Unbelievable! The synchronization of EVERYONE! The discipline these students had to have had to do this production is phenomenal! Very, very impressive.
I wish more of our youth would get involved in this type of organization...and the many others that are available. These kids are gaining many skills and avoiding many pitfalls of life.
KSU y’all look good out there. Uniforms are crisp. Drum Majors were “tip toeing in they Jordan’s”. Lil mama on the left was rocking her hips, waving and sipping. I like I like. 👌🏿
My first time seeing this band. The girl on the far left was making me laugh. Her walk was serious. She did not come to play and was letting y'all have it. 😂 Go awf sis!!🤍
@@skippermoses8094 I’ve always thought the marching bands are the BEST PART of the parades! The floats would come by and I was in the street looking for the next band coming down the street! Good times.
I come back to this band again and again, love the cat stretchy step of the male majorettes. It reminds of the old zoot suit cats doing their dance in the 20's and 30's. Such pride in the band and in the school. Well done ladies and gents!!
@@aldaciochp8592 it’s called a black college bc they were founded after slavery when most colleges wouldn’t accept black students as a place where they could go to further their education, or get an education at all. Nowadays, every one is accepted and many white students do attend however, they are still a haven for black students.
Finally I get it, with your comment ref the old zoot suiters. YT has shown me a couple of these bands and I just thought they looked odd, with the crazy 'knees up Mother Brown' marching step and the odd dance moves - but yes, back to the roots of 20s and 30s hip catz dancers. The rhythm and musicality is epic. Not sure I see the point of the troupe of girls in swimsuits not doing a lot, though. I guess it's a culture that I don't understand from never having seen it til just lately on YT. But they all seem to be having fun - even if in some cases they look like they're taking it _extremely_ seriously!
I’m so proud of this band it breaks my heart that I can’t be there to support them in my hometown. I have watched this band from a far overcome so many obstacles within the last few years. I’m so happy to hear them sound so good and full. Keep on marching Kstate Onward and upwards!! MMT!! BOUT IT TONES FALL 2007 OPTONEMYSTIC
I came for the ladies, And they were amazing..... But this video and performance by the entire band was top notch... the drum majors just completely showed out... this was a perfect 10... great great job ... including the camera person...
these young ones put such a smile on my face, all lit up with fire and energy and burning the air with life and "Oh yes we will" I want to get up on my old feet and start strutting around the room.!!!!!!! Maybe I forget my young years when my brothers and I had that fire. If God could just give me that fire for one week, wow I can get this home so ratted out and what a dream that would be.
I grew up in a place where sports/cheerleaders/marchimg bands are not really a thing in schools (I mean, they exists, but unless youre a part of it, no one cares). And.....how the fuck is this not THE thing??? Football is a lot less impressive to me than this. Unbelievable lol.
My first time watching these kind of video's.... Amazing .... Beautify show ... The first two guys too concentrated and professional .... Good band....
I really enjoy their drum majors. They're smooth with really good choreography. Before binging these HBCU band videos over the past couple weeks, I hadn't thought of Torture in decades. Now I can't shake it.
Great performance. Y'all leave Sis on the left alone. She's only giving the people what they came to see!! A fantastic performance!😂 Probably her dream number 1 to attend school and number 2 to be on the dance team and 3 to Graduate!! Oh and 4...to take old girl's spot in the lead!!😔😂😂😂😂😂😂
Kentucky State Marching Band Fantastic job! Band sounding Strong!! We can hear you in Charlotte. .and band members singing awesome!👏🏻👏🏻 Drum majors Fantastic job!!!!
@s H You can't single her out for weave. God knows there's enough of that out there. She's not the only thick girl in the band. The only thing she is guilty of (in my opinion) is over exuberance!
I swear when black women and black men are united in positive entertainment it is a thing of beauty! From African dancing and music to African American, just fascinating! ✨✨✨🐈
Nice. Nice.. this is my first time seeing this band. Candace was fresh and kept my attention. Good sound from the band. DMs are being themselves and not copying from others.
I lived in Kentucky '98- 01. Over the those 3 years i probably went to about 10 KSU home games. Let's just say this band is a FAR cry from what they were back then. I am a die-hard SU fan. I am very impressed with where this program is headed.
R.I.P to my second father figure mr donavon level who made two of those drumline cadences I remember being called D.W as my crab name and yet I was teaching them a cadence one of my best memories being in boot camp with them I miss you guys and me level so much 💯🤞🏾
I just love watching this video! The musicians all play so wonderfully and the choreography and performance of the dancers and drum majors are the best on the web! Great job everyone!!!
Very entertaining to say the least. The Captain and that whole dance line is to be desired especially the one on the left.😂The band sounded good as they should.💪🏾💚
@@UniqueNatural sometimes being extra doesn't qualify you as captain. KNOWING how to lead and stand out are 2 different things. It's all about a uniform look when performance is involved.
Great job KSU! Very proud of this band. For the few whites on this thread talking about the lack of diversity or that there's only one white in the band, here's a little history for you - this is a Historically Black College or University (HBCU). That means it was a college established, after the abolishment of slavery, in the South where blacks were only allowed to attend due to racist Jim Crow LAWS (yes, it was the law - remember!). Blacks couldn't attend UK or U of L, among all other southern white schools, so they went to HBCUs. HBCUs never have and never will discriminate. But, ALL of the southern white ones did at one time. Although these schools were denied resources (again because of the laws) they survived, still exist, and traditionally have maintained predominately black student bodies. Further, due to this tradition some whites will not go to these schools even today but they can. Some whites have a severe case of amnesia when it comes to historical and diabolical racism, segregation, and discrimination. Just the facts!
Shame it still continues, maybe that's why people keep mentioning the girl in the left? Presumably the comments about slavery and racism are still significant in the US educational system.
Don't fret white person...for awhile there was an influx of "you ppl" on campus because it was cheaper for y'all poor white folks who couldn't get into UK... Thankfully Ky State has an excellent nursing program and professors and the are dedicated to keeping black history and legacy alive...it Is important to Black AMERICANS too.
The audio on this sounds amazing considering what is stacked against the folks that are recording and engineering/producing a big moving marching band in an outdoor metro area. Perfection. Showtime Web kicks ass.
I will give yall the song selection because I get so tired of get ready until I cant take it. I haven't played or heard Fresh in so long it was good to hear that one again. good job ksu
Sensational! I wanna see these exceptional, performers, marching in Belfast, Northern Ireland, on the 12th July!, To demonstrate, talent, showman/ woman ship!!! skill, timing, music, and gorgeous people!
"The Marching Band" With Baton in hand he led the band March went well as was so planned An people stood in the grand stand Band marched on to every command In step an in beat all across the land
That little sequence of steps they do towards the end of the song is classic as hell..... never in my marching band career being a fan of marching band have I ever seen some steps like that..d
This band shows a lot of promise in the future. I'm loving what I see so far! They are definitely gonna be a problem in the near future. Let's hear it KSU!!!
Always wanted to be a part of something like this. But my life and the people I went to school with just completely shoved me in a completely different direction. Now I don’t think I’ll ever get the chance to be in something as amazing as that.
I was a drummer in my high school marching band. It was fun. Then life replaced the fun. When you look back, no one cares who went to the prom. I didn't. No one cared who was the king and queen for homecoming. Life's priorities are more important.
Man these drum majors cutting tf up 🔥🔥🔥dance team on point
🤔Seriously?????🤐
OMG you're right! She's just really shaking her groove thing
Yeah. I really think this is the best of everything. Dance team not doing too much, just like the DD. Keep it neat and classy looking.

I think they are actually Dinkles. That's what my marching band wear but, yes they look awesome.
She has her own little party going on there on the end.
I loved it, this talent comes from the motherland, Africa, warm greetings from Africa, Ethiopia.
This is the kind of swag the USA should have going into every Olympics!
I like it! 😊 Organized very well. Hats off to young women and men.. 👏 👏
Love these kids. They put in a lot of time, effort and dedication.
What about studying instead???

As a dancer and mother of dancers/competitive cheerleaders I appreciate how clean your auxiliary squad is. GREAT SHOW LADIES!
Where are the white people watching the parade

I agree.. itz great to see this school still around..
I used to live down behind Papa John's so I could hear them practice all the time! I miss those days!
Probably the most underrated and cleanest drum lines I've seen...and good lawd these sistas are thick
Absolutely can't beat a black marching band!!! So much natural rythm and spunk!!!
Lmao, looks ridiculous

With a show like that, their football team better have won the game

@@ykMMD damn
😂🤣😂🤣
In new Orleans we go to see the bands get it n
What's weird is that in alot of cases the better the band the worse the football team is.
I guess all this isolation made me so emotional. I’m watching this and literally crying over how talented and fascinating these young people are!
Cannot stop watching those leaders. It is like an old time cartoon. They are so poetic.
I grew up in New Orleans and the marching bands were my favorite part of the parades! I love a good marching band!
this is soooooo me marching out my cubicle to parking lot Friday after work
Do you mean 6:00 or 6:40 ?
My first time watching these kind of video's.... Amazing .... Beautify show ... The first two guys too concentrated and professional .... Good band....
A good drum line makes all the difference in a band and y’all got a GOOODDD heartbeat!! Keeps everybody pumped and moving!!
I think I solely want to travel to America just to watch drum majors.
The Kentucky state all black marching band is one hell of a rhythm 🥁 machine!
these two men marching so differently, steals the show.
I really enjoy their drum majors. They're smooth with really good choreography.
Before binging these HBCU band videos over the past couple weeks, I hadn't thought of Torture in decades. Now I can't shake it.
Excellent my BLACK bros and sis! So proud of us always!
Now that's showmanship! Bravo! Think I'll watch it again.
Soy de Mexico. He visto este video muchísimas veces, los capitanes buenisimos. Las damas bellísimas y la orquesta fenomenal. Felicidadessss. 💯💪
Great performance. Y'all leave Sis on the left alone. She's only giving the people what they came to see!! A fantastic performance!😂
Probably her dream number 1 to attend school and number 2 to be on the dance team and 3 to Graduate!!
Oh and 4...to take old girl's spot in the lead!!😔😂😂😂😂😂😂
Far left is energized.. her present demands attention..I love it❤❤ This my first time watching KSU not bad 👍🏾👍🏾
2:32
That split and pick up of the cane was so smooth 😫👌
I'm going to try that next time I drop something... how hard can it be?🤣🤷♀️
This band needs more recognition. They sound good and the DMs are smooth.
Loved this. Great uniforms, loving the Spatz men. Great moves ladies.
Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪
Sound is fantastic!!! And we see you drum majors. Looking good, so smooth...

The fact that most of the comments are about the girl on the far left is cracking me up😂😂😂😂
The funny thing is I didn't notice it at first. When I saw the comments, she's hysterical!!

..which girl ya talking about 🤔 the one at 0:52, far left?
She has School Spirit! 💯🤘
Some of the best drum majors I've ever seen! The band is awesome too.
Am i supposed to cry watching this!!!!!! Incredible all the way around!!!💚👏👏👏🖖

Nice. Nice.. this is my first time seeing this band. Candace was fresh and kept my attention. Good sound from the band.

How did she get this?

😂 every performance
My thoughts exactly 🤷🏾♀️
This has been in her head from childhood. I was the same way about the snare drum lines. That pop and crack would get my attention every time!!
That's some of the girliest wiggle-walk moves to be found in the history of girlie wiggle-walk moves. Fantastic.

Just added these good folks to my bucket list. just so happens that I've got a buddy in Kentucky to stay with for a weekend.
I really enjoyed that. Real entertainment throughout! More please!
