After "accidentally" discovering Justin Heideman, I became a big fan of the Jefferson Davis High School Band. Vanilla Funk set them aside and pointed out the hard work that band did to achieve their great performances. Great Band Director and leader..
Say what you want to say, but, for me it's refreshing to see a black and white person with the same interests supporting EACH OTHER!!!!! It gives me hope for humanity. It show me we can all come together for a common cause and supporting each other.
“When you fit in, you disappear.” -Wisdom from such a young man. Prayers going up for all these kids; make us proud fellas’, do well in your classes, make good choices, and show the world the power of music!✊🏾🎼🥁🎷🎺
I am sorry but just like Southern Dolls would have held Bri (McKinley Pantherettes) back, ASU will definitely hold Justin back...The Stingettes are fantstic but those Drum Majors are total military style, Justin has way too much funk to ever be a Drum Major there... I wish you the best of course. .....Before you can be a DM they would most definitely have to change their style. For Dominic and Xavier, Talledega is great and of course Jackson State, the best Drum Majors ever.
Congratulations to you, Vanilla Funk, on graduating and also being accepted to Alabama State University. I know you gonna kill it at Alabama State just like you did at Jeff Davis. I can't wait to see all the future videos of you in the black and gold. GO HORNETS!!! 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Respect to these young men and indeed to all their band colleagues. They represent what is best about America at a time when too many of their countrymen are determined to drag people down
Congratulations Justin,, Xavier and Dominic on your HS graduation and acceptance into college! With the intensity that you've performed as Drum Majors, you'll do well! We're in your corner!
I started watching Jefferson Davis videos 4 days ago and fell in love with this band and all the members. What fun, dedication, enthusiasm, energy and excellence. What great band directors and dance directors. I feel like I gave birth to all these wonderful young people. Actually I would be your grandmother! Good luck to all 3 of the drum majors going on to college and I hope the bands you will be with are wonderful people like you.
I still can’t believe you guys are a high school band. Wow! I thought you were already in college. Congrats to you all. Marching is the best thing one can do in high school
Too bad al this is coming to an end ☹️. I love you two guys and wish nothing but the best for you guys... How can I follow your future adventures???? I don’t want to lose you guys..... You’ll always have my support 👍👍👍 You guys stole my heart ❤️ (and I’m a guy) You four drum majors are absolutely AMAZING!!!
ASU is my stomping grounds. All I have to say is don't be stupid towards Justin. His heart is clearly in people and music. No old school biases needed. He will do very well in the ASU band. And hey... if he wants to be a drum major and works hard for it, be fair and let him go for it. Being an ASU drum major is no joke no matter who it is. It's like being in the marines for bands lol. Wish you both Justin and Zay the best. Great stomping in Jeff Davis band!
Although I have never met any of you...I feel like a proud Aunt because I am so proud of you! With a great sound, precise marching, fabulous dance line and of course the "we own this" drum majors, I was amazed your band was only a high school band. Stay positive and keep God first. I know you will shine and excel in whatever you do. I was hoping one of you would go to Bethune Cookman and be a member of my favorite Florida band. I hope you and your families stay safe and I wish you all love and peace.⚘😊
Justin go baby! Light that university on fire baby! Dominic, Jackson Mississippi is not ready for you either. Xavier sweetie go and turn Dega around. All of you are so awesome!!! Justin I know people have called you everything. All of you remember, it doesn't matter what people call you in life, it's what you answer to. That's the only the only way you can be disrespected if you let it in. I have no idea why your story was sent to my inbox, but I have been blessed by it.
Congratulations Justin 🎉and Mr. Jackson congratulations 🎊 to you as well!! Sorry I didn’t get your first name! Y’all are both amazing majors!! I really have enjoyed watching the band but Justin 💕I couldn’t take my eyes off you! So energetic, sharp moves, and with intensive and strong moves!! I can’t believe y’all are a high school band! I thought y’all were college band!! 💞I’ll be following yall on your journey! Be safe, love life, have fun!! Love From Tenn. 💗
Dang Justin I had my fingers 🤞🏽 that you were going to join Jackson State 🤣😂. However, I happy for you and I'll be cheering you on at Alabama State 💪🏾✊🏾👊🏾
I followed this band footage on RUclips...you guys kept me entertained and glued ..and interesting to watch more and more ...congratulations to all these young men
That is going to be soo good flipping between ASU, Talladega and Jackson State!!!! When I saw this video, I said this one is going to make my head hurt trying to keep up with the three of you guys!!!! Congrats to each and every one of you!!! Xavier, Dominick and Justin show out for your band. And please keep in touch with each other and be one another's rocks in your future endeavors. God bless you three.💓💖💓💖🎊🎉🎉🎊🎉👏👏👏
I am so proud of you all, and I pray that when you all get to college you’ll have continued success. Study hard, stay focused and please don’t get carried away and forget what your purpose is at that school. You all are so on top of your dance routine. I’ll be watching and praying for all of you to be all that you can be!😊❤️💜💙💚
Congratulations 🎉 we are from Texas and we don't have that much fun watching bands down here except Sam Houston High School in SATX ♥️...but when we lived in Columbus Georgia we were excited to see the funk, fun and energetic bands...we will keep watching ASU, JSU and many other great colleges and high school marching bands!
Congratulations JUSTIN,XAVIER,DOMINIQUE 🙏🙏🙏👍🏼 I want to send you three guys some items to carry to college with you and it is green and with the year 2020....
@@mulkmumin4267 My guess is that he will start off on the trumpet and then try out for drum major like he did at Jeff Davis, but that's just my guess on what he will do.
All of y'all have a very bright future, when I was in school I was in band and played trumpet and done solos and duets, can't wait to see future videos
I’m excited to watch y’all in your future endeavors and thank you for the wonderful memories you have left us. Y’all are amazing. Congrats & good luck in all you do💕💕💕
Congratulations to you all! Was sure hoping you would come to OSU! But everything you said, makes perfect sense and you will do fantastic wherever you go!
WTG guys! 🥳Congrats on getting into your respective colleges. All of y'alls hard work and dedication have paid off.🎉 Congrats to the entire class of 2020.🎉 It's been AWESOME watching y'all this year just rockin' it!!🤩🤩 Good luck in all of your future endeavors. 🎼🎵🎶
All I can say is Congratulations to you all and I have been watching for awhile and love watching you Justin. God bless you all! Hope to see more of you Justin in the future.
I have watched this band several times on you tube, every where they go to perform. I am so happy that they got into college. I hope they continue to do well, and I hope they show some performances of him in college.
I just want to congratulate all the boys on such an amazing year! I have loved watching y’all and the band perform this year. The talent is just off the charts! Good luck on your futures and I’m looking forward to seeing you guys in the coming years! Congrats from Cali!
I have been following you for so long I feel I know you! Congratulations on being accepted to ASU Justin!! Knock em dead there!! We will miss you and the other seniors!!!❤️
So exciting for Dom and JD. Props to the Jeff HS band directors, what a job. With all this media, the Band, the Dancers, cheer, Drum Majors got better which is a testament to your passion, discipline and dedication. It was a joy to watch the kids grow over this last year watching on You Tube. 🔥👊🏾🤞🏿🤩🙏🏾 Good luck to all the kids, Congrats to the 2020 JD Seniors.
Congrats to you guys. I know that you will cherish the beautiful, exciting high school memories that you all made. When I watch you all, it makes me wish that I had put forth more effort when I was in high school so many years ago.Keep enjoying your young lives, stay safe, be careful who you befriend, and most of all, and most important , always honor your parents and acknowledge God almighty.Live ready.Jesus is coming soon.🥰😇
You guys Made me cry at your stamina and your powerful statements in your March! Power on the beat! Entertainment top of the line! Can't wait til Covid allows you guys back!
So happy for these fantastic drum majors! Would you please list the school selections they have made? (Audible problems). Thanks and good luck! I hope to follow them all in their future band careers!

He and the Stingettes will be epic. Edges and heads will be scalped.
Respect to these young men and indeed to all their band colleagues. They represent what is best about America at a time when too many of their countrymen are determined to drag people down
This is the love this country needs right about now. So cute
These three and the band need a movie!
This would be a great movie. I just discovered Justin a few months ago.

I love seeing the comradery and pride you guys share.

Make us proud. Be smart... be good. REMEMBER TO BE A GOOD INFLUENCE. GOD BLESS.
“Be a good influence” is some of the best advice you could give to a drum major.

Is he going to play 🎺 or go out for drum major
@@mulkmumin4267 My guess is that he will start off on the trumpet and then try out for drum major like he did at Jeff Davis, but that's just my guess on what he will do.
Why ASU Drum Majors don’t n can’t March like JSU J5
