    People forget that it was Jukebox who originally planted that seed in Kanaan. As a result, Kanaan turned Tariq against Ghost just like he felt that Ghost turned Sean against him. Kanaan actually won in the end even in death. He had influenced Tariq enough just before he died to complete his revenge. This is why when you really take an honest look at it, without the bias and emotions, Tariq is now the villian of this story. He embodies Kanaan because Kanaan was the one to gave birth to who Tariq is now. Just like Kanaan felt Sean was no longer his son because Ghost gave birth to that version of Sean. This released the emotional bond which allowed him to murder his son. Tariq was no longer the son of Ghost. In his mind his father was Kanaan, which is why he compared the difference between both Ghost and Kanaan in his dialogue to Ghost before murdering him. This released the emotional bond which allowed him to murder his own father. Two unforgivable acts by two chess players.

      I've been thinking about Ghost and Tariq. I think that Ghost saw Tariq for what he was because looking at Tariq was like looking in a mirror. For Ghost he knew that there was good in his heart and that he wanted to do the right thing. When looking at his son he could see that( the good) clearly and what to pull on that string in Tariq's heart. Ghost felt like honesty would hurt Tariq more than the truth which is why he wouldn't get into his past with Tariq. Every time Ghost was honest look how it turned out. I think Ghost was trying to save himself through saving Tariq. I think Ghost will win in the end through Tariq. Kanan won the battle that cost Ghost his life but Ghost will win the War. Tariq at some point will make out the streets, learning from his fathers mistakes. I also don't foresee Book 2 going for 6 Seasons.

      @@Judah-144 I don't think it will go 6 either. At most 4 because Tariq has to spend 4 years in college to get his inheritance. Yes I agree that the Father's redemption will come through the son just like all the timeless mythos! Where Courtney Kemp messed up is by having the son kill the father and then bring about the redemption. This was a mistake. Luke Skywalker redeemed Vader even though he was tempted by the Sith to kill him. But he refused to kill him and make the same mistakes he did.

      Yes Kanaan was definitely alot smarter than people gave him credit for. He was the ultimate chess player constantly making moves on the board. What limited him however was his lack of vision to see beyond the streets. He was definitely a street genius but that's as far as it went. This is what seperated him from Ghost. Ghost had vision for beyond the streets and could adapt to any environment. Ghost's versatility is what made him superior in some ways to Kanaan. But no one could surpass Kanaan in his treachery!!!!

He also told Dre back in season 2 that Kanaan was someone who can't see beyond the streets. Even Kanaan's son Sean told him that all he is a thug and the only life for him is the streets. That truth triggered Kanaan and he shot Sean after that. Ghost's vision was far more superior! But yeah Kanaan brutality was definitely unmatched!

    In this show of all bad guys, Re-watching.. I noticed that Kanan was lightweight the hero of the show! He was like Obi wan Kenobi in a way too...
    Proof: Ghost and Tasha set him up and raised his son for 10 years while he wal locked up for something he didn't do!
    His story was introduced as revenge at first. Everybody he killed on the show crossed him and he reacted!
    Kanan if you notice was a very loyal person! every time he trusted someone, he got fucked over! from childhood to adult. thats why he go from zero to light speed! Is PTSD from being raised in violence trying to keep as much of his innocence as possible. If you noticed, He was afraid of Jukebox! He was hella vulnerable and we seen another side that mirrors young Kanan before His little brother and his chick killed his mentor and sent him to prison!
    Kanan was the victim of the show, as well as the reluctant tragic hero!

    Call me crazy but I don’t think kanan was ever actually In on kidnapping Tariq I think he only agreed because jukebox wouldn’t tell him where riq was unless he had the money and ghost. I think he didn’t tell ghost his plan because ghost wouldn’t be down with getting the money by robbing Tommy’s people and he still wanted the money hence why he still took it

    I think the beef between Kanan and Tasha is gonna be revealed in either Power Origins, or Raising Kanan last season.
    While Kanan Ghost and Tommy were working for Breeze
    Ghost was dating Tasha, and some lower level soldier in the crew harms her in some way. Now it would make sense to tell her man or Tommy, but the soldier is real close with Kanan. She confides with Kanan on some Effie and Cane type shit, asking K to take care of it. He doubts it, hearing from his boy that Tasha was “easy”. Later, him and mans are at a party and K sees some of his dirty ways at a club or some shit, now believing Tasha. Then he takes care of him afterwards. But she don’t fuck with him because of the initial disbelief towards it moving forward

    Kanan inadvertently caused Ghost’s death. I guess in the end he got what he wanted, though he himself would be taken out by his one weak spot, which was Tariq. Tariq was like the son he never had, but so desperately wanted. He killed Juke over Tariq, and we know how close he, and Juke were judging by Raising Kanan. Tariq is exactly like Ghost, which is the ironic thing, because he hated his father, however he got his resourcefulness from Kanan for sure.
