Drumline is a 2002 film about Devon Miles (Nick Cannon), a teenager attending A&T University in Atlanta on a marching band scholarship for his skills at drumming. When he arrives, he makes a connection with Laila (Zoe Saldana), but his place on the band isnt going as smoothly. At A&T they require their band members to read music, which Devon cant do. He also clashes with Sean Taylor (Leonard Roberts), the percussion leader, as a result of his arrogance and cocky attitude. Meanwhile, Dr. Lee, head of the band and the person who gave Devon his scholarship, is under pressure from the schools president, President Wagner (Afemo Omilani) to ditch the music-based routines that incorporate different genres and focus on using new, popular songs for entertainment value. At a game against their rivals, Morris Brown College, Devons cocky attitude ruins everything for him when he plays a member of the opposing teams drum, considered a serious insult. He is kicked out of the marching band and Laila is embarrassed of him. Devon learns that theres an easy way out of his situation- joining the Morris Brown team, where he would get a scholarship and not need to learn how to read music. He knows his heart lies with A&T, but to stay there, hed have to prove himself, which would include not drumming for the band, at least for a while. The teams will show down at the BET Big Southern Classic, and Devon must decide- which team will he be on when they both take the field?moreless
