@@troywhite5147 please explain your comparison what is unhealthy about playing a song exactly. Cause that unhealthy food can kill you how does that compare to the song being played exactly?
Kev, you have no idea how much I appreciate this right now. With Rona running rampant closing down everything? Wow man. Please don't every trivialize or minimize the work that you're doing. Damn! I need that. NSU Spartan Legion stand up!!! Behold...
@@KillaKevProd your work is both necessary & appreciate. My son plays for this band & when he was in HS in Newark, NJ I was able to be at every marching band, jazz band, rock band performance & record every moment. Since Norfolk is 6 1/2 hours away this is no longer possible. Your work allows me to virtually be present with my son & the band & still show my support. Your recordings & your work is now mine. Even though I hardly ever get a clear shot of him it's ok cuz I know & feel he's there & I'm there with him. A thousand thanks for what you have done, are doing & will do. Bless you man. This is no small endeavor
This is why I love me some MEAC. It’s not just about powerful brass blasting over everything. It’s about an appreciation for the woodwinds, balance and tonality. The Spartans, A&T, FAMU BCU all have this down to an art form. Exceptional job as always Spartan Legion.
@@elliotc5040 would you like your daughter saying she has penis on her mind. Negative thinking. It's the same thing .... Nothing different sweetie. I played in the band also for years. This is just bad. If I don't think about the youth who will.???
@@motorcitybuds2117 damn you're right. As a young person my life was all rainbows and unicorns until I heard this song and now I think murder is just great.... You hear how silly that sounds? Give them some credit. They aren't idiots. They can vibe out and enjoy a popular song without having some uncontrollable urge to do something stupid. This whole "devil music is poisoning our children" nonsense has been going on for decades since jazz was invented. It was silly then and it's silly now.
@@nicholaspedroza9060 ain't nothing fun about worshipping , the devil's work.. if I don't think of black youth , who ...people like u..lol okay... They could of did a better song, yes they excellent.... But... It was definitely not a good choice of a song.smdh
New subscriber. *NOTHING* beats our HBCU marching bands! ❤ My only negative comment is food for thought: What an uplifting song that is. Let the fullness of it sink in man: I've got murder on my mind. I wanna steal a human being from their loved ones and leave nothing but devastation in my wake. For real? We do realize that sinks into our souls right? We know our kids are influenced by that right? And we wonder why the murder rate within our own communities is so bad. There's a lot to it but let's not pretend music has no influence. We gotta do better fam. Said with all the love and passion in my heart. We gotta save ourselves because nobody else will do it for us. Change starts from within.
All these comments calling nsu trash and our song sucks is whack🤦🏽♂️ it be the people who never even played or know how to play like shut up. Like we are grown and I’m reading comments like “this not school appropriate “ WE ARE 18 AND UP. Stop comparing nsu to any swac bands who aren’t musical and only play loud.
Maybe you right and people wrong to want and expect better from the supposedly youth that's on the right track in school. Being grown isn't a age it's a mind frame, it's a certain level of respect and understanding. When I say the song is distasteful, it's because we're in the streets yelling BLM and on the other hand jumping and dancing to a song by a killer of two people.
Sounds great but bad choice of song hopefully this is fun in the band room only because the wrong person hears this you know it can go left. People to sensitive right now
Drequynn Rod They sounds good but would not be better then a few SWAC bands. Not to mention that the 🐐 is the the SWAC. The JUKE of course. Often imitated but never duplicated. Norfolk is good but if we keep it real, we know the JUKE is the “litmus” test
I don't know about that Labella...what you're mistaking for fluffing is actually dynamics which is rare for HBCU euphs/baritones. They are taught how to truly "play" the horn instead of ROOOOOO-ing all day.
Sorry I don't care how good your band is the song sends a. Bad message. this song is not something we should be excited about we're celebrating or even singing or playing. I don't care how popular the song is, it's not the song that should be celebrated. there's nothing positive about the song and I don't care if it's pop culture or not. in a marching band should not be playing, or singing the words. I can't believe that the song is even popular. I love music, but this is ridiculous. Are you joking you got murder on your mind. Should we excited about that
I have to agree with you there, that's the only thing I don't like. Considering we're a higher learning institution and especially an HBCU. I ain't saying they should play all gospel, I hope they at least substitute the word "murder" for something else going forward. Sounds dope though!
@@archiecornell2582 with the lyrics, I love the sound. I just can't get behind a song about murder. However I am very open too all types of music. I am open minded, but I am drawing a line. I have more too in this subject, but you get my point.
Shorty was trynna crank on that clarinet lmaooo stop playing wit her 😭🎯
Right she cut all the way up
she had murder on her mind
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dawg 😂I was weak ash 😂

They need a bigger band room
Yup my band is way smaller but big band room
They once had one....it was next door with steps. 🤷🏾♂️
A bigger band room? Not a more positive song? Ok. My people are destroyed 😢.
@@1KINGLOVE1 I could be rude and tell you to shut yo snowflake ass up, but you're a snowflake so i won't do that.
@@1KINGLOVE1 yeah I’ll rather get a bigger band room and play a more negative song 😁

Why would they do that particular ( I got murder on my mind theme,There are way better Themes they could have done.
#Troy White they probably them the students pick it. But do it matter it’s not like they really mean it. All that matter is they sound good
@@youwish3439 All that matters is they sound good 🤣😂 Alot of food tastes good but do that mean that food is Healthy?

There is no other band experience like that the HBCU bands playing during halftime shows at football games.

Even at 18 you have a lot to learn. You're still talking like a child and should probably stand down on this one.
It be the rhythm deficiency folks I swear smh

Sounds great but bad choice of song hopefully this is fun in the band room only because the wrong person hears this you know it can go left. People to sensitive right now
Too sensitive, two people were killed by the song writer maybe some people are too numb. If the death of a person isn't worth sensitivity then wtf is?
ua-cam.com/video/gitjfN0Wa-o/v-deo.html
I know exactly what happen with this artist and why he is locked up. But with the current events going on it shouldn't be played or even thought of.
This was in 2019, that's not current.
I didn't say this was current I said current issues
I'm loving this.....
Great job by all!

Why are these band rooms so small. SU JSU Alcorn all of em so small
That I’m so hood don’t hit the same
Boiiiii you hear Billion Dollar back there man!!!! Smhhhh
Not feeling that I'm so good arrangement but I can say they still sound great. I would love to see them vs a SWAC band.

@@rovelt3802 Pv Owns Murder On My Mind in the Swac besides Georgia Alumni Mass Band Who also have the best arrangement! Imo.
Ro Velt they have a much cleaner sound that the JUKE however it’s not even close in power.
@@WaveManMike I hope this isn't an example of them being cleaner because there are several fluffy moments going on on that euphonium section.
