      me 90s I 100% agree. Being an SU alum and Doll fan, I can honestly say there is something that I like/love about each and every one of these squads! And that’s ok!

    • @jwesley6320
      @jwesley6320 5 лет назад +9

      me 90s yes it’s so easy being bias towards team but this video makes us remember these are still college students and young adults that’s are doing great while dancing and in classes

    • @jbu2009
      @jbu2009 5 лет назад +3

      i tried and i agree with you..i think all these ladies and teams are very good..but the ggs just was over the top disrespectful..if you look at the other teams..they kinda stayed away from the ggs...

    • @Nik_Key

      jbu2009 see AGAIN you’re coming for the ggs wtf wrong with you tbh the ggs and the jsettes are great friends 🤦🏾‍♂️ they even visit each other at school 🙄 damn these girls do have a life outside of dance 🙄 how was the ggs disrespectful? They sit and watch people like you discredit them ON EVERY DAMN VIDEO they have 🙄 YOU DONT EVEN KNOW THEM PERSONALLY so to bash them on how YOU felt is dumb af #DearJsettesCheckYourFans

    The part about criticism is so true. I don't even look at the comments anymore because they are so bitter and mean-spirited. Mel, I remember watching a video and people were talking bad about you, I didn't know who you were at the time but I began to watch you because of those comments. They were untrue and you became one of my favorite dolls. I mean elegance, style, technique, beauty... and they had the nerve to talk about you. I bet they couldn't hold their own leg up for longer than 15 seconds lol

  • @maddycameron6091

      Melody if u see this I want you to know that seeing this video brought tears to my eyes BC being an hbcu style dancer is one of my goals and I don't have much support behind me and I thank y'all so much and for the impact y'all have created. I would absolutely love to meet y'all , hopefully at dance affair. And it would be great if you did a panel session on your channel discussing questios you all get about the hbcu dance life. These questions could come from RUclips comment section Instagram Facebook, etc. Thanks for all you do!

    The 1st year of joining a group is always great because you’re joining that which you’ve admired from afar & hoped to become a part of. After that, you’re dealing with peers who you haven’t looked up to & lose the ability to be bright eyed & in awe of anything - things are up close instead of distant (dreams). By the time you’re 30 or 40, the whole experience will seem great. You’ll realize that all of your peers where young people (kids really) doing their best.

    1. Mel is gorgeous!! 😍😍
    2. I would looove to hear more from Kayla G about the jsettes. She gave me so much tea that I've wondered about for years.
    3.The Golden Girls are so turnt! I loved their personalities the best!
    4. I find it funny that the guy that brought up the fb groups question was one of the main ones along with Kentrell and a few others bashing Gabby on fb live in one of those groups when she was picked captain over his 'friend' Jordan.. Just messy..
    5. Great Vlog! Can't wait to see part 2! 😍😍

    Great footage but the music could've been left out while they were talking. You can't even hear what they are saying it sounded rambled

    I think it would be helpful if you turn the background music down a little it was kinda hard to hear all the girls talking with the background music so loud.
