I love to hear Bands like this play popular Black music...it shows how kool our younger generation is, and how that old racial BS from our parents time is no longer a barrier for our youth!!! Keep it up guys!!!
look go ahead and say who has a better band version of this song but dont forget. whos near Hollywood.. oh thats right USC. the same band that made a platinum album and appeared over a 100 tv shows and several movies. my bad its just that this song was produced IN Hollywood which is located IN Southern California. Fight On!
It's played WAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY too fast. It's supposed to swag and bump...this is ridiculous. Sound like they playing flight of the bumble bee out there...southern bands play this correctly...or at least at the right tempo
I just can't believe some of the comments and mentality of some of you all, that are stating over and over that pwcs are stealing our music.Why is it stealing when we as hbcus are not upholding "OUR" own music-we are noting playing ragtime or jazz or black composer's music-such as william grant still. But when i get on here and listen to the HBCUs play classical exerpts and marches-I don't see white people say we are stealing their music. Lets just appreciate them finally appreciating our music
Some of these comments on here are ridiculous. Leave this song to the hbcu's? They're stealing our style of marching band? Geesh, I guess that means WE can't play marches or WE can't play the music of Grainger, Bruckner, etc., because generally speaking, that's they're style of music. Go sit down somewhere with that foolishness. When are we gonna break this circle of stupidity? I don't hear this BS when I see white people playing jazz....
Youtube NSU Spirit Mix 2010, click onto the first one, fast forward to 5:40 and check it out!!!!!! Honestly, look at the entire clip and see the why i love HBCU'S!!!!
@croman6537 actually its a HIP-HOP song, britney spears is POP, secondly I never said that it was a balck people's song (learn to read posts better) Thirdly YES that particular STYLE of performing band is and was ORIGINATED by HBCU (historically black colleges/ universities) WILLIAM P. FOSTER, CONRAD HUTCHINSON JR., ISSAC GREGGS all black men originated and perfected that style of play and performance. So yes it is a form of stealing and/or mockery when I see PWC's do what HBCU bands do.
@Smoke821 I agree the arrangement is garbage but Dr. Bartner is a genius just not at this. Norfolk State had someone on their staff back when I marched that graduated from USC.
@chicagomarchingbands lol this is sooooo sad! PWC'S leave this song to the HBCU's.......1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Up!. Lawd I love my black college bands, Norfolk spartan legion stand up!

really??
they stole rock n roll from us
so now they are stealing our style of marching band?
I see more and more PWC's trying to do what the HBCU bands are doing these days
Not knocking their musicality (because they do sound good) but its kinda like a white guy wearing blackface on a tv show to me.
