Carver under Rollins was a PROBLEM. We was more aggressive back in the day, so ultimately damn near every band had a full grown sound. Salute to French and his current band though. Love what he’s building. As far as top dogs, it’s Carver and ABE hands down. Karr can ride out with all that country Mississippi stuff they got going on over there.
@@trumpet08man dude have to be 17 years old w/ that statement. It’s no way pre Katrina bands compare to nowadays. 04 reed was damn near a HBCU
I like how you set the measuring stick (for St. Aug only) saying it’s US against the old US……facts forever.
@@trumpet08 😂 this carver has balanced power in every section just like pre Katrina but with more technical arrangements and cleaner sound. I had crab brothers that marched at carver, st. Aug. Kennedy. And Warren Easton pre Katrina.
🆘🔛🔝🌊
Carver 🌬️🌬️
Carver took this one
❤🎉 9thward
Would love to see French at TXSU w/ Brian. Them boys would take over the SWAC
He was already there with Brian and cranked out a few good arrangements every year. I am not sure about last season or this season but he was there from Brian’s first year to at least 2022 football season.
Cragimont being Liberian girl back😂
That on my mama struck a nerve I see. Carver yall could have waited
I feel it was a tie because each band showcased what they do best, shoutout to both band directors for a job well done. Sometimes there's no actual winner. This was a very respectful challenge between two outstanding Titans, this is one of the best battles I have seen in years.
Where's the majorettes?
I wonder what happened to Smiley H.S. from Houston. Them mfs a dawg too, the reason I'll never forget Mardi Gras 2001. They slapped the shit outta us with "Down Bottom" (Ruff Ryders Anthem). We definitely fought back but just didn't could not match that power. I'm gon have to look up some Craigmont vs Smiley battles
Smiley has been gone for years bro. Craigmont has never battled them.
@@KillaKevProd oh damn, no wonder i couldn't find any footage on them. Didn't know this, it's like they just vanished.
@mr.gonzales3623 yeah man their band director left to work at Prairie View and he’s now the director at Langston University, Mark Gordon.
Craigmount
Good job carver
That Clouds Craigmont played was nice but, whatever Carver responded with kind of canceled Clouds out. In my opinion. Both bands done really good. I would also like to see these 2 go at it by themselves without the surrounding chaos and distractions.
Lol who that was in the background tryna get a lil action
Craigmont didn’t come to play and showed them what the tsunami was made of.
Craigmont got them ..anyone saying different probably from Louisiana
C HHOOOOOUUUUSSSEEEE!!!
Carver got this one even tho craigmont kinda put up a fight but salute to both bands y’all both sound good
Carver with the W💚🧡
carver got this one
goddam all these kids playing though bro both schools 🔥🫶🏽
Craigmont W
Boy yall playing love is the key the same way Miguel had us play in fortier boy talking bout bet they won't pull up. 🤣
Craigmont niceeee !!!
Craigmont killed it! Periodt!🔥️🔥️🔥
Man i have come to really like this Craigmont School.
This is a great battle.
Craigmont with the W.
I like carver power but the arrangements gets muddy and unclear in the voicing.
It’s really hard to stop craigmont when they have so many weapons to push out a good sound. The wood winds, the TUBAS. Those sections make a big difference when you have good trombones.
Now don’t get me wrong carver was Good but there were just as many intonation problems with them so to nitpick Craigmont and not them is not fair.
The” Water “ comparison sealed it for me.
Craigmont has the whole package. I see why they say that dude is arrogant. He can teach.
Ok man thank you. HML anytime man. 313-595-5289. Mr. Kennedy Craigmont H.S. I currently have a student at JSU he just made Trump funk.
Don't let this video trick you bro we was out there craigmont was great but Carver was better it's just facts.
Facts I guess everyone in the comments went to carver or something.. yeah carver was good overall but Craigmont checked all the boxes for me they definitely get the W..
I was there Carver was Smashing them people man ...Carver with the W
@@uptownbennybee3I agree on the smashing perspective alone.. if it was a power battle I would easily give it to carver but personally I like the finesse in the arrangements craigmont brought to the battle.. I also liked craigmont book and overall they seemed more versatile than carver..
High School
Craigmont band definitely put in that work, periodd❤
I see a lot of Carver haters but who stood10 toes down ? Why Karr or da Aug ain’t battle em ? That’s who yall say da best ha? Man put some respect on Da University #1 in da city fasho💯 big up to both schools💯
Carver won, but Craigmont Director cancelled their battle against Karr & Landry because of a tragedy. St. Aug was called to get into the parade after battling Carver.
Before watching this… How Many School Colors Craigmont Got Fuckk😂??
You do know the colors for Mardi Gras right? It’s ok, you suffer from DQOI
Dumb Question On Impulse
I mean it was Mardi Gras right or do you not know the colors clearly purple,green,and yellow 😮💨😮💨you thought you ate I think not goodbye Period!
Craigmont on this one! More wow factor, better song selections & better arrangements. Carver was nice tho. Craigmont & Abramson would have been interesting! Those were the best 2 bands. Karr & Carver were next.
Craigmont dancers 🔥🔥🔥
Craigmont sounds like a college c house for the win
Craigmont was the better band here. Carver sounds good, but craigmont sounds better with better arrangements.
Simple
Thank you people don’t want to give them credit
Tie
you can barely hear carver tubas and they band director need a megaphone meaning the kids dont understand they band director hand gestures and craigmont just the better band. no other way to put it
craigmont got that W fs
Tae hit em wit dat 🔥 water and they didn't know how to come back lol. W craigmont. All haymakers
Carver won!
Yall know Craigmont won this battle man stop it.Those arrangements are nasty and being executed .Im from Louisiana.No bias here buddy.Carver is 🔥 too but they took an L.
Gotta give the overall dub to Craigmont! Carver had the slight power edge but it was countered by musicianship. I think the water arrangements shows that. Craigmont overall caught my attention more. Carver sounds great no doubt but they ain’t got no tubas & they arrangements pretty straightforward. Them trumpets for carver got some dog in em tho.
Round 1 - Carver
Round 2 - Tie
Round 3 - Carver
Round 4 - Craigmont ... Craigmont BD almost took over dancing duties for the dancer lmao
I love Craigmont's push for complexity in the arrangements. Sometimes rhythms get lost amongst all the call and response however, and sounds muddy.
Agreed on the Craigmont opinion.
Granted, it's expected when you're a high school; bands comprised of kids with varying amounts of playing experience.
Doesn't sound the greatest now, but they'll be some beasts in college with getting the work in now. Lol
Y'all must be from Nola lol
Craigmont didn't not come to play and they didn't they ate it up best band period
I’m sorry why do NEW ORLEANS bands use the same five songs for every battle at least give me 2 to 3 different songs but I guess they say if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Great job both bands tho. Those kids work hard to put on a show in front of millions cause we watching from home 2
How many battles do New Orleans bands have vs. out of town bands in parade battles? Out of town bands coke and have 1-3 battles. Mardi Gras parades go on for 32 days not a weekend. Our schools are getting into 5-8+ battles on top of marching in parades for almost a month.
Proof of this. Karr vs Abe just had a 12 round battle that is on smash time. So you know our books are deep.
But all programs have go to arrangements, but this isn’t college where you are going to have 3-5 new songs every week.
Craigmont always have a different book. On this day we never repeated 1 song. And we had been playing an hour before everyone showed up.
@@brozartmusicalmadness6413 trust me bro I know you didn’t that’s why I said it’s a different situation with each band. You know what songs to play against each band and you play chess
Lol how about the bands you like do more than 2 parades? New Orleans bands do 6 to 9, you keep seeing them because they do more parades than bands you like.
Congratulations again Craigmont. You all did AWESOME
Carver = W
Craigmont for the win.
Im sorry 😂Craigmont arrangements is on another level.. Carver sounds good too!!!!I would like for these 2 to battle by themselves.. to many other bands was playing..Ya better enjoy these battles is only a matter of time before these band directors get snatched up and become director over College bands, especially Deonte !
Yall thought Kennedy put his stamp on shit wait til the summer….. signed a percussionist #1st48
