Damn, dude is fine.

That's my roomie, Jayven

Lapierre, his daddy is-

Jimmy Lapierre.

The singer?

Yeah.

Everyone samples his

music, I love him.

Music is in his blood, so

on the line.

Do not pass go

with his fine ass.

Yeah, we don't all

snap our fingers.

That's what's up.

Okay.

Dr. Sean Taylor.

Look at you.

You know you got the

folks talking about you.

ANT's great black hope.

You got some big

shoes to fill, man.

ANT hasn't won a

classic since what?

Since Dr. Lee left to

conduct the

Chicago Philharmonic?

That's six years

ago.

Six years.

What you want, Kevin?

What I want?

I want to see my brother!

You know I shouldn't

feel bad directing over

at Southern State,

considering I did my

marching right

here at ANT.

Yeah but, loyalty was

never your thing, right?

Loyalty?

Were you feeling very

loyal when you challenged

me for section leader?

Mr. Big Shot Junior, just

couldn't wait in line.

Kevin, I took section

leader from you because

you ran along

with your ego.

No, you took it because

you always thought you

were better than me.

Oh... man, is that Nia?

Mmm, you know Nia still

look good, I divorced that

woman five years ago and

she still do something to

me man just, mmm.

I guess we

both lost a lot.

I'll leave to

your unpacking.

See you on the

battlefield.

So, uh, I'm supposed to

be taking roll of all the

finest honey's in here, so

I know I got to shake off

your name.

Oh what?

- No name?

Okay then, what's your section?

I mean, not that it's not obvious.

Oh, is it?

Oh yeah, I mean, AN always has the baddest

dance team of any band.

So, I'm a dancer?

Yeah, no doubt.

What the?

Hoo!

Welcome to hell week.

Craps.

Bags off craps!

So, word around campus

is y'all think y'all good

enough to drum for ANT.

Get 'em.

As of right now, I'm known

to you all as 'big brother

run tell that.'

- Greetings big brother

run tell that.

You know why?

'Cause when I play, I play

so good, it makes people

want to what bustin'?

Run tell that!

- Run tell that who?

Run tell that big

brother run tell that!

All right.

And I am your

section leader.

You will refer to me

as 'the storm chaser, '

because I'm gonna be

raining down on your ass

all during orientation!

Now, let's see what I'm

working with here craps.

Jayven Lapierre, you
