Gianni always on 10 and Mike always on chill. Perfect yin/yang balance.
Nbs they equal each other out 😂
Always ! 😂
Fr and it’s crazy because Micheal and Mekai got blessed with the opportunity
he isn't on 10, baby kanan is on 10. almost annoying if I didnt fw him already
I love how Gianni explains everything because I’m currently trying to start an acting career so it’s definitely useful😂
Good luck to you 🙏🏽
good luck on your career i am also a struggling actor
Right you could tell he takes this acting thing serious.
@@biscuitbrickz never struggling always aspiring! 💪
Rooting for you
he playes kanan really well, especially the way he talks with closed mouth
Just like 50
50 as an adult, after he got shot
@@propertyofflanagan but it works, you can see the young 50 in him.
seriously love this podcast. Gianni's energy in tandem with Michael's
laid-backness is everything lmao
Yes. Such a great pair.
@@propertyofflanagan they equal each other out , no homo
That's not homo bro. Don't worry about nothing being gay my g
Unless you have a 'pause' moment with your boys 😂 proper banter
I was an extra for season 2 of Raising Kanan and I got a chance to meet Mekai Curtis. He is literally one of the coolest people I ever met. Salute to him 🙏🏾
I was gonna say, he seems like a super nice dude
Please spoil stuff for me
@@misterbk1791 i doubt they’d do that 😂😂
@@jordanbaker4833 they all 3 seem like very cool people to hang out with. I feel them no shit. Would even be crazy if they would make another TV series with those 3 guys just another story. It can be weird but if done right its gonna be a banger!
Did you have to sign a NDA?
Gianni really a whole vibe by his self and then all ya together thats just unmatchable energy right there
I agree
Not flew him out like an ig baddie😂😂😂 love you guys
Took me out 😂😂
Deeeadd 🤣💀
The chemistry of these three is so on point. The Power Franchise/Universe cast are genuinely good people with good vibes. I love this for the young men!
That’s cool how the next generation of power is taking it to other levels. I remember seeing the first trailer for the season 1 wow
Facts if you been following from season 1 of power it’s crazy to see how far they’ve come
@@Creative_Journalist facts
You know you made it to the big leagues when you got the manscaped sponsorship 💀
Facts!!
On the third episode LOL
Manscaped is everywhere FR! 😂😂
😂 I read your comment as soon as they started talking about Manscaped
Raising Kanan is another type vibe I really can’t explain it like the whole storyline is amazing
Agreed. It almost seems darker than the other shows.
@@nilesstark that’s because kanan is the darkest character I love how it shows why he became so heartless
@@GMQub Yep. Funniest part would if we get Robert Downey as his uncle Tony. Jk.
@@nilesstark 😂😂
Robert my manz
📖🔥🔥 it just hit different, it’s most definitely the closet to reality
Y’all are killing this podcast game

MeKai Curtis..he speaks very well. His intellect is crazy!! Black king I see you! Love his vibe overall. Very authentic yet genuine and down to earth.
I really like Mekai's energy and he's adorable. He's doing a great job, portraying a young Kanan. I wish him well, on all of his endeavors.
Micheal: “wait you couldn’t even say deadass?!”
Mekai: “we couldn’t even say deadass”
Micheal: “deadass?!!!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😭🤣🤣😂 cryin
Time?
We said deadass in the 90s tho
@@ReppinCTandATL we said bet too
Brayden is really a huge gem to this show. He asks questions that we want to know but can still give you the behind the scenes perspective for more context. Love & Light!
& he hype af!!!😂😂
This was the most FIRE podcast YET 😍 the energy in the room was insane!!!!! Had me smiling the entire time. Between the 3 of y’all, Y’all connected on some genuine brother shit and eye loved it !! I hope this union between you 3 lasts!! It’s rare to see!! ❤️
Me too I was laughing the whole time
Nbs. I love to see shit like this , everybody just vibing & joyful
Cant wait for Raq, Cane, Tommy, Juke to be on this show
it's a shame we'll never get to see all 3 on the screen at the same time on a Power episode
@@Barnz23 100% agree!!!!
I knew Michael was very wise and genuine as a person but him saying "...and we got to provide for our people" is the best part of what he's doing took him to another level in my heart when it comes to consideration. Stay blessed and I have no doubts that the best is yet to come for you. 🙏
Man I love this podcast! I like how Gianni explains the process for actors. It helps us actors get a better explanation of how everything works. I hope to be casted in the power universe and can sit down with Gianni and Michael.
The sponsor plug was funny asf😭 man I love these two💀
I love how Gianni ALWAYS elaborate on all the film lingo!! ❤️❤️
Gianni's high energy complements Michael's rock back vibe PERFECTLY!!!
And I just love MeKai
Now y’all gotta get Cane, Diana or dru or either Famous or
young Juke come on y’all 🔥🔥🔥🔥 keep them coming
They will trust
We want everyone.
Got to get my girl mealinie liburd
Next week it’s Diana’s turn 😁
They all have 💀
Mekai charisma, wisdom and illuminated energy and presence is absolutely dope he is a force of grand depth!
The energy of these episodes make me so happy. Gianni loves Mike and it makes me happy😂
Like Brayden loves Tariq 😂😂😂😂
You know it’s a good podcast when a 55 minute episode feels short 😭
My favorite Power podcast right now! Raising Kanan has “Get Rich or Die Tryin” movie vibes
I hated that movie. They should re-make it
@@rods7028 it was one of my faves when it first came out 🤷🏽♀️
But it’ll be cool to remake
@@ThatgirlB_gaming I hated it. It could have been so much better. I felt like it did poor job of telling his story
This is the first time any actor has gone into specific detail of how it all works, these two are going places
Yooo dont listen to the comments saying y'all doing too much. Just keep doing what y'all doing. Y'all being authentic and we can tell. This is a game changer.
The joy in the room is amazing, 50 will be remembered as a great man for sure. ♥️♥️♥️
No Michael did NOT just call us "Old Heads...." 😂😂 Being a 70s baby, the 90s is definitely my era, so Mekhi was absolutely right by saying those small details in the show matter...we definitely notice. That's what makes it so 🔥🔥🔥 The details, the music, the clothes, the cars, the furniture, the lingo, etc. Soooo on point!🎯
Yall are doin yall thang with this podcast! The chemistry is crazy as always...love the detailed explanations of the behind-the-scene process. It gives the audience a clear vision and understanding.
Lastly, what makes yall stand out, the interview process doesn't come off so tight or scripted. It's relaxed, fun and authentic. It's like fam comin together choppin it up and havin a good time together. Keep up the good work fellas...you have a gem on your hands!👏🏾👏🏾👊🏾
Love Mekai’s energy y’all gotta bring him back
The crew has it for real! MeKai is well spoken. Gianni and Michael still killing it! Hell I wanna audition for one of the shows now😂
They must’ve had the lights beaming straight on him… the boy is SWEATING bricks
Petina Miller is hands down the best Actor/Actress in the Power Universe. It also helps that she fine AF.
You ain’t lying
On god
Clicked faster than Kanan shooting Detective Howard 💀
Lmao! 😭😭😭😭
Y’all gotta cut the AC on for my guy. 😂 The sweat gets worse as you go on. Good interview tho 👍🏾
41:05 “Tasha have some respect, I just lost the love of my life.” 🤣🤣🤣
You two Kings are the definition of Yin & Yang. You balance the f*ck out of each other, so keep that flamboyant (Gianni) and chilled (Michael) energy going! Also shout out to Mekai, another fellow king in the making!
It’s cool to see actors offset to see their real personalities! Love the show and all 3 of these youngsters are incredibly talented! Keep it up fellas
That AD was wild!!! 🤣🤣🤣 caught me off guard haha
They are wild 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I loved how mekai was so in sync with y'all
Kanan's wardrobe takes me back to high school every episode💯😂😂
Lmao mike and mekai have interchangeable outfits that’s crazy. Same sneaker just diff colors but they could legit trade tops and still match 😂😂😂🔥
Watching These podcast really help me knowing the in and out of acting and how the filming industry works. Shit really inspires and motivates me to keep pursuing acting 🤧🖤
Exactly especially at this young age they get to see everything first hand
!
“y’all couldn’t say deadass????”
“deadass???” LMAOOOOOO
Tasha have some respect I just lost the love of my life🤦🏾♀️😂😂😂
The crossover we've all been waiting for!! 🔥🔥🔥
Not sure if we can crossover to Raising Kanan...but we got you.
Can’t wait to get 2bit on 🤣
If anybody has noticed on Raisin Kanan, Kanan wore a pair of Air Jordan 5. The pair he had on were a 2013 pair noticable by the jumpman logo on the back. Original Air Jordan 5s came out in 1990 but the had the og Nike Air logo. Not the jumpman.
Probably cost too much to get the originals. They probably just said fuck it only super sneaker heads Gon notice. Lmao
That's called an anachronism
Mannn, u paying to much attention to shade the show 😭😭😭 don’t nobody care bout that, they capturing the 90s perfectly
@@eastsidesleeze7364 im not shading the show pussy, i love it im just pointing out something i noticed
Tyriq was talking a lot more now then he was when Effie pulled up. My boy Michael was so shyyyy Lml
Big fan from Africa, Ghana🇬🇭 to be precise. Can’t wait to see more of y’all
Brayden, Tariq & Kanan🐐🐐🐐🔥🔥🔥
I love have y’all explain the acting process and terminology in depths
MeKai sweating like crazy lol. Shout out to him and his performance
I thought I was the only one that noticed 😂, his energy different for sure.
I was looking for this comment 🤣🤣💀💀 and his the only one sweating. Take the hoodie off bro 🥲
y’all have good chemistry i love this podcast
also 50 cent is left handed. I noticed Mekai uses his right hand to shoot his gun. Just a little subtle nuance I picked up from power the first series to Raising Kanan. But Mekai you are kiling it bro!! Love everything power related.
Fun fact- In real life- Mekai is left handed!
And he shoots the gun left handed
This was a great episode! The chemistry and brotherhood is 🔥🔥🔥. I'm looking forward to the recap of the Raising Kanan episodes. I could listen the 3 of them all day!
I Love the energy of the room y’all power cast is really a big ass family💯 nd u can tell Mekai was sooo happy to be apart of the podcast💯😂🤝 Y’all are really a very talented group much respect to all y’all the crew and all
Give my guy a handkerchief to wipe of the sweat. Great episode ♥️
lmao they’re all sacrificing comfort for drip😂it’s the middle of May and they’re all in jeans and hoodies
Lmao he was sweatin’ crazy 😂😂
Sweating the holy drip 💧 out himself poor baby 😭😭
Right. I think they paused and let him cool off. Lol
These kids are our future. They are killing it and hustling hard for their money 💰
That little sponsorship for manscape was cute 😂
Try outta of control 😂😂😂
Gionni thank you for telling us the behind the scenes of the film industry💪🏻 it’s cool to learn about what goes on on set and with the crew
I like how Gianni is breaking things down in through out the episodes in this wonderful podcast.👏👏

Tariq & Brayden off Stanfield 😂😂😂
The final 3 episodes should be
3. Tommy - Joseph Sikora
2. Ghost - Omari Hardwick
1. Kanan - 50 Cent
Final 3 fuck all that make it the next 3 n no final
Whatever as long as no Nauturi or Tasha whatever
@@rashidmohamed3516 why u wouldn’t want naturi
@@rashidmohamed3516 no Tasha or Keisha 🤔🤔🤔 why wouldn’t you want them lol
@@kingjoshthesaucegod1595 cause she’s Tyreks mom. She could talk about the dynamic of their relationship and how she got there. So much to talk about with her
This is how all young men should be just happy and excited about life these are bright fearless ambitious individuals #salute
I love all three of these guys... they just makes my day... All three of them is OG gangsters Kanan Tariq and Brayden I just love the crew my favorite characters ❤️❤️❤️
Gianni breaking down the behind the scenes of being an actor or the production side🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾
We need Meech and Da’Vinchi next!
That's not power but would still be cool
Just Davinci
Big facts
Never gonna happen... anytime anybody even mentions BMF on this show they shut it down
On God
This was such a good podcast ! So entertaining
Love the chemistry of these two. It really works. So helpful for Gianni to explain things. I definitely gives a better understanding of what actors go through.
"And we get to provide for our people's" Made me smile
Tell Starz to give yall the clearance to show the references of the scenes you talk about during the podcast!!!
Clicked Faster Than Kanan Shooting Shawn
Lmao
I love how Gianni is explaining everything !
Mekai fits young kannan perfect & I agree patina miller is my power crush ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gianni and Mekai talk more than Michael 😂
The perfect balance
Michael is a calm person😂
@@deontehayes217 Yep like Tariq is 😂
Gianni gotta chill and let people talk more
@@rblog4576 Gianni was actually a lil bit more chill this episode tho he wasn’t that bad as the first two episodes
Mekai was literally sweating bullets lol
I loooove how Gianni breaks Everything down!
Thank you soooo much for the wonderful Podcasts! This is the perfect way to get the Power Universe into one place. This podcast gives me my weekly Power kick that I need!
Omm I’m i
The best part of my Tuesday
Facts!!!! 😄
Word
Y’all are a good match for the shows keep it up fellas I watch all the shows from the original power and the spin-offs y’all killing it!💯
I love that Gianni explains everything to us. Yes Gianni!!
I wanna see Woody McClain, Davinchi from bmf, and the girl that played Liliana on Force
Broo no bs we need Omari Hardwick on here no questions asked, forget the other members, We just need 1 more father and son convo between michael rainy and omari
Micheal and Mekai energy and clothes are marching.
I love watching Raising Kana it defiantly takes me back to my childhood,. I was born in 83 they are representing the 90s well especially with the clothes
So obviously we need omari hardwick & joseph sikora on the show but also.... Paige hurd, diana, proctor, woody etc
So fire that he’s sweating 😂😂😂😂
Nah y’all outta pocket for not giving that man tissue nigga was sweating MAD hard LMAOO
Damn MeKai sweating a storm
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
43:00 That's exactly what I tell people Kanan Starks ultimate revenge on James St.Patrick was turning Tariq St. Patrick essentially into Kanan 2.0...😁😁😁
Michael is laid back so it’s understandable why Gi does most of the talking but they’re still doing An amazing job
It compliment each other tbh not too much of one personality or the other
Balance lol
These Power Podcast Eps are needed for the culture especially while waiting for Power Book 2 and Raseing Kannen Come back Micheal Gianni and Maki Are amazing actors who make it look effortless lowkey we might be looking at the next Tommy Kannen and Ghost right in front of our eyes.Im extremely happy that Gianni took acting class for years to break down how the acting process goes for those of us who don't know the process this podcast is on its way 2 a million subs super lit dope cast
I noticed the mouth movement too on the first episode… fire !
I so love how Brayden breaks down EVERY THING!!! Excellent!
Thank Gooood you guys cleaned up and organized the studio lol. It was killing me in the other episodes. I was like they need comfortable chairs 😂
It's a process. Nothing going to perfect the 1st time.
I actually like the other set up better. Hate brick walls. Couch is fire tho
Please stop cutting each other off and let people finish their thought, these convo's are too good.
Fasho ready for raising kanan season 2 this summer 👀🔥🐐
