Jason Weaver celebrated a full-circle moment with the Kappa Kappa Psi earlier this week.

According to HBCU Gameday, Weaver was inducted into the Kappa Kappa Psi National Honorary Band Fraternity. The milestone ties back to one of his most prominent roles as Ernest in the classic 2000s film, Drumline.

His ‘Drumline’ character was also a Kappa Kappa Psi member

There is a famous scene in the movie where Ernest is secretive about his plans with some of his fellow Atlanta A&T band members in a restaurant. According to ClutchPoints, Ernest was a Kappa Kappa Psi pledge, and Devon Miles (Nick Cannon) and his crew discovered him at his probate ceremony.

What does this moment mean for Jason Weaver?

The 46-year-old shared the news on his Instagram, detailing his experience at the fraternity’s national convention in Lexington, Kentucky.
