What's your favorite part of Power Book II: Ghost?
Sex week 😂
“Ghosts Never die”
The Prince, straight fiyaaa 😭🔥
tariq truly grasping his inner ghost
Tariq in court. Tariq standing by Tommy's car on episode 10.
50 making the hood marvel with power and bmf 🔥🔥🤝
So true
Quite true sir
Difference is Marvel is based on fictional characters. 50 is building something that is based off REAL hood realities. Our lives literally be a movie but we just see it as another story in the hood #WILD
Marvel cinematic universe Power cinematic universe
And killing it
50 cent sounds like a proud father, Listening to the young man speaks.
@D sirono desenuts yup, shame man a lot of great dudes throughout history have been terrible fathers to their actual kids. Go back to Marcus Arelius
@D sirono desenuts who dont kno thats his son like wtf,n u dont kno that man business sheeeesh
@@Ik47bangbang Lmfaoooo 😂😂😂ya need to get out ya feelings(btw I wouldn’t father a kid that is chillin with my enemies either)
😂😂
Proud of Michael Rainey, showin us how a young black man should carry himself
Yeah ok, you should see his ig lives
@@explodev2550 Lol what he be doing?
@@almightyprofessor regular shit idk what this dude saying
@@almightyprofessor he’s just chatting
@@tanookiworr7742 I thought so
"Once he put on some muscles he is gonna be fucking up Michael B Jordan money" - 50Cent on Michael Rainey's future. Hilarious yet hopefully very true.
Agreed
No one ever says these types of things about White entertainers. I get it, when you’re Black, there can only be one at the top?
@@canadamonroe6229 I see where you're coming from but don't think that he meant it that way. I certainly didn't mean it that way when I concurred. It was basically a tongue-in-cheek way of saying that Rainey is on his way to becoming a legitimate A-list leading man in Hollywood, a la MBJ, Chad Boseman, etc.
@@canadamonroe6229 yeah, that's fucked up but true as you said. Like the same with the comedians and singer's. But he gotta get better at acting to get on a michael b Jordan level.
I can’t believe that they didn’t have him immediately put on muscle before the first power but he made absolute sense to me they got a beat this kid up with mediately it changes everything if he put on muscle just imagine that his character becomes something totally different unbelievable
Tommy the only one didn't crack a smile the whole shoot 🤣🤣
Grim reaper😈
He the grim reaper
Lmao cuz he ready for his show fytb lol
Ain’t nothing funny about canceling Christmas
That mans still in character 😂🤣💀
Michael Rainey Jr is such a gifted actor. He's been a great talent even before Power but now the world knows that the bro can really act. I wish him the best in his future endeavors.
@@sabado391 Agreed he was in Barbershop 3 also.
@@sabado391 WHAT DOES HE NEED TO PROVE TO YOU? YOU DO NOT PROVIDE HIS PAYCHECK!!! HATER..
“gifted actor”? Loooooool easy mate
@@NileSWPhotography ARE YOU ONE? SINCE ,you're knocking someone else's opinion!!!
@@sabado391 It wasn't until this comment that you clarified it was your opinion. You initially stated it like a fact. That's the actual problem. Have whatever opinion you want, as long as you can recognize that it's not the end all be all. Just because you watched him, and don't feel that way, doesn't make it a fact.
50 cent is sitting on a fucking goldmine with power and BMF 💯💯💯
50 cent is the goldmine
@@kzakulenga5138 Facts... Dis nigga don't lose
Yeah, they definitely probably gonna give him a massive deal like 100-200 million or something cause his shows are like top 1 and 2 on the entire network Lol
@@readyrose3558 his shows are the sole reason I even watch STARZ
@@cjjohnson3827 facts CJ
50cent: He started of as the lil guy at the back and he was like I am Gonna take over🔥☺️
50 cent mark my words. He will make over 1 billion over the next decade. He's literally making his own lane. Genius!
I say in 5 years
@@Harrizist agreed
A genius at making shows about crack and heroin. Yup a real genius.
@@abstuct1015 always somebody like u ruining everything lmao
@@abstuct1015 he jus making shows about his environment(s), don’t hate player hate the game
Lil ghost is still so young. But he basically grew up on that show though.

I like how 50 speaks life into them! Very dope 💯
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! 👏🏾🐐🔥🎯🎬🍿
Facts all day!
💜💜💟🌱
So Tariq is a lil Lloyd Banks 😄
@@2laughmma383 😂 100%!!! I ain't even gonna lie sometimes i watch Power and i don't know if it's the angles their using but Michael Rainey Jr facial expressions/features remind me of a young Banks! 😂
@@cosignent9851 🤣🤣
Thank u 50 for putting the yung generation on ! Highly appreciated 👌😎🙌🎯
@D sirono desenuts it be like that thou 🤷
You can tell that 50 have genuine love for them all.
Lil ghost gonna make kanan proud
thats gud
This interview had me grinning like a proud mom. I love the evolution of Tariq's character and the relationship with 50 cent. Greatness!!! 💝💝💝
Me to 😅
Yes
I think Michael Rainey also played Ice Cube's son in the first Barber Shop Movie. That's where I first saw him but someone correct me if I'm mistaken🙃
No it was the 3rd Barbershop movie in 2016
It was the third
Uhh I think that was the third movie
Thank you all for correcting me. I thought I'd seen him somewhere before Power. He had long hair In Barber Shop. So cute😎
Dang I forgot he was in a barbershop movie! Lol
50 cent went from
Im trying to get rich
To
I’m trying to make others around me rich
Well done, there’s more success in making other people rich
That’s how a bank is created
Jesus Christ
Facts
U gotta get rich first to be able to bring other people up with u.
Well said!
50 got that BMF pinky ring on.... Dope as hell... I see why Blue hatin on 50 😂😂😂
bleu mad cuz he snitched & it might be in the show lmao. He should be mad at hisself
You gotta just respect how 50 just keeps himself relevant in all spheres
Tommy story gonna be a whole other level, his dad was apart of the mob & Tommy str8 gangsta. Power Universe!! 1st we had Ice Cube making the hits with the movies now we got 50 making these hits with these tv shows.
His story gon take place in present time I think, or right before he came back to kill Tasha so the mob story already over with.
Tommy is representing the white boys in Force. He ran that room in episode 1. The show is 🔥. 50 is really doing his thing with Power Universe.
cool
love 50 or hate him, u gotta respect this guy.
Super dope 50 is literally creating young black stars and even resurrecting old ones💯💪🏽
Tariq plays tf out his character. I love his growth in powerbook 🙌🏾🙌🏾
nice
I can confidently say this is my favorite series of all time. I’m connected and invested while being a New York native, it’s a different level of respect for me! love them 😍❤️
I’m so happy they did this and I knew Omari loved Michael and taught him about acting when I see Tariq I see ghost and it’s just such an amazing storyline and such great actors, producers, and camera man, such a great job from Courtney kemp and 50 cent. Major props to 50, xxl, g-unit, and green light gang. 50 taking over 🖤
The heights that 50 reached in his career is mind blowing. To growing up with nothing to becoming the owner of his own television franchise. Give this man his flowers. His hustle is insane
Tari.."Michael" did a good job in Power. Ive never hated a child actor so much in a show. Hopefully more doors open to show his versatility
My son is not crazy about his character either
I kinda liked that basketball movie he got on Netflix
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
50 the 🐐 give that man his flowers
He really grew up on power!! That’s awesome 👏🏾 now he’s starring on his own show! 🔥
Michael rainey jr gotta be my favorite actor right now, hes been killing it literally.
Thanks so much. I’m so excited seeing him, my favorite Power storyline is his.
Great series! I'm starting to think 50 has a better movie/tv series/ producer catalogue over his music now!

I think you forgot how big 50s music prime was dawg 😂
Calm down buddy not yet but he will
Relax bro
@@te4500 right I’m like nah that’s a reach 50 cent and gunit was a whole era for years!!! His music are literal anthems🔥🔥🔥🙏🏽
You can tell before 50 gave him the script he gave him the "50 Laws of Power"Book
You think so
Tommy looks like it’s Christmas time lol 😂
The story telling is excellent how each show explains a lil more of the back story how it came to be.
It really is amazing seeing him grow up right before our eyes 😍
50 is a visionary mastermind
He really wanted pop smoke on set💫
Loved watching this young man grow up right before our eyes on the TV screen! 🤙🏽
Michael Rainey looks like a young Stuart Scott with them glasses.
50 really out here changing lives. RESPECT!!!
Michael Rainey is a very good actor... I mean in the first Ghost he had people hating his character and now since Hes a main character people is now realize how much of a great actor he is.
I’ve been a power fan since day one.. I love the story lines and all the actors!
cant wrap my head around this guy being 22. still a little kid in my heart
I love this! So inspirational. 50 cent is doing right by lining up all those young black male figures to be upcoming superstars in TV and Film. This IS how you genuinely give back to society. Also let’s not forget the talented and beautiful women part of this project. They deserve a front page cover as well! 😎

No courtney kemp she the creator
@@JP-ex5hg and 50 is the face . Where do you see her at ??
50 is a beast 💯🔥🔥🔥
Only reason why im subscribed 👍🏽
50 Cent always has the baddest beats rocking to his voice, even for an interview. Was vibing while learning
50 cent one of the realest in the game put people in position to eat shine an win salute to all of them💯💯
This great for the culture telling our stories from our perspective. Those really lived it and come from it. 50 didn't grow up on social media, so his memory all of him being that life is crystal clear.
Now he runs television its crazy how he is using his platform to catapult the career of others thats truly amazing
I honestly believe there should be a Power Book VI: the final chapter representing the 6 OG seasons of Power centered around Yas as a high school student. I say that cuz ppl dont realize that the youngest kid is the one to be afraid of. Yas is the one who's most affected by these family's actions. She dont know why or how these things happened nor is she old enough to understand why her family isnt coming back. She dont know why she's left without a mother or father, her sister got murdered, I honestly believe that would be a good show to watch. Because everything keads back to her older brother. He was the reason why Raina got killed, he killed their father, he's the reason why their mother sacrificed herself to keep him out of prison. The end of Book II run, they should lead into her show finding out her brother was the one who took everything away from her. But book II about to get real.
Well...if Tariq gets custody and she ends up around Effie and Diana....who knows....she could take shit to the next level. It looks like they want to expand her character.
Damn man it ain’t all on riq bro there’s more to it then how you put it
You're reaching
@@keffamuoki7552 Right Muoki!🇰🇪

Have to say. I know they are playing serious roles. But their smiles are so refreshing to see. Just radiates the room. Great vibe there..respect.
50 a goat
Michael Rainey you are born with a gift… Stay focused and you are definitely going to be an icon🙏🏽💯❤️
His acting is fantastic !!!
He's the only Conglomerate out of Jay and Puff who really put people of color in a position to win and has always done that since G-Unit, but Fif motivation must be different cause he is the most consistent at creating opportunities for brown people besides Tyler Perry.
Ummm Master P?
@@marilyn1984 Name current acts Master P has put on?

That is a dope photoshoot and 50 is the real plug
Tariq is one of the characters that's been exemplary developed, and this kid has done an amazing job, "you would have realized I am the bad spot... " damn I smiled at that point...
Fifty, keep doing what you doing, much love from Kenya...
Even off the set 50 like Michael personality and they both vibe together very well.....
