What's your favorite part of Power Book III: Raising Kanan?
Streets need a body ‼️
The song at the showcase: Street need a body🔥
LIKEWISE SALUTE MY G!!![999]
They hit the nail on the head with casting! They are very believable - that's the key.
The whole last episode was dope ASF!
Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.
🙏🏾
Damn...😩😳🤔💯💯💯👏👏Ain’t never heard it put that way but heard the narrative before💯💯💯Salute baby girl💕
True words
I love this. Beautifully put.
What made you say this
Mekai really got The mouth movement of how 50 talk...he played the role well.
yea even before this interview i peeped that!
@@sumgi1537 facts.. Especially when he told juke he had to pop the cop for his moms.. I was like nah that's 50 😂...
@@hadesBOLT yo!! thats the exact scene i was talking about haha
@@sumgi1537 Word??.. No shii.. You got a great eye brother.
Real family blood
Kanan just casually having a conversation with his self😂
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Right
lol
😂😂😂
50 looks like a proud father
same with him and tariq
Yeah but why he gotta be holding the nigga up in the air like he the lion king or some shit ?
That’s crazy cause that’s not even 50 kids
FINALLY.... BECAUSE HIS REAL SON IS SUCH A DISSAPOINTMENT
FINALLY.... BECAUSE HIS REAL SON IS SUCH A DISSAPOINTMENT
Tariq, Kanan, Meech Brothers etc - Gosh i really love the whole cast of all the series. They did a great work. In front and behind the camera
on god they are all perfect for their roles!!! they all have great futures!
Flenory brothers
@@StayAlert_StayAlive thank you i got confused 🤔
I love seeing 50 cent and his team win! I feel like he's taken a picture similar to this with G Unit back in the day but the success which he hoped for them didn't quite fruition, now he's got one with the new G Unit of acting talent he's built! All the shows are amazing, all the actors/actresses are on point, can't wait to see Tommys spin off too, love the friendly rivalry Power Book 2, Raising Kanan and BMF have! Everything 50 touches turns into gold! 👏🏾🐐🔥🎯🎬🍿
🙏🏾❤️
Factz hopefully one day I could b on one of the shows
This is where I believe that the Wire dropped the ball, they could've had so many different spin-off shows and prequels, Raising Kanan is definitely entertaining to watch
It's not too late
@@davanteduncan5781 I agree, it's not.. I wish they would do it
Avon and stringer prequel
Facts
Unfortunately, the show wasn’t gaining popularity until the final season. The writer said some of the actors (Snoop for example) were still selling dope in Baltimore neighborhoods while being on the show because they didn’t believe it would actually take off.
Patina Miller is my new dream woman. Every time she came on the screen she was stunning and her energy for the role of gangster mom and ruthless drug dealer is a joy to watch.
Ayo Mekai! If you read this, you’re doing a great fucking job! Can’t wait for the second season!
Fr Mekai is awesome
I realized that mouth movement too.😂😂.. He nailed that
What I love the most is how everybody so comfortable with fif
I’m so proud of Mekai man we grow up together and watched him grow even more I wish him nothing but the best
Oh you knew him irl
50, pure genius!! Mastermind, I can't get enough of this series!! Proud of him, being real about his life and his experiences out there in New York. Giving people jobs and opportunities as well to excel their careers and better their lives!!!!!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Crazy how both of their name has Curtis in it. Not a coincidence 50 chose him
Didn't even realize that lol!!
50 look like he recreating a G-Unit of actors
Great perspective
Mekai does a great job. Every now and then i think im looking at a young 50... And funny his last name is Curtis! Patina Miller is amazing also. Great show.
His accent in the show all the way down to his face mannerisms are all on point. Mekai be giving it his best 💯
He’s killing it on raising Kanan respect
Can’t wait for season two of Raising Kanan 🔥🔥Mekai killed it and there is a lot more to come from him. I can’t see Raq lasting out season two and i can’t wait to see how Kanan links up with Ghost and Tommy 💯
I bet youre eating your words now Tariq is doing so good
@@a.b.3098 nahhhhhhh
Power book 3 better than power book 2
Acting
Writing
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
50 cent is a fucking legend 👑
I also noticed the kid don’t really move his mouth that much in the show when he talking 🙌🏾💯
Yuuup😊😊 it’s art at its finest. I don’t know why I expected Ol boy to be hood he’s totally not
They literally look like father and son
Raising kanan became my favourite out of all them. The show is done super well. Loved it!
NOBODY IS MORE PROUND OF THE KING OF NY & WHAT HE'S DOING 4 THESE YOUNG DUDES COMING UP!!![999]
50 out here dropping bangers back to back ready for season 2 of ghost
Yup 👍🏾 November 21st
After seeing season two of raising kanan so far, i had to come back to this vid… mekai really came a long way and nailed his role as Kanan. He got the 50 cent talk on lock too its crazy
Mekai playing 50 is so believable
You’ll not seeing the amount of people this man is putting on
They look just alike 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I had low expectations for raising kanan. He proved me all the way wrong 10/10
I just finished all of the power shows (as well as BMF) and Raising Kanan is definitely my favorite. They captured the 90s in NYC perfectly. Especially the scene when ole girl pulled the boxcutter out lol
It's going to be very interesting to see how Kanan links up with ghost and tommy!
These young black kings 💙 I love it here 🥰
I love YOU 🥰 *Que the simp comments* 😂🙄
🥴
When you watch raisin kanan, then go back and watch the first power, you definitely look at kanan in a different light
Very very different
What’s crazy is I just watched the whole series this weekend and immediately when I saw him I was like, where in the hell did 50 find someone to play him that
talks and holds his mouth just like him.
Crazy that he doesn’t talk like 50 in real life. Actually searched TH-cam to see if he talks like him in real life
When you watch it, it's crazy how much he has 50 cent down pat. The mannerisms and way he talks is so unbelievable 😮😮😮
He has the same smile as Curtis!❤❤😂😂
I had to revisit Power to connect more with Raising Kanan’s development can’t wait to see how it grows to bring in a young Ghost and Tommy.
They really look alike
It's uncanny how much they look like Father and Son; give the Power Casting Director a pay rise.
I love everything fifty touches power, raising kanan, ghost book 3, bmf, power book 4 all cast from each and every show is super f....cking lit. Man they better give Mr.Curtis"50" Cent Jackson what he so deserve: A GRAMMY,OSCAR, EMMY
50 cent is one of the greatest storytellers.
Dude really changed his voice in Book III. Great actor
This young man is very much on his way to greatness
All these shows are amazing plus For Life before it got Cancelled 50 dominating tv right now this is still a win for HipHop culture
Keep up the good work Mekai I am so proud of you!!! Your doing amazing job on the show!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Please let give 50 cent is flowers 💐 don't wait until he gone 🙏 50 took a lot of young black of the streets much respect 50
This show is great! My favorite of them all so far.
I’m so happy for them young brothers , to have this much success in they 20s us some ti celebrate for real .
I’m waiting on the next episode to drop💯
Kanan and Young Kanan
50th putting together that new g-unit team with this acting shit
Marquise in his room punching air right now. Marquise is suppose to be sitting next to his dad but the show goes on ....🤷🏿♂️
Omg yup🤦🏽♀️
That's what ihe gets for choosing his lying mother over him
Having ungrateful back stabbing kids I can relate too, so I can see where fifty coming from now
@@ayana188 tell me your story I wanna here
@@ayana188 I feel you!
Casting this guy was arguably one of 50s best decisions. He actually looks and sounds like Kanan.
50 a real boss.
Big ups to 50 man. Much respect to the king 50
I seen all the shows 50 made and making very addictive dude got multiple checks coming in every direction 🤦🏾♂️💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
So awesome! You can tell he's excited to play 50!❤
I can't wait to see their penultimate season from RK at the end of this year (December of 2024)! right after they finished shooting on 5/21/24! ❤️🔥 Ky-Ky & CJJ3 are 2 of the kind! 😁
Raising kanan is the best of the power spin offs
This young kanan made me love the show.
They sound sooo much alike and look alike! They definitely made the right choice with Mekai
You see that bit they just talked about?
The "him talking and slightly opening his mouth like 50 Cent does" bit??
Yeah,I legit clocked that,as well,on the show...Job well done,Mekai!👏🏿👏🏿
I really like this young man!!!! Seems like a good dude.
curtis x curtis.
EVERY SHOW OF POWER FROM GHOST,TARIQ,TOMMY,KANAN IS THE BEST I'VE BEEN WATCHING SINCE DAY 1.PLEASE CONTINUE EVERY ONE OF THEM..50 HAS THE BEST SHOWS EVEN BMF.. DON'T EVER STOP..
That is so true he got the whole mannerisms of 50 speciall the way he talks wow
These interviews with the Power universe actors is showing you what 50 envisioned with G-Unit (the group). He wanted each member to be grateful and independent of him but instead they remain at the same status as they came in the game, haven't done much in almost 20yrs & blame 50 of everything they're not.
One of the best shows out...period!!
Imagine being in that circle of young actors and 50 treating them with up most respect. The days of diddy industry's are over.
Curtis Jackson is a GENIUS. The way that man's mind works boy. 50 Cent is a bad kid all grown up.
“i had to, dude was comin after my family”
thats wonderful bro and salute to you i was contacted about BMF before the pandemic but i was in the middle of moving back to my city Flint Mi and all the shows i was contacted for around that time was just for me to be an extra and or independent films so i turned it down not realizing they were talking about the actual BMF and they said i looked like a main character so about a year in a half later i started seeing the advertising for the show and seen 50 cent was over it etc now im salty af i feel like that would have been my major break and every thing so i salute you young brotha for being courageous and stepping out on faith and landing this major role
A whole shady aftermath lol Tommy probably em 🤣 😂 💀 lets goo goat
Boy got that Sheron Barber leather and tee on! Sheesh 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’m buying 3 books when this coming out
50 cent you are right the viewers watch from beginning to the end and be mad asf when it's no more episodes.lol I be like dang I can't wait to see wtf happens next.
Mekai's boots 🔥🔥🔥
Raising Kanan the best execution out of all of them , I only fw power cuz of kanan , when he died the show died... and tommy hard n 2bit but that’s it ..
Man Mekai has the toughest critique playing kanan 50 himself but hes done an excellent job so far. Cant wait til the next season Raising Kanan comes back.. so many plot twists in the shit its crazy,!,
Lol He Could Definitely Get Away Wit Telling People He's 50 Cent's Son 😂🤦🏾♂️
Kanan is an amazing actor!!! It's like watching 50's younger twin. Love the show. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Oh Ok now I know why 50 talks without his mouth moving much. Also Mekai picked that up very well and as the story line progresses you can tell he gets better at it. Very interesting stuff and much respect to 50's creativity. Homie has struck GOLD with the Power World
Raising Kanan is my fav.. love me some Raquel
We need a raising ghost and tommy
FACTS
Them boots Kanan got on hard!
A nice little chat between Curtis and Curtis😂
I love the show power
Raising Kanan is the BEST in the Power universe!
